Spielberg's against the sunset shots (seen in Raiders, Saving Private Ryan, E.T).

Kubrick's long ,drawn out scenes at a table.

P.T Anderson's epic steadicam shots.

Spielberg

Father - Son immitating.

Jaws- Chief Brodey folds his hands, his son does the same. E.T.- Eliot scrathes his nose, E.T. does the same.
Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom- Indy folds his hands, Shortround does the same; Indy punches to the giant immitate Shortrounds punches to the prince.
Jurassic Park- Tim does everything in likness to Dr. Grant.
Catch Me if You Can- Leo immitates his Father's actions and phrases to survive on his own.

Those are just the immitations but it is in nearly every one of his film. I think it shows that Spielberg admired his father very much.
