Anyone looking forward to the new Tarantino film? :-D

What's your favourite?

If you want, I have a link (or not, depending on who's reading) to the script of 'Django Unchained'. Comes in at 168 pages. I'm yet to read it; have a free evening tomorrow though.

Deathproof was pretty amazing. Definitely underrated/underviewed. It grossed just over £700k in the UK.

Forrest Gump is also an amazing film. Tarantino really got the most out of Hanks for that movie, great directing.

deathproof was the worst film i've ever seen in theaters. no witty dialoge, just shit nobody cares about.

it was an hour and a half of bitches talking. seriously. and not the good kind of talking like jules and vincent, or mr pink and mr white. then when snake plissken is supposed to murder the fuck out of those cunts they somehow manage to kill him and ruin the movie.

oh but that one bitch actually stayed tied to the hood of a car while they were driving

i thought inglorious bastards was gonna be epic but it was merely alright. iunno i guess i hype myself up on tarantino so much because i can watch pulp ficiton, four rooms and reservoir dogs over and over and not get bored.

I know i'm alone in this but honestly think Inglorious Basterds was his best movie. They're all great movies but there's just something about Inglorious Basterds that is so perfect to me.

yea there was actually nothing wrong with inglorious bastards. it was done very well. inglorious bastards is like brian aragon in that it's TOO perfect.

I loved Inglorious Basterds. I'll catch a lot of heat for this, but can somebody please explain to me why Pulp Fiction has this legendary status? I've only seen it once and thought it was alright, did I miss something or what? Of his films I've only seen those two along with Reservoir Dogs and the Kill Bills and liked all of those more than Pulp Fiction.

i like pulp fiction because it's pretty neat how all the stories interlink. it's pretty well written and the dialogue is pretty memorable. you can watch it a bunch and catch new things everytime (like if you listen carefully when bruce goes back to get his watch there's police radio in the background and they're talking about how two people stole a dance trophy from jack rabbit slims the night before). the order of events isn't SO apparent but there's hints to how they occur.

iunno maybe i just watched it a bunch and a few times with commentary.

I believe that's Robert Rodriquez. Tarantino just has a part in it.

I liked Pulp Fiction and Reservoir dogs the most. Jackie Brown was ok. The Kill Bills were ok as well.

But after that it he repeats himself. He has to live with the fact that his style is ripped off and therefore overplayed. If he wants to proof himself as an all round director he should do something in a different direction and pull it of.

Pulp Fiction for sure, can watch it countless times.
Inglorious Basterds was awesome too, Pitt's and Waltz's characters make the film for me.
I really enjoyed Death Proof too, may have something to do with my love for fast, loud cars.

A lot of people rate pulp fiction because of the unconventional structure and unique dialogue. And because of the gritty plot.

It basically broke a lot of the rules unlike any other film before it; and from a new director. It also established many of his signature shots and techniques.

Another cool thing about it is that you can't pinpoint what decade its set in.

Hmmm Take a guess? I have Pulp fiction in the blu ray and the soundtrack in my car...

Interesting I took my elderly mum to see Kill Bill 1 & 2 at the movies for Mothers day with one of my siblings and she said it was her favourite film because a women kicked some ass for once.

Inglorious Bastards had so many Lol moments, went with some friends to the movies and we were the only ones laughing at the scalping scenes....plus brad pitts attampt at speaking italian..

He wrote True Romance......I really digged that....

Deathproof was great because Rosario Dawson and muscle cars are hawt...

Even the hated on Jackie Brown was great after a third viewing......the music....the homage to crime films of the 70's..


Yeah Tarintino is annoying.....but the guy is good at what he's done and he's not Jerry Bruchiemer

pulp fiction and true romance are my favorites

It's interesting, though not puzzling, that True Romance is the screenplay he sold to get his name out there. Not puzzling because it required a much bigger budget than resorvier dogs, interesting because its an excellent story and I wonder how he felt selling off one of his babies.

I read a book on it, he needed the money and was okay with the way it was directed. But I think he wanted Clarences character to die as his script stated. The studio wanted a happy ending.

He also wrote natural Born killers and wasn't pleased the way stone handled it, even though stone did a really good job.

i hear he punched Stone in the mouth for this.

I really like Inglorious Basterds. But, the scene in the bar drags on far too long and I usually turn it off at that point.

kill bills were way overrated. i think the music is the best part of that movie. i enjoy them but not as good as people make them to be in my opinion. inglorious bastards is amazing too.

Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs are his best movies (in my opinion).
And I really love Tarantinos part in Four Rooms - I love Tim Roth in that roll, is acting is superb!
The rest is also very good but not on the same level.

I guess I like Inglorious Basterds better than the kill bills - Waltz is brilliant in that movie, BINGO! *G*

I watched the Kill Bills really late, last year in fact, and i was blown away by them. Seriously so impressed. Did not expect it at all. I watched them back to back, though I didn't intend to, it was just that the first one was so good, I had do do it.

I've seen every film he's directed or written. Not a Tarantino film but True Romance was based on a Tarantino screen play, and it's my favourite film he's worked on. The screen play is also based on his first student film, one that he lost to a fire in an editing suite.

You're the 2nd person I've heard that and it still blows my mind.. The entire scene is so intense and well put together, probably my favorite in the entire movie.

But he's still great at what he's doing. That's part of what made "Inglorious Bastards" so wonderful; it was basically a Tarantino self-wuck fest.

I never finished Jackie Brown. Inglourious Basterds was good, as well as Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction and Deathproof

Seriously, every little detail in that scene is just incredible. I love when the one guy orders the glasses the wrong way and it sets off the whole scene.

The Kill Bill movies were my favorite, separately they're both good movies but together they are fucking amazing. Gotta cop them joints on Blu Ray.
