Mr Plainview Hahah

cus now he's a "man"

Shadows Jackie Brown being his most reserved film

What happened to her screenplay

All of this sounds annoying and pathetic

@@gheetuio8640 it ended up in the trash along with her tits and cunt

@@Louie_The_Dago who’s annoying and pathetic, the visionary director or the whiny white guy arguing to a blank wall in KZfaq comment sections.

Didnt you ask why she was sleepin in?

Not many filmmakers around that are making truly passionate work, that take no bullshit when it comes to their ideas. Hes a dying breed

Well, Tarkovsky only made 7 and is highly regarded as one of the absolute masters. Doesn't matter making more or less films if you're truly great.

I’ve been a fan since Reservoir Dogs but what QT has done really well is know how to sell his brand of film, which is a mix of low brow exploitation movie making with Melville and Leone influences. His movies are fun to watch and they’re a clever mashup of lesser known references. But I wouldn’t consider him as one of the greats because his writing is so blunt. It draws so much attention to itself that it often is a deterrent. Sometimes it’s spot on and perfect and other times it just doesn’t know when to ease off and stop sounding so forced. Death Proof and Hateful 8 are the most painful to rewatch. I always skip the motel portion of Pulp Fiction. Even in OUATIH, the film is pretty great until the cheesy Manson family scene in the car that and that clunky dialog and delivery kicks in. And the ending is such a teenage boy fantasy that it kind of sours the film a bit. And Pacino’s dialog of how he watches the separate movies and shows on very distinct media is so dorky and in love with itself that even the great Pacino sort of ends up looking like a buffoon. All of his films are flawed by there are enough moments that stand out to give them a very distinct presence. In his latest two, it’s just felt like diminishing returns and I no longer hold his films in such high esteem. Even Malick isn’t immune from finding the right balance of inventiveness and recycling. I don’t think QT is in the same category of the film greats but he’s become an example of a guy who makes very specific films that earn a ton of attention because he knows how to market independent films like comic books. It’s fun, the films are good, some are great, and most have some memorable scenes, but overall, his films are not as exceptional.

@@djstarsign I think it’s just a matter of preference I disagree with every point you make

One of the greatest directors of all time. They'll be studying him for a thousand years.

Haha he was spot on too

Did you see his interview after PF came out? I think it was better than this one in my opinion.

minkymott what is PF?

Pulp Fiction.

link me baby... thanks :)

and then he went hyper QT afterward with kill bill interviews and beyond

Yeah I just watched this and this part made me keel over. He was so fuckig right lmao. Called the heck out of that.

he said n**** 50:11 . wow hahah

Surprise surprise, there was a time before the bullshit restrictions on speech, though, etc. as we currently experience them today. It was a much more honest world.

He looks much younger in the 1994 interview with Charlie Rose, it's on KZfaq somewhere.

Old guys get cranky right health pornkems

@@NickFouladi11 because he was a man now lol

Hes calmer because he respects the interviewer.

On what list ?

very few people understand that and I'm glad I'm one of 'em

he had a great point until he didnt acknowledge the fact Spike Lee can't use kike in movies as much he uses the n word, it IS a double standard and the truth is even though Tarantino obviously isn't a racist, if he was he'd still be able to do it. That's what Spike Lee was saying basically, that black people don't have the power to control how they're treated by society in movies or otherwise.

@@liban9984 When you say that he can't use the word kike, "as much as" he uses the n-word. What exactly do you mean by that? It can't be literally, because, as far as I'm aware , there is no set limitation on free speech. Well "some", but not in this context; not in movie-making or any other similar art form, anyway. (Maybe I'm just unaware of it, though, so if so, please try and help enlighten me.) So if I take it "figuratively", I still don't really understand, no matter how I try to approach looking at it either... There are black directors, and there are white directors, Spike Lee and Tarantino, the examples chosen here. Both have made popular movies with black actors dealing with the topic of racism in their own, different ways. (The resulting common goal, hopefully, (of course), is exposing the overwhelmingly negative aspects of racial inequality(ies), in hopes of making for a better world, by setting us on a path towards that of an 'actual' state of equality.) "I think" what you're trying to say, is that Lee is working from a different set of rules than Tarantino is, that it's because Lee is black and Tarantino is white, and that the rules vary because it's "society itself" that's dictating our own playbook and it's rules in motion picture making(?)

His point there was, why is Spike Lee getting mad at HIM? If his right as a writer is being violated, he should be mad at the people violating his rights, not at the people who are exercising that right. If anything Tarantino should be source of inspiration to him (and all writers).

We are quite distant now from the time the interview was recorded. Tarantino is sincere and his proximity with black culture made his vision stands out particulary well. But would it have been the same if his was not so close to black culture? Spike Lee paranoid distrust is excusable.. would be excusable if he was blameless? Using the n word is very problématic because the word is toxic. It is self demeaning. If I was a boss in a company in the us I would ask my employees to put à dollar in the swear words box everytime somebody says the word.. Beside Tarantino is not a racist that’s why he can say the word as a writer… I would frown upon a person calling my mum, my sister, my wife or my daughter a bitch and even more if they were blacks. You can’t feed people the same shit all the Time because they certainly developp a taste for it… And it is not quite fair to say that there is a double standar a reverse racism. That could be somtimes depending the person you have in front of you BUT is not like the N word in the end? Last but not least.. we never use the n word like many blacks would never use the n word. Who would give his money to a rapper that promotes gangsta rap? Who would gladly suffer fools ? Cinema is about sincerity that’s what Tarrantino claim to deliver and in the réal world we still have to look who is making the claim?

He's not a great actor. He's a superb director.

ummmmm you're saying Charlie is a genius?

@@BookClubDisaster Yeah, not a genius, but a smart and CURIOUS man. It's the latter that made him good. He liked to figure things out.

Agreed. Charlie Rose was himself highly intelligent.

You grew up

It's one of his best films, yet sadly neglected because it isn't as flashy or the most popular choice when talking about the man in question. But if you give it a fair shot and look beneath the surface, you're gonna find that it's one of his more mature works, while still being Tarantino as fuck!

Maybe you were younger when you saw it for the first time. Maturity brings about different ideas and appreciation for the little things in life.

your taste got worse

That's because it's understated, just like the character Lewis. Good things appreciate.

Oliver Welch just because you aren't one, doesn't mean there is none

Oliver Welch what is cowardly about calling something/someone genius? genius is a word that denotes extraordinary creativity and originality (look at its Latin and Greek roots). Is calling someone creative a cowardly thing to do? i don't understand you

Oliver Welch humility? please explain what this has to do with humility

Oliver Welch "labeling people as words"? jesus christ, what is your problem. Are you one of those people who is "offended" by compliments? like those cringy "feminists" and "social justice warriors"? you can have your opinion, of course, but i would really like to understand it

Yeah, I love his movies. He is a master of cinematic dialogue.

Lol😂 true

hahahaha

No, it wasn't.

@@Johnconno I'm not some great film critic, but I admire the way this film draws out the motivations and capabilities of so many characters in one movie. It's almost weird how unique yet approachable the characters are, how much of the characters are shown so efficiently. Then the way the dialog draws you in. I don't understand how it was done, really like magic to me.

Jackie Brown a very good movie. But it's the 'least good' QT movie. I say least good because when you say worst people think you're saying 'bad.' And I don't count Death Proof because QT never would have made that if not for Robert Rodriguez bugging him.

@@Druffmaul death proof > Django unchained

Did you enjoy Tenet though?

Not sure how he comes across as uneducated. He did mispronounce a few words, but definitely he has a high IQ.

The fact he revived Travolta's career and would do the same for Greer and Forrester.

something's weird with his hair here

J M most values and virtues change up after 20 years

I mean, both Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio have reputations as once-great actors who have faded out of the acting scene and involved themselves in other things, and I think it suited the main themes of OUATIH very well... you're welcome to disagree though

Huh? So because he has a longer list, he's not allowed to hire whoever he wants on that list? Um no, that's silly. Leo and Brad were on his list, he decided to choose them this time.

@@someguy9893 Leo has always chosen challenging work. He never faded.

Longer time breastfeeding as children.

You weren’t paying attention

Exactly, he's a hillarious character, like when he gets the telephone cord tangled up. So funny, and the opposite of what we were used to seeing him do at that time.
