I might add Marc Forster to the list. I’ve enjoyed most of his films and consider them to be technically astute with solid narratives, but I can’t say I’ve seen anything that particularly links his films together or noticed any visuals stamps. And, at least with Stranger than Fiction, it felt more like Forster was channeling Spike Jonze/Michel Gondry. It’ll be interesting to see if Bond 22 looks like a good imitation of Martin Campbell.

As an aside, has anyone ever heard a solid argument against the auteur theory?
