If you want shock value you could read about how slaves and indigenous peoples in Africa were ACTUALLY being dealt with. There is some shock value in that, I promise you.

 

Maybe we could see Tarantino put his talent to good use and give us a proper film about it instead of the self indulgent vanity projects he's churning out at the moment.

 

Instead we'd probably get a comedy remake of Goodbye Uncle Tom.

[Ted]

Death Proof's one of the worst films I've ever seen. Self indulgent bollocks from start to finish. Good job Planet Terror was even worse, as I reckon he'd have got the hammering he deserved if it weren't for that shite.

[Ted]

"Alright, Leo, I'm Christophe Waltz. You got a slave called Broomhilda?"

 

"Yeah, man."

 

"I'll give you a few hundred for her".

 

"Sound"

 

*Christophe takes said tart back to Jamie Foxx who he left out of sight so as not to compromise the deal*

OK, so we dropped the racism and sexism thing and it eventually boils down to taste - which is completely fine btw. But I don't argue taste - unless I'm drunk enough. And I'm not. Yet.

[George Costanza]

 

the fact that Christophe Waltz was the best part of inglorious bastards,

 

anyone arguing against this is an idiot.  Good film imo and Waltz performance was absolute top quality

[Paul]

1. Pulp Fiction

2. Reservoir Dogs

3. Kill Bill Vol 1

4. Kill Bill Vol 2

5. Jackie Brown

6. Inglorious Basterds

7. Django Unchained

9. The Hateful 8

10. Death Proof

 

If I'm slotting in films he was involved in writing but didn't direct, I'd put True Romance at the top and From Dusk Til Dawn after Kill Bill Vol 1.

[Ted]

No Jackie Brown at all, Paul?

[Carvalho Diablo]

Kundun.

 

One of my favourite films and one of Scorcese's best, about the rebirth of my mate, The Dalai Lama and Tibet's continued struggle against Chinese expansionism.

 

Incredible soundtrack and beautiful cinematography; hard to fathom how a man who crafted brilliant and bloody masterpieces like Raging Bull and Taxi Driver could also be responsible for two of the most love-filled and wonderful religious film ms ever made, in The Last Temptation Of Christ and Kundun.

 

9/10 Incredible film.

[Frankenhooker]

Personally, I think Jackie Brown is his best film, certainly his most mature. I don't think much of Tarantino because I've seen it all before, as most exploitation fans from the 70s and 80s have.

 

His Django film, while technically better, isn't as enjoyable as Corbucci's from the 1960s.

Our Day Out

 

No idea why i wanted to watch this again, but there you go.

 

3/10  I am too young for any of it to be nostalgic. Other than school trips and arsehole teachers like.

[Pureblood]

I have no desire to watch any Tarantino movies.  Reservoir Dogs is excellent and the one I've watched the most.  For some reason I gave Pulp Fiction 9.5/10 on this thread the last time I watched it in 2009, I think I was very drunk that night.  I'm downgrading it to 7/10 as although it's very well made it has poor replay value.  Where's the "wow" factor the third or fourth time around?  Kill Bill 2 was okay.  Jackie Brown wasn't.  After Kill Bill 2 I gave up on Quentin.  

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Poor replay value. You saucy lot.

It's a classic. Yet you're right - the nostalgic, come melancholy side of it does sway some - but robbing a goat and snake(is there a penguin involved?) from a zoo, in any era, is a class act, lets be honest about it... written by Willy Russell no less.

The lad gets thrown in the penguin enclosure but they dont rob one. They just robbed the goat, cockerel, rabbits and snake.

On the topic of Quentin Tarantino and whether he's racist or not, I give you "Quentin Tarantino is bad at talking to black people":

 

[Paul]

No Jackie Brown at all, Paul?

D'oh.

[VladimirIlyich]

I thought Kill Bill was shite. Not my cup of tea at all.

That's so cringy it's unreal.

[Stickman]

The Wave 6/10 Norwegian Tsunami disaster movie....not bad although it does the disaster scenario by numbers...

 

Expert who looks like a rock star, check

No one believes him, check

Think of the tourism, check

Family problems, check  

etc etc

[Stickman]

The Secret in Their Eyes 3/10 fucking awful why do Hollywood have to remake everything, and I've seen more sexual chemistry between Norris and Rita in Corrie than between Kidman and Chiwetel Ejiofor

 

The original Argentinian movie is on BBC this Saturday/Sunday which gets an 8/10

[Dr Nowt]

Have kept seeing the title among new releases on something which definitely isn't Kodi and hoping it wasn't an inevitably shit remake.

 

The original is a superb film.

[Stu Monty]

Just watched the Culture High documentary on Netflix.

 

Quite a well put together piece that catalogues all the reasons why US society is fucked and paid for; through the story of the prohibition of weed.

[Hooch]

Glad we've all agreed Tarantino is a jabroni.

Totally agree that the original Argentinian film is excellent.

Hollywood films are at a big low at the moment,they are being churned out like cows giving milk. Unfortunately most of them are coming out of a cow's arse.
