Levy, I voted for Weir. Does that taint it for you?

Sorry, Lucas is great in many things, directing is not one of them though Yeah, I see a lot of similarities between this list and best film list, even though they shouldn't be, as films like Matrix and Star Wars are not really director's films. There are some big distinctions that people are not making.

I just saw a Beowulf TV spot and realized Zemeckis hasn't been named yet.

I believe Robert Zemeckis died in 1990. Not sure who this other guy is.
