Been a long time since I've seen it...Quintin ••••••••• (sp?) is known for his excessive usage of that word and I think he directed it, right? No, it isn't necessary, not even a little...

asking "is/was that necessary?" with quentin tarantino is pointless since the worlds he creates are meant to be full of pulpiness and excess (be it blood, "hipster cool", slang, profanity, etc.)

more than how a character develops, he likes to take delight in how a character is

it's like asking, "there's a combined 25 minutes of stillness and silence in the man-to-man gunduels of sergio leone's films... is that necessary?" well, no, it may not be "necessary", but style isn't all about necessity. filmmaking is an expansive art, and artists like to express themselves differently



speaking of sergio leone, jeus, it's been a while since you upped that western thread of mine and shared that you had seen the good, the bad, and the ugly

have you seen once upon a time in the west yet? if yes, what did you think?

there are people in this world who use the word a lot, and they will be depicted in films

and, if they're in a quentin tarantino film, they'll be using it more than normal... just as the amount of blood that spills out of them when they meet their death will be more than normal

i don't begrudge tarantino his word choice in dialogue, I'm just not a big fan of him as a writer in general. He's a capable director, but his writing leaves something to be desired (for me anyway, he is obviously very popular among the fanboys and critics)

on once upon a time in the west, still haven't seen it. after the oscars i watched scorsese's quasi-autobiographical documentary my voyage to italy, spread out over a few days (4.5 hours in one sitting was impossible) and seeking out the movies he recommends. so far i saw i vitelloni, umberto d and 8 1/2. I'm still looking locally for copies of the bicycle thief, la dolce vita, and any film by rosellini.

How fickle.

I never rated him that highly because I always saw him as some one who made a one syllable word into a five syllable word to sound smart. Pulp fiction was nice though.

I love his writing, more so than his direction... what don't you like about it?

Was I really that combative with you? If so, I apologise, because even though I know you're wittingly being a knob and neither of us invest stock in each other any more, it's still annoying.

His characters are all one-note and speak in a stylized manner that rubs me the wrong way. I'm not saying he's good or bad, just not for me.

I see what you mean... I like it, though... it's like a musical ensemble where each actor plays a different instrument
