Any Quentin Tarantino fans out there????


Recommended Posts

Well yes you may say and probably will, "I bit behind the times Volatire" and you would be correct. After all since 1778 I have had a lot of reading, listening and movies, as you call them, to see citizens.

Well I have just watched "DEATH PROOF" and I must say it is the best thing QT has done since Pulp Fiction! amazing, and I would like Zoe the 'Kiwi's' phone number if anyone has it, HOT!!!!!!:rolleyes::D:cool:

Well, yeah, but I am so disappointed in this wanker. Thought Pulp Fiction was one of the most original and fascinating movies I've ever seen! Positively brilliant! Thought Reservoir Dogs was a prelude to the man's genius. So did Hollywood else Pulp may not have gotten made. He wrote True Romance which you should see if you haven't. Then the guy got carte blanche in Hollywood and what does he come up with? Kill Bill? In two Parts? Made him a fortune while he was on a creative vacation. Jackie Brown was good, IMO. Then, turdsville. I don't find fault with him for indulging his success, I suppose. Well, selfishly, I do. I expected better. Like when he was hungry. He spoiled me.

V,

I rang your home number to give you Zoe's phone number. Surprisingly Mrs V answered and said you were out. So I left the details with her... Is your wife OK, V? She started out rela friendly, but as soon as I gave her Zoe's phone details, she seemed real worked up about something....:rolleyes: Sorry to hear about the vermin problem. Last thing she said was something like "I'm gonna kill that no good rat.."...:P

cheers

Sheds, that phone number is my exclusive property as is the lady you say it belongs to. Use it again and I'll send a cleaner round to visit you. I merely loaned her out temporarily. The cleaner, too.

Damn, Jimbo, you're quick :rolleyes: Zoe spends a few weeks stateside and you've already shown her your southern hospitality...? :D No way am I gonna rile a Texan. You guys got some pretty big six shooters down there....

Hope you're enjoying Wimbledon :cool:

cheers

Yes well as "Forest Gump" said, 'well that enough to say about that'.

Still brilliant movie, loved the "raw" film effects./.......

I don't know what's wrong with me.:rolleyes:

I watched the last 3/4 of pulp fiction on Fox the other night and I just plain didn't like it. Yes, there's a degree of interest in the bizarre premises of the movie but overall it just didn't grab me. Bloody messy too:mad:

I read the critics' opinions on MRQE and it was clear I'm out of kilter with popular opinion. But those critics failed to explain what was good about this movie that I missed.

Maybe I should get out more:rolleyes:

Cheers

Tony

Having worked in casualty/emergency, albeit over 30 years ago, I'm not particularly upset by blood, guts and violence. However I don't like it and I don't see it as entertainment.

PS I didn't like Forrest Gump either....

Tony whatever you do dont watch Death Proof, Reservoir Dogs or bsically any other of his films as violence and blood and gore feature heavily. I must be a sadistic bastard as i love all of his owkr and thought Death Proof was great. I was a big fan of the Kill Bill movies and still like to dress up in a trak suit and get out my sword for fun!

I am a fan 4 sure!

Must say that I have enjoyed all his movies ... Jackie Brown was the only one I was lukewarm on but maybe I just didn't 'get it'.

Thought both movies on Grindhouse: Planet Terror (Robert Rodriguez) and Deathproof (QT) were a hoot .. the fake movie ads were an extra delight too :rolleyes: Just love QT's expertise in handling dialog.

What I like about Tarantino films is that they are all homage. The only trouble I have with his period pieces is the incongruity of the music with the period, like in Inglourious Basterds. A minor quibble, though. He is a master of dialogue tension, which is another throwback to classic film-making.

Massive QT fan... My fav movie director.

 

IMO Kill Bill is pus, but every genius bombs out now & then, I guess.

 

QT movie original cinema posters go for premium money. I just paid too much $ for an original double-sided Django cinema poster. :(

 

A couple of years ago I think I may have also paid a premium for the Grindhouse: Planet Terror/Deathproof poster, but I did tell my wife it "was a bargain." :)

 

It's the one on the left.

QT rocks

 

i recall watching an interview where he said, in one of his scenes, a chocking scene, he wanted to do it for real...

choke the woman to get the real expression on here face.

 

Now thats dedication, and a sign the man is a little sick....my kind of guy  :)

Just watched Kill Bill again after about 7 years (I know, as I have the receipt from when I bought the dvd). Hey, that is one great movie! Surprised how much I had forgotten in it.

 

Now I am going to have to do all the QT movies all over again!

 

The Vaseline jar is one of the all time great movie scenes!

I should mention, rehab, that it was your blondie that made me watch KB1 and 2 today. An irrepressible urge that forced me to turn on the projector, pour a whisky and make a couple of Nespressos (the Crealto and Lungo Forte for those hanging on to recommendations) and just veg out. Had to do a little gardening between them to keep sane, but a great afternoon.

 

Rehab Blondie, I thank you.
