It may well be that he wears his influences on his sleeve but on the whole they seem a bit capricious. His film is, I will agree with you, unique. But that doesn't salvage it from the un-polished feel and the stilted overused Tarantino movie regularities like the nicknames. Nearly every fucking character in the movie had a little 'what they call him' intro where Samuel L Jackson voiced over background info on this new person the audience was meeting. I'd be impressed if he grew a little as a writer and didnt need to side track the story just to intro a character. As it stands, it's still a so-so movie and his originality was undeniably lacking.

In reply to this comment by Sarzy:
I think that's become such a trite criticism for Tarantino, something that people pull out by default when they want to put the man down because it's easy and so many other people have done it. I mean, Tarantino has certainly said how influenced he was by "man on a mission" films when making Inglouious Basterds, but in the end, does it feel like any "man on a mission" film you've ever seen? What film, in particular, does it seem like he's ripping off here? Or director? Tarantino wears his influences on his sleeve, sure, but he generally ends up using those influences to come up with something fairly unique (with the possible exception of Kill Bill Vol. 1, which was still about a million times better than most of the schlocky kung-fu films that inspired him).

Im sure Inglourious Basterds will receive rave reviews but... (Blog Entry by JiggaJonson)

Obama is weak

NetRunner says...

The trial balloon thing is common. It's also common that the media blows an unfortunate turn of phrase out of proportion, and it could be that I'm wrong and they really weren't intentional. Intentional or not, I doubt the White House missed the feedback each "misinterpretation" generated.

But "mind games with the whole country" is not Obama sending mixed signals about the public option. Mind games with the whole country is spreading lies about death panels, socialism, rationing, and all sorts of other shit.

All I'm really saying is, Obama hasn't given up on the public option, we're still early in the process for this thing, and every draft out of every committee so far has contained the public option, so just chill, and wait and see how things turn out.

If Obama does, in the end, do something stupid like drop the public option in return for nothing but Republican votes, then yeah, we can be mad. Until then, there's more constructive things to do with your passion about health care, like pushing progressives to commit to killing bills without the public option.

Quentin Tarantino's Top 20 Favorite Movies Since 1993

DOGVILLE?! BLADE?! DAZED AND CONFUSED?! SPEED?! PUuuhhhHHHHHHHHLEAZE!
For a fellow with such a legendary palette for films, I don't think there is ONE movie on this list that passes as 'art.' And one might say that he is not naming the top 20 art film of the last 15 years or whatever. Fine. But he sure talks about these crapsters like they are works of art.
Whatevs. Jackie Brown is still an amazing movie.


I gotta say that tarentino for me burnt out in what, 1998? Starting with kill bill, he's released the most awful garbage. For someone whose first few films blew me away so much and was so ubiquitous during my childhood, i cannot believe the garbage this man is currently spewing forth in the form of films. And i loved all the standard ones - pulp fiction, reservoir dogs, jackie brown, etc.

A lot of people say "His films are tribute to <these> kinds of films! You just don't get it!" -- To that i say, well fair enough, but i've seen a few of those types of films and i enjoyed watching them. I didn't enjoy watching this film. If it's a tribute to a style of film it still has to be a good film.

There's a lot of fan boys for tarentino and m night shiteamalan. You can't just make an utter shit movie and say "it's a tribute to shit movies" ala "The Happening", you have to make it a good movie. Otherwise you could say every shit movie ever made is a tribute to shit movies.

And it's a crime to criticise these movies now. Criticise kill bill, the happening, those 2 grindhouse shitpiles, or inglorious basterds and you get laughed at: "LOL YOU DON'T GET IT LOL IT'S INTENTIONALLY SHIT"

Oh right, that makes it good then yeah!? I mean seriously, write me a list of all the movies that are unintentionally shit so that i can criticise them without embarassing myself, and leave all the intentionally shit movies alone or more likely laud them.

Amusing, but I'm surprised they didn't show the game itself.

I've seen some gameplay videos and it actually does look very amusing. Kinda has a Kill Bill feel to it, especially when she goes into her "berserk" mode.
