At What Point Did Tarantino Become A Parody Of Himself?

[TheGreatShowtime]

death proof was fukkin' horrible. whenever sydney poitier, vanessa ferlito, rosario dawson and every other actress opened their mouths to say somethin, it was like you could hear him talkin'
tarantino gave no fukks with that movie and wasn't even tryin'. it was just one long homage to his damn self

robert rodriguez had a far better film with planet terror

It sucks because I actually loved the concept of Grindhouse with the double feature films. I think Death Proof is what ruined it, made it flop and is the reason we'll never see anything like Grindhouse in theaters again. The only thing people remember about Grindhouse are scenes from Planet Terror & the Machete trailer which eventually turned into it's own thing.

So tarantino is basically adam sandler's final form according to this thread

django was his worst film, easily.




death proof was weird..

that movie probably had the biggest 180 turn (from classic to trash) since 'sunshine'

the story with the first group of girls was awesome. dialogue was snappy, music choices were perfect. kurt was awesome, and the crash was very memorable

and then the second group of girls comes it... easily the WOAT tarantino characters i've seen. the dialogue falls off and gets annoying, and they ruin kurt russell's character. it was like what the fukk happend the second half was just bizarre as hell

if death proof had been a 30 minute short film that ended at the crash it probably would've been my favorite tarantino flick

that was a robert rodriguez film

threads like this is why were ranked number 8.


People will post anything for attention. Tarintino is a top 10 DOA.

Conveniently left out leo. Your shade continues

It's not shade. I just think he's overrated and don't understand the outrage when he doesn't win an Oscar as if there aren't other actors on this planet

That's clearly hyperbole. He's M. Night Shyamalan but with a gimmick that has a very long shelf life and actually produces entertaining, if not at this point predictable, movies

All Tarantino does are exploitation films.

Agreed.


i look at it like i look at Joss Whedon dialogue. Just him being himself.

It's like reading a comic book and they switch writing/art teams, each creator has their own flair that's consistent. That kinda shyt doesn't bother me.

The parrallels between Tarantino film-wise and RZA music-wise is a thread in of itself

 

[Box Cutta]

I like his movies...but he's grown to be *extremely* self-indulgent

It started with Kill Bill.

 

[ℒℴѵℯJay ELECTUA]

And he only has 8 films..already losing steam.

Lol

 

[Dominic Brehetto]

Most over rated director in the history of film. Its not even close.

 

[choc_cardigan]

Yeah there are pretty insightful and well versed posters, but overall this site's taste is complete shyt
