I completely forgot that I made this post. A whole year ago!! I've gotta find the poll that you're talking about. I didn't know they did one. Probably a real long time ago, huh?
Your list is awesome. About a quarter of them I don't even know, although I recognize the names of some of the films they did. A year ago I picked Robert Altman as number one, although I really don't have just one single favorite. I would probably still say him.
It wasn't all that long ago. Not in the last year but I doubt much longer than 2 years ago when we did it. I could be wrong. Wish you'd have been here for it. Altman's low ranking on that list is a travesty. Could have used you to boost him to a more realistic position.
Didn't realize this was an old post. I guess the guy above me revived it.
