Only ones I've seen 10+ from:
Steven Spielberg - 18
Alfred Hitchcock - 18
David Cronenberg - 13
Woody Allen - 13
John Carpenter - 12
Tim Burton - 11
Wes Craven - 11
Akira Kurosawa - 10
David Lynch - 10
Stanley Kubrick - 10
Haven't really tried to concentrate on any filmographies yet. I had planned to, but got sidetracked doing other things. As I've said before, I'm not very consistent so there's only a couple of directors where I've liked the majority of what I've seen. So I never really get an urge to check out the rest of a director's filmography.

I don't know how you're counting your directors, but here's how I did it in OpenOffice Calc:
1) Export IMDb ratings
2) Open in OpenOffice Calc
3) In the separator field make sure "Comma" is selected and that character set is UTF-8, then click OK
4) Select all directors, e.g. click the first director, scroll down, hold shift and click the last director
5) Select menu Data -> DataPilot -> Start...
6) Make sure Current selection is selected, then click OK
7) There's a button with a director's name, drag 'n drop it to the Data field and double-click it and select Count and then click OK
8) Drag 'n drop the same button to the Row field
9) Click More and check Ignore empty rows and uncheck Total columns
10) Change 'Results to' to new sheet
11) Click OK
12) Select the B column by clicking it
13) Select menu Data -> Sort...
14) Click Extend selection
15) Select Sort by Column B and in descending order
16) Click OK

I use my spreadsheet to calculate mine. I've finally reached 20 with one director: Alfred Hitchcock. Not even that much of a fan
In total, I have 12 directors where I've seen 10+. Stupid low numbers

Hitchcock, with 41.
I don't want to look up my stats now, but I guess I've watched less than 20 of the next guys.
Reason is, Hitch is the only director whose filmography I've actively quested. Was worth it too.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
I saw all of the films directed by them, so probably Coen bros, after them Bergman comes second I think.
Don't have a spreadsheet or anything handy to check, but I'm pretty sure Hitchcock comes first with 17 films seen. Carpenter probably comes second, seen 13 of his films. Then don't really know. I don't think there are many more (if any) of whose (feature) films I've seen even a two-digit number.

Alfred Hitchcock 17
Ingmar Bergman 16
My father didn’t have the skill of a professional cameraman. The result? Avant-garde cinema.

Spielberg is the largest director's catalog that I have covered, but haven't completed (20/29). I am actually one film short of seeing every Robert Rodriguez film (shorts and features).
I didn't count. I let criticker do that. When I looked at my director stats, I ignored the top with directors of who I saw (almost) only shorts. I just forgot the few shorts by Hitchcock.Knaldskalle on Dec 28 2013, 12:05:18 PM wrote:Impossible.joachimt on Dec 28 2013, 02:20:20 AM wrote:Not counting shorts...

It comes with this:

Beautiful. Simply beautiful.
I thought I remembered you saying something about not using Excel, after you posted that handwritten note about top tens a few days ago. Some were astonished, that you did that list by hand. I guess I didn't remember it well.
