Yes, I know he is going to lose to Scorsese.

REMINDER
In case of a tie the polls, the posts below will serve as the final tie breaker !
Have to go with Boyle on this one.
Boy, but I seem to be a fan of the underdogs....I agree, Jean. Scorsese seems to have the advantage here.
Boyle.
Seriously tough one, especially considering how much I've loved Scorsese's work...but I've loved Boyle's work even more.
Never be cruel and never be cowardly. And if you ever are, always make amends.

Danny Boyle.
I had to think about this for a while.
What a no-brainer. Marty.
Marty, without hesitation.

Oh man, these polls are already getting too hard for me
Boyle is one of my personal favorite directors. I love his films. But Scorsese! I feel he's a much better director.
I'll be back in a little bit...
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
I'm going to literally flip a coin for this one...heads boyle, tails scorsese.

Yeah, comparing directors can be hard. I still think the weirdest comparison we've had so far was Del Toro and Howard....you can't get any more opposite than that.

I desperately want to see Sunshine again. The last 20 minutes through me for a loop so I have to check it out again. In top five space movies of the decade, along with Moon and Pandorum imo.

I chose Scorsese. Just cuz. I'm actually glad it's this close though.

28 Days Later, Trainspotting and Millions are some of my favorite films. Voted for Boyle.

I voted Boyle too. Trainspotting was ground breaking, I was blown away by it when it first came out. Much like Pulp Fiction, I think you need to remember the impact these films had on you when you first saw them.
I agree that Trainspotting was groundbreaking... and I love it.
But ... it wasn't more groundbreaking than, say, Taxi Driver. Or Raging Bull.
