In Conversation with Quentin Tarantino
vulture.com ^ | 8/23/15 | Lane Brown

...You supported Obama. How do you think he’s done?

I think he’s fantastic. He’s my favorite president, hands down, of my lifetime. He’s been awesome this past year. Especially the rapid, one-after-another-after-another-after-another aspect of it. It’s almost like take no prisoners. His he-doesn’t-give-a-shit attitude has just been so cool. Everyone always talks about these lame-duck presidents. I’ve never seen anybody end with this kind of ending. All the people who supported him along the way that questioned this or that and the other? All of their questions are being answered now.

Not a fan. Like Steven King Tarentino is highly overrated. IMO he hasn't made a watchable movie since Jackie Brown.

Not a fan either. QT is a movie loving geek who emulates greater filmmakers who came before him. I liked Pulp Fiction. The rest I could take or leave.

Agree!

I’m pretty good about not spending my money supporting left Hollywood, but he does have a movie coming out that sure does peak my interest. Darn it !

The Hateful Eight....

So true - Tarantino just copies other filmmakers from eras that are too far in the past to be remembered by the idiot generation

That said - the opening scene in Inglorius Basterds is a classic but that was mostly the acting - just wow

Damn, it's going to be tough watching one of his movies again after reading that.

His movies have always been a little uneven but usually worth watching. The Django Unchained had potential to be a classic but the gunfight at the end was just way too drawn out and over the top. I mean when Candie's sister gets shot, you can see the cable yank her out of the room. It was so fake it kind of ruined the movie for me.

Inglourious Basterds also got kind of weird toward the end after such a promising start.

Same with Reservoir Dogs. That scene when the policeman got tied up and tortured was so unnecessary and gratuitous that I had to stop watching at that point.

My favorite movie by him was Jackie Brown. Probably because that bounty hunter guy reminded me of myself.

Sorry, Q, “bring out the gimp” - he’d do a better job as President.

Interestingly, he still supports the use of film in the first stages of movie production, even though there are very few movie film processing labs left and as such, movie production can be quite expensive using film nowadays. Especially now when you can get a RED Epic digital movie camera that can record 4000-line resolution video at 48 fps for just over US$50,000.

Pulp Fiction is the only thing he has made worth watching. The rest are exercises in a 13 year olds masturbatory fantasies.

Reading your comment gave me the chills...most incredible movie opening ever.

Otherwise, QT is an idiot.

I don’t think Bush will get this but if he did I would not be surprised to see him clean the slate and start over. I hope this election will clearly say to these guys “reverse the last 8 years”

What delusional B.S. Did you forget the /sarc tag?

The Bush elites worship at the Alter of State Power.

Bush would NOT reverse anything Obama has put in place. The only thing I see Bush doing is trying to make spanish the official language.

Too bad the movie did not quite gel. I thought the scene in the cafe in the cellar was very tense as well. But the movie just got sillier as it went along. And the idea of showing Jews getting revenge on the Nazis was offensive when one considers what really happened to the Jews in WW2. I guess I just didn't get the joke.

You don't get the idea of killing all the Nazi leaders in one gigantic act of revenge?

Is that you Karl? Did you write that drunk?

The bush family epitomizes the evil elites. Our Republic is truly being destroyed, and yet the Bush family says nothing.

Obama is just the final cancer.But make no mistake the Bush family are anti-constitutional arrogant evil elites too.

The Bush family lies and say they are Conservative. They are hard-core statists. The Bush family loathes Conservatives. They family loathes Conservatives.

Yeb Bush's irrational, Republic destroying love of all things Mexico is beyond sickening.

I am sorry, you obviously meant this post for yourself. LOL! I hope you can overcome your love for the Statist bush family.

It will be wonderful to see your pals in the evil GOPe go down. It is a joy to see the evil elites squirm. I guess you are okay with the Bush family and the rest of the GOPe trying their best to change our Republic into a decaying spanish speaking sewer? I am sorry you don't believe in America anymore.

Out of curiosity,is the evil GOPe more evil , less evil, or as evil as Obama , Hillary and the socialist Bernie Sanders?

I think I know your answer

I do hope you will consider it

LOL, nice try. Believe me, nothing the GOPe does eats at me. I express myself passionately and with righteous anger.

I am happy in my life but upset with where my country is headed.

The interaction of Freepers concern mostly politics, so you will see our frustrations with the RATs and evil GOPe expressed in colorful ways.

Please tell Karl and Jeb hi for me :)

Since nothing of the sort happened, I guess I don’t get the joke. The Jews were slaughtered like sheep. They didn’t have squads of Jewish GIs killing Nazis with baseball bats and carving swastikkas into their foreheads, and they didn’t kill all the Nazi leaders by setting fire to a movie theater. I don’t get what was clever about depicting that. There are so many Obama-voting dumbasses in the world now, they probably think it really happened.

It’s an alternate history. A revenge fantasy. That’s all. It’s supposed to be emotionally satisfying, knowing what terrible people the Nazis were.
