Quentin Tarantino

[Zot!]

Might seem odd I guess but Hateful Eight was basically a one room play...and he's pretty good at doing varied caricatures from German to the deep South. I'd be more concerned if he was doing James Bond or Star Trek.

New play to star Sasha Baron Cohen. I can’t help but think how Tarantino casted a fellow avowed Zionist who’s getting a substantial amount of pushback recently to star in his play. Maybe I’ll be eating my words, but between the confounding apperances where he calls Paul Dano “weaksauce” and then doing things like this, he’s really trying to kill the good will toward him.

Never mind the antisemitism, but it looks like "casted" has made it to the Criterion Forums.

There's good will toward Tarantino? I would think with all his bad behavior & scandalous reports over the years that that has long been gone. But I would have thought the same of Trump & Musk too by now & they still have plenty of minions still propping up their cults. There is one common feature of people with narcissistic personality disorder, they are not capable of self-reflection or remorse and therefore do not alter their behavior, so this should be no surprise.

I think most Tarantino fans wouldn't want to be friends with the guy but still appreciate his work

Love that a comment regarding their shared politics is followed by the lowest type of internet repartee: pointing out a typo. Good one!

Tarantino’s thing since the beginning has been “annoying turd who makes (mostly) great movies”, and that gets very hard to justify when he actively refuses to make movies in favor of doubling down on the “annoying” and “turd” parts.
