Now that the dust has settled, is this Quentin's best movie?
I was at a sold-out showing on Christmas Day and a group of five people came into the theater three minutes before the show started.
Being that they couldn't all sit together, two sat on the side of me and three sat behind me. Every single one of them were SUPER sick. Behind me I had one dude sneezing, another one coughing (big hacking cough, spitting all over my neck), the girl next to me kept saying she had the chills and kept sniffling and her boyfriend fell asleep. She asked him if he could make it to the end and he said he's, "Just so sick."
As if that wasn't annoying enough, THEY KEPT TEXTING EACH OTHER THROUGHOUT THE FILM. So their smartphones were on the entire time as the people in the row behind me texted the people next to me.
It was a nightmare. Now, I'm guaranteed to get sick and they really wrecked the movie. The Hateful Eight? More like THE SICKLY FIVE.

In Hateful Eight, Tarantino never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity to show what's going on with various characters in key moments. And on a script level, it makes no sense that the gang of killers wouldn't have tried to capitalize on this diversion. It also makes no sense that Jackson, suspecting Mexican Bob murdered Minnie and the others, would have taken that random opportunity to blow away an essentially harmless old man, however racist he may have been. AND on a script level it also makes no sense that Goggins, at this point in time, wouldn't have stripped Jackson of his gun and cuffed him, or at least tried to, after pulling that stunt.
>>64279252Just kidding anon, that's awesome, I'm happy you're happy. I had a good laugh at your comment. Happy new year.
Nice rip-off, Mr. Quentin.
>>64279324
Why wouldn't Jackson shoot a man who he was literally at war with? Goggins is the law, he'd understand self-defense.
>>64279371
You didn't watch it. It has nothing to do with monsters.
>>64278997
Are you the same guy who is constantly talking about his wifes kid in relation to his enjoyment of star wars in other threads?
I liked it. Not cuckintino's typical shoot 'em up gangster flick this one had more of a mystery. I'm with the other anon though it should have been called the sickly five
Abraham Lincoln wrote a letter to a nigger?
>>64279402
>Goggins is the law, he'd understand self-defense.
Somebody shoots your hero and you just stand there? Goggins should have pulled his pistol for a stand-off and then Quentin could have ripped off Reservoir Dogs also
>>64278795
Sorry about that brother, I didn't realize I was that sick until I sat next to you
>>64278627
i enjoyed this movie when it was called resevoir dogs and not 90 minutes too long. it's tarantino's worst and most boring movie, which is disappointing considering the trailer made it look like he was deviating from his stale style.
>>64279402
Perhaps he's wondering why Jackson would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane.
>>64279457
Are you kidding?there's a big black one we see halfway through the movie.
Why didn't the gang inside just instantly shoot the Hangman upon arrival? They had 4 fucking guys with a bunch of guns
Did people in the theater laugh at the racist jokes? They were funny because they were racist.
>>64279265
>shot in the balls
Happens in nearly every fucking Tarantino film
>>64279934
It would have been a very short (but probably better) movie
>>64278627
I've seen both versions. Besides the overture and intermission, here are some differences
- Early in the 70mm version, Warren and Ruth have a short exchange regarding an old horse Ruth owned. Warren asks Ruth if he mercifully put the horse down to which he replies that he did (which is pretty interesting because it is the exact opposite of how he treats Daisy). This exchange is missing the theatrical version.
- The 70mm version includes a short scene where Ruth asks Bob to finish plucking a chicken, seeing as how half-plucked chicken is bad luck. There's an additional shot of him plucking the chicken shortly after. The theatrical version is without the exchange and the shot - instead, it only shows the final portion, where Bob is finishing up and brushes the remaining feathers off of his lap.
- There's an extended dialogue sequence in the 70mm version featuring Smithers and Mannix where Mannix explains that Warren is the famous black Union Major with a price on his head. Smithers reacts as if he knows of Warren's reputation, clearly upsetting him. We later find out why. The theatrical version cuts out this short exchange but, while it does add some nuance to these characters and their backstory, doesn't add anything that the audience would not have deduced anyway.
- in the theatrical version, during Daisy's rendition of 'Botany Bay,' the camera starts on a crane and slowly zooms in towards her as she sings. The movie then cuts to a profile view with her in the foreground and two characters engaging in an important plot point in the background. Alternatively, the 70mm version starts and ends with the stationary profile shot during the whole song and includes a portion where she messes up that is not included in the theatrical cut.
>>64279067
HOLY PLEB!
>>64279803
>le newer films are disappointing and older ones are good meme
Everything in this movie seemed implausible (Why did Hangman let the spook on in first place? Why did he let the other guy if he didn't really think he was who he said he was?)
Why did the gang just let Hangman take over the cabin? Why did they pretend to be caring about the law yet no problem when the spook cut Cowboy's neck?
I never really cared about any of the characters that much. Why was killing the girl the big "payoff" at the end? She wasn't the worst character to me. If anything, Channing Tatum's character annoyed me the most.
>>64279934
Also, After Ruth dies, Warrren made Mannix, Oswaldo, Gage and Bob stand againt the wall.
Why didn't Jody kill Warren then, this was the perfect time to do it. Because Mannix was unarmed and Oswaldo had a hidden gun in his pants. Jody could have easily killed Warren and Oswaldo could have killed an unarmed Mannix who was standing next to him..
This script seems like it was hurried and not thought out well.

It's the ROADSHOW version. Some unlucky moviegoers had the chance to watch it in digital if the theater's projector broke down. The one in my city did
>>64278627
I did not expect much (at least I hoped for more claustrophobic situations). It was fine for me.
I think that Tarantino is best in one thing: mass murder by a gang. I must admit I liked that idea in Kill Bill (wedding scene) and I liked it in H8.
I mean it is interesting when you know that normal and happy situation will end horribly.
I know realized how poor was Red Wedding in GoT and how much better it could have been if Tarantino made it.
The movie did a great job of showing how hypocrytical and bigoted the Major was in his racism towards everyone in the haberdashery and his projection.
It was poetic justice the most hate filled of the 8 got his nuts shot off.

>The movie did a great job of showing how hypocrytical and bigoted the Major was in his racism towards everyone in the haberdashery and his projection.
So I'm not the only one thinking the major was a bad guy.
>>64280594
I'd love to hear you say that to the people watching digital
The production of the western would most likely have begun in the summer of 2014, but after the script for the film leaked in January 2014, Tarantino considered dropping the film and publishing it as a novel instead.[7] He said he had given the script to a few trusted colleagues, including Bruce Dern, Tim Roth, and Michael Madsen.[8][9] This version of the script featured a different ending in which Warren and Mannix kill Gage by forcing him to drink the poisoned coffee, Domergue reaches Mannix's gun and shoots Warren dead, and the wounded Mannix is left to die alone
>>64280524
Niggers & Mexicans were natural enemies in the wild west.
>>64280704
>Domergue reaches Mannix's gun
Which Domergue and what happens to them?
>>64280594
It was an experience all right, just a bad one
>>64279934
>>64280010
>>64280228
He had Daisy chained to him retards
>>64278627
I unironically think it might be my favorite QT film.
The thing is that normally his films don't have a human center beyond references to other films, but Mannix and Warren setting aside their differences and bonding put this over the top for me.
>>64280524
The colonel was the 2nd most racist guy there next to the southern general.
Hell, SLJ's character was the only one droning on about race shit when the Hangman, Domergue & the gang barely even have 3 lines mentioning race.
>>64280881
Shoot him in the head, how does that harm Daisy?
the characters in this movie are the embodiment of what makes tarantino such a cringe inducing writer that only appeals to fedoracore plebbitors
>>64279692
>Goggins should have pulled his pistol for a stand-off
Warren hadn't drawn. if Goggins draws, Warren is dead because the old man can just pick up the gun and shoot him because Warren is no longer able to go for his own weapon.
>>64280667
Certainly not. The black dingus scene and then Warren shooting the general wasn't another QT revenge fantasy regarding black empowerment. I definitely think the films attitude toward Warren's behavior was at the very least disapproving, certainly not glorifying his actions at all.
You got your first taste of Warren being an asshole when he embarrasses John Ruth about the letter. The film built on that part of his character when he snuck up on Joe Gage and held the knife to his neck, and Joe Gage literally calls him sneaky.
Lastly, you sympathize a little with the General when he lets Warren sit down with him and he starts talking about his son. This made me think Warren took advantage of and shot an old man, rather than avenged the black troopers the General once slaughtered in war.
I definitely think Warren is not a good dude, and that the film didn't intend for you to think he was
>>64280524
>has to think cleverly in order to combat and defend himself from white supremacy and oppression that surrounded him in the country and even in the cabin which was a local black company overtaken by white thugs and was only taken out by a white person underneath him showing that no matter how much better you are then white people, more racist white people will always be there to kill you because you are black
Your thought process is literally so simple and plebeian. ooga booga black guy got shot so it was justice. Your whiteness and minimal life experience is incredibly transparent.
>>64278795

Roadshow or GTFO. You're probably not a fan of film if you waited to view it in digital anyway.
>>64280881
Think Godfather Part II. The scene where Kirby and Deniro are stealing carpet. The cop knocks on the door. The position Kirby takes in preparation for the cop to enter. Bang, no more hangman.

Yeah. I'm just so used to sjws making excuses and glorifying these characters like they're some kinda heroes.
Rewatched the torrent again, and I now DEFINITELY think QT points out the Colnol as the most hateful of the 8.
>>64281047
not him but
>you're not a fan of film if you waited to view it in digital anyway
hahahhahahahhahhahhahah this is my first time on this board since 2012 what the fuck happened to this place?
what the fuck happened? who are you people and why are you all of a sudden calling tarantino patrician and saying that if you're a fan of film you have to see this at a road show? WHAT HAPPENED TO MY HOME
It was okay.
>>64280988
it's not a coincidence that Warren got his dick shot off, it was poetic justice for the dingus story.
the movie is actually (omg) balanced and reasonable in its attitude to race, even down to a Confederate like Mannix turning out to be an okay dude.

Yeah. If you notice, the Colonel is always the one who LIES FIST as with the lincoln letter, or INSTIGATES like with the old general.
No matter what the Colonel's justifications were, he was always the one who wrongs someone first...
Let's get fucking real here

What happened to Minnie's cat?
>>64281237
You're an idiot. Warren already knew there was something wrong with the people in the haberdashery and that they were not good people once he entered it. He was weeding them down in a way that wouldn't cause a huge shoot out. The lincoln letter was created in response to racism and prejudice which was literally stated in the film, or did you close your ears during that part whitey?
Not sure why any of you are arguing Major Warren is the protagonist.
He's definitely not.
>>64281125
Different heights mate, unless shooting from the ceiling, a bullet through Ruth's head is going nowhere near Daisy
>>64281280
Hangman had some moral compass, he wouldn't do it and if he wouldn't, then no one else could either.
>>64281330
Cinemark luxury loungers? Those are the tits
>>64281237
Good point. Lots of accusations. But Warren was the liar and instigator of the group.
>>64281419
Hell yeah man. Hard for me to go to another theater now.
>>64281237
If I was Mannix, I wouldn't have trusted Warren at the end.
I've already posted in this thread, but thinking about the movie again has made me realize I actually fucking love it.
It's a great film. People just weren't expecting it to be what it is. It's going to be like with the Coen's A Serious Man.
>>64281020
Was it really you? If so, describe the theater, etc. And did the other four people you were with also not realize how sick they were?
>>64281479
If I was Mannix I would have shot them all.
>>64281147
>it's not a coincidence that Warren got his dick shot off, it was poetic justice for the dingus story.
Yeah. Mannix lasting to the end was a suprise for me too.
Taratino seems to be more racially balanced in this movie after Django

Mannix wouldn't do that because he was ACTUALLY A DECENT GUY.

Mannix would have been next on that list...
>>64281665
>Or that other blonde
it legitimately tested my suspension of disbelief that none of them even suggested it.
>>64281490

So a film only pretentious hipster douchebags can "appreciate"?
>>64281691
> Agreed. Can't trust Warren since he's shown he just wants to bait & kill southerners.
That's my point.
Mannix should have been the last to trust Warren after he killed the southern general.
>>64281679
>got triggered and started crying/shitting their pants during the DINGUS seen
With all the porn that is available, why were people bothered at all?
>>64281490

>>64281759
Say that again but without buzzwords and in concise essay format. I bet you can't, because you have no idea what you're real opinion on the film is beyond biased baseless dislike.
>>64281490
>People just weren't expecting it to be what it is
Actually, this is just about exactly what I'd expect a QT film to be, to a fault.
None of the twists, gun-duels, etc. really impacted me because I genuinely hadn't invested enough in the characters to care.
Unlike in Inglorious Basterds, that tense ass scene is actually tense
>>64281691
Bear in mind also Warren was about to blow Mannix's brains out as early as in the coach before Mannix shut himself up.
>>64281773
Maybe the fact that Warren had them all lined up and unarmed and then pulled Mannix over, gave him a gun and explained that they just almost poisoned him?
>>64281479
I don't know, Mannix's character, from the beginning, was built to be a simple, gullible guy that just wanted power. He was the next sheriff of Red Rock. He completely 180s when facing down the barrel of a gun. He aligns with whatever agenda will put him into a more powerful position.

Honestly, the responses in this thread about how Warren is the worst is mind boggling to me. I always knew 4chan was ignorant on race relations but this is like 10 times below the average redditor which is already a bastion of white ignorance.
>>64281147
>it's not a coincidence that Warren got his dick shot off, it was poetic justice for the dingus story.
Still feels like warren is the bad guy that gets off easy...
Don't forget all the other atrocities Warren committed, killing innocents, burning northerners & even children.
Seems like Warren may have more blood on his hands than even Domergue.

This.
I think this is why I didn't feel great about the ending.
All the other bad guys got their due justice and the Major is left alive at the end.
>>64282153
>the 136th highest grossing film of 1992 was popular
>>64281910
>that just wanted power
nope, Mannix legitimately cared about the law. he cared more about the law than about whether or not he personally liked Warren.
>>64280189
>Why did Hangman let the spook on in first place? Why did he let the other guy if he didn't really think he was who he said he was?
The guy clearly had a code of ethics, he wasn't about to let two men freeze to death, especially not a man he had met previously
>>64282252
it's almost literally stated that he and probably Mannix will die of their wounds. the movie is inspired by the Thing so it's like those two guys accepting their fate.
>>64282190

I don't get the scene between him and the hangman reading the letter...

He's saying that what you're referring to as the "70mm cut" is actually the Roadshow cut. If you were unfortunate enough to go to one of the showings where the projector crapped out you would have seen the Roadshow cut in digital
>>64282507
He killed Joe Gage and Daisy and wounded Oswaldo, he wasn't in on it
>>64281847
Ya but inglorious devolved into a cartoon show in the third act and H8 had a conclusion.
>>64282507
In on what? Domergue's gang? Of course not. Mannix knows he faked the letter, and they're just laughing about how he faked it. They're just being bros at the end.
>>64278997
This meme is spreading like wildfire
>>64282412
How much were movie tickets in '92, Gramps?
>>64281847
that's because you were invested in Fassbender and his dingus though, not because the characters were better.
>>64282588
Yeah but how did the Hangman have that letter/telegram if he was in the gang and why did he read it to Mannix and say well that's how it's supposed to go down.
>>64282704
are you dense
he killed the real hangman and took his papers you goof
>>64282612
No when the Hangman introduces himself to Mannix when he comes back in and Mannix says he's the new sheriff and then the hangman pulls out a letter/telegram and they both read it, it's a weird scene, doesn't make sense.
>>64281847
If you couldn't invest enough into the characters I don't think you were paying close enough attention. I thought most of the characters were exceptionally well written.
>>64282577
Is english your second language? I said I went to two different showings
>>64282742
But how did they kill the real hangman when he wasn't in the cabin?
>>64282777
They were interesting, but I didn't care if any of them lived or died
Suck it you racist fuck!
>>64282772
Oh. Well he claimed to be the hangman of red rock, and mannix is the sheriff, probably something to do with Red Rock and legal stuff
Apparently the Roadhouse version has an extra 3:17 in footage and a real plot twist which I heard kind of stinks
>>64282772
Was that the order to hang the guy that killed the sheriff who Mannix was replacing?
>>64282772
it's a thematically relevant monologue - the idea that doing stuff dispassionately is an important part of being civilized, near the start of a film where pretty much everyone chimps out for the whole running time, even the movie itself with the OTT gore.
the fake Hangman is acting the part because he realizes Mannix expects it of him.
Mannix is the one listening because he's the character who has to wrestle with what the right thing to do is near the end of the film.
>>64282836
Did you really have to? There's not one character in there that I really wanted to live or die either, it was more like wondering who was going to live through all this. You're not really supposed to deeply care for the characters, you treat them more like you would in a whodunnit

Earlier, before they got to the haberdashery. They looked like they had it all planned out, and considering none of them discussed their fake identities when they first came to the haberdashery, it's safe to assume they were prepared.
The Hateful 8 was complete garbage. I've got all this guys movies, but Django and Hateful 8 were both total trash. No, it's not a "nigger" thing, alright? The story arcs, pacing, and character development have been completely sub par. Why did Q intentionally utilize Ultra-Pana and then leave his viewers inside one room for the entirety of the movie? Where are my rolling landscapes? Where's my Home On The Range? Is this a western? Or is this Kurt Russell in boots? I thought it was total crap. That's not to say there weren't salvageable bits. But if a 3 hour movie by a entirely capable director is reduced to salvageable bits before becoming palatable, that's a shit movie. I don't give points for effort. Shit was beat. Go see Star Wars, it was amazing. Q's an asshole, J.J.'s an artist.

Not to mention: the costume designer (in an interview) stated that they wanted Warrens attire to look very "Lee Van Cleef". So even from a stylistic approach he's probably the worst one in the place
Right now I am texting friends trying to figure out which thearter to see this in tomorrow. There are two nearby with it in 70mm. Might go see one showing that gets out just before midnighr, bit after eleven. There are some good bars nearby. Though dunno if we can get in so close to midnight on New Years.

There's this thing about Tarantino where everyone always assumes it's NOT going to be a dialogue-heavy movie.
From the very start of his career he always had a couple of badasses in a closed environment trying to out-talk each other. That's it. That's all it ever was.
He does pepper it with action and some set pieces but very rarely and mostly just copy pasted cool shit he saw somewhere, but primarily it is always about dialogue.
So even knowing he was going to use ultra panavision, it was clear he was mostly going to use it to film people in a room talking.
You only have yourself to blame if you thought it was going to be anything else than that.
It was a big movie
Its almost reservoir dogs set in the old west, and every QT movie

Not to mention the fact he could EASILY have arrested him for publicly admitting to torturing, raping, and murdering a man he'd taken prisoner.
It's objectively his worst.
Everyone dies XD
Great ending, tortilla you hack.
>>64282983
read his post again
I was actually pretty drawn in until Kurt Russel died
after that it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen
Literally DKR level of potholes
>>64285043
plot holes
Did anyone seriously enjoy this movie? It's such a fat piece of absolute hackery that I was seriously awestruck while watching it. It was complete shit on every conceivable level.
First off the movie looked like utter shit because instead of taking advantage of glorious hyped up 70mm Panavision he shot almost the entire movie indoors. So aside from a long fucking closeup of Jesus and some snow shots at the start, it's completely wasted and just made the production more expensive and showings more complicated. This will also fuck everyone who wants to watch the movie on Blu-Rays because they're going to get shit letterbox format instead of being able to see the movie properly. What was the point?
Second, the dialogue. The dialogue was some of the worst I've ever seen in a movie. It was Manos: The Hands of Fate tier shit you wouldn't tolerate in DTV nonsense but people are praising it. Characters constantly repeat each other. Characters don't have ANY natural conversations, they take turns delivering longwinded exposition, like in the carriage at the beginning when Mannix, Russell, and Jackson literally just take turns yelling each others' backstory. This is so clumsy, so awful, that only a complete autist who's never heard people talking in real life before would think it's good writing. Oh and can't forget Tarantino's tired old nigger jokes. They're not funny but hey, people are saying nigger. Nigger nigger nigger, that's still edgy, right?
Then there's the acting. Absolutely dreadful. Everyone is hamming it up or not even trying. Leigh, Tim Roth, and sheriff guy just put on annoying fucking accents and everyone else was sleepwalking or wasted. Samuel L. Jackson treats his role as just one giant joke. It's straight C-list tier.
The pacing of the movie was complete ass. The movie crawls for an hour with unfunny dialogue and drawn out bullshit conversations and it takes nearly two hours before anything resembling a coherent plot emerges. (continued)

I thought the dialogue and acting was the only good thing about it
>>64285281

>>64285130
The plot only advances due to an event that has basically nothing to do whatsoever with everything that happened before, meaning that the first hour and a half or so was completely pointless wankery. There is also Tarantino's incredibly cringeworthy narration, which adds absolutely nothing and could have been excised from the movie entirely since everything described is shown anyway. This narration only occurs twice in the movie and never again, so it is hard to see why it was put in there AT ALL unless it was so Tarantino could talk about black dicks in white mouths and have a giggle.
The movie switches from a Western to a closed room murder mystery far too quickly to handle that sort of genre shift, and the mystery is then solved very quickly using information that the audience could not have possibly known, that had nothing to do with anything shown onscreen. So it's a shitty mystery too. And it's then solved via extended flashback. The flashback itself is well executed, unlike the rest of the movie, and it raises the question of why people talk about this movie as though the mystery was a central point when it lasts like ten minutes and is shitty and the movie could have just started with the flashback and progressed from there.
All pretense of being a murder mystery is then abandoned as Tarantino blunders his way towards this shitty drawn out conclusion purposely lengthened through the use of slo-mo on speech and more shitty ham acting and terrible dialogue, culminating in a hanging. But by this point who the fuck even cares. It feels like the movie ended simply because if it didn't end then it would have went on forever, and Tarantino throws in a lot of CGI blood to give his fanboys some red meat and hope they ignore what an absolute bore the rest of the movie was.
tl;dr Tarantino is a hack and this movie was total shit and I'm tired of him shitting up film with his bizarre views on race relations or whatever the fuck he gets out of this shit.

>>64286237
Too much of the dialogue is Reddit worthy and "lel this should be on a t shirt" worthy
Not even close.
I will say though it is his prettiest movie. He used the camera here better than he ever has. Other stuff leaves a lot to be desired.

>>64285281
Sorry, but everything I've heard about these flicks is that they suck; Inglourious Basterds being Jew revenge porn and Django Unchained being Black revenge porn. I have no interest in that.
Tarantino is obviously a quirky / edgy writer and director and while that means some of his movies are great, others are inevitably going to be shit.
Famous actors you think are overrated.
.
>>64287089
nice to hear that it worked as intended for an audience.
It was pretty good.
I liked Kurt Russel's character the most, he had a lot of the best lines and the way he got butthurt at finding out the letter was a fake was really adorable. The guy playing the sheriff was good but it was too similar to his character from Django, I thought Tim Roth was just copying Christoph Waltz until the reveal. As for the actual plot, I feel like it could've been done better. It's a good twist it just felt a bit limp, Channing Tatum is just way too likeable to take seriously as a villain. Even after executing two people at close range in cold blood I still look at him and think "man what a nice guy that Channing Tatum is". It felt like the plot was there as a framework for the actors to let loose than anything else.
As an aside, I noticed Ennio Morricone in the opening credits and I remembered him saying he'd never work with Tarantino again because he never gave the music enough time to play. Then I looked at the run time and I went "ohhhh" so that was neat.
>>64287472
>It was pretty good.
How could you forget Walton Goggins?! He did the best job out of them all, though I'll agree Kurt Russell was good and Tim Roth is always good.
Samuel L. Jackson stars as Samuel L. Jackson (like every flick he's in...)
>>64287929
>How could you forget Walton Goggins?!
I'm not good with names, only faces. He was good in a different way from the others, Kurt Russel just appealed to me more. Senor Bob was good too I just wish we'd seen more close ups of his face.
>>64287450
QT knows well enough how retarded his audience is. It's not surprising

WARM BLACK THINGUS
Just saw it today at a theater nearby showing it in 70mm, got the Roadshow book and everything. Not a giant movie buff either and this is my first finished Tarintino film, but this was amazing and I plan to finally finish Django and watch Pulp Fiction.
>>64281047
I saw the roadshow version in 70mm, and it was fine, but in reality screen size matters when watching a 70mm film, and the screen I saw it on was not large enough - watching a 70mm print at a place like the Cinerama Dome (I saw Ben Hur and Lawrence of Arabia there), or at the Ziegfeld in New York is very different than the experience I had of the Hateful Eight. Also, a fair amount of theaters have had to switch to the digital projection anyway.
I found the woman hot

Would have fucked all the women in the movie pham a lam, all them cowboys must of been gay to waste prime pussy like that.

Pretty much everyone in this movie was an asshole besides the innocents who got killed at the haberdashery.
In the version I watched it didn't sound like QT narrated it??

I don't understand why people obsess about "logic" in movies - with all the dumb shit that went on before, this is what you thought was stupid? It defied physical logic, sure, but narratively it made sense.

Because it takes you out of immersement.

What the fuck did you just say about Lee Van Cleef? I'll have you know he was an undisputed good-guy in For a Few Dollars More, The Big Gundown, Sabata, Return of Sabata, is a redeemed former gangster turned gunslinger in Death Rides a Horse, and is a good guy who wants revenge on a man who wronged him, but was the childhood friend of the other protagonist in Days of Anger. He is only a villain in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, and some minor support roles during the fifties for movies and TV shows.
>>64281330
My Regal has these now, but it's still a theater that needs new screens and general renovation.
>>64285130
Any movie wider than 1.76:1 will be letter boxed (which is basically all of them because even 1.85:1 is still wider), so what's the difference then between 2.35:1 or 2.76:1? All of the picture that was shot will still be on screen, there will just be more black unused space on top and bottom.

Approved list, except I don't know how much higher to rank Jackie Brown
>>64286237
Reservoir Dogs is just a little better and cleaner. It's a personal preference thing though, those two movies are interchangeable.
