Quentin’s quote on “if you love cinema with all your heart, you can’t help but make a good film” really inspired me to be that film maker. Years from now I will work my way nonstop to make those films that will inspire people the way mr Tarantino did for me.
Do it now. Don’t wait. It will only happen if you do it right now.
Glad to hear it mate
Best wishes 👍
Good luck bro
Tarantino is a pedo apologist with a foot fetish, where are your morals?
I love how you tell a story through interviews and what directors and famous people say instead of it being some video essay, I feel this is much more real and effective way of telling a real life story about a filmmaker.
I complete agree with you. My favorite part of these types of videos is when they describe something then play a clip of an interview or a movie but this is all clips so this entire video is my favorite part, I didnt miss the talking at all.
Uh oh, they're confusing things a celebrity tells them with facts again.
@@Jaymz95 ???
who said facts? I believe he said real life story. are you saying something is not a real life story if it is not entirely factually accurate, or has embellishments? is there good reason to think anything Quentin said was untruthful?
I have reason to suspect if you had said more , your reply would have qualified as fractally stupid (as in the longer one looks at it, the more things about it that were stupid become apparent)
@@kamalmanzukie top comment literally says that first hand accounts are an "effective way of telling a real life story." They're just not. Good way to learn what somebody wants people to know about their life. Not a great source for anything real or factual.
You are very very easily offended, perhaps you should work on that.
@@Jaymz95 so, we want stories about real life, but the important thing is we gotta do away with first hand accounts (sometimes referred to as primary sources)? got it. are second hand accounts better or worse? sounds like we might just have to throw away the idea of real life stories altogether
also, a guy can't ask a series of questions to clarify your position without being "very very offended"?
I regret to inform you that may just be projection
My dad, who worked in the film industry, met Tarantino multiple times at that video store in hermosa beach. he told me that he has always held a lot of respect for Tarantino because even years after he blew up, when my dad bumped into him at an event, he remembered my dad from the video store
that's funny, because my dad, who also worked in the film industry, said that your dad was full of shit and never met Tarantino multiple times at that video store in hermosa beach. I guess it's my dad's word against your dad's word. Also my dad was Abraham Lincoln.
@@absoluteego What was the point of this comment tho?
@@jorisramanauskas780 The comment serves two purposes: 1) it forcefully breaks the fourth wall by reminding us of an uncomfortable truth regarding online commentary, namely, that anecdotal claims are dubiously non-falsifiable; and 2) it unironically indulges the commenter's clearly-stated-in-avatar motive-to stroke itself.
@@pocket83squared Mhm, quite a splendid break down of this modern masterpiece, if I do say so myself, in literature. You really did a great job representing the heart and soul of the original text, and explaining the complexities of it. However, I believe that one could in fact add a third point to your astute observation. You see, in the ending of the text it is stated that the main character’s, who’s name we are not given, but who we know represents the author, @absoluteego, himself, father is none other than Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth US President. Not only is this meant to further back up the honesty of his character, and thus the moral dilemma of the story, as President Lincoln is known as a good man and great leader, who won America the Civil War and abolished slavery. But he gets his name from the character of Abraham, who is present in Christianity, Islam and Judaism. In fact he is the namesake of the Abrahamic religion, which includes these three, as well as some minor Dualist faiths. It is also believed by Christians that he is legally the paternal ancestor of Jesus, and by Muslims it is believed that he is also the paternal ancestor of Muhammad. Both through a direct, traceable line. But what does this mean? Well, Abraham had two sons, one of them named Isaac. Isaac himself had a son named Jacob, who was known for wrestling with an angel, or God. For this he was given the name Israel, and he was thus the father of the twelve sons of Israel, creating a connection to not just also the Jewish faith, but the Jewish homeland. It is thus my belief that the original text references the struggle for the Holy Land between these three Abrahamic religions, and the uncertainty of its future. Just like the claims of @Nincotic, who the text was written in response to, were uncertain themselves. But that is just my take on this masterpiece of modern literature!
I live youtube arguements
He shows the difference between "doing it out of passion" and "doing it for the money and fame". Tarantino is 100% passion and therefore his movies are 100% quality.
Luckily for him, his passion generates financial profit too.
I just watched an interview with David Lynch, who was talking about his relationship with George Lucas (Lucas offered him the director’s chair on “Return of the Jedi,” but he turned it down). David said “George does what he loves, and I do too. The difference is is what George loves makes billions of dollars.”
His recent movies have all been non inspiring
@@oikela the hateful eight was amazing, just cause it isnt bringing in Marvel level of money doesn’t mean its bad
@@dingusbro925 look out the story about the eightful eight, Disney and leakers really almost fucked it up
@@oikela all his recent movies are 10 times better than marvel and most shit out today
his movies feel like a love letter to movies in general. it's like those indie games who try to pay homage to the games of the past.
True, he makes movies for a specific niche.
While I don't like his movies, I can see why cinephiles like them.
@@scratchy996 no son, people aren't 'cinephiles' for liking his movies. That's just you being a pretentious cretin, get over yourself.
An excellent statement. Had to actually come here to tell you you nailed it.
The difference is he doesn't do anything surface level or half-assed. Tarantino films are Hollow Knight, not generic bargain bin pixel graphics platformer #238.
@@plebisMaximushollow
Beautiful tribute to Quentin Tarantino. Nobody makes movies like him, and nobody can truly talk about Tarantino's movies the way Tarantino does. This is supremely edited to where you can see where he got each idea for each movie and how his ideas of side projects could morph into a full fledged feature film.
He is a genius. Plain and simple. Like em or hate him, he’s one of the best.
Who the hell hates QT?

I just love the fact that we live in the world where some passionate person watches all the interviews of their favorite director and puts together a mini docu-movie for other people to watch and enjoy for free. And does it in a very tasteful way.
Thank you stranger, you made my day!
Agreed, considering how many people want to write down and repeat everything they said instead of just playing the clips like this guy.
I never did understand why the world hated Quentin Tarantino‘s movie violence? He does fun action violence! Not traumatizing realistic violence to the point where your mind literally cannot tell if you were watching something that is a real or not. There’s more violent movies out there in stupid films yet nobody cares about those? They act like he created the concept of violence in movies but it’s been around for years I just don’t understand. 🎥
Violence on the nightly news is more violent, less artful, and rarely as hilarious.
The world doesn't hate the violence in his movies though. Just a loud small minority of people did.
Lots of movie have tons violence, what you say happens in every era, it happened with the gangster genre in the 30s (one of the reasons why the Hays Code was invented), it happened again with spaghetti westerns and with movies from the 70s, and if we go back in time at the end of 19th century and beginning of 20th, verismo operas like those of Giacomo Puccini, Pietro Mascagni and Ruggero Leoncavallo were criticized for having bloody scenes, maybe even further back with plays by Shakespeare (Hamlet's ending is bloody). I think this has been happening in film since the action and western genre were invented with The Great Train Robbery in 1903, imagine the public being alarmed by seeing fake deaths on screen, same with horror genre. Let's not forget that the same thing happened with video games. Only the most exaggeratedly religious are alarmed by this.
Those people are just normies who never watched a sh*t in their life
They hate him _because_ he makes violence fun to watch! They can't handle that sort of pitch black humor.
Don't care what people say. He makes some of the best movies to this day. I usually ALWAYS leave the cinema with a good memory if i watched a movie he made. And best of all. I enjoy rewatching his movies. Something i can not say about many other directors.
Just to talk a few words with him would make my day forever.
Agreed, the guy is special.
But what do you think about the critics who claim he rips off other people's work?
I can field this one: those critics are dumb. There’s a HUGE difference between homage and rip off and it’s found in the intent and execution. Homages are love letters - references to your influences, sometimes inside jokes or Easter eggs. A rip off is straight thievery - stealing another work and attempting to pass it off as your own (obviously. Who am I, Webster?) Much of what QT deals in thematically is loyalty, betrayal, revenge, etc. - all themes from movies he loved growing up. Movies that cultivated his love of cinema. Any artist is going to echo his/her influences in their work at least occasionally and QT never tries to hide it or pass it off as his own. If anything, you could argue he shines new light and/or opens the door for audience members unaware of what he’s referring to. So maybe that’s it: homages amplify the notoriety of the influence where ripoffs attempt to… rip it off. Damn, I thought I could end that more eloquently. Ah well. In conclusion, those critics are pompous nitpicky dickheads who hate joy.
It's going to be a really sad day if he does stop at 10. He's one of the last few good directors in Hollywood who makes his own original stuff.
Kubrick is running laps around him. Amadeus, 8 1/2, Rear Window, Schindler's List, All Quiet, and probably a hundred other films are of superior quality to any of his. Just stating my opinion not tryna be a hater.
@@shavedata5436 Yeah. It’s almost like art is subjective.
i love how he talks about not wanting to make "out of touch old man movies", he doesn't just love films, he deeply respects them
"No one else can quite say my dialogue the way Sam does"
Then along comes Christoph Waltz, and you talk about pure poetry. The first time since Shakespeare if you ask me. Saying that Cervantes was pretty dam good too
Yeah, Waltz was so damned good I thought he was Tim Roth the first 1/2 hour. (That *is* a compliment btw👍)
Aldo Raine and Cliff Booth also had some awesome dialogue.
I can appreciate the self awareness that Tarantino doesn't want to make "out of touch old man movies." Even with the many controversial elements of his films, they truly are masterpieces in various ways.
There's no controversial elements in his films.
That's a good way to put what sort of director Quentin Tarantino is, yes his fascination with bare feets of women can be off-putting and weird to a certain degree but the man sure does know to make a film
I don't think I have ever been bored while watching his films, no matter what he displays on the screen I always find it entertaining, his entire filmography is just a thrilling joyride
Yeah, say what you will about the man as a person you can't deny his films are entertaining and he truly has a passion for his craft and cinema as a whole
Ok…he filming some feet.
But how is that different than Bay or Whedon movies where there is always some ass shot….which is a lot more perverting than making shots of feet
Perhaps a bit weird, but what's more weird is constantly bringing it up every time Tarantino is mentioned. The guy has a harmless kink. It's extremely tame. Just get over it and shut up about it.
@@giannisksanthopoulos4300 Exactly. Female superheroes in miniskirts is okay for these people. Tight spandex suits is totally alright. Sex scenes are okie dokie. Cleavage is great.
But FEET? HOW DARE HE?
@@TheJayson8899thank you. People act like having a foot fetish is only one rung above being a pedo and I’m bloody tired of it.
i legit thought this was a video essay on Tarantino but I'm 10 minutes in and have just now realized I've been watching interviews with him and reviews of his films. The editing you've done is phenomenal, and for someone who goes out of their way for director commentaries and interviews you've already shown multiple that I haven't seen before. Really good job man
he made me love movies so he has a special place in my heart
While it may not be the best, "Reservoir Dogs" remains my favorite.
idk why i laughed so hard at the coffee leaping out of his cup at 14:00
I can tell this will be the next genre, we've gone from video essays and documentaries about a topic to a damn Movie about the topic. Thank you for getting rid of that oversaturated crap for us.
This 💯 tired of pseudo intellectual rambling
@@tcrijwanachoudhury cut ur hair bro
I know I am late to the party but damn, this is an excellent way to do an "essay" I forgot I was watching one and I felt more like I was listening to the man tell his own story. Well done, this was a fantastic 17 mins.
I imagine Tarantino going crazy after shooting his last movie. He is so passionated about films, he can’t stop. What else would he do? Swimming in pool and writing new masterpiece
The fact that the general public see Quentin Tarantino as a weirdo but we still respect him as a director, we can't deny this man is an amazing writer and director 👍
He is an amazing director, Inglorious Bastards will always be in everyone's top list
I agree. It's in my top 5 all time favorite movies ever. One other on my personal top 5 is True Romance, another film that Tarantino had his hand in. He didn't direct or produce that one, but he did write the screenplay which to me pretty much makes it a Tarantino film.
It's not in my top list. But I do like most of his movies.
The hateful eight is my favourite. But they’re all amazing
I’d say Pulp Fiction is his stand out film, but he’s up there with Scorcese as one of top 10 directors
A collection of scenes that look cool but are incoherent as a movie.
My favorite director by far. He just finds a way to make the most ordinary things unbelievably interesting.
Quentin is really good, but you can’t deny the genius editing and directing from a single UA-cam video. Love the work you have done. Keep it up.
I love how he spills his drink @ 14:02
I would fucking love to see Tarantino be an RPG game master for a few sessions. Or even just play a character. He has that kind of enthusiasm where he gets so invested and immersed in his own stories. He's really good at conveying it to others. It's an enviable quality.
I don’t think so. While i adore many of Tarantino’s movies I think he is highly protective of his scripts and characters so I don’t think something free flowing like a table top rpg would be something he could jive with. From various interviews from people working with him as well as himself, he wants to tell HIS story and wants it to be told his way. That is very much in juxtaposition in what an rpg is. The players take control of their characters and write their stories, the dm merely provides the world they live in, in Tarantino’s world building his characters intrinsically tie everything together. That’s his strong suit as well, his characters and their interactions are the glue of his movies. He mentions his characters like a million times in this video alone lol.
A good video essay is one that you cant even tell is an essay, like this masterpiece. This was an amazing way of telling tarantino's story, you deserve way more subscribers
I am glad you didn't talk over the clips or say " quintessentially he is a great director of our time " like most ytubers would do. you did a remarkable job of putting these clips together and allowing these clips to show why he is a great director who makes great films
He did it for the passion, never for the money. He is unbelievably dedicated to the craft. He is always utterly confident in his decisions and direction, and rightfully so. He has no problem telling the studio that it's his way or the highway. And, maybe most importantly, he had two very successful movies out of the gate, which gave him the industry cred to do whatever he wants. It also helps that hes very smart with his budgets.
This is the second video I've seen that's talked about Quentin Tarantino and ONLY used dialogue from interviews with him. Really goes to show the energy behind his words. Great video!
An eye-opening experience for me was reading some Elmore Leonard novels, The dialogue is so Tarantino-esqe. It's very clearly an inspiration.
Jackie Brown is his most slept on movie ever! I swear every black household I’d been to had a tape of this movie. It really became, what I like to call, “A hood classic”.
I like that he just writes a story, and then just kind of retroactively retcons it with whatever he seems to think would make it more interesting and deep until he finally has a an awesome script for a movie
Great editing. Was seamless, thanks for the hard work and sacrifice. 🙏🏻 ❤
Without a doubt, Tarantino is one of the most iconic names in cinema, and it will always be
He left behind a massive legacy for generations to see
He doesn't make good movies, he makes the best movies.
This man knows storytelling in movies, he knows how to captivate the audience
He makes movies well. Good movies are something different.
What a beautiful video. Props to you for having crafted it in such a cinematographic manner.
i lovehow self aware and respectuf of movies he is, and he´s right, it´s better to end his career with 10 incredible movies instead of tainting his legacy with mediocre and out of touch films. that´s how you can keep a flawless legacy of your work
True. Bummer tho.
I’ve never seen any of his films. I just can’t handle violence like his in movies. But I can tell by his analysis of film that’s he’s an amazing story teller.
That’s fair. Idk I’ve always been of the mindset of “at the end of the day, it’s just a movie” so I guess that may be way it’s never really bothered me, but I can definitely see how it may be too much for some
You may like Jackie Brown. I haven’t seen it in forever, but I don’t remember it being all that violent, especially by his standards. But if you do watch it and it turns out I’m remembering the movie wrong, then I apologize in advance lol
Hey, that's cool. At least you're being honest rather than using your dislike of his movie violence as an excuse to dismiss his movies of any substance like his most cretinous detractors seem to do.
Inglorious Basterds has the single best opening scene 👌
This was very well put together. Thanks
It just leaves me with one question? . . . The paradox of Tarantino is right there at the end of this video. There very last thing we hear him say is, “Why? Because we love making movies!” And that chorus of everyone joining in to say that with him will be familiar to his fans.
We’ve all heard that chorus on the sets of various different movies Tarantino has made. We know he means it and that he has imbued that cultural sentiment into the DNA of all his sets, and quite deliberately too. It is as much of a managerial technique as it is a call of esprit da corps, said repeatedly to ensure that everyone there gets it and that no one needs to ask why they’re doing that extra take, re-writing an extra piece of dialogue, altering the lighting one more time, or doing any task that means extra work, extra effort and extra commitment. All whilst trying to keep the atmosphere light, rather than feeling too demanding or oppressive.
And more power to him, if it works? Which I suspect it does, as he keeps repeating it on every movie set and has, by now, got a crew of reliable, familiar faces around him who all know his deal by now.
So, my question is: Is Quentin Tarantino being completely honest with himself? That chorus may well be a managerial, “technique,” but it also comes from a deeply sincere place in his soul. This guy really does, “love making movies,” and he lives and breathes movie culture from head to toe. It’s the fibre of his very existence. And, while I hear him, not wanting to make an, “old man, out of touch,” movie and wanting to leave his audience on a high, what can a guy like that actually do with himself after his, “epilogue,” is in the can?
I’ve heard him talk about writing novels, but I’ve already seen evidence that his skills as a writer are far better suited to scripts than novels. Sure, he may be happy to quite intentionally churn out some trashy, “pulp fiction,” but Cormac McCarthy he ain’t! We can not look to Tarantino for the next, “great American novel,” and he seems to know that about himself. He is a gifted story teller, without a doubt, and I count myself as a serious fan of his craft. But his gift is script writing and directing. He is about as good a novelist as he is an actor. He can get away with it in certain genres, but you wouldn’t want him messing about outside of his lane, distracting the audience.
Will he wind up an insane recluse with the impulses of a Howard Hughes figure, declining in isolation, driven crazy by his commitment to a decision that he regrets, yet too proud to reconsider it? I doubt that. But I’m not convinced that a guy like him will be able to just fade from a limelight that he has become such an integral part of? His influence on, “the scene,” will be hard to let go of. Will he become a regular TV pundit and/or accept bit parts in movies, maintaining a cultural relevance for being that guy who can’t really act but adds a little zest to a movie because of his cultural baggage? Again, I can’t see it. And he’ll soon get bored with just writing.
I guess I would hope, if he’s really committed to his semi-retirement, that he would do something important for the film industry and film makers of the future? Before his zeitgeist energy fades completely. If he were to use some of that momentum of his final movie to set up a film school or cultural centre, from which the graduates would get a prestigious head start in their careers; a place dedicated to digging out diamonds in the rough, people who wouldn’t have otherwise gotten their big break in Hollywood, now that would be awesome.
After all, it was by benefitting from his own acting class connections that he was able to get the interest of Harvey Keitel for his breakout movie, Reservoir Dogs. So, no one knows better, through personal experience, what it means to get a little help from the right people at the right time.
He could leave a legacy behind that outstrips the already monumental legacy of just his movies? Something that stands a little taller than just a filmography and sets him above the Scorsese’s, Hitchcock’s or De Palma’s of his Hollywood heritage? The, “Tarantino School,” would become a byword for quality and generate interest and excitement for the movies and film makers that come out of his institution?
Perhaps I’ve got him all wrong? Maybe he just wants to get completely out of the industry and separate himself from it once he’s done? But, here’s hoping (just from my own somewhat selfish perspective) that Tarantino has the generosity and commitment to give something back and to do something truly wonderful with all those millions he’s earned; and all that experience he has in the art form that became such a part of his DNA from childhood and so embedded itself into our DNA too. Tarantino literally changed the world, at least culturally. He could do that again?
Bruh this was beautifully written
@@riverays2521 : Very kind. Thanks. It was a damned good video.
this channel is a gem, i hope you blow up the quality of these videos is amazing, i can’t imagine the amount of time is spent going through these interviews
That video at the end was the perfect conclusion, I'm glad you used it
No commentary short documentary! Loving it
What I like so much about Tarantino is that, wether you are a fan of his movies or not, the passion he has for the medium is unparalleled. If you have listened or watched some of his longer interviews on podcasts or dvd commentarys then you know how much shit this dude has seen in his life and its crazy that after a 30+ year career the guy still has that fire burning in him. Thats something no one can take away from him no matter how much people who don't like his films try to discredit him.
Someone once said: “Love the movies, hate the fandom”
Personally, I like his movies a lot. His use of prose in his scripts are just an absolute testament to the art of screenplays. The idea you can turn your screenplay into a novel without all that overwriting, and not make it just some sort of blue print is inspiring to me. His script to Pulp Fiction I really recommend if anyone wants to learn to just purely express themselves in their scripts. I sadly have not seen Pulp Fiction since I was a kid. So I can’t tell you if the script translates well however, judging by the critic and audiences, it’s safe to say it does. I know, I know, I gotta watch it! 😂
Going back to that quote earlier, while I find it to be resonating, I do find myself making a counter argument to that. Because the fandom is what makes the filmmaker continue on to make his/her movies. Tarantino’s fandom really is…something else lol, that’s putting it very lightly. From my experience with his fans, I can’t get through one conversation without someone talking about this line from “Bastards” or this line from “Pulp Fiction.” Or this scene, or they have this poster from said movie of his. They’re passionate and that’s great. But he’s the and de facto of filmmakers; he’s not a god. I say that because a lot of the community (that I’ve spoken to, so take this as a grain of salt) look at him and praise him like he’s some sort of god figure. Which is weird I did meet him one time and…he was cool haha. Got that loveable laugh he does and the fast talking, he’s cool. Said hi, love your movies, and left it at that. But after that experience, it made me realize that these filmmakers have to eat, s**t, sleep, pay their bills just like us.
Sometimes (and god forgive me but) I wish I can tell some of these devoted fans that praise him in this regard, that “you know he’s not going to pay your bills right?” Or “he’s not a god you know?” But I don’t want to say that because I don’t want to make them feel bad or defensive, because that person who loves his movies could be your new friend…besides no one is asking for your opinion until they ask for it. Lol
Imagine getting your own fandom one day for the films you make. What then? Are you going to hate your own fandom for liking your movies? I know it’s an obvious question but this was something I was thinking about.
This took me a long time to figure out after years of envy and jealousy for popular prestige filmmakers like Spielberg, Nolan, PTA, Anderson, etc. And in the end, they’re just people who just happen to make good entertainment, that’s it. Anyway, I just needed to express this. Is there really a point to this? Am I just putting attention on myself? Maybe but I just had to get this out of my system…will I delete this comment later probably? Yeah 😂.
Great compilation Archer Green! 🙂
Thanks for your comment! You make an interesting point about fandoms, we shouldn't worship anyone really, they're just people like the rest of us.
With the case of Tarantino he's so unashamedly himself when it comes to the passion he displays both through his work and through interviews etc
The drastic over lionization of popular icons is hardly exclusive to Tarantino fans. It's kind of a root of the word you are using to have a FANatic loyalty to their hero. That's why they are called fans. However, people seem to drastically overstate the importance of fandoms, and they do it themselves mainly to feel important. The consumer base and fan base aren't exclusive to each other, people casually consume his films too because the shit is good. Tarantino would make films if no one watched but him and three friends. You have to remember some people are moved by shit in a different way than you, he doesn't have to pay their bills to have impacted their life. God is dead, people are looking everywhere for a new one.
Archie, your channel's videos have the wildest range of amounts of views 💀, keep up the good work man, you're really settling into your own formula, good titles, good topics, good editing, good writing, good thumbnails, it's like I'm watching videos that are 5 years apart when i compare your newer videos with the rest of them, awesome stuff ❤️.
Pretty cool to see someone at the top of their industry who isn’t totally taken over by their money and pride. Seems like a great dude who deserves his success!
I just love listening to him talk film , I hope after his final film he makes a streaming TV show - that would be epic , something set in the 70’s obviously
Tarantino makes amazing movies, he is my favorite director
This is so well done. Thank you for your hard work.
This and your Scorcese video is unreal man. Please keep it up because this channel will be huge.
My controversial opinion is... The Hateful Eight is his greatest movie to date. It's literally everything packed into one. I love all Tarantino films... But The Hateful Eight is THE shining light on how to write awesome dialogue, how to back track, how to create mystery, how to include everything he has learned.
I agree. Not my favorite QT movie, but probably his best. Makes you feel cold just watching it haha
My daddy led an army, he led a renegade army, fighting for a lost cause!
The foot massage dialogue when on thier way to thst apartment in pulp fiction i actually studied and fully worked out with another guy for acting classes. Even a simple seemingly random dialogue like that has purpose in a good script you get to know the characters how they think how thry act and just who they are.
Already enjoyed his work before but after that i gained a whole different appreciation for his work and since he's been my favorite director since.
This one and the Scorsese video were absolutely incredible, congrats!!
This is a good edit. I would watch a lot more about peoples careers in these formats
I'll watch anything this man directs and/or writes
great editing this video told a great story
I can’t wait for the Movie Critic. Love his movies. What a great career. Thank you Quentin.
So refreshing to hear him say "Don't wanna muddy up my filmography with out of touch old man movies." I love this man, all his films are fantastic, I'm going to watch the extended hateful eight tonight :)
Agree man he is good filmmaker actually I feel like I am going to make movie whenever I saw his movie.
You need to do more of this
Inglorious Bastards opening scene changed the way I view film.
Like him or not, Quentin is a film making genius.
I love every Tarantino movie I watch. When I saw From Dusk Till Dawn, that honestly was some of the best writing ever. It could've been one of the greatest Tarantino films until the twist, and even then it's still so good and added to it in a strange way.
QT's audience seems to overlook From Dusk Till Dawn. Rodriguez got the director credit but since QT wrote the script I can't believe he didn't play a sizable role in directing, camera work, staging, etc. QT had to have cast both Keitel from Dogs & Pulp and Clooney whom he'd directed in an ER episode the year before; Kelly Preston was Travolta's wife. RR surely brought Selma, Cheech and Trejo aboard, used his own film crew and handled the soundtrack: Stevie Ray, Jimmy Vaughn & ZZ Top, all from Texas like RR. Did you like FDTD more
than Jackie Brown?
@@DAGDRUM53 Jackie Brown is the only QT movie I haven't seen yet since it's not currently streaming on anything I have. Death Proof was also a QT movie I think was also kinda slept on for how good it was.
@@narrowx5577 I was a huge QT fan till Jackie Brown, a crushing disappointment. Kill Bill was fine, except I lived in Japan for two years and there's no way a woman would become head honcho of the Yakusa, especially one from China. Afterwards I've thought QT's films merely okay. Too much pedestrian dialogue in Death Proof, I wasn't fond of Inglourious' alt reality ending, Django broke character very badly, Hateful 8's a nothingburger, and the second I saw the flamethrower in OUATIH's trailer I knew QT wouldn't slay Margot Robbie.
@@DAGDRUM53 why on earth do you care about realism in a Taranto film? That's like complaining Terminators would never exist while watching the Terminator.
Think Jackey Brown is one of QT's best. And I personally enjoy his revisionist history in films like Inglorious Badtards, Django and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood which I think is his best film since JB. I just dig the 'f'ck history, this is MY movie' attitude.
@@samcooper2474 Thanks for the gentlemanly reply, Sam, no name calling. You mentioned reality and I'm of the opinion there's two realities, the real life kind and the Hollywood version. A certain reality has to apply in LaLa Land too for movies to work (The Departed by Scorsese is a perfect example). What wowed me about QT in Dogs & Pulp was his non-linear storytelling, displacing a key scene that spills all the secrets and saving it for Act 3. Had QT not done so most of the suspense would get siphoned off too early in those two films. In Jackie Brown there was the bag switcheroo in the mall, but that wasn't as crucial to plot pacing as Orange working undercover or QT's dazzling who-did-what-when convolutions in Pulp. Isolating a pivotal reveal and making it work later in the story is clever AND incredibly difficult to do, but QT pretty much stopped doing that quite early in his career. With the exception of Death Proof and Hateful 8, I think all his movies are still good fun. For me OUATIH was the best QT movie since Kill Bill, I didn't like him pulling the alt history gag again because second time around I saw it coming in the trailer before I even saw the movie. Had WWII and the Manson murders played out like QT rewrote them the world would surely be a better place, but wasn't my point. Django signing his name with an X in the first minutes of the film then half an hour later telling a cowboy 'the D is silent' took me right out of the story however that was nowhere near as egregious as Schultz offing Candie. QT took great pains to establish Schultz as a careful calculating dude only to have him break character and shoot Candie because 'he got angry.' The way QT wrote him the fictional Schultz would have accepted that win some lose some scenario, pay Candie for the slave and tomorrow's another day. It seemed like a poor excuse to transform Django into Superfly just to make Act 3 an hour of bloodthirsty action. Being a fan I tend to watch film essays and interviews with QT---that's another problem altogether. QT's always been a motormouth, y'know that ain't no thang, but as time went by he also became very impressed with himself and isn't shy to tell the world. Usually I can separate the artist from their art, but QT is like Sammy Hagar in that regard: when they're among a group of people Quentin & Sammy will do ALL the talking. Nobody likes people like that, add QT's outspoken laissez-faire attitude about Weinstein & Polanski (among other opinions) and QT has turned into quite an unlikable guy. I'll always go see his new film on opening day, but I ain't cutting him the slack I used to.
Loved this. Thank you.
best editing I've seen in many years, bravo
Dude, great fucking edit, I really love Quentin and his film and I’m pretty sure you love as well.
FYI: There is a comic book series of seven issues that is the official sequel to "Django Unchained," the series is entitled "Django/Zorro," and yes, it is exactly what the title suggests: Django Freedman meets and joins up with the legendary Zorro! The series was co-written by Quentin Tarantino and Matt Wagner with Esteve Polls as illustrator, the series being published by Dynamite/Vertigo Comics. It is a great series that does a great job of capturing the feel of the film and character that was "Django Unchained;" brilliantly extending Django's story after destroying "Candyland" and rescuing his wife. There are even a few sweet and subtle nods, within the comic book series, back to the story portrayed in the film, (other than just Django himself.)
Quentin is a man child dude energy and enthusiasm is inspiring 🔥🔥🔥
This is incredible editing.
Film directors like Tarantino are a dying breed as are the type of films that he makes. When Hollywood started putting emphasis on box-office rather than actual quality and the franchise over original creation, they effectively made the auteur and cinema a niche market.
The Hateful Eight is my all-time favorite Tarantino movie. Also been watching Jackie Brown a lot lately. Good movie
Gonna be honest. Hateful Eight is when I kinda stopped rating him so highly. I didn't even finish it.
@@ShermanWilliamsVideo Agreed. For me its his worst by a long shot. Just bleak and mean spirited. Looks amazing, incredible cast, well acted.....grim. As a stageplay it would be great, as a Tarantino film? Nope. But at least it evokes some emotions, which if nothin else is a credit to it.
@@ShermanWilliamsVideo Let me tell you something, I also didn't wanted to finish hateful 8, i was like its too damn long, and nothing happens till the last 30 mins, i started that movie i stopped it at 30 mins in then again i started it next day stopped 15 mins later 3rd again 15 mins, The next day i was bored out of my mind and couldn't find anything to watch so i sit down and started the movie again and When it finished, Its in my top 5 movie of all time and its never gonna fall from my top 5, i was soo fascinated by that last 30 mins i laughed and laughed, Thats why i love Tarantino, one of the best
@@ShermanWilliamsVideo It's one of those movies where everything happens in the last 15 minutes unfortunately. It was kinda good but I feel like if it wasn't a Tarrantino movie people would have said it was boring
Thanks for the video. I love the content
Excellent edit!
Quentin was the first director I really go into. My showed me his films in order when I was in middle school and it really formed the directorial view I have on movies. I’ve gotten really into film since and even though I wouldn’t put Quentin in my top 10 directors, I do think he’s one of the best gateway drugs into cinema.
actually kinda curious to see that list now ngl
Same for me. When I was young he really got me into cinema. As I’ve gotten older I’ve kinda grown out of him. He still makes entertaining films, but I don’t hold them in as high esteem. If you wanna have a good time, he’ll give you that, but if you’re looking for something with depth, he’s not your guy.
@@rustyshackelford934 interesting, who are your top 2-3 directors?
@@horrifiedbread9451 really hard to say. Several that come off the top of my head are Ingmar Bergman, Harmony Korine, Andrei Tarkovsky, John Ford. There’s plenty others though, hard to narrow it down.
@@rustyshackelford934 I’ll check some of them out thank you!
I refuse to believe he is done making movies.
I get he is depressed because of the current state of the industry (we all are), but so is Scorsese, and he is still making them...and he is 20+ years older than Quentin.
Pretty sure he said he’s planning on only 8 movies for over 15 years. He said he doesn’t want to get stale and worse as he ages
@@coldmountain199710 movies*, he's made 9 so far counting Kill Bill as one film (which he does)
I just finished his 9 movies and they’re all interesting, and though provoking in their own ways.
He is the most special director imo and love everything he does.
Quentin is a real artist. An artist does not create a story, they explore a story. True that they create the world and the characters, but that's as far as their manipulation to the story goes. Their imagination runs deep into the details, and they watch the characters interact with each other while they grab the paper and write it down. They don't know what'll happen next, they let their characters act it out, so they can direct actors to play what they seen in their imagination. It's an exploration, even for the creator themselves.
It's vastly different when compared to modern writers. Modern writers are propagandistic. They have the ending in mind before the details are being written, an agenda to fulfill. Every single dialogue happen as a mean to an end, and not as an exploratory endeavor like a true artist. True artists show it all raw, without the writer interfering directly midway to manipulate the outcome. If changes were to be made, they rewrote the basis and start from the scratch.
we need more like Quentin, he made some actor's careers with his art and now we have deteriorated immensely in quality with what is popular today
We don't really need more quality entertainment, there are many lifetimes of great cinema from all over the world, some that directly inspired Tarantino.
If anything we only need to educate people so they're capable of giving older entertainment a chance or two (that includes foreign stuff with subtitles).
As they say, "media literacy" should be higher, teach people how to find and properly consume masterpieces of human expression...
Then we would inevitably witness a flood of new creators who are no longer afraid of speaking their mind. Free from the limitations of today's landscape.
@@nelisezpasce 👍
One of the greats of all time and arguably the greatest of his time.
For me, Pulp Fiction is his greatest film, but Inglorious Basterds is his best.
He is a talented director and screenwriter but i wished that more people knew where all his movies stem from instead of calling him a genius or innovator. He's just a reference machine basically. In his scripts he even uses terminology such as "shaw-brothers zoom" instead of crash-zoom.
I so want Quentin to make a horror movie. I know he doesn’t think he can pull it off, but that a load of bull.
BRUH if annyone prob could make it amazing IT IS him he has already so MANNY horror elements in his movies
I would never argue that Quinton doesn't make good movies.
I would argue however, that his work is greatly influenced and sometimes completely lifted from other movies. But being such a cinephile as he is, at a certain point I don't think he has a choice. As he's not doing it consciously, he just has a better mind for putting a new spin on older works he loves, than he does coming up with something completely original.
The amount of passion he has for the job, I wouldn't be surprised if he does more than 10 movies.
Tarantino, Kanye, Kobe, etc all have the same personalities. And that personality can best be described as an unwavering love and respect for their craft, with the drive and passion to be one of the greats in their field. An obsession that can take you completely out of reality in an attempt to chase your greatest passion.
It's rare when you see someone like Tarantino. I'm glad people are giving him his flowers while he's still here.
nothing will change my mind. he does not make good movies!
'cause he makes the greatest movies.
(video is great)
Nice video! Thank god this video and this channel appeared in my home feed! You seriously have a lot of potential my friend! I wish you great amounts of happiness and success! :)
Tarantino doing de Palma scrapbooks is very funny. If he was a zoomer he would be a letterbox user and make edits on tiktok
he is the greatest director since the 1970s and you decided to declare "he makes good movies"... the opening to Jackie Brown is better than most movies, and all it is Pam Grier showing up for work... i first saw Pulp Fiction and only wanted to rewatch it as soon as i finished it, and Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is the only reason i would sit through a new release in a theater... also, he wrote True Romance an awesome movie rarely mentioned... fax!!!
Once upon a time in Hollywood is such a gem of a movie, so cool and interesting
He reminds me of the Beatles. Rock N Roll was their religion from an early age. They immersed themselves in it. With Quinton, it was films, all kinds. he picked things up and used them and it shows. Pulp Fiction was the first film I ever saw that put the scenes out of order.
When was this a question? He's a living legend.
Oh yeah he makes fantastic films.. that does not make him a legend.
@@mr.melendez3872 what he do wrong
I disagree. People over hyped the hell out of Pulp Fiction. I could critic this movie till the cows come home. I'm sure it has its cult classic people but it's not an all time great movie in my book.
Why not
