At What Point Did Tarantino Become A Parody Of Himself?

[Blackgate]

I think you should try to explain your point better again. How did you come to this conclusion when again Django is during slavery times, and the hateful 8 is right after the civil war where one of the things they were fighting over was slavery?

And for the other idiot, people aren't questioning you for not liking Django just because you are black. People are questioning you because it seems you have missed the very simple and sometimes heavy message in the film that usually appeals to people who have experienced any type of racism.

I don't want to judge people by their taste in film but at the things you guys are complaining about.

i think tarantino tried to get the viewer to feel something when the black characters are called ******...i think he does this to make you not like the character (good vs evil)...so you either the kind of person that dont like the racist old cracker character or you do...either way tarantino got you covered and you will feel some type o' way at the end of the movie...

You do know, hopefully, that is exactly how white people spoke to and spoke of black people then right?

A muthafukka even liked that shyt

it was overly long and badly structured. the whole third act dragged on and on and on and the end was anticlimactic. basically, tarantino had material for one and a half movies and tried to make it two instead of just using the best of what he had and turn it into one movie.

Wrong breh. It was supposed to be a single four hour movie but the studio split it into two

Breh... I've read Revolutionary Suicide, multiple times, and absorbed a plethora of Black Panther material in general.

I own Spook Who Sat By The Door... one of my favorite movies... even made a thread about it:

I'm so radical in my beliefs it would probably make you uncomfortable in real life.

But your post was so outta pocket I had to respond even though you didn't really deserve a response. Hopefully you think a little harder before you respond this time.

Nah fam dude likes to say nikka in his films. How does Chris Penn saying nikka this and nikka that in reservoir dogs develop his character, especially considering there weren't any black people in the film? In pulp fiction, was dead nikka storage really necessary? Neither of those films took place during slavery or the reconstruction era.

Its to point out that whites are just as racist as blacks.

I dont know about you but I have been around relatives and some black folk in a casual setting and heard the word cracka thrown out in reference to whites like it was nothing. All races do this in some fashion....

You must dont know the realistic nature of casual convo among people who dont feel the need to have a filter.

That is what I figured from Tarantino movies.

Some people are "racist".....and some are "racist" behind closed doors...hence the "dead nikka storage" towards a known criminal. That character most likely would never say that to his black wife or to coworkers.

but we are not discussing those films. we are discussing the movie django, and in that movie, the word serves a sepcific purpose. that doesn't mean that he can't be criticized for using it, but if you do, you need to take context into account. and even in his other movies, the word is used to flesh out the characters. scorcese used the word in his movies, because that is how mobsters talk. as a black person, i can still be offended and argue that it's insensitive to use it in movies, but that doesn't necessarily mean the movie or it's director are racist.

That doesn't change the fact that he had Material for one and a half movies. I don't know if a four hour movie would have been better though. and the end would have still been anti climactic. you had all these awsome fight scenes and then when she finally meets Bill, they talk for what feels like an hour and then he dies of a single punsh

This a a thread about QT, YOU decided to highlight django and hateful 8. I and the poster you responded to were talking all his films in a general sense. Look, I'm a fan of his work, I enjoyed every one of his movies, some more than others, but because I enjoy them doesn't mean I turn a blind eye to some of the shyt he pulls. I think EVERY single one of his films except maybe kill bill and inglorious b*stards have nikka in the script to varying degrees. Even With b*stards you hardly heard kike this or Jew that, in a film about fukking nazis. I get it his films are usually about criminals and bad people and apparently about people who really only one type of racial slur, and its nikka.

I didn't choose to highlight django, I responded to those people who were calling it a racist Film, which it isn't.

this movie was horrible and predictable. As soon as they got to the house I could tell this was going to be one of those "who's the mystery killer" drawn out plots that obviously ends with the killer being exposed and a bloodbath taking place. I hadn't seen any trailers before I watched so I thought this was going to be some kind of real western not a spoof. His usage of the N word in this movie was completely classless, non artistic and I feel was put there for the enjoyment of racists that he subtly caters too.

 

[Frump]

Be mad cause white folks were still calling african-americans the n-word right after the civil war breh.

Is QT not allowed to be real and show the times for what they were? Or how racist white folks were (which hasn't changed much)?

In all seriousness Lotta people on message boards are on the spectrum breh. They ain't gonna get context
