Good for NOLA, but Tarantino will continue to be the In-N-Out of Hollywood: predictable but profane, polysemous and perfunctory, stolid yet sentimental, malapropos and monomaniacal for gore, and grossly overrated by people think themselves experts in the field.
Translation?

DiCaprio doesn't mess with bad movies. This one will be good.

It's ok to not like Tarantino. It's ok to be tired of his style. But to say you cannot think of one good thing that he has ever done tells everyone exactly how much credence to give to TulaneLSU's posts. Ignore him and move on, he has some kind of agenda.

I'm really excited about this movie. I am pretty disappointed that Jamie Foxx got cast over Will Smith and Idris Elba though.
I'm with you on Elba but I'd rather Foxx than Smith. I think Foxx is a really interesting/good choice.
But I'm pumped about this. As I always am with QT. AND it's a western.

not worried at all - I have faith in QT to make decent films. no reason to doubt this won;t be awesome too.

The guy who read the script basically said it was very Tarantino ish. And uninventive. Ok. So we get a Tarantino movie that we come to expect out of him. I'm cool with that. He wasn't inventive but he is stepping out to a new genre. So that's a bonus. Nothing to worry about IMO.

Tarantino, IMO, is the most overrated director in the history of film. I cannot name a single good movie he has directed.

I can't wait for this next QT flick. That's what they are, flicks. Flicks from someone who knows a lot about flicks.
It's neat that it will be his first true western, but let's be honest, he's been meddling with westerns his whole career.

Tarantino's next, Django Unchained
I'm guess this Django is supposed to be a sequel or reboot and not a remake huh?

You're entitled to your own opinion. What about "Reservoir Dogs" or "Pulp Fiction"? Can you honestly say those movies weren't any good?

None really. I think the name is more of an honorary than anything else.

he's become a characature of himself. The whole overly witty dialogue thing is getting old

Yes I can. They were outrageously horrible movies. Some people feel obliged by peer pressure to give their approval to dross. I do not.

Do you HONESTLY think Pulp Fiction was an outrageously horrible movie?
The movie that was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture?

I'm convinced this is all an act. You sit around with your thesaurus trying so hard to craft the most pretentious, outrageous posts imaginable just to get a reaction out of people. If anyone were genuinely as pompous as you IRL, they would have been beaten to death long ago.
Your act sucks. Change it up.
Posted on 8/24/11 at 3:07 pm to Douglas Quaid
You are mistaken. One, I don't own a thesaurus. Reading stimulates and educates. I read a lot. My above average vocabulary is a product of my reading. Two, my posts are hardly outrageous. I state my opinion without apologies, which may come across as pompous, only when it is disagreeable to your own opinion. I usually defend my positions, and that is usually what angers people because they come to realize that my opinions, initially thought to be outrageous, are, in fact, supported by evidence, whereas, often is the case, their own opinions have no such support structures.
I invite you to enter a dialogue on movie criticism rather than TulaneLSU criticism.
