AxlisOld Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Been really into Kill Bill lately. Vol 1 & 2 were intended to be one film, but no one wants to sit in a theater for 4 and a half hours. I vote Kill Bill(1 and 2 combined) as of now with Pulp Fiction as a very close 2nd. Screenplay and music choice are amazing in Kill Bill. A must own. Both films added as one. Shame it will never be released though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coma16 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 It's a bet tough question as my answers change all the time (almost like asking what is my fav GNR song from each album). JB has a lot of great scenes but as a whole I find that it drags a bit. I haven't seen it in a while so maybe I'm due to seeing it again. DP extended version I liked much more than the "grindhouse" version. But overall this might be my least favourite.I love both KB volumes but usually fall asleep during them both. PF is brilliant in so many ways. RD is nothing short of amazing and is likely my fav. Who shot nice guy Eddie lolIB is also a masterpiece.Django I didn't think think would be as good as it was. I just think that it was a little too long. I'll have to watch a few more times to see how it ranks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest NGOG Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 There seems to be a lot of criticisms of Django. Yes it drags, but don't all of Tarantino's flicks? What about the badass character of Django? The relatively unexplored brutality of black slavery and genocide in the US? The despicable sell-out portrayed by Sam Jackson? The fantastic music incorporated? Christopher fucking Waltz in all his epicness? And the absolutely glorious ending? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanGenie Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 i like pulp fiction most. but I prefer From Dusk Till Daen overall. my least favorite is Django. But thats just because its his newest flick and i always need some time to feel it.I also like Death Proof very much maybe because Im a fan of Kurt Russel and the way he acts in the movie ( glorious moment when he looks right into the camera before getting in the car) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GivenToFly Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Django Unchained actually. It's the first Tarantino film I've seen that I loved. I also liked Jackie Brown (my previous favorite) and Reservoir Dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsh327 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 One of the greatest things QT does is get people to rediscover actors from back in the day. I have no criticism of Django at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forsaken Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Django actually surprised me. I started watching it with low expectations because of the negative reviews I had heard before watching. It was great IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say it's the only reason, but I read a handful of reviews that were completely fixated on how disgusting the language in the film was. I also read plenty of negative reviews that had legitimate reasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forsaken Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 To each their own I guess, but I enjoyed it all the way through. Didn't feel like it dragged on, or it was too long as others have said. Leo and Waltz played fantastic roles in the film, as did Jamie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Lahey Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) It got bad reviews because it sucks. Tarantino is becoming a parody of himself. Christopher Waltz put in the same performace he did in Inglourious Basterds. Tarantino's cameo scene was lame, not funny and completely unnecessary. The only good part in the whole movie was when Leo brought out the skull and gave his little speech.

Coma16 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 hooray for tolerance! or hooray for tolerance! was used a lot in Jackie Brown as well. Would be a non-issue is QT wasn't white (for some reason Asians and Latinos get a pass with using that word) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forsaken Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 As well as "Dead nigger storage" in Pulp Fiction. QT has the reputation of pushing the envelope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sandman Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 That was damn tough. Went for Pulp though, but Resevoir Dogs, Django and Basterds are just class.Least probably KB2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest NGOG Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Tarantino's cameo scene was lame, not funny and completely unnecessary. Are you really chiming in on that? It doesn't in any way compromise the overall quality of the movie. It's merely a staple of the Tarantino filmography that he has a cameo.Anyway; I think a lot of critics lambasted the movie because of the level of honesty in depicting the barbarity of the white man.

bacardimayne Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Jackie Brown gets far too much hate. I wouldn't call it his best, but it's a great movie in its own right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
