Kubrick is one for me - 2001 and Barry Lyndon are firmly my top 2... but after that my ranking is constantly in flux.
Cuarón is another - I'm not sure if I've even decided what film of his is my favorite... some days it's Children of Men, other days it's Y tu mamá también or Roma.
Ang Lee would be another.... so I guess for me it's often directors with very eclectic bodies of work. And in the case of Kubrick, it's not just that he's made so many different types of films across genres, but so many of them are all-time great.

futuretrunks probably tries to rank PTA films and then rage quits. To be fair, this happens to me too, just not for the same reason.

Chabrol who had 2 amazing runs (68-71 and 88-95) and a seperate ton of superb films - several other masterpieces arguably - that are representative of him outside of those 2 runs......Les Bonnes Femmes, Violette Nozière, The Bridesmaid, Une partie de plaisir, Merci pour le chocolat spanning 50 years etc.

futuretrunks probably tries to rank PTA films and then rage quits. lol, funny, but no. 1. Boogie Nights 2. Punch-Drunk Love 3. Hard Eight / Sydney 4. There Will Be Blood 5. Phantom Thread 6. Magnolia 7. Inherent Vice (and I don't wanna hear any shit about this; I loved the book) I find Spielberg very hard to rank, as I think he and Hitchcock made the most very good to good movies, so their mid-section is 20-30 deep.
