Andy Warhol and Alfred Hitchcock
Similar to the last poll in 2009, but at the top Hitchcock lost 2 titles down to 14, Godard dropped 4 films to 12 - they were tied last time. Scorsese obviously picked up Shutter Island and jumped up a little in count, as Bergman also lost a couple. Kubrick's 11 films represent his ENTIRE filmography! That's the most amazing feat on this list, plus he has 6 in the top 100, easily the most of any director.
