I think Kubrick is the most interesting director of all time. Never made a bad film really, though admittedly his masterpieces came early. Those in the top half of these rankings are all classics. 2001 is ranked #2 after Godfather now on all polls combined as best film of all time. In my opinion it's better, more visionary and artistic, and also had more influence on the film industry. Godfather merely continued a long line of gangster films, with more artistry. 2001 caused an resurgence of the entire science fiction genre, with Spielberg, Lucas, Cameron, and Ridley Scott to soon follow.
