To measure the quality of a movie, many times not only look at the state of the film content, but also look at the box office performance of the film in the global market, of course, we say that the box office performance of a movie often depends not only on the actors and scripts, but also on the director of the film.
Obviously, a good, high-grossing movie must be inseparable from a good director!
So, do you know who are the top 10 film directors in today's global box office rankings?
Don't worry ~ look down (the data is as of 2019, there is a floating error):
10th place: Robert Zemeckis, $4,256.5 million;
As an American director, Robert Zemeckis began to direct musical family dramas in 1978 and officially entered the show business circle, and after that, he also directed the king of science fiction in the field of science fiction, "Back to the Future".
Moreover, Robert Zemeckis himself is not a kind of director whose subject matter has gone black, and the subsequent director's "Forrest Gump" is also a classic of the king's explosive magnitude, which has won the Oscar for best original screenplay and best director.
As of 19 years, Robert Zemeckis has directed 19 films with a box office of 4.2 billion+.
9th place: Tim Burton, $4,328.7 million;
The same generation of famous directors, for the name Tim Burton you may not be familiar with, but many people have definitely seen or heard of his classic work "Edward Scissorhands", and before this movie, as early as 1989, Tim Burton has directed a version of "Batman", in the market situation of that year, this movie also got 500 million US dollars at the box office, with remarkable results.
Also as of 19 years, Tim Burton has also directed 19 films, earning 4.3 billion+ dollars at the box office!
8th place: Christopher Nolan, $4,754.8 million;
I believe that for every fan who likes science fiction movies, they should be familiar with the name of "Nolan" god, in the hands of Christopher Nolan, there are many quite classic science fiction masterpieces born, which from the "Memory Fragments" in 2000 to the later "Batman Dark Knight" trilogy, "Inception", "Interstellar" and other works, almost Nolan's subconscious has been engraved in the bones of many fans.
However, before "Creed", as Nolan's new film, it was also a rare embarrassment to hit the street, but compared with many of Nolan's works in the past, a mistake almost did not cause any impact.
7th place: David Yates, $6.005 billion;
David Yates, the director who is ranked seventh on the list, believes that many fans who love magic works should be more familiar, yes, David Yates is also the director of the "Harry Potter" series, but it should be noted here that David Yates is not the director at the beginning of the "Harry Potter" series!
In fact, David Yates only took over the series from the fifth Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, but the results of the directing were obviously easy to see and the praise was continuous.
As of 2019, David Yates has only directed 7 works in total, but the box office performance is 6 billion + US dollars!
6th place: James Cameron, $6,138.9 million;
Among the world's famous directors, James Cameron may be one of the big directors that many fans know earlier, from "Piranha" in 1981 to the "Terminator" series in 1981, to "Titanic" in 1997, which broke the global film history box office record, and then "Avatar", which broke his own film history box office record.
Almost every work is a classic of the classics, and as of 19 years, James Cameron has directed a total of 9 films, but the cumulative box office has reached 6.1 billion + US dollars.
5th place: Michael Bay, $6,456.0 million;
Also a generation of famous directors, Michael Bay has been directing his first film "Jedi X-Men" since 1994, which has attracted much attention, among which "The End of the World" has won the 25th Saturn Award for Best Director.
Then there is the "Transformers" series of movies that countless fans are quite familiar with, as of 19 years, Michael Bay has directed a total of 13 movies, with a cumulative box office of 6.4 billion + US dollars.
4th place: Peter Jackson, $6,538.7 million;
When it comes to Peter Jackson, many fans automatically think of the epic magic genre of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and now the Hobbit series.
It can be said that in the minds of many fans, there has always been a place for Peter Jackson, no way, the "Lord of the Rings" series is too classic, and as of 2019, Peter Jackson has directed a total of 13 movies, with a total box office of 6.4 billion + US dollars!
2nd-3rd place: Russo brothers, $6.741 billion;
Nowadays, I believe that many Marvel fans should be familiar with the Russo brothers, it can be said that as a relatively rare brother partner director group, the Russo brothers (Joe Russell + Anthony Russell) have successively directed Marvel's "American Team 2", "American Team 3", "Reunion 3", "Reunion 4".
Obviously, not counting their other works, the Marvel wind blown by these Marvel movies around the world alone has made them on the top of the list, and as of 19 years, the Russo brothers have accumulated more than 6.7 billion + DOLLARs at the box office.
1st place: Steven Spielberg, $10,122.9 million;
Obviously, as a ceiling figure in the film directing world, Steven Spielberg's positioning I don't think I need to say more, from the Jaws series to the Raiders of the Lost Ark series to the Alien ET, Jurassic Park series, as well as Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan and so on.
Many of Steven Spielberg's works are almost a lot of fans from childhood to see the big, which is not to mention the previous "Ready Player One" and other works, therefore, for many fans, Steven Spielberg's name is almost heard from a young age, its dominance in the directing industry, needless to say, is also the only director who has directed 33 works before 19 years ago, with a box office of more than 10 billion US dollars!
