Probably gonna be pretty entertaining but probably a lot of cool ideas wasted cause Tarantino wants to go the hacky, Robert Rodriguez rout. Once that chick stuck her tongue out & did that pose I was like "yep, typical post-Pulp Fiction Tarantino." I'm basing this on Inglorious Bastards and Django

Exactly the same point that I rolled my eyes. Was watching the trailer expecting something to give it away. Oh well..as you said, it should still be entertaining.

I've pretty much hated Tarantino since the Kill Bill movies. His all style, no substance worked perfectly in Pulp Fiction... now it's just annoying and intrusive. I'm constantly being taken out of his films by some line of dialogue, some piece of music, an inconsistent action sequence, or something else that screams "this is a Tarantino movie!"

Michael Madsen has done a lot of B-movie schlock in his career. What I like was that he played the dad in Free Willy: "Hey, you know who would make a great dad in this kid's movie? The guy who plays a violent sadist in every other movie he's been in!"

Yes, but, the script is superb, without flaw. The sequences twixt Alabama and Clarence (before California) &&& father & son are genius. It was easy for Hopper, very difficult for Slater. To raise the mother/wife's specter into the film gravels one to bear witness to it 20+ years after. That he could not OR would not duplicate it---reinforces it's perfection.

Why in the hell would you assume that? Easy with the "legend" comment. Reservoir Dogs was awesome and Pulp Fiction is incredible, but legend is reserved for people like David Lean, Kubrick, Scorsese, Spielberg, Coppola.

Specially Sizemore...Penn tries to keep up, but, he struggles when in Sizemore's "presence." Separated---he's more effective. Sizemore, at prime is a difficult actor to eclipse,,,he eclipses "you."...whether it's on the bridge with Hanks in "Pvt. Ryan" or, when DeNiro does the roll call in "Heat."

The German guy siding with Fox in the Bar. Laughable. Town would have murdered them both. He'll find a way to trash Germans in this new Black Cowboy film.

I actually like Deathproof (never seen the directors cut with more bitches talking though). It's not great or maybe even good but it worked for me. Russell is great per par and it felt more like a true grind house film than Planet Terror to me. I think Kill Bill is my least favorite.
Agree about Jackie Brown, saw it only once in theaters, watched it again and it's much better than I remember. QT should adapt more instead of just repeating himself imo.

But now I gotta scorch your earth. The German soldier who was not all Nazi probably had an SS guy in his unit to see that everything went well. Hitler had problems with the avg. German soldier as he was not committed enough just like he distrusted some of his best military men. The SS guy in the bar was a fanatic and was ready to die as portrayed in the movie. And he did. The poor kid in the bar that just wanted back to his kid (GI) got killed due to the SS guy. Get your shit straight.

And none of them wanted to be associated with the Nazis AFTER the war so the mark on the forehead was a nice touch I must say. Read a get dem history book. The fanatic in the ditch got clubbed to death, the informer got marked. Good stuff. And that's not what's neat. It's Aldo (Pitt) and Christoph Waltz juxtaposed in making a name for themselves with the enemy. Good stuff in pieces, really good. Sorry you can't see straight thru your Iron Cross.

You're being set up, pg, used, recruited, brain washed. The German soldier thought he was right. That God was on his side. He'd watched his family starve and die because of the lethal sanctions after WWI.

Thats a huge generalization. The regular German army was on the whole antinazi as the Nazis did not show good discipline and rationale in taking over in the mid 30s. The people got swept up so the solider was caught in a tough spot. Poor and sick of war but energized by the masses. Sure the soilders and people thought they were mistreated by Versailles, but they did not go along as a whole with all the manifestations of being a Nazi. Many soilders/officers were sick and tired of war. The Nazi phenomenon is not unique to Germany, it could happen anywhere(Japan)

Anyways, specific scenes in that movie were fantastic. We could all agree with the OP on the way movies travel often disappoints. But individual scenes can be incredible and this movie had them. The Hitler BS and making him out to be a clown are indeed cheap and repetitive in movies. .. And why I don't often look at movies for the entirety of their structure mainly because they are too short. This is why we have books.

Its not like I think this is unique to the German soilders. I would have been one of them most likely in the same situation. I get that.

Over and out.

We will see if the Police boycott of the movie will hurt it. Tarantino has not
backed off his criticism of police, In fact he has doubled down on it.

My main issue with Django is that they said the 'D' was silent. The 'e' in "give" is silent. The 'D' in "Django" is very much articulated. There's a reason why linguists decided to spell it that way when transcribing.

Ooooohhh, I thought it was supposed to be Dj ango because he's a DJ in the wild west.

LOTS OF SPOILERS!!!

What a miserable 3 hours. I'm sick of T beating his white self up to appease blacks. Christ, I'm proud to be white.

The white sucking the black cock. & the shadows of permissive homosexuality by T & Jackson stating his cock was gorged with blood.

& Tatum had no business in among that cast. That was not for him. I cringed every time he spoke.

& why couldn't the Lincoln letter be true? Can somebody explain why it had to be a lie?

& the 70MM. Please. My 1080 looks sharper.

T. likes black cocks imo. That's why he always has Jackson in his movies.

I thought the movie was funny and the guy from Justified did a great job as the racist sheriff.

I'd watch it again but it's too long.

didn't think it looked good. ended up worse than i thought it was gonna be. just seemed pointless. and that ending? reservoir dogs runs laps around this. i love tarantino but this movie is honestly one i could see myself telling people they don't have to bother to see.

granted, i'm still glad i saw it... since it's tarantino i would've seen it eventually. also, it was free and in that 70 mm shit or whatever. i liked the music.

not a huge django fan but it was better than this.

outside of the woman most of the other characters aren't that interesting imo. a lot of them die but the payoffs aren't that good cause you weren't reallly rooting for anyone cause most of the characters are assholes and/or racist.

Django is the only Tarantino movie I haven't seen.

He's made only 8 films over 23 years which is hardly high volume. Also, they've almost all been received well critically and at the box office where it really counts.

Tried to see it but the movie was very boring and I fell asleep. QT has an Avante like obsession with blacks which gets annoying. Now the Revenant on the other hand was entertaining and had a lot of action(saw it dro'd out in my living room hidef and it was fucking amazing, it was like I was there during the battle scenes and bear attack). The revenant and martian were 2015's best films imho.

---SPOILERS---

I'm looking forward to going to see it this week. The original is a terrific movie. John Huston does a splendid job as the leader of the trappers. The boat they're pushing across the land is equipped with a small cannon mounted on the edge of boat which comes in mighty handy during the Indian attacks. The Huston character of course as Captain commands the firing of this weapon. His calmness under fire of the attack is sweet, waiting patiently while the cannon is reloaded then ordering it fire...."Fire" as the Indians are bearing down on them. And Richard Harris underplays his role which he rarely ever did. And there are flashbacks in the original that explain what his character is doing out there in the wilderness. Back in New England/civilization his beautiful young wife died in child birth, he's lost faith in God & man and has left hearth, home, son, and his (((understanding mother-in-law/can ya imagine it?))) to trap beaver & moose, bear & elk.

why wait till it comes out? You could stream it online for free in hi-def. Best Christmas present ever! Thanks Alejandro! Tom Hardy steels the show in this movie as he is unrecognizable. He looks like a complete deranged redneck psychopath with his crooked eye and scalped head. It's a brutal violent movie in the likes of Apocalypto/Braveheart, last of the Mohicans but not as good but close.

Saw it last night. I thought it was terrific. QT proves time and time again, the strength of storytelling is the journey, not the destination. The constant tension of what you're afraid might happen next carries throughout the entire film. Could get Oscar for cinematography, too.

Liked it. 70mm wasn't a huge deal since it's more for color than anything imo, but appreciated the overall effect. Score was inspired though the more modern songs were sore thumbs. It's a Tarantino film with Tarantino actors, so you know what you're in for. The best winter killin' western is still McCabe & Mrs. Miller, but this was good stuff.

I thought it was great. It could possibly have been a bit shorter but it kept my attention the whole time from good storytelling. Keeping most of the movie in the cabin worked well. Not as good as Basterds but way better than Django, tbh. Didn't see anything that would have justified splurging on the 70mm version. The 35mm print was fine.

Are you sure you saw the 35MM print? I thought there was only a 70MM print and a digital (non-film) version. I could be wrong though.

Anyway, I saw the 70MM and loved it. It was worth the extra couple of bucks.

TBH, it was probably a digital version. There are two movie theaters in SA with 70mm projectors and I didn't go to either. From what I heard there were a few theaters around the country that had to spend $50-60K just to get retrofitted for the Christmas release.

I didn't like it much at all. Beginning dragged on. Plot similarities to Resevoir Dogs so it just felt like a Western style version. A cast of characters get grouped together at some isolated, enclosed place where no one trusts anyone. And then they all kill each other. The end. RD was unique and innovative at the time. This seemed like a hack job by Tarantino. And true to his nature, all the "n-bomb" this, "n-bomb" that dialogue and then gratuitous violence and gore. The Bob face explosion felt like a From Dusk to Dawn caliber special effect.

Leigh was an abomination until the last 10 minutes of the film. I actually had higher expectations for Goggins and felt he underwhelmed with his performance. Jackson and Russell were about what I expected. Madsen was okay, but I thought he was under-utilized in the film so he didn't have much to work with. The best performance for me might have been the Mexican Bob guy. His character intrigued.

Overall, very unimpressed by the film. I'd say it's the worst film he's made, easily bottom 2 for me. It could have easily been closer to 2 hours as well.

The Mexican was interesting. I agree the movie could have been shorter but I liked it. It was vintage QT.
