I would have voted for the director who I'v never heard of, as being the "overrated one", because I avoid those types of films like wuchereria bancrofti, but there was no "select multiple" feature for the poll.
I don't ever recall seeing a film directed by Michael Mann, Woody Allen, Ridley Scott, David Lynch, David Lean, Mike Nichols, and maybe, just maybe, Martin Scorsese.
It's a process of elimination. Either all those above are overrated in my book, or both Hitchcock and Tarantino are overrated because I can actually name films those two were present and accounted for in the director's chair. (or, it means I don't watch nearly enough films to know, or care too much about, a particular director's style, or penchant for angels, or explosions.)
