Quentin Tarantino is a true genius - fmgtech - 01-22-2011
Watching Kill Bill Volume 1 and 2. In my opinion true cinematic genius.
Re: Quentin Tarantino is a true genius - space-time - 01-22-2011
have you watched pulp fiction?
Re: Quentin Tarantino is a true genius - fmgtech - 01-22-2011
Absolutely, another one of my favorites.

i'm not interested in starting a range war but i disagree.
qt is not a genius.
he is a good student who learns from masters.
at best, he appropriates.
at worst, he steals.

You're funning us, right? Those two movies are entertaining -- once -- but they hardly qualify as genius.
Death Proof sucks even more.
I enjoyed Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, and Inglourious Basterds.

Rob, who would be on your short list of masters?

And who do you consider to be the "masters".
Re: Quentin Tarantino is a true genius - fmgtech - 01-22-2011
I don't want to get in a range war either. I was just saying I like his movies. But you say he steals and appropriates his movies. How did he steal and/or appropriate Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Inglourious Basterds, etc?

I could barely get through Kill Bill 1 & have no interest at all in the 2nd one.
I thought Pulp Fiction was excellent!
