Q.T

>when did you grow out of Tarantino?

I don't give a fuck about the person behind the work.

both

his movies are largely an extension of his personal character anyway

the last movie I watched from him was Jackie Brown, at home
that very moment I realized this guy was just a hack, fueled by journotards and praised by ignorants
imagine the amount of fucks I gave when inglorious bastards debutted
I won't watch any of his new films, even at gunpoint
his best work will always be the Bruce Willis arc in pulp fiction, and dead nigger storage

Tarantino’s films feel like a series of vignettes, rather than a coherent story. Less than the sum of its parts. There’s usually a few truly great scenes, surrounded and supported by very mediocre ones.

Ex: Basterds had maybe 30 minutes of great content; burn the other 2 hours.

It’s wonderful if you’re a kid and you don’t have a great attention span. But for me it’s mostly tiring.

The only film of his that doesn’t fit his MO (and ergo the only one to feel like a real film) is Jackie Brown.

Caring about directors like this is zoomer liking eceleb tier

>I didn't go to film school, I went to films
Oh it shows Quentin, it shows

God damn it, where is the SWEET salt?!

You need to build a time machine and tell all those early Hitchcock fans that they're being zoomers, in that case.

If you can't see Tarantino in his work, you are too much of a retard to watch movies at all.

Maybe stop talking like a zoomer mongoloid before you start making accusations.

I never said that, so maybe you should work on your reading comprehension.

Really reaching for those bumps to a boring thread.

or you can just -not watch- hollywood movies and watch some arthouse/indie/classic films

Tarantino made two great movies (reservoir and pulp). He has basically trying to repeat the same thing over and over in different settings for the last 25 years.

I've never never seen any of his movies lel

why not doe

Still reaching for those bumps i see

lul

the thread wasnt even on page 7-10

take your meds

I really liked Inglorious Bastards but there you can already see that he started to become too self indulgent. With Django and Hateful Eight it became clear that he has no one left that can say no to him. I still enjoyed watching them in the theatre, but...

I saw how you replied to the wrong person earlier

He's a self indulgent dickhead who steals far too much and some of his younger fans don't help (claiming he invented things like non linear narrative and so on when they just don't know older movies), but when he's on form he does make very good films. Or sometimes just great sequences in films that don't hang together as well as they could. But yeah, I'm in a similar boat. Think he's a cunt. But his new one was the most I've enjoyed anything of his in years.

So is this Yea Forums's version of metal? Pathetic.

>but there you can already see that he started to become too self indulgent
He was self-indulgent from Reservoir Dogs, it's one of his finest traits and it also made his career. The fuck?

the fuck you niggas mean by self indulgent? is it because of his dialogues?

>too self indulgent
TOO
TOOO
TOOOO
TOOOOO
TOOOOOO

Shit going on for longer than it should, throwing away a well crafted mood for jarring silliness, stopping a movie dead so he can 'act' for a few minutes or suddenly start giving a narration that actually adds nothing. Basically anything where you can feel him slapping himself on the back and having a giggle

He's subverting expectations

The guy I replied to used it, but the term "self-indulgent" when it pertains to Tarantino is more of a compliment than a criticism since that's one of the things that makes his films what they are. If he wasn't as self-indulgent as he usually tends to be, his dialogue wouldn't feel the same, and neither would his movies because he loves stretching his scenes and make everyone enjoy themselves, including himself.

I wish he'd subverted that last half hour off Django, man. Shit peaked then just kept on going.
Whereas with Hollywood, it totally worked for me.

Yeah, Django is the only movie of his I'm not a big fan off and would say it's his weakest, but still far from being bad. That last half an hour felt unneeded, though I haven't seen the film in several years and could use a rewatch to see how it holds up or doesn't.

Thanks user, "too" is the important word here. Too much of a thing is poison .

this is pretty much it, any time where you can feel Tarrantino wanking himself off on screen instead of making a good movie.
For me the example would be the extra 30 minutes attached to Django Unchained with Tarrantino also as this australian slaver. You could have just cut that shit out and have one ending instead of two.

Will he ever be able to compete with Chinese and Mexican directors?

I never grew out of tarantino, his films can be appreciated at any age
I did however grow out of defining my maturity by the movies I watch, like an infantile pseudo-intellectual 22 year old

You did say that. Growing out of Tarantino doesn't mean growing out of him as a real life person, but growing out of his film-making style. His personality is in his work.

Well said, user.

Most of Tarantinos dialouge sounded to me like Tarantino monologing over or through other characters.

I've not seen anything of his since kill bill 2. Maybe one day, but he's low on the list.

Cringe

>defining my maturity by the movies I watch
you cant be a capeshit fan and still claim to be "mature"

it just doesnt work that way

>you cant be a capeshit fan and still claim to be "mature"
Hating on capeshit doesn't make you any more mature than the average capeshit fan, it's also not if you like or don't like something that makes you mature, but it's got more to do with your opinion on it.

Never liked his movies but actually really liked OUATIH (22), but I liked kevin smith shit so whatever
