Quentin Tarantino Set to Direct Final Film, 'The Movie Critic' (Update: SCRAPPED)

[Lootpack]

I just want The Whole Bloody Affair on 4K. No reason it should take a farewell tour to get that.

 

[NZA]

just make the damn star trek movie, you goofball!

Film critic movie with him would have been some self-indulgent BS anyway, Make this Human Tornado/Petey Wheatstraw influenced Kill Bill 3 movie.

Do you really want to see 55-year-old Uma Thurman playing the bride?

Could definitely work if she's in the villain role that Bill was, "Kill Beatrix"

I doubt we're getting that though, he'll probably do something completely different

Why is this his final movie? Why not just make it and if you feel like making more at a later time then make more?

He said in interviews that a lot of great directors lose it as they get old (not completely wrong tbh) and he wants his filmography to go out on a high note. But still he's probably being too strict with these self-imposed rules.

He's not wrong but Scorsese is as strong as ever. Why not just stop when you start to lose it rather than limit yourself?

Scorsese is Scorsese, and not every filmmaker is going to feel the creative drive to keep making films until they’re on their deathbed. If Quentin wants to end his filmography on ten films, then cool. Why is this so hard for folks to grasp?

I can see it forcing him to to put his all into every project since he can only make a certain amount. That being said, creative people almost always break their retirements so I’d bet on tarintino making more films down the line.

I mean, I understand it. I just feel he's sensationalist about it but hey it's opinion and I half agree with him. It's the Seinfeld principle: better quit while you're ahead, right? I just don't understand why quit when you can still make good films rather than cut yourself off. Seinfeld ran for 9 seasons but it was still ultimately 180 episodes which is a fairly large and sizable number. If you can't decide on what to make your final movie then you clearly have more to say and therefore haven't ran out of ideas so it seems silly to retire because of that fear.

Also, personally, I think this shows Tarantino's limitations as a filmmaker. Scorsese, Kurosawa, Tezuka, and other artists kept it going till death and most of their ideas got more elaborate, more detailed, more thorough with age compared to their earlier works.

So I understand why Tarantino is doing it but at the same time it shows he's not that dude or in the discussion. Retiring because "I'm not passionate about film anymore" I could accept but "I'm retiring because I think directors movies start to suck when they age" is pretty bonkers.

But hey that's me

Yeah, they always break the retirements. See Miyazaki. So it's whatever.

 

[Heavy_Handz]

He's putting too much pressure on himself to make a final grand film. Just make movies dude, or don't.

Would have been super dope & COLD if he never said a word about retiring after 10 films & then would have premiered his next film and before the final credits…

THE FINAL FILM BY QUENTIN TARANTINO

Every film he does is self indulgent lmao

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

I did not know that was QT as that Australian in Django Unchained. I was like this is one ugly cracker, they really have that scummy slave trader look down. Come to find out it was QT the whole time and he was clowned for that cameo.
