It actually might be close to last for me and that’s in no way saying it’s wack, but it’s definitely not one of my favorites from him. I’ve only seen it once so maybe it will age better on a second viewing but I got it above death proof but behind hateful eight.

Inglorious basterds
Pulp fiction
Kill Bill Vol 1
Django Unchained
Reservoir Dogs
Jackie Brown
Kill Bill Vol 2
Hateful Eight
Once upon
Death proof


There are moments in the movie I love but for the most part it didn’t move me like anything I have ahead of it. I get what it’s saying and what it’s doing and why it has the pace it has but yeah it’s just something I like rather than love. Death proof is the only film he’s done I can say I don’t like overall.
You got Basterds as his best? :patrice:


I would say

Reservoir Dogs
Pulp
Kill Bill vol 1
Jackie
Django
Basterds
Hateful
Vol 2
Once upon
Death proof

Watched once upon a time again and I think i enjoyed it more the first time. :manny:

Yup basterds is my shyt. Watched it again after not watching it for a long time and I think Aldo is right, it’s his masterpiece.

Everything is intricate and has a purpose. Doesn’t have any of his self indulgence he’d get into after that. The first scene with landa and the milk dude (smh forgot his name) is dope dialogue all around, the way it revolves around Shoshanna and never drags, and how the basterds story and her story intertwine without feeling forced. All the shyt in the bar is tense and funny and the movie ends on a very satisfying note. Basterds just works from top to bottom


Plus it has this:



and any movie that has that is going to be at the top of any list I make :wow::russ:

Lmao


I took this chick to see that flick she had no idea what she was watching :dead:

It's a cool flick but to me I do find it drags a bit but has classic moments just like most of his flicks. I've always had a hard time watching Basterds all the way through tho. I usually skip to my favorite scenes. :manny:

I feel that. That shyt speaks to me. Always has. Just like kill bill and why it’s so high on my list. In fact all three of my fav QT flicks are movies I love: Kung fu flicks, hitmen buddy flicks, and B war movies. What puts inglorious over the top is the dialogue, intricacy and absurdity. Just put it in my veins

No Whammies!!
On 2nd watch, I was :ohhh: in the theatre at Leo. I'm legit annoyed they gave that Oscar to Joaquin for basically getting skinny and being weird. He's already plenty weird so him being creepy isn't a stretch. Rick Dalton was doing some shyt all over the place emotionally.

While you’re entitled to your opinion, I disagree. The entirety of his acting on the set of Lancer, from his failure to get his lines down, having a comical but sobering breakdown in his trailer, before going back on set and acing the scene and getting heaps of praise was phenomenal acting. He ran the gambit of being a whiney blowhard, to being sympathetic, and finally being confident again in his element. It’s one of my favorite sequences in the whole movie

One thing I didn't notice until the second viewing is how great the "trailer breakdown" scene is. As he's breaking down, he's breaking down IN CHARACTER.

I love that movie. I have it interchangeable within my top three.

I don't understand The Coli hate, but I just accept it as The Coli, but this movie has one of the dopest plot twist swerves on any film I've ever seen. The acting was on point, the foreshadowing was freakin' amazing, a whole bunch of symbolism, and Sharon Tate being the ultimate red herring.... I enjoy that movie. The set and feel.. the soundtrack. It's his most mature movie.
