So the reason for the asterisk is that I realize the only Oscars that actually go to him are those for Best Director and, when he also produces, Best Picture. Follow-up qualification: I'm only looking at movies he directed; so if he produced a movie but didn't also direct it and it won Best Picture, I didn't include that in my calculations.
With that said, only looking at theatrical feature releases, Spielberg has directed 29 movies. In any category whatsoever - from Best Picture and Best Director to Best Sound Editing and Best Visual Effects - those 29 movies have together earned 32 Oscars. And that includes his dearth of getting 0 between Saving Private Ryan and Lincoln (AI, Minority Report, Catch Me If You Can, The Terminal, War of the Worlds, Munich, IJ: Crystal Skull, Adventures of Tintin, and War Horse).
So, with this loose definition, do any other directors have more Oscars than movies?
