    - Alfonso Cuaron, Gravity (while the plot was rote, the direction was sometimes jaw-dropping)
    - Quentin Tarantino, Django Unchained (he's surrounded by yes-men who allow him to over-indulge his ego, but his directing talent can be without question)
    - Paul Greengrass, Captain Phillips (I'm not a huge fan of his style, but in this case it all came together perfectly)
    - Ron Howard, Rush (yes yes, he's a mainstream crowd-pleaser, but in this instance it was a strength. Credit where credit's due)
