I would have liked Verhoeven if he wasnt such a dumbfuck. I should have never watched the special features for Starship Troopers.

THe only director who makes me want to watch his films is Tarantino.

I don't really pay mind to other directors.

I like Jean-Pierre Melville his movies are awesome for oldies. His films influenced both John Woo and Quinton Tarantino along with Michael Mann. If ya get a  chance watch Le Samouri. That dude personifies assassins in the world of film making.

Sergio Leone.  When I saw the Punisher I could tell right off the bat that the director was influenced by Sergio Leone.  Then I watched the DVD with commentary and Leone was someone he kept bringing up.
