i find toney scotts best movie to be the Hunger so you dont like Ridley scott at all ? you do you think he makes good movies and hes not the best director ever. im confussed . anywhy i love both scott directors .also this was if some one hasnt toled you already or if you dont know already true romance came before natural born killers or did he write the N.B first .
I think Ridley Scott has made a few good movies, but for the most part is overrated.
As for your query on Natural Born Killers, Tarantino sold it at around the same time as he sold True Romance. When Stone and his collaborators started editing it, Tarantino disowned the project. To be fair I don't know how much of Donowitz was based on Stone rather than Joel Silver, but I figured it deserved mentioning.
@JimmySteller i dont under stand why Tarantino wont look at it as an oliver stone movie and understand that its smthing better than anything he could have made he all hung up on the fact his acript was changed
@dornravlin That's what I heard at least. Writer Jane Hamsher claims that both Steve Buscemi and Tim Roth were considered for a role in Natural Born Killers and Tarantino told them that he'd never work with either of them again if they accepted.
Weird thing is, I never read many comic books or watched a lot of Power Rangers, but sometimes I watch Linkara's reviews just because he can be so enjoyable to listen to.
Maybe Scott's taking a note from Rod Lurie, remaking films from Sam Peckinpah though I think i've heard some solid things about the Straw Dogs remake.
Very enjoyable flick and Scott's finest, though I find Ridley more talented at least in his early years. Tony is fairly consistent though, but I think Tarantino's writing here makes it his strongest effort and yea....no other scene in the flick comes close to the walken/hopper stand off. Great review.
Thank you, sirs (not sure which of you posted it so I'll address in the plural).
And to be fair, Ridley has overall made better films than Tony, but that's hard for me to say because I've only seen a precious few of Tony's movies. However, I'm growing to dislike them immensely in recent years. Ridley's "Robin Hood" was a regurgitated Gladiator, while Tony Scott made a terrible remake of a classic (Pelham 1 2 3) and much to my chagrin, he's apparently remaking "The Wild Bunch".
@JimmySteller Sorry that is Jim who posted the earlier comment, though Tom is a bigger fan than I was of True Romance even though I enjoyed it. I did recently enjoy Scott's Unstoppable, but I hated what he did with The Taking of Pelham 123 after loving the original. I'm kind of hoping he doesn't bring his recent rapid style to The Wild Bunch remake. I'm conflicted on him making these remakes to fairly well known films, but I guess there are many that have never heard of Wild Bunch and Pelham123

Did you realize that you were channelling Linkara with that sentence?

Great review. I hope Tarantino and Scott team up again for another project.

I'll probably see it, though whether it'll be as good as the original is in very strong question. We'll just have to see.
But if they're gonna remake every single successful classic that Peckinpah made, that'll just irritate me.
