What's the point of his movies?

They're okay, I guess, but it just feels like style over substance.

The style is the substance

>it just feels like style over substance
You answered your own question.

I tried watching The Hateful Eight but just couldn't get into it.

Blah, blah, everyone yammering about some stupid fucking letter for 40 minutes.

fpbp

He went to films.

Yes and wtf is the "point" of any movie?

I mean, usually movies have something to say, even if it's not very original. Like Citizen Kane is about how power corrupts, The Godfather is about how a well-intentioned person can still succumb to evil, etc. Most Tarantino movies are just people killing each other and talking about feet.

It's entertaining, ya dingus

he makes movies that are the very definition of "it is what it is"
they are all a cheap pastiche of better movies

Why do you need to be told the same old lessons over and over? Its why so many movies are so stale.

OP is one of those people who stops watching the Big Lebowski half-way through because it's dumb.

Entertainment

Not true. The Big Lebowski is a good movie with a lot of heart and intelligence.

So is Kill Bill

and no I'm not memeing you. It's a gory east/west style flick but it has a lot of messages about relationships and revenge which supplement the style

stories don't need to be heavy handed to convey some sort of message. Tarantino movies still tell a narrative and you can take something away from each one.

>Most Tarantino movies are just people killing each other and talking about feet.
Well there you go then. He made those movies to show us that people are shit and feet are God's gift to mankind.

>and no I'm not memeing you.

I believe you, I know actually stupid people post here.

to spread feet fetishism

>we share the board with these "people"

He *used to* make movies that were intended to be enjoyable to everyday people and original, which was really nice compared to the millions of other agenda-pushing award-baiting or just general circlejerky films.

Now he just makes movies for himself

>group of people talking
>something goes wrong
>shit gets ultra violent
>good guys usually die

>What's the point of his movies?
To help you have a good evening after work. That's literally all movies are made for.

...

Jackie Brown was mature Tarantino who found the right balance of story/characters/style.

People hated it. The cucks.

I enjoy all his movies, but JB shows what that man could have been as a director.

...

>What's the point

I stopped reading right there. You are a child. Or you have the mind of a child, whatever.

he is more of a writer than director he even say it himself lets be real here the guy is pretty goat

ww2 fucking jew brigade behind enemy lines doing partisan warfare apache scalping nazies and shit thats pretty brilliant idea for a movie

also i love how he take dead careers or literally who and make them stars over night i give this to him

it never really got much better t b h. Even I started getting claustrophobic because the movie dragged on forever and they just stay in the cabin for the entire 3 hours

>lets be real here the guy is pretty goat

The 1 thing i'll give it to Tarantula for is he gets better performances from his actors than any other director in the business

Though some of his movies have some very campy acting/directing (Uma Thurman in kill bill)

can you imagine that years ago this place was actually good shitposting was low and people discussed various subjects about movies and tv shows its painful to go back in memories of a better times

but Kill Bill is supposed to be campy in both acting and directing. It's a direct sendup/homage to 70's and 80's action flicks, which were usually filled to the brim with hammy acting, hyper-choreographed fights, a clear plot without a whole lot of twists, and often some sort of east-west thing, with the Mafia or Yakuza, martial arts and swordplay, etc.

Kill Bill takes all those elements and ramps them up to 11, while adding a dash of old-school anime and the usual Tarantino emphasis on dialogue, characters, and style.

it didn't work for me, most of the other characters seemed to get it right but watching Uma ham it up makes my head turn away from the screen

Uma might be the worst part of Kill Bill movies, but those are still great.

>What's the point of his movies?
He does the cinematic equivalent of name dropping. Every few minute it's "You remember that scene in A by famous director Z? I saw that and I'm just putting this in my movie so you know that I saw that"

>Like Citizen Kane is about how power corrupts
That's a really dumb interpretation you have there, famalam

At least all of his movies are distinguishable, you can easily tell if it's made by him, can't say the same with other directors.

>Jackie Brown
That's the only one I really like.
I can deal with Reservoir Dogs too.
Pulp fiction doesn't rewatch well after all the years. Everything else is shit!

that one about a nigger slave is his lowest point imo, too bad leo was in it

90% of directors do that all the time, but they pretend that it's their ideas.

Watch a bunch of 30s/40s movies and you'll never see modern cinema the same way ever again. Fucking hacks. At least Tarantula doesn't pretend.

he needs to go back to his crime shit

>literally just found out 2 seconds ago that Quentins middle name is Jerome

Well, then say something new with your movies. Just because everything's already been said doesn't mean you can skip saying anything at all.

>more of a writer than director
Literally what? He's a superb director but his writing is all tragically bad at this point.

???
True Romance
Natural Born Killers

He makes movies so he has an excuse to release soundtracks.

>at this point
>lists movies from twenty years ago
At least before his writing was original, if not intelligent, and led to an enjoyable movie. Nowadays, he doesn't write stories, but rather he only writes setup for shots that he thinks will look cool and makes the eye candy and cool looking shots the actual experience. It's sort of like porn. There's setup for the sexual images (the pizza guy comes to the door) but it really isn't a story, it's still just setup for the main spectacle. Yes, I'm saying Tarantino does porn-tier writing, and I think I'm not that far off the mark.

he's really shit

only plebs without any intellect like his films

He's a shit director. Once you get over all of the cool stylistic things he gets, you realize he's not original and makes some really stupid movies. His earlier work was good, but newer shit like Inglorious basterds and Django Unchained are complete shit.

He still write good dialogues. You're right about the rest though.

>this shit is shit its just shit

love this pleb speak. Such lower class gutteral spewings

prove that he isn't shit then you fucking sperglord faggot
