  • I agree wholeheartedly, Mr. Tarantino!

  • @maxLeifermann Have you ever seen videos of him that are not a rec carpet event or some kind of movie festival? Because he isn't too bad when it comes to those official publications, but don't you remember that guy that went up to talk to him with a camera in his hand, and Tarantino knocked his lights out?

  • Parody of business... nuff' said.

  • @LibertyCityMayhem95 i didn't know tarrantino ever punched a guy who came up to him with a camera, that does suck :-(

  • @LibertyCityMayhem95 He seems like a pretty down to earth guy to me from what I've read -- why do you think he's an enormous prick? Just curious...

  • @EIricbrother go suck his tongue.

  • mr brown survived?

  • @CMink7777 lol might agree with you in some points, but really, don't ever bring up ratings in a movie dispute again. Thats obviously proving you care about someone elses opinion of a movie for then you should. Why would you let rating decide a choice between Reservoir Dogs and Goodfellas when A) They can't be compared and B) WHy would you ever try to compare them in the first place

  • @LibertyCityMayhem95 how could honestly type that, were you born in 95? And not a fan of tarantino? You must want to end up like Seymour Scagnetti

  • @EIricbrother thats why he is who he is....thats why hes as successful as he is and was able to go from video store clerk to where he is now.

  • @LibertyCityMayhem95

    Bullshit. Some of his movies are too ambitious, i.e. Kill Bill and Ingourious Basterds, but Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, that's top-of-the-line fucking shit. He's the mastermind of nonlinear storytelling. Sure, not the first one to do it, but INNOVATIVE doesn't even begin to describe what Quentin contributed to the idea. As far as being an "enormous prick," he's just excited about his work, and 9 times out of 10, there's reason to be.
