Is this the greatest pleb-filter in recent years?
>Zoomers and normies hate it because there isn't enough spaghetti violence
the fuck is spaghetti violence?
Otherway around newfag. Normies and ugh... "zoomers" love this tripe because they think nothing happening for two hours makes it deep and not an utter waste of time.
Cliff alone makes it worth watching.
>Zoomers love this trope
It's not a trope you invalid. Stop using words you don't understand
I liked it it was just unnecessarily long like hateful eight
The slice of life format of the majority of the film is necessary in establishing the beauty of the world for both the audience and the characters in the film. Most obviously the scenes of Sharon Tate simply going around being her beautiful self makes us dread her fate. Similarly the iconography of Hollywood during the era from the beautiful vistas to the colorful characters sprinkled throughout shows us what Rick Dalton has to lose.
The final act is literally the preservation of the world we've been experiencing for the past two hours.
But normies can't go through a slow scene without a shitty one-liner every second.
I liked seeing Cliff just driving around.
Tarantino needs to make an Elvis biopic, but it's just Elvis driving around Memphis for 4 hours.
This. Most people consider the 60s to have “ended” on the night of the Tate murders, so Tarantino is presenting an alternate “fairy tale” ending in which none of the murders take place and the golden age of Hollywood lives on
how about you stop troping all over the place, tropey
Reading too much into it: the post
don't be dense. Tarantino has even used the term "fairy tale" to describe the film
>reading other peoples open minded views that i didnt come up with on my own makes me unhappy because i should be the one who thinks uniquely
Topkek
I saw this at 11am on a Wednesdays. The theater was filled with old boomers, men and woman in their fucking 60s. And they loved it, the old lady next to me laughed out loud when the hippie chick asked brad pitt to suck his dick.
And Cliff and Rick refer to their last night together as "the end of an era," with Rick possibly ending his movie career and not being able to either pay Cliff for oddjobs or giving him stunt work. The allegory is that Sharon Tate and cie's murder, on that night, largely ended the hippy peace and love movement (with the Altamont music festival being the last nail in the coffin.)
The movie ends with the Manson family being retards and most likely an isolated incident, and Rick finally meeting his neighbors and possibly rubbing elbows with Roman Polanski, thus continuing on that era.
is this bait? user said tripe
Lol what the fuck is spaghetti violence
Do all of you retards just make up shit on the spot
the real question lmao
I didn't really think much when he said "end of an era" but looking back this is exactly what Quentin meant.
Its bittersweet, questioning what would have happened if the Manson murders didn't bring about the ending of an era. Seeing them all alive at the end made me tear up
Violence inspired by spaghetti westerns, which many of qt’s films contain
This film truly exposes plebs at every level
I'm going to see this film in a couple of hours.
Pretty excited.
Have fun dude, are you going by yourself or bringing people?
by myself of course. it's a 35mm print too
Tarantino managed to make a good movie outside his comfort zone and contrarians are seething
How is it out of his zone? It has Tarantino written all over the movie. Or do you mean the missing senseless violence all over the movie?
All QT does is copy old movies. How is that original? It isn't. And yet he's viewed as an auteur by so many plebs. Such a shame...
Nice, matinee? I saw it for the second time yesterday matinee. A bunch of elderly people were there but we showed up early to get some good seats. Some old couple sat next to us even though there were plenty of spots and talked the whole movie lmao
lmao
Style over substance. Also if you don't know old hollywood or the mansons, this movie makes no attempt at explaining shit. Now take a great movie like wolf of wallstreet who make sure even if you don't understand the world its in before, you get a better idea or enjoyement from it.
>liking quentin tarantino
>pleb, zoomers, normies, spaghetti
Back to Buzzfeed

Anyone that gives that chimo cow Lena Dunham a paycheck deserves to be gassed right along with her.
That wasn't Lena Dunhams character
He sometimes recontextualizes scenes from 70s movies, yes.
> ugh...
Die in a hole you retarded zoomer scum, I bet you browse Tumblr
my experience has been completely the opposite, children love it
make sure you download candy crush first
Literally every poster in this thread is a zoomer
You're right /
Ruins redemption arc.
>being stupid on the internet
desu she was a lil cute in this
Enjoy dude
Yeah people that can’t pick up on the Arthurian cinematic image juxtapositions should really just stick to video games, they are literally too retarded to understand film
The whole movie is wrapped In the sequence which starts with the juxtaposition of Margot Robbie (playing Sharon Tate) watching the actual Sharon Tate on screen in the movie theater. The film is basically about subjectivity, objectivity and the oddness of a creation of a fantasy. Cliff Booth lives in reality, he coasts on it, he rides the waves and nothing can topple him over. Cliff is the loyal supporting squire to Rick Dalton, the famous wealthy knight (or prince). Dalton’s subjective reality is breaking in around him from the objective force of the world. Rick sits in his pool and talks to his tape recorder, he talks to a creation of himself. The film is another loose King Arthurian retelling much like Pulp Fiction was, cowboy stories are already repackaged knights and wizards fantasy tales, so this movie has three layers to comb through. Charles Manson’s family is basically just goblins or mountain bandits that want to destroy Tolkienesq society because they are objectively evil. Every ‘wound’ is the force of the objective world intruding onto your subjective physical body, the gratuitous shots of the hippies ‘wounds’ at the end are clear signs that their subjective creations break way to Cliffs objective force because Cliff submits himself to the objective current of the world unwaveringly, allowing him to actually hold real weight and power in the realm where humans subjective realities co-mingle and clash. The film is actually suprisingly optimistic and I would even say a work of genius, it’s his best film since Pulp Fiction.
>we live in an age when it is perfectly acceptable for a fully grown male to make faces like that outside of theatre
I love when people say "The film is about", really makes me want to listen to your Godly opinion.
When spaghetti is thrown around
You’re a poopie diaper crybaby
My theater was cracking up when Leo and Brad were first drinking their drinks, Leo making a sour face. People are just stupid.
It's just a stupid thing to say. It's absolutely not how you should write a review or a thesis.
meant the art of theatre, not a movie theater friend.
Going to see this at the Colonial in Phoenixville tomorrow night. Too bad it's not 35mm, I'm bummed they didn't get it
Watch this:
>beltvanias
>scotscrollers
>willyformers
Looks comfy
it's good, they redid it a few years ago and it's very marble-y golden-age inside
i can just watch metv for 3 hours if i wanted the same experience
Should I go see it tomorrow?
Is it worth seeing in 35mm? I would like to very much see it again.
>then you remember the name of the film
lol
ok, this is based
Those all sound like comical underwear brands.
super based post, actually thought-provoking
for the film to work, you have to buy into sixties nostalgia, though, which is not the same as loving the films and the music. QT is still stuck curating other people's work instead of making his own.
this is just the media narrative of the time, though, which was actually driven by wanting to neutralize the idea the hippy movement represented so as to prop up support for the Vietnam War.
they could have covered the Manson Family and Altamont as the actions of white supremacists. focusing on the hippy element was the seizing of an opportunity.
My mom hates this movie because she thought Leo whined too much in it.
>"Oh boohoo, I have a failed acting career. So annoying."
Her exact words.
That's why Margot's terrific Sharon Tate is so essential. Whether or not you are in love with the era you can't help but be in love with her or at least feel some kind of sadness at the fact that she was so violently and undeservedly taken. It's Tarantino's equivalent of "I wished I could save her in some sort of time machine," and in my opinion it was beautifully done. That final scene with Rick Dalton at the Polanski residence gate and the way we don't immediately get to see Sharon Tate alive and well, first we only see Emile Hirsch and then we hear her voice, and finally we see her greeting Rick with the promises of a bright future that never came to fruition. It's quite melancholic actually.
Except Altamont was Hell's Angels fucking up their security detail, not some white supremacist plot.
Old women hats Leo because he only fucks hot young qts and doesn’t get tied down
the manson family was creepy i hated how they didnt wear and shoes at all and were crawling in garbage bins
go to films, zoomer
that's literally the point of the movie
This essentially
looks like a fucking caveman
get your eyebrows waxed, man
I hate it because it subverts its own thematics at the end. It would have been more emotionally honest if Brad and Leo's characters came back from Italy to find their neighbourhood turned into a crime scene investigation and agree amicably to part ways, signalling an end to the golden era of Hollywood. By subverting history at the end Tarantino shits all over the pathos he's spent the first couple of hours setting up. It ends up not meaning anything. The best part of it is the restraint he shows by leaving the violence to the end. Jackie Brown is his best film because it shows similar restraint to maximise the impact of the violent moments in it AND communicates its themes of ageing and second chances in a consistent and competent manner.
who are you, my 10th grade english teacher?
One of Tarantula's best flicks in years. Some old boomer was smoking cigarettes in my theatre while the movie was playing, so it contributed to the experience
going to watch this with my parents tonight, does it have any awkward/sex scenes?
where do you live that smoking is allowed in theaters?
Are you in 10th fucking grade? Take criticism like a man so the next time you attempt a review or something intelligible, you'll do better. Dumbass bitch.
He's a Bruce Lee fan or what?
a movie for white people :)
It's not allowed. The guy still did it anyway, god bless him
lena dunham looks like a 50 something
Other than a clothed female making suggestive poses, no.
underage detected
fuck if i know
>awkward
yes, unless your parents don’t mind feet
>sex
none
>It's Tarantino's equivalent of "I wished I could save her in some sort of time machine,"
That's why I find the frankly over the top violence towards the murderers so weirdly satisfying. It's cathartic. They took something from people and a idealogy that we'll never get back.
Then that's kinda beautiful
>that scene with Rick in the trailer after he fucked up his line on set
That had me in tears until it got to the point of him threating to blow his brains out if he fucks it up again thats when shit hit too close to home for me because I've had that conversation with myself way too many times.
that's not true. my mother thinks he's hot.
I think some people are confused about the meaning of the ending. Yeah, people say that the Manson murders put an end to the 60s, but Old Hollywood wasn't alive and well in 1969—and it wouldn't revive if the Manson murders didn't happen. By the time the film begins, Rosemary's Baby and 2001: A Space Odyssey have already come out. The year the film takes place is the year of Easy Rider and Bonnie and Clyde. New Hollywood is already beginning. The question isn't whether Old Hollywood will live on. That's over; it's the whole reason Rick is down and out. The question is whether Rick is going to be a part of New Hollywood, and the ending implies that he will. Rick Dalton in Chinatown? Maybe. That's the meaning of the ending. It's a personal victory for Rick, not a victory for Old Hollywood as a whole.
That scene is genuinely one of the best in cinema of the past twenty years, along with many others from the rest of the film. DiCaprio's acting is Oscar-worthy there—not to downplay Pitt's amazing performance.
when you spill your spaghetti too much in front of a girl so you have to kill her so she can't tell her friends
I saw Sonny Landreth here. Nice place!
or flying in his private jet just to buy a peanut butter sandwich.
Could have been a really good short movie, maybe 35-45 mins long? If you cut all the scenes of Brad Pitt driving and Margot Robbie dancing by herself, that is probably the amount you're left with. I watched it on spankbang on 2x speed and it was still too long.
>being this much of a fag
I hate this board sometimes
the one holding qualley's hands is most definitely lena dunham, cast terribly as catherine "gypsy" share
Or Casino!
It's basically a documentary for the first 30+ minutes. Similarity immersive in a bygone Las Vegas without Scorsese taking you out of the film with directorial signatures like MUH FEET and le epic VIOLENCE®. But moreover you don't have to be "in" to understand the movie. And I overall enjoyed OUATIH but recognize why a lot of people hated it, and that it isn't even made for us.
Okay, now how long do we have to wait for Once Upon a Time in Tribeca?
Can anyone recommend some other kino california movies, more specifically lush hollywood life?
inb4 somewhere
What about, you know, not making an opinion about a movie based on what "normies" or "zoomers" think about it and then thinking the opposite?
beautiful b8
Passengers brutally killing Jewish pilots?
It's wish fulfillment though, just like Inglorious Basterds. The point is not to re-present the past, it's to re-create it. This has been Tarrantino's goal for pretty much every film. It's just more obvious when he re-creates historical truth, rather than re-creating his version of Kung Fu movies or w/e
I’d like to hear more about this Arthurian connection
Advanced bait
Is this the sexual predator that lost his job?
Well said. I usually find Tarantino annoying, but he was the right sperg for the job. He made a wonderful little movie.
Thanks for this, really interesting. I knew there was something being telegraphed loudly during the movie theater scene, but I was too dense to flesh it out.
Pulp Fiction is a well known re-telling of the legend of King Arthur, this one is Tarantino returning to his roots tonally
>"zoomers" love this crêpe
It's not a crêpe you invalid. Stop using words you don't understand
Thats when you put ketchup on spaggeti
Fuck dumb cunts who don't know shit about the history of film and tv.
This movie will literally weed out zoomers
This movie was garbage. It was just a collection of tangentially related vignettes that weren't particularly interesting in any way. The action scene wasn't even good, just a bunch of comical overacted trash
I came here 6 hours late to laugh at an illiterate faggot. Luckily I didn't have to scroll too far before I found one
