Pan's Labyrinth is when I first became aware of him but The Shape of Water is what made me pay attention. Then came Disco and I was like, wait, that can't be the same Doug Jones... But it was! I didn't know his age, though, that's even more wild. I don't follow Disco either but I am curious to see him as himself, so I may check that out.
I'm not good with director names either but there are a few I watch out for and I'm trying to pay more attention to it lately. Direction can have such a huge impact on the story and characters, plus some directors are prolific enough that you can get a decent idea of what to expect based on the kind of project they like to do.
