1. Tarantino
2. Fincher
3. Scorsese
4. Kubrick
5. Nolan

and my top 10, sorry to be that guy :) in no order are:

Apacolypse now
Pulp Fiction
Mulholland Drive
Goodfellas
Tremors
Big Trouble in Little China
No Country for Old Men
2001: A space odyssey
Inglorious Bastards
Inception

Yea, this would be easier for me if I could just list directors. So many good movies, and they are pretty much from the same directors in many cases.

Guys this game isn't going to sustain itself if you just post your five without participating in the suggestion part.

Yeah.

Well, you'll probably like The Hateful Eight but that's not out yet, so try True Grit I guess. Remake and old movie both good.

Great list, tough call if you've seen most of Gondry, Linklater, those kind of guys. Try The Great Gatsby I guess.

Sin city
Garden State

Drive.

Can someone suggest me now?

Invasion of the body Snatchers (1978) is quite excellent, especially if you enjoyed the Thing.
