Gotta love Quentin! This clip is just brimming with the enthusiasm he has for X:WP. And not only does he love the show, he loves it for the right reasons.
Even if Tarantino didn't have anything to say about this show as long as what you enjoy doesn't negatively conflict with or hurt others you should feel no shame in liking what you like.
@@MJforlife-777 I used to watch it when I was a kid and I just found a TikTok of the show and I remembered that I used to like it. I’m 28 and I currently on season 4. I’m literally obsessed with it! It’s so good I’m just watching every video I find here on UA-cam about Xena 😂
Xena was a TV show and then they make a movie..... have you actually ever watched Xena? and im not talking about an episode or 2, because that wouldn't make your opinion calling it "crazy" as valid. People might not care to watch it today because of so many action fantasy shows, but Xena even though it has its campy moments is superior as a show than many high rated action shows today. Did you knew that the US army has a program called Xena, thats developing armor for female soldiers? Im pretty sure the show had and still has a a pretty big impact on people. If Quentin Tarantino, one of the most brilliant directors ever says the show is amazing, deep and interesting, then the show is pretty amazing. As for crazy, it is crazy but in a very good, funny and positive way.
so glad i was able to watch it and understand it growing up even though i was a kid, Xena and Hercules were the best show to watch on channel 5, along with tribe and daria.
Xena's story is the best story ever made. The tv series we watch now are in a very low level. The new generation can't realize that bc they didn't use to watch shows with deep stories that has a significance. It's not worth the good job at the effects part if the story isn't good. Quentin knows what he talks about. Exactly these things made me watch and stick with the xena series. I can't enjoy another show like I enjoyed Xena. They all seems to me pointless.
Xena was THE show! The story, the action, the acting...Oh God..The tv at the best moments..It's exactly how Quentin says...Only few people can understand those things that he talks about...not the masses...
As a Hungarian woman (Attila the Hun reference) that dressed as Xena once for Halloween and also a fan of Clint Eastwood and Quinton I really appreciate this.
Xena was awesome, my all time favorite show! I was sad when Netflix removed it from its service. On her story, I also couldn't agree more with him. All these years has passed and I haven't seen one character - male or female - with such a superb and at the same time more messed up passed like Xena. I was so into the last episode that I literally cried when they killed her.
The backstory of a hero with a genuinely villainous past wasn't original but where Xena differed (compared to say Angel or the development of Spike in BUFFY for example) is that it didn't insert storytelling reasons to soften that past for viewers. Angel and Spike were soulless vampires whilst UNFORGIVEN, the movie Tarantino quotes here, implies the Eastwood character was horrifically violent only when he got drunk. Xena wasn't possessed or brainwashed she simply committed horrible acts that got out of control until she snapped out of it.
Angel on his own show got confronted enough with his past and his ruthless side to make him that character, he even says that all he can do is fighting the good fight, no matter what, which implies he doesnt believe in his redemption but tries to be his best self, despite all odds now, like xena. His show deals a lot with tempting him, sometimes successful.
in kill bill beatrix counters an axe throw by catching the axe and throwing it back, but theres also and episode of xena where xena actually does the same counter, whether or not it is has a connection i do not know, its just something i realised, lol it is cool as fuck xena tho, you can actually learn alot from all 6 season.
Kill Bill was QT's love letter to Xena and those kind of films because Xena in turn was influenced by Japanese films. He even used Xena herself (Zoe Bell, Xena's stunt double) as The Bride's stunt double in Kill Bill.
Agree with you 100% Quentin! The great thing about Xena was that she was so flawed but still wanted to believe in the Greater Good and that it really meant something. She lost her way in life so badly but in finding her way back, she manages to change lives, including her own, for the better. As long as she had Gabrielle beside her as her safe guard, she might bend but she would never break.
hey where can i download xena episodes? And just for the record i used to watch xena when i was 8 and now with 18 this show still kick ass and efects are nice too
In the future there probably be a 'remake' of Xena WP. Alas it will also probably not star LL or ROC nor be tackled by the original writers, directors, producers etc. UNLESS some provision is made for same. Some Hollywood remakes are only out to make money not quality. It would have to be filmed in NZ again and the story line is possible. just my honest opinion, nothing more. Would love to see it come back but without LL and ROC....it can't.
@JACKOSTiNKERBELL Oh I know, I love Xena. It definitely has a gore factor to it, but especially those first two seasons were campy as all get out ahha.
Glad to see he loves the show, but he missed the absolute best thing about Xena: the comedy. The cast and crew were masters of slapstick, and Ted Raimi in particular is a god among men. Whether he was playing a wannabe warrior, a deadly assassin or a brush salesman posing as a French army officer, everything he did was comedy gold.
Quentin terentino or anyone could make a cartoon or anime, or a game, that way they could use the actual actors with some voice acting training, minus kevin smith(the fit one), rip god among men. That would seriously be the best rebboot. Dc studios make good cartoons.
Gotta love Quentin! This clip is just brimming with the enthusiasm he has for X:WP. And not only does he love the show, he loves it for the right reasons.
If Quentin Tarantino says a show kicks ass, you can damn well bet it's the truth.
i hope people dont judge me for loving this show so much. it would make me cry. i love this series so much.
Even if Tarantino didn't have anything to say about this show as long as what you enjoy doesn't negatively conflict with or hurt others you should feel no shame in liking what you like.
@@JustSomebody5 thanks for comment
Don’t be ashamed. I love this show as well and even one of the best directors like Quentin loves it too!
@@angu15 great i still watch it . May get a tatooif i hit 40

Tarantino knows Xena! And he lists all the great reasons to watch it. Awesome!
That was just scratching the surface of Xena.
Terantino is so entertaining when he talks. He seems to be excited about crazy movies that people generally don't want to see.

charisaob Yeah, I never watched it. It was one of those campy shows that I would only force myself to watch if it was the only thing on.
charisaob is like power rangers but with greek mithology
Xena's story telling was way ahead of it's time. Just imagine the Eve Saga with today's technology
The Eve saga was the worst storyline in the show. The Destiny arc and The Debt storyline were amazing and still hold up.
@@TINKERB121 Eve saga had bright spots but season 5 had lots of bad episodes. I agree I love those 2 story lines

Kongkos i love you so much. thanks for being open minded. found this nov 2010. still like it.
This is why I will always love Xena! Such a great story line and I learned a lot from Xena❤️🙏🏽
The truth has been spoken :D
I'm shooketh
I'm a bit shocked he knows so about much and loves Xena......
must have been a lot of feet shots
The Bride from Kill Bill has a bit of Xena influence too (pressure points)
@@TINKERB121omg you’re right! I can see a lot of influence of Xena in Kill Bill. Quentin really loved Xena
Never show your movie to Tarantino and ask for his opinion, because he'll love it. He loves everything.
Xena was THE show! The story, the action, the acting...Oh God..The tv at the best moments..It's exactly how Quentin says...Only few people can understand those things that he talks about...not the masses...
I love to give thumbs up to 12 years old comments with no like in such a large amount of time, it's something special.
I love you, Quentin.
As a Hungarian woman (Attila the Hun reference) that dressed as Xena once for Halloween and also a fan of Clint Eastwood and Quinton I really appreciate this.
I'm totally agree with Tarantino, I'm a big fan of Xena.
He's not wrong. The show is still damn good.

Wow I never knew he was a Xena fan. he should do a Xena movie! I totally agree with everything he said about the xena/callisto thing.
This makes me tear up.

Tarantino needs to make a Xena movie!!!
That's so awesome, I had no idea he was a fan. +5 cool points for Quentin.
i have always LOVED Xena!! and YES, QT should make a Xena movie!!!
wow quentins cool, im glad he likes xena, i really enjoy the movies he's done.
I still like xena because this show was not a girly show...
She's the right kind of role model for little girls.
2021 I watch xena. And the action is still better than most these days. Love it.
Lucy Lawless is the absolute perfect candidate for Wonder Woman, or at least Wonder Woman's mother.
I like you quentin
I think i love this.
happy birhtday to quentin ;) he just rocks hard!!!
Just give us that movie Tarantino! You'll be perfect for the job!
Wellp, now I'm gonna go watch Xena, thanks a lot Quentin
You know that fade cut at 1:14 means he was probably talking about the show for awhile, and they had to cut it down.
Would be great to see what more he had to say. It's understandable they have to cut it down for this documentary.
"thats just good shit!" i loled.
Xena will rule forever !!! :D
Bring them back!!! join xena movie campaign on facebook!!! we need them back
@cathytreks haha, Quentin himself didn't post the video if that's what you thought :-P
Made my fucking day!
it's interesting that you can tell indirectly how many shots of feet are in a show based on how much tarantino loves the show
wow, cool vid. thanks for putting it up.
Awesome I love it
El Rey Network gave Quentin Tarantino another reason to ride with El Rey. #RideWithElRey

If you liked Xenia, watch Spartacus. You won’t be disappointed.
OMG!! I already loved Quentin Tarantino and his movies (Kill Bill is epic!) but he just got so much cooler. he totally gets it.
Quentin makes Xena movie, it goes from campy series to blood and gore action packed fest....I'd totally watch it!
hey where can i download xena episodes? And just for the record i used to watch xena when i was 8 and now with 18 this show still kick ass and efects are nice too
My god. When they zoom into his head 2:00...
That angle makes look he came straight from the Hills.
I love how he cuts her off and says "That's good for a male character" silly woman.
In the future there probably be a 'remake' of Xena WP. Alas it will also probably not star LL or ROC nor be tackled by the original writers, directors, producers etc. UNLESS some provision is made for same.

He kind of reminds me of jocksir
Joxer the mighty?
Yea, he's a cool and really likable guy.
alright alright alright alright alright alright
lol I love Quentin.
thumbnail is just perfect
xena actually DID get redemption in the finale.
No need for Tarantino to make a movie about it. He enjoys it, and it's just fine as is. Not every cool story needs to be done by Tarantino.
I adore him not saying this is just good shit for women, this is just some good shit.
I love when he geeks out ;)
Lovwe how the guy talks hahahahah "that´s good shit" I imagine he would talk in the set sth like: " aaaand cut! that was FUcking amazing dude!!!!!!! "
he is every original
he has a great sense of humour
Last three seconds made me piss myself.
Bruce fucking Campbell is in it!
DAMN RIGHT!
This is surprising, I am impressed. Good.
Oh Quentin, you are sooo right, I just said almost the same shit about Xena the other day...great minds truly do think alike =p.
That's it, I'm watching Xena
@atalina08 She is in Spartacus on Cable.
@xXAkridXx YEAH DAMNIT QUENTIN MAKE A XENA MOVIE!
@JACKOSTiNKERBELL Oh I know, I love Xena. It definitely has a gore factor to it, but especially those first two seasons were campy as all get out ahha.
Xenu. He is a scary spacemonster...
Lady Snowblood was the inspiration for QT's Kill Bill
haha nice way to catch on
all right.
"On the bride" ...
Im glad ,I did not know this.....
Glad to see he loves the show, but he missed the absolute best thing about Xena: the comedy. The cast and crew were masters of slapstick, and Ted Raimi in particular is a god among men. Whether he was playing a wannabe warrior, a deadly assassin or a brush salesman posing as a French army officer, everything he did was comedy gold.
Similar to Angel...the never able to redeem the evil so it's just a day to day thing helping people but never achieving redemption.
No, he isn't. He really likes TV and pop culture. He does what he does out of pure love not irony.
What show is he talking about? "Xena" or "Alright?" ?
Lol!!!!
Bro. Will you reboot this shit!
Gotta love Greek Mythology. Where is Lucy Lawless anyway? (notice her last name is epicness)
Now I now what inspired Kill Bill.
does he is talking about the xina i know??
who disliked this?
A Tarintino fan who hates Xena lol
and who might you be, then? Someone from the show? (that would be awesome:)
Can we have Lucy Lawless in a QT movie?
Why do they say men don't like female action heroes? I love Xena
high five!
I enjoyed his comments. he looks like a nice and funny man. didn´t like Kill Bill.
aaaaaa la la la lal ala
1:18 he looks mental
@JACKOSTiNKERBELL ooh I see...
He's an Aries, that's his obsession with 'tough warrier girls'.. lol. Trust me;-)
you have not given me proof yet Im waiting...
