This is one of the best films of the 21st century, and certainly Tarantino's finest work.
>>214269162idk i kindadidn't like it and then at the very end I realized Tarantino's making fun of his fans so, like, cool, but I don't feel like rewatching it with this "correct" perspective
>>214269162Her soles were the soul of the film. Brava Tarantula.
>dude is that a flame thrower!? EPIIIIC>yo i just love gore it really enriches everything it’s portrayed in>bro le cool stag bros even though they are both losers >bro he killed his wife!? Hekkin sweeeet!!!>yooo i hate hippies dude! They wanted to kill that jewish pedo!? Aw heck no pedos are ok not due to trump!!!
>>214269162>MFW they named dropped Sergio Corbucci and 99.9% of people didn't know who the fuck that was ^_^>the opening shot is a homage to this posterNot to sound pretentious but art is even better when you know what the artist is doing.
Scenes get bogged down on studio lots a little too much. Also the ending was stupid, making a historical playground was novel in 2009, but not so much the third time around.
>>214269162The only true classic of the woke era.
I like it a lot, I'd put it right in the middle of his 9 movies.
>>214269227Who are you talking to anon?
Top comfy summer movie.
>>214269223He did the same thing to DiCaprio #equality
>>214269162Haven't seen it, but I'm very familiar with the Manson Family so I don't want to watch some gay fanfic about Spahn Ranch. Read CHAOS by Tom O'Niell.
True
>>214269681Tom O'Niell has been BTFO by Nikolas Schreck. Chaos is way too sensational to be true.
Kind of the last movie, like Blindsight was the last sci-fi novel
>>214269731He has evidence to back up what he wrote. Nikolas Shreck looks like a faggot.
I liked Hateful Eight more but OUATIH is a close second.
>>214269162I honestly don't "get" ouatih and usually I love Tarantino's films
>>214269162I don't know how someone watches this and denies that Tarantino is like a master at film making, it is truly something special that just envelops you as you watch it, it's like magical how good it is at pulling you into its world. The more I watch of it, the more I like it. It's top 3 Tarantino for me.
>>214269312I liked his friendship with his stunt double and how the stunt dou le knew to go along with it.
>>214269162Didn't love it when it came out but now it's my second favorite Tarantino (i'm partial to basterds), it gets better with each rewatch. Should've been his last movie, you can tell even he thinks there's no way he's gonna surpass it.
>>214269882It's a love letter to film and an escapism fantasy for a tragedy.
>>214269800He actually just spends a good deal of the book elaborating on known government programs and assassinating the original Bugliosi narrative (which is fine), then makes the most tenuous link between them and Manson, marrying it to the most generic MK Ultra narrative that's been around for ages without actually committing to naming anyone alive. He has almost no experience with Manson himself unlike Schreck who was in contact with him for decades. O'Neill is most likely a hack, especially when you realize how much of the book relies on him personally contextualizing people turning him away as evidence of a coverup.
>>214270087reminder Manson did nothing wrong. His crazy talk about "you made me, maaan" is him just saying that the public can't deal with the fact two normal kids did a horrific murder so they had to pretend he was a cult leader mastermind when it was probably a drug deal gone wrong (or Polanski was behind it)
I didn't like any film by Tarantino between Reservoir Dogs and OUATIH except for Django. OUATIH is supremely comfy, thematically varied, visually interesting and a perfect mixture of upbeat and melancholy imo. And yeah, I enjoyed watching Cliff Booth smash hippy skulls.
>>214269904I wouldn't deny Tarantino is a master, I'm just too stupid to really understand what theme he's going with. Like, I can watch Reservoir Dogs, or Pulp Fiction, or Jackie Brown but it never really clicks for me beyond the immediate story being told. The "what am I supposed to take away from this" part always vexes me
the movie is just too damn comfy, i love how you can rewatch it over and over again. Tarantino makes this as his version of a hangout movie, where you just want to see the characters hang and talk shit. Scenes like them watching the tv episode or watching cliff at home feeding the dog or the discussions between cliff and rick while the former drives the later is incredible.
>>214270222His theme is that he drapes the trappings of things he liked growing up over himself and his works. I don't hold it against him because he can spin it well, but it can make the second half of his career tiresome.
>>214270222The truth us, unless you're an autistic cinefile, you'll never REALLY appreciate his work. This is coming from someone who ISN'T one. You have to appreciate his work for what it is. It's like the old Looney Tunes referencing old cinema. You might not get the reference, but you know it's a reference to something. That's basically Tarantino's work. He gives new life to old things he used to love, even when he knows the audience probably won't understand is, simply because he love it
Why doesn't he just make a movie based on someone else's script. It's just a waste of film.
It's his 3rd best. Better than Pulp Fiction, but still inferior to Jackie Brown and Reservoir Dogs.
Agreed, probably the last great film I saw in theaters
This was the last great film. Better Call Saul was the last great TV series. /tv/ died almost a decade ago already.
>>214269162>the 21st centuryits a 90s 1960s nolstagia movie
>>214269193it's his fanfic about LA + LA history. fans aren't on his mind
>>214269904Robbie is magical in it. Tate wasn't never this romantically perfect. It's just a fantasy.
>>214269162Damien Lewis would've stolen the movie if his screen time was longer. He plays McQueen as a person, not just resemblance.
>>214270222If you always go into a movie thinking you should take something away that's meaningful or impactful to the human psyche; you might be watching movies for the wrong reason. Tarantino admittedly makes movies for himself, he just wants to make movies he can enjoy and watch because he thinks that's cool. When you take that into account, take what inspires him, understand he's autistic and loves to insert things he has seen or saw. Then you might start to understand his movies a bit more. Take Tommy from Kill Bill. Bill says "I like his hair.". Well you can look at DePalma's Carrie and the character Tommy who has fantastic hair in the movie. Tarantino loves DePalma. Earl McGraw says Beatrix looks like a "blood splattered angel", well so does Carrie after getting doused in blood. And then look at Tommy, with that hair. You can almost hear Tarantino saying "I like his hair" about Tommy. The dude is a dork. And he's great.
>>214271013I guess I should clarify and maybe I am just a retard, I don't mean to say that I'm looking for some transcendent life lesson, or looking to shape myself around a films message, but is Tarantino really only trying to say "I saw a bunch of movies that has these cool shots and I wanted to make my own movie that does that too?" And the audience isn't supposed to look for a greater statement? If so then fine, and I guess I just needed someone to say it out loud
>>214269162I genuinely don't understand why Tarantino made fun of Bruce Lee in this movie.Bruce was full of himself but he was still a legend and a genuine martial artist.That thing is that every other celebrity cameo is portrait as a cool dude except Bruce.So, what is Tarantino's problem with Bruce Lee?
>>214269162hey there buddy, watch your mouth.round these plebbity parts, we say>this is ARGUABLY ONE OF THE BETTER.... OF THIS GENRE... WITHIN THIS SPECIFIC TIME PERIODthen if anyone criticises it, you already have so many disclaimers that you can throw a fit.
>>214269223Disgusting

Why did Tarantino make fun of Bruce Lee? It's bizarre considering that he loves shlock and old b-movie stars from the past. I am not asian by the way, I really thought it was a strange choice for someone like him to do that.
>>214271206It has that gay effeminate Asian verbal cadence.
It's a great movie but the humiliation ritual of Bruce Lee was distatesful.
>>214271264to dispell the popular notion that he was an actual badass who could fight. and the scene was funny, it has been a meme machine ever since.
sole
>>214271288>verbal cadence.it's a fucking text, how can you hear verbal cadence by reading text?
>>214270871*puts disgusting feet right in your face*>ha ha, classic Quentin! You know, he's well known for his foot fetish!*gets over-the-top violent*>hah! I love how post-modern Quentin's use of violence is!*Brad Pitt is being antagonized and walks up to his car*>See, now we're about to see a Trunk Shot, a staple of Quentin's and my personal favorite! Every single one of his movie includes one!And there is no trunk shot you fucking nerd go get a new hobby
>>214271322>dispell the popular notion that he was an actual badass who could fight.The scene neither proves nor disproves that he could fight because the fight gets interrupted.Also Brad throwing him into a car is not an honorary move in Martial Arts, nobody fucking does that in a consensual street fight.
>>214271101If you listen to his interviews he can start to take his fictional worlds a little too seriously, you'll hear him say "no, you don't get it, that's totally what Cliff Booth would do in that situation, THAT IS THE CLIFF BOOTH THING TO DO" a lot. He was actually viewing it as how a bout between Lee and Cliff Booth would go down, forgetting that that's not actually a real person.
>>214271395>Also Brad throwing him into a car is not an honorary move in Martial Arts, nobody fucking does that in a consensual street fight.Boy, it's bad enough that you're terrified of electric fans, but now car doors too?
>>214271395>The scene neither proves nor disproves that he could fight because the fight gets interrupted.He gets his ass kicked>Also Brad throwing him into a car is not an honorary move in Martial Arts, nobody fucking does that in a consensual street fight.>throwing your opponent isn't a martial arts move
>>214271413But why humiliate Bruce?He could have chose Chuck Norris or some other B-Movie martial artist.The scene itself is not bad,but it did not have to be Bruce.Everyone respects Bruce Lee, maybe you are a zoomer and don't get it but he was the most famous action movie star for a while.
>>214271522because the jews have mindbroken Tarantino. His wife is israeli.Jews hate asians.Once greater israel has been created, they will try to sneak themselves into China and Japan.
the movie sucked because pitt didn't kill then rape bruce lee in that order. and then say "any kikes want a turn?" after he was finished with the rape
>>214271522QT heard from stunt men of the time that Bruce was an asshole behind the scenes who wouldn't pull his punches/kicks and was actually hitting them, knowing they wouldn't/couldn't hit him back without losing their jobs.
>>214271522Lee is more in line with his interests, Norris is only in schlock. He may not have inferred that everyone would think it's character assassination, as Lee shows up later in a wholesome scene with Tate.
>>214271635it was character assasination. The scene later on can't fix it.Tatantino killed the legacy of Bruce Lee with that scene, it is distasteful. Bruce deserves all the respect because he was one of the actors who pushed martial arts films to a new level and also made that genre popular in the western world.It doesn't matter if he could actually fight or if he was an asshole, what matters is that in this movie Tarantino was paying respect and homage to the greats of Hollywood with the exception of Bruce Lee.
>>214269162Agreed, also the last white people movie before Geroge Floyd ended that forever
>>214269162good movie but Tarantino can suck ass for making a fool out of Bruce Lee.Bruce Lee was a true fighter, he has been is many gang fights in the streets before he became a star. It's not a myth, he was the real deal, my grandfather was one of his students in his class and he would always tell us how Bruce had the most powerful punch a human could produce.
>>214271522>getting knocked down in a fight is being """"humiliated""""the overreaction to this scene is ridiculous
>>214271748Assassination would've been him losing the bout, I think from Tarantino's perspective, having him get up immediately after being thrown like that is respecting his resilience in a fight somewhat. He may also just have expected that since he had Kill Bill rely so heavily on a Bruce Lee image that his audience would know he's just playing around with his idols. However /tv/ is very racially motivated and will only construe it one way.
>the same seething bugman samefagging over and overNOOOO BRADDU PITTU!!!!!
shut the fuck up ching chong ping pong
>>214269162That shit is not a film, it is an advertisement Kill yourself Jew
>>214271891as I said I grew up with Bruce Lee's movies, they are kino.Tatantino is a piece of shit.He is the one full of himself.Also in this scene, Bruce claims he could beat the shit out of Mohammed Ali ( cassius clay) but this shows Tarantino is a piece of shitbecause there is literally an interview with Bruce where says he would have no chance against Ali.So why would Tarantino make this shit up about Bruce.It's jewish humiliation ritual.Bruce Lee was murdered by the jews,they also murdered his sonbecause hollywood jews do not want to see asians in their industry, because asians are not submissive and have their own strong culture.
>>214271522"Who would win in a fight Muhammed Ali or Bruce Lee" has been a meme for decades. That discussion is what starts the scene to begin with
>>214272104There is a real interview with Bruce Lee being asked this question and Bruce says Ali would win.He was not an asshole. He respected other fighters. The character in the movie is a parody of Bruce Lee.
If Bruce Lee were alive, which he is, he would be ashamed of his crybaby so-called "fans"
if Bruce Lee and Ali were the same size and weightclass, Bruce would 100% win.Ali was only good with his fist but Bruce also was very advanced with leg kicks.
>>214271877Bruce isn't even angry about it, he gets up and acts pleased that he has found a worthy opponent. But god forbid the chinese messiah be shown having any weakness at all, he needs to be like steven seagal and shown as completely untouchable at all time
>>214272092His only good movie is Fist of Fury. There were at least a dozen better martial arts stars in the 70s. Just because you had a Bruce Lee lunchbox when you were 7 doesn't make him some kung fu god
>>214272353filtered
The real Bruce Lee would never throw a flying kick as his first move in a street fight.This movie was a humiliation ritual.Jews seem to really hate it when asians or blacks become huge stars, they killed Bruce and Michael Jackson and then humiliated them on tv.
>>214269162its definitely got a style thats hard to match, i thought id be bored watching Brad pitt drive around LA but i wasn't. the ending was hilarious, the scene with bruce lee is hilarious, and leo being a big baby the entire movie was hilarious. margot's parts were the slowest, but its a pretty big payoff at the end.
anyone else got pedo vibes from the scene with Leo and the child actress? I think Tarantino might be a pedo guys
>>214269162Tarantula's best by a country mileHis best OST, his best cast, seemingly infinite HW references, his best period piece, best camera edits, best mountain out of a mole hill script, best vibes. I was turned off initially by the revisionist history thing, but it works to his favor of highlighting the blood on the tip of a blade, only to clean to a shine by the conclusion. Hollywood pictures duh never tell the whole truth of anything depicted, with that said the meta levels of this film are masterclass
>>214272633who do you mean?
>>214269162>here's that kid I was telling you about lol fincher is such a fucking joke
>movie nerd makes another movie about making moviesSnore. The only good part was Kurt Russell.
the ending of OUATIH is the most gentle and sweet moment in Tarantinos entire filmography. The music is beautiful
>>214272633Projection or bait, take your pick
>>214272143Yes, I don't doubt that at all, but the point still stands people have for a long time argued for Bruce even having a shot, which certainly isn't the case. Movies are a visual medium and there is absolutely 0 issue with it being displayed as it was. Should the Bruce stand-in have looked at the camera and said 'well folks actually I am on record saying this isn't the case so ignore the hypothetical leading to this and my cock response.'The fight between him and Cliff wasn't even finished anyways so you can still cope that he might of done something cool. I think it's hilarious as well that you have repeatedly stated to not being Asian in your replies without prompting. 'Asians and blacks are kept down by Hollywood'please.
>Turning down a blowjob from a girl because she was underage Nobody did this in the 60s, right?
