Who the fuck does this guy think he is? Quentin doesn't even know the fucking characters name, although he has seen it multiple times. He says gold when in fact Daniel PLAINVEIW is mining silver at the beginning.
Quentin, you obviously don't understand this film, or any film for that matter. Paul Thomas Anderson is eons ahead of you and although I see Kubrickian influence in this, I also see a blatant rip off of this near perfect cinematography in your Inglorious Basterds.
@JerseySnooze Calm down, he made some harmless errors, let's not act like we all haven't done the same thing from time to time. And if you've got a beef with the cinematography in Basterds, take it up with Bob Richardson (who just won another Oscar btw).
I love QT, however, I must completely disagree with his comments on Paul Dano. I think it was the performance of a life time. I think he was as good, if not better, than Daniel Day Lewis. Not a popular opinion, but it's my opinion.
@Redmist2000 I wouldn't go as far to say "better", but I thought he was fantastic as well. A lot of people saw him as over the top, I liked that about the performance.
@Redmist2000 ...as good or better than DDL's performance....are you insane?! that performance by DDL in this movie was the BEST acting performance of all time IMO.
Interesting how QT criticises Paul Daniels' performance, especially coming from a director of his calibre. I couldn't disagree more with him, as ~I though Daniels' mealy-mouthed, self-obsessed preacher to be the flipside to Daniel Day-Lewis'. In other words, the perfect foil, a reflection of both mens personal vanity and greed. His performance was extraordinary, especially the subtle nuances when suppressing his own rage. Both men were astonishingly good in this film, in their respective ways.
im going to watch 'there will be blood' sometime again in the next few years but as of now its the most overrated piece of crap ive ever seen. its going to take a few years to prepare myself for the boring drubbing im in for. seriously though, nobody saw the ending of the priest coming? i saw it coming for 45 minutes.
To me "There will be Blood" is about the unabashed, shamelessness of Capitalism. The film explores the origins of one of the main industries of Capitalism, the oil industry. "There will be blood", foreshadows what's to come from industry and Capitalism, whether it's the violence depicted in the movie or all the way up to the modern day, specifically the blood spilled in the wars in the Middle East, in which oil appears to have played a significant role.
The only one who actually thought they were competing was Eli Sunday. DP had to use him where it was useful, because Eli had some influence on the townspeople. But once Eli's value had run up, and and old DP was way past the point of being amused by leeches any more, he just ended it once and for all because he was done playing... "I'm finished!" That is literally how he looks at it, as a game, and he the ultimate competitor. He had beaten the game and there was only one loose end to tie up...
So the reality of the situation is, (as Tarantino I think got it wrong) that in Daniel's mind, Eli was no more a competitor than a door is to entering a house. Eli was just like any other person or situation he had already encountered a hundred times over in his career. The only difference with Eli was that it semi amused Daniel at this weakling's plight. His weak attempt to be a "somebody" was comical to Daniel, much like a cat who toys with its prey, when it could crush it on a whim
Eli Sunday is not at all what he seems. He wanted lust and riches and success like anyone else... and his plan, that he thought would work, is to go through the church. But, soon he realized that he was a nobody and the only time he enjoyed any success was when Daniel was around. Daniel never respected Eli because he knows nothing about the pain and work of building a true monument. So the whole time Eli was at best a fly buzzing at his ear, a nuisance.
However the point he is making about paul dano's performance is wrong in my opinion. The reason he doesn't even compare to DDL is because Eli Sunday is of no comparison to Plainview. That is the whole point, Eli thought he could be like Daniel but he was just a much lesser competitor, who didn't understand what it took to go out and make it for yourself without riding someone else's coattails. So if Dano's performance seems in any way fake... it's because it is... that is Eli Sunday's character
GREAT, and perfect analysis of this movie... the stuff he is talking about around the 5 minute about the beginning is so on point and I totally agree.
vudu8ball@ Plainveiw's anger could be theorized in many different ways. I think if one lives long enough , one will come in contact wi a very angry & unhappy person . People that chase after riches ( to this degree) often have this kind of anger. I think that THEY think by getting rich , they will become happy and not as agitated about life & people . Unfortunately become rich will not grant u those things.
It's a great movie, mostly because of Daniel Day lewis interpretetion, but I always felt that his character is broken. I watched the film three times and I always had the feeling that the character is turning bad suddenly. There is no warning, there are no premises in the first half for what is he becoming. And that left me with a regret because I started to be attached by that strong type man character.
@touretul I think its pretty clear early on that he's a total misanthrope who couldn't care less about anyone else. The only reason he takes the boy is because he sees an opportunity for himself to make money. Or take the oil rig explosion; his adoptive son has just lost his hearing but what's most important to him is that he's just discovered an ocean of oil under his feet. He's bad from day 1.
@grindhouse141 yes, but you find that only at the end of the movie. at the begining you think that his a lonely father. actually, you find his dark soul only when he talks with his supposed brother after the first half and tells him that he doesn't want enyone to succeed.
and the accident of his son it's not a clue. he rescued him and then he took care of his job. at Cernobil do you think those man run with there families or stood there to fight the catastrophe? same thing at Fukushima.
@touretul You're wrong about the oil explosion. After the situation is somewhat under control Ciarán Hinds asks Daniel how his son is doing and Daniel acts like "how could you possibly be talking about anything other than the fact that we just discovered an ocean of oil." And Hinds gives him this very telling look and then walks off to check on Daniel's son. And in the earlier scenes it's not so much what he says, it's the expressions on his face that tell us everything about him.
@grindhouse141 Completely agree with you. I finally watched the movie for the first time after hearing and reading so much about the character and DDL's acting in it. There is so much depth to DDL's acting, but also the music with the violins give you a hint right off the bat, from the very first scene, that this is a man driven by dark intentions.
@TheWiggie22 like when it gets intense as day lewis and the kid go up the hill and 'dun dun dun' theres nothing on the other side. intensity for nothing. my brain yawned for 10 minutes after that
@grindhouse141 - Daniel Plainview is very much the anti-hero, and I think people can perceive his relationship to H.W. in different ways - but I think he loved H.W. all the way to the very end. I thought Paul Thomas Anderson gave a notion of it when showing a very quick brief flashback of Daniel playing with H.W..
@vudu8ball it's in his nature, but I believe there is a problem with the script that we know about it only when things... well, start to happen. In my opinion there's a fault of the script. It doesn't flow natural. There is a rapture in it.
@touretul I agree. If it is his nature we need a scene where young Painview strangles a cat or something equally vile to set up what follows. Still and all this movie creates a powerful emotional atmosphere.
I find myself struck by Tarantino's assessment that Plainview is to some extent exonerated from his latter days sins simply because of the superhuman effort implied in the opening scene.
I think There Will Be Blood is Anderson's masterpiece but Magnolia is his best movie.The part where I completely agree with Tarantino is when he said this movie "DEMANDS" to be seen twice before talking about it. Is a whole new kind of sub-genre if you will, some sort of dark drama without being horror or thriller
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this movie is Day Lewis. he's awesome, but the rest of the movie is not that good. as a whole, is an overrated movie. ofc Day Lewsi deserved 5 oscars.
@grindhouse141 no I am not, but we can have our tastes. This movie is too cold and too much is charged on Day Lewis'shoulders. A full hour of it is redundant if you think at the linearity of the plot. But I don't think this makes There Will be Blood a bad movie and not even an average one. It's a great movie that simply failed to be a masterpiece.
@suskistube Just know that you are the only person who thinks that. There Will Be Blood has received universal praise as a masterpiece, the same way films like The Godfather & Dr. Strangelove did when they came out.
@grindhouse141 I beg to differ: in europe the movie has not received as much as praise as it had in USA. it's much like The Godfather part III: a missed masterpiece. but, of course, it's just people's opinion. Maybe you and many others where touched by this movie more than others.
@suskistube I don't know who you're talking to but There Will Be Blood was a hit in Europe as well as in the U.S. Foreign territories made up 47% of the films box office take. In London The Telegraph, Total Film & The Guardian all gave it rave reviews. It was nominated for the Cesar award in France, in Sweden it was nominated at the Guldbagge awards, it was also celebrated by various critics and award groups in Italy, Ireland, Spain and Canada. Your unsubstantiated claims will not be tolerated.
@calebdengler1 I agree, but. It still holds water. Nationally people know QT more than PTA. So who wins? I am a huge fan of PTA, but QT does get more of the.... facetime.
I have to agree with QT on watching There Will Be Blood more than once..I was so excited to watch There Will Be Blood that when I finally saw it I literally said, "What a boring piece of Shizer this movie is"...Then it was on TV and I watched it again..and I said "damn..isn't DDL captivating" I like it a tad more..then I found myself watching There Will Be Blood Everytime it was on TV..Then I bought it..and realized it is one of my top 10 films. Daniel Day Lewis IS the set piece in this film
In my humble, not to take ANYTHING away from the gifted Daniel Day Lewis....he used the voice of John Huston as an entry way into the character in this film
Love tarantino's commentary. Down to earth , says it how it is , very thorough with how he articulates. Him , Paul, Martin, Akira, Ridley, PJ, Fincher, Coppola, Nolan, and Kubricks brilliance are all my favorites, but Tarantino and I are eye to eye when it comes to cinema.
When I first heard of tarantino it was through others films with trailers with deep voices like "Sin city , with guest director Quentin Tarantino" and I was like thats an awesome name lol. Later though i saw why it stood out
I really don't understand why QT and people in the comments are comparing IB and TWBB. They are two completely different movies that take place in different time periods that have to do with different historical events. PTA and QT have different styles. QT has tons of interesting dialogue while PTA has exciting camera movement and tells his story through visuals. They're different.
Magnolia and There Will Be Blood are superb. I prefer both to Boogie Nights. PTA is THE filmaker around today. My other favourites are Jason Reitman and Darren Aronofsky, but PTA is like Day Lewis. Godlike.
@dabearcub Just went on your page. So you're a loser gaming nerd and you use the racial insult nigger? You've vindicated my taste in filmakers. Thanks.
He will eventually he loves films and other films entirely too much right now. When he gives his commentary it will be legendary. Look forward to the Kill BIll ultimate edition.
@ianmacsmith FUCK YOU!! FUCK YOU!! YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THE BRILLIANCE OF DANIEL DAY LEWIS!!! FUCK YOU!! FEEL MY FLAMES YOU SONOFABITCH!! FLAME OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNN!!!
With all due respect, you're wrong about one thing Quentin. Paul Dano's performance was precisely what it was suppose to be. Daniel Plainview's character is immense & larger than life. Eli's character isn't suppose to be in the same class as his... To illustrate my point about Paul Dano's job, I think it's obvious that the only thing that's held back Daniel Day-Lewis before There Will Be Blood and Gangs of New York is a well written character that would allow him to fully showcase his abilities.
I think Paul Dano was great. I heard that Daniel Day Lewis personally commended him for that role. Well it's true that you can't compare him with Daniel Day Lewis, anyway I think he acted well.
I think inception was GREAT! But I think what a lot of u are saying is true it was great. But what makes a masterpiece is its epicness. Kind of like you knów 2001 and There Will be blood they are epics. 2001 had a longass intro but it fucking worked. I was anxious to sEe inception and its cool and all but the acting was mediocre I mean it was like a watching a really good soap opera. The thought of it was only really good like oh cool a dream within a dream.
What's awesome about Tarantino is in addition to making these awesome movies, he's an obsessed movie fan himself. A movie junkie. The dude could fill 20 books with his movie knowledge
@AdamR702 Sorry, but Inception was so easy to watch and understand that it actually kind of sucks. I wanted Eraserhead or 2001, I got Dark Knight with a worse script.
But it wasn't a terrible movie, I just didn't like it.
Well said. It works as an entertaining rollercoaster ride, but sadly the pretentious undertone and the hordes of kids saying:"You didn't understand it, it's so deep!" made me repulsed by it. With repeated viewings the many flaws become apparent.
Time will tell. It will have its time in the sun and in a decade few will mention it.
Why list those when this whole video is about Quentin Tarantino's opinion of Paul T. Anderson and "There Will Be Blood"??
No need to be vague. Inception is vague in itself and fails to follow even the rules set by whoever wrote the script. Read some of the excellent bad reviews on Imdb, most of them by people who saw beyond the fancy special effects (the same reason Cameron's Titanic made people look past the cardboard characters) and the rapid cuts.
@McLarenMercedes I understand films a lot more complex than it, so seeing it was so obvious that I'm underwhelmed when people try to dissect it. I've found one particular reason why the whole "it might be a dream" thing is a lost cause, due to a logical error. It's one of those movies that works for what it tries to be, but doesn't surpass it's worth. And then The Amazing Atheist called it the greatest film of all time... ya right.
The Amazing Atheist disappointed me when he said that. For a man that mention's Kurosawa's classics that is just unbelievable. There's people that still think "Star Wars" is the best movie ever made (heck it often tops popular polls) or that "Titanic" is a totally flawless film (they often use the 11 Oscars and record box office as proof). If you ask a thug/punk they all think "Scarface" is the best movie ever. With that in mind I wouldn't listen to whatever is popular with kids now.
@McLarenMercedes I'll continue to say for the rest of my life that 2001: A Space Odyssey is the best film ever made. It's definitely one of the most important films ever made, and despite complaints about it making no sense, being boring, or having nothing going on, I think it's a fantastic film and I wish people would pull more from it. The only thing people care about with that movie is it's special effects.
I have to say, Tarantino sounds a little deluded when he speaks of PTA as being his greatest contemporary and competitor. Truth is PTA surpassed him long ago. Perhaps if we were in the 90s Quentin would have a right to talk in such terms, but where his evolution as a filmmaker has stalled (even gone backwards arguably) PTA has soared. There's no longer much comparison between the two except as cause to belittle QT. Anderson is on a different level, and the gap is only going to widen.
@armandm85 compared to there will be blood? there is a soft spot in my heart for a priest getting raped by a bowling pin, but the fucking thing could have been cut down by an hour. as much as I liked it, there are so many irrelevant scenes that could have been shortened or removed, or better yet replaced by things that should have happened. calling a film self indulgent is like calling charities greedy.
You wish, QT. If you want to compare things with actors, than There Will be Blood is Robert Mitchum and Inglourious Basterds is Andrew Dice Clay. Sure, it has it;s funny moments, but there is no comparison.
He has a choice, but he's so emotionally unrefined and hardened that he doesn't see the choice.
Just like Eli is so emotionally refined and softened that he doesn't see the choice to be rational.
Eli has the traits that Daniel needs to be a great person (and I'm not talking about religion here, but something completely different), and Daniel has the traits that Eli needs to be a great person (rational thought, secularity, etc.).
The only time I have 2 disagree with Tarantino, Paul Dano's performance in this film is pure gold, it just was near a diamond, for it to shine as much. His performance is to be admired for its bravery and his delving research in to his character even though he only had 2 weeks to prepare for his role.
Oh yes, I'd say DDL and PD gave equally great performances, all thanks to equally great directing from PTA.
The scene where Sunday walks across the field of oil to challenge daniel for his money, it starts off looking like he's walking across the sky (reflection), but when shown from a lower angle where the glare isn't so great, it looks like mud and shit, and that's where Daniel drags him.
But to be slapped around and dragged across a field by the hair: that's good acting.
Sorry, but I kind of laughed when Tarantino basically compared his Inglourious Basterds to Anderson's There Will Be Blood. It just shows how big Tarantino's ego is.
@UtubeHyperboleGuy You and all six people who liked your dumbass comment are dense. At the time of this critique he was still developing Inglourious Basterds. He was saying that if anything great comes out of that movie it was because PTA's There Will Be Blood inspired him to do better as a director. How the FUCK does that constitute having a big ego? Your comment his literally the dumbest thing I have seen all day. Jesus Christ...
I feel, even though I love Quentin's work, that he could never make a movie like TWBL. He would ruin ut by putting modern humor in it and various texts popping up retelling history or something. Still be a great movie. I mean, this is Quentin Tarantion for god sake.
Who the fuck does this guy think he is? Quentin doesn't even know the fucking characters name, although he has seen it multiple times. He says gold when in fact Daniel PLAINVEIW is mining silver at the beginning.
Quentin, you obviously don't understand this film, or any film for that matter. Paul Thomas Anderson is eons ahead of you and although I see Kubrickian influence in this, I also see a blatant rip off of this near perfect cinematography in your Inglorious Basterds.

grindhouse141 2 months ago 4
@grindhouse141 I beg to differ: in europe the movie has not received as much as praise as it had in USA. it's much like The Godfather part III: a missed masterpiece. but, of course, it's just people's opinion. Maybe you and many others where touched by this movie more than others.
suskistube 2 months ago
@suskistube I don't know who you're talking to but There Will Be Blood was a hit in Europe as well as in the U.S. Foreign territories made up 47% of the films box office take. In London The Telegraph, Total Film & The Guardian all gave it rave reviews. It was nominated for the Cesar award in France, in Sweden it was nominated at the Guldbagge awards, it was also celebrated by various critics and award groups in Italy, Ireland, Spain and Canada. Your unsubstantiated claims will not be tolerated.

Daniel Day Lewis IS the set piece in this film

Love tarantino's commentary. Down to earth , says it how it is , very thorough with how he articulates. Him , Paul, Martin, Akira, Ridley, PJ, Fincher, Coppola, Nolan, and Kubricks brilliance are all my favorites, but Tarantino and I are eye to eye when it comes to cinema.
When I first heard of tarantino it was through others films with trailers with deep voices like "Sin city , with guest director Quentin Tarantino" and I was like thats an awesome name lol. Later though i saw why it stood out

QT has tons of interesting dialogue while PTA has exciting camera movement and tells his story through visuals. They're different.

With all due respect, you're wrong about one thing Quentin. Paul Dano's performance was precisely what it was suppose to be. Daniel Plainview's character is immense & larger than life. Eli's character isn't suppose to be in the same class as his... To illustrate my point about Paul Dano's job, I think it's obvious that the only thing that's held back Daniel Day-Lewis before There Will Be Blood and Gangs of New York is a well written character that would allow him to fully showcase his abilities.

I think inception was GREAT! But I think what a lot of u are saying is true it was great. But what makes a masterpiece is its epicness. Kind of like you knów 2001 and There Will be blood they are epics. 2001 had a longass intro but it fucking worked. I was anxious to sEe inception and its cool and all but the acting was mediocre I mean it was like a watching a really good soap opera. The thought of it was only really good like oh cool a dream within a dream.

@grindhouse141
Why list those when this whole video is about Quentin Tarantino's opinion of Paul T. Anderson and "There Will Be Blood"??
No need to be vague. Inception is vague in itself and fails to follow even the rules set by whoever wrote the script. Read some of the excellent bad reviews on Imdb, most of them by people who saw beyond the fancy special effects (the same reason Cameron's Titanic made people look past the cardboard characters) and the rapid cuts.
McLarenMercedes 4 months ago
@McLarenMercedes I understand films a lot more complex than it, so seeing it was so obvious that I'm underwhelmed when people try to dissect it. I've found one particular reason why the whole "it might be a dream" thing is a lost cause, due to a logical error. It's one of those movies that works for what it tries to be, but doesn't surpass it's worth. And then The Amazing Atheist called it the greatest film of all time... ya right.
Bassbait 4 months ago
@Bassbait
The Amazing Atheist disappointed me when he said that. For a man that mention's Kurosawa's classics that is just unbelievable. There's people that still think "Star Wars" is the best movie ever made (heck it often tops popular polls) or that "Titanic" is a totally flawless film (they often use the 11 Oscars and record box office as proof). If you ask a thug/punk they all think "Scarface" is the best movie ever. With that in mind I wouldn't listen to whatever is popular with kids now.
McLarenMercedes 4 months ago
@McLarenMercedes I'll continue to say for the rest of my life that 2001: A Space Odyssey is the best film ever made. It's definitely one of the most important films ever made, and despite complaints about it making no sense, being boring, or having nothing going on, I think it's a fantastic film and I wish people would pull more from it. The only thing people care about with that movie is it's special effects.

I have to say, Tarantino sounds a little deluded when he speaks of PTA as being his greatest contemporary and competitor. Truth is PTA surpassed him long ago. Perhaps if we were in the 90s Quentin would have a right to talk in such terms, but where his evolution as a filmmaker has stalled (even gone backwards arguably) PTA has soared. There's no longer much comparison between the two except as cause to belittle QT. Anderson is on a different level, and the gap is only going to widen.

He has a choice, but he's so emotionally unrefined and hardened that he doesn't see the choice.
Just like Eli is so emotionally refined and softened that he doesn't see the choice to be rational.
Eli has the traits that Daniel needs to be a great person (and I'm not talking about religion here, but something completely different), and Daniel has the traits that Eli needs to be a great person (rational thought, secularity, etc.).
But they fight, so they miss out. Hence title

The only time I have 2 disagree with Tarantino, Paul Dano's performance in this film is pure gold, it just was near a diamond, for it to shine as much. His performance is to be admired for its bravery and his delving research in to his character even though he only had 2 weeks to prepare for his role.

@waiting4smtin
Oh yes, I'd say DDL and PD gave equally great performances, all thanks to equally great directing from PTA.
The scene where Sunday walks across the field of oil to challenge daniel for his money, it starts off looking like he's walking across the sky (reflection), but when shown from a lower angle where the glare isn't so great, it looks like mud and shit, and that's where Daniel drags him.
But to be slapped around and dragged across a field by the hair: that's good acting.
