Those are the only people I am psyched for each new movie these days. But of course, can't forget about -

David Fincher, James Cameron, Sam Raimi, Chris Nolan, the Wachowskis, Tarantino, Eastwood, Peter Jackson, Bryan Singer...of course I'll think of more in ten seconds but I'm not leaving this window open all night.
