Joel Schumacher, Tim Burton, and Michael Bay (except for 'The Island' which I thought was pretty good) come to mind. I want to put Rob Reiner in there but I loved 'Stand By Me' too much to list him.
Okay I'll spare myself from putting McG or Uwe Boll on here because they make terrible movies and I'm quite sure they know they make ty movies.
My most hated director has to be Cameron Crowe. I don't like any of the movies he's made..not Jerry Maguire, Almost Famous, Elizabethtown, Vanilla Sky..I think the only decent thing he's done was Say Anything and writing Fast Times.
Other than Say Anything and his writing of Fast Times at Ridgemont High which he didn't direct thankfully, the rest of his career is crap all his movies are overblown pretentious garbage.

Almost Famous is one of the best movies of the last ten years. But I'm not really a fan of his other work, including Fast Times.
Michael Bay and Roland Emmerich would be easy choices, but my pick is Tony Scott. Almost of his movies (especially the ones he's done since Crimson Tide) are over-stylized to the point that it takes away from the story. His choices of music seem like they were made by an 8th grade stuck in the 90's (this is a tense scene... how about... Nine Inch Nails! Yeah!)
Rob Cohen for making those piece of Fast and Furious bull movies.
Tarantino
blood and gore gimmick ty movies.
I don't think I hate any directors, but there are some whose work I dislike more than others. And even the ones I'd say I dislike the most, have one or 2 films that I love. So taking into account their general body of work and my personal taste in films, my list would have to include Sam Raimi, John Woo and M. Night Shyamalan.
I've never seen anyone with so many insanely stupid opinions on nearly every topic.
And since I'm not a LOTR fan, I'm not a huge Peter Jackson fan either.
Who ever directed new moon.
He has quite the bevy.
Oliver Stone, M. Night Shyamalan, Jean Luc-Godard and Bernardo Bertolucci. Add Danny Boyle (I'm not including guys like, say, Brett Ratner, that nobody considers good directors).
Werner Herzog, for that stupid movie he made about that asshat that got himself, his girlfriend, and the asshats's beloved bears killed, because he was an asshat.
Excellent choice, this guy is now entering his second decade of not making anything but crap.
JFK was his last good movie. He should just give up the ghost and go get a job as an editor for the National Enquirer.
Also a good one, this guy started out looking like a genius of rare caliber and has quickly revealed himself to be a one trick pony whose every move can be predicted.M. Night Shyamalan
Really?? He got Eva Green to walk around naked for 2 hours. That alone is enough to put him in who's your most fav director thread.
I give directors these days a pass because humans have been making films for so long there really isn't any brave new ground to break anymore. We've seen it all before so nothing is going to really amaze us.
Brett Ratner. X Men III, Rush Hour Trilogy, Red Dragon, Money Talks, The Family Man, etc. All giant turds in my opinion.
Joel Schumacher. St. Elmo's Fire, The Lost Boys and Flatliners don't make up for Batman Forever, Batman And Robin, 8MM, Bad Company, Phonebooth, or The Number 23.
M. Night Shamalamadingdong. The only movie I liked from him was The Sixth Sense. Everything after that have been .
Peter Jackson. I hated The Lord Of The Rings. All of them. I can't even read the books anymore because of them. I'm stuck with Elijah Wood and that nozzle Orlando Bloom in my head when I try.
Barry Sonnenfeld. Once again, a good movie (Get Shorty) doesn't make up for all the crap he's done (Wild Wild West, the Addams Family movies and RV).
M night by far is the worst.. besides the 6th sense the rest are complete garbage.
I guess M. Night is pretty bad. I liked the first LOTR movie. also, to the OP, I thought Almost Famous was good too.
simpleton's wouldn't understand, so I don't judge you, don't worry.
spielberg after killing AI
The person that directed Too Wong Foo Thanks For Everything Julie Newmar.
i don't think m night shamalamiham is a good director, but unbreakable was a decent movie
Man, how can anyone like the books and hate the movies? In a rare occurrence, the movies were actually better than the books!
Gore Verbinski - for giving us that steaming pile of elephant crap, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. Your owe me $8 Gore Verbinski!!!!!
