Official Hateful Eight Thread

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

WOAT Tarantino movie, definitely one of the worst of the year. Tarantino is tone deaf and needs someone to rein him in. Him and Spike have the same issue, where they feel their work is so genius that if the audience doesn't like it it's because they "don't get it." In reality, it's just not that good. The difference Tarantino has a money faucet and spike has to scrape up every dollar.

The first hour was unnecessary. The dialogue was weak (saved by good acting), violent just for violence sake, the "******" use was way too cringeworthy,

the black guy gets castrated

The ending was weak to me because I truly didn't care about any of the characters. If it wasn't for Sam Jackson this would've been a complete waste of time.

This was just ok.

Overly unnecessary use of ******. Didnt even come off as a necessity and just shock value.

Well acted gotta point that out.

Sam Jackson investigating was my favorite part of the movie.

I didnt care to remember any of the characters names because there really wasnt a reason to.

There's really a heavy divide here - no middleground. Bottom line - it's Tarantino doing a whodunit. If you're interested in a gang of characters in a secluded location for some time, tryna figure out who's lying, then go see it. It' heavy on dialog, little on action (but when the actions starts it doesn't let up).

Eff that, I'm gonna watch it again AND see it in theaters. It was great to me.

Maybe it's just me but whenever I see Samuel L.'s name in a movie, I automatically don't want to see it anymore

Sam is a Legend but it's clear he never tells his agent No when it comes to movies. Dude has done 4-5 movies a year for 20 years, lol. Honestly again I think he was the best actor of the bunch along with Kurt and Jennifer.

Just finished watching this movie and I didn't enjoy it all. Very basic movie which is not like Tarantino at all and probably his worst yet. Meh

 

[Real]

Loved the movie.

 

[ProfessionallyTrill]

70mm screening starts at 7:30.

What time should I get there to ensure a good seat?

I'm in Atlanta

 

[thaKEAF]

Trailer didn't do anything for me and from what I'm reading here, I don't even want to stream it.

It's pretty boring. Literally nothing happens in the movie that lasts for over 2 hrs.
also I wasn't really that bothered about the N word. I think the female character actually got a raw deal in the movie.

I kind of agree. I wanted to like it more than I did.

Honestly to me I was letdown because

It started to really get interesting to me after the coffee got poisoned and Jackson was trying to piece together the mystery and then all of a sudden it seemed like it went from narrowing down suspects to a big shootout in 10 minutes. Seemed rushed to me.

QT definitely is just jerking himself off at this point. I think I probably liked the movie more than you did, but I don't think I'd be excited to watch it again. After Kill Bill, Django is really the movie of his I enjoy the most. I know the opinions on it are very split on here, but I thought Inglorious Basterds was overrated or if it wasn't, I just didn't enjoy it that much.

Jackie Brown is his most underrated flick by far.

I also think he's on the autism spectrum. Has to be.

Also, at least he knows he's getting out of his prime. He said he may do 2 more and call it a wrap.

i liked it but it wasnt good compared to his classics

 

[jmegamar]

Thought it was decent. Didn't think about it until a poster said it but it's similar to reservoir dogs.

 

[FlyRy]

Seeing on twitter that you get a dope program at the 70mm showings.

My theater better have one

 

[y que]

death proof and inglorious are his most mediocre movies

inglorious is way overrated though

any movie that shows hitler getting shot up will get praise from jewlywood
