yanquiuxo: Quentin Tarantino Ranked

Papa Universe 07.10.17	I'll allow it.
Slex 07.10.17	This ranking is dog shit
butcherboy 07.10.17	reservoir dogs, pulp fiction, Charlie brown, the first two-thirds of Inglorious Basterds, everything else is shite..
ZombieToyDuck 07.10.17	the fact you ranked reservoir dogs over pulp fiction makes me realize how bad it is that I haven't seen it yet.
TheSpaceMan 07.10.17	resevoir dogs is laaame
Rik VII 07.10.17	Wow, props for 1 on 1. It's the only one I really, really enjoy. Too bad that one of all is a remake. Well, never thought to see it on that spot anyway, so good job. :) 2 on 2 also seems right. But somehow I feel True Romance is missing. I know he didn't direct it and Tony did, but it still counts as a full-fledged Tarantino movie in my head
wham49 07.10.17	6 is a hard 1, and death proof is so awesome
hal1ax 07.10.17	pulp and jackie brown are the only QT films i semi-enjoy
ArsMoriendi 07.10.17	"reservoir dogs, pulp fiction, Charlie brown, the first two-thirds of Inglorious Basterds, everything else is shite.. lol hateful eight sucks a bag of dog shit. resevoir dogs is laaame" ._. what the fuck
Satellite 07.10.17	django pulp fiction basterds hateful 8 jackie brown kill bill 1 & 2 reservoir dogs death proof
Papa Universe 07.10.17	Well, butcherboy, you keep disappointing me day after day...
JWT155 07.10.17	Hateful 8 is far from being the best movie of all time but is hardly a pile of shit.
neekafat 07.10.17	Yeah this is bad
JWT155 07.10.17	I think it's hard for me to rate his movies, especially in since I value them in different ways. Pulp Fiction is his masterpiece, Inglorious Basterds to me was the most enjoyable viewing in theaters, Django was fantastic, Hateful 8 was really good and I enjoyed almost the play like mystery aspect of it, same as Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill was ambitious and mostly delivers.
yanquiuxo 07.10.17	to make a movie like Hateful 8 you probably have to see all damn western movies done before... Anyway, yeah i can see why people say Pulp Fiction is his best, but Reservoir Dogs is the one i enjoy the most every time i see it
AngryJohnny 07.10.17	Having not seen hateful 8 I'd say this ain't too bad apart from Pulp Fiction being 1
butcherboy 07.10.17	Unique, there's a point past spaghetti western kitsch when movies just become glazed Christmas hams.. Django in particular jogs right past exploitation homage and into utter shit
dbizzles 07.10.17	Hateful 8 was pretty bad.
Slex 07.10.17	I'm a huge Tarantino fanboy and Hateful 8 is by far one of his weakest efforts
WatchItExplode 07.10.17	Hateful 8 is a legit treatment for insomnia. Quite effective in my personal experience.
dbizzles 07.10.17	It is. A) Another Western? (I LOVE WESTERNS) Mix it up. B) The Cast? for fuck sake, what a bunch of wasted talent. Basically an ensemble cast full of minor unmemorable roles. C) Samuel L. Jackson's 'suck my dick' flash back seemed like it was only there for shock value and QT is better than that.
dbizzles 07.10.17	Pulp Fiction Reservoir Dogs Inglorious Basterds Django Unchained Kill Bill 1 Kill Bill 2 Death Proof Hateful Eight Jackie Brown
Cummer 07.10.17	Quentin Tarantino's directing has declined every since the AIDS.
Muppelope 07.10.17	I would just swap 4 and 5 and there are days 3 is my 1. Haven't seen 6. Good list, I mostly agree.
Spluger 07.10.17	I loved hateful personally but I am a Tarantino fanboy so whatever. KILL BILL 1&2 Jackie Brown Reservoir Dogs Pulp Fiction Django The Hateful Eight Inglourious Basterds Deathproof But my rankings change pretty often based on what I've seen most recently.
Slex 07.10.17	Inglorious Basterds Pulp Fiction Reservoir Dogs Kill Bill Vol 2 Django Unchained Jackie Brown Kill Bill Vol 1 Hateful 8 Deathproof
Rik VII 07.10.17	"C) Samuel L. Jackson's 'suck my dick' flash back seemed like it was only there for shock value and QT is better than that." He's proven often enough that he isn't tbh
Demon of the Fall 07.10.17	I preferred Django to Inglorious Bastards. Rest is ok although I haven't seen Hateful 8.
yanquiuxo 07.10.17	I'm not taking seriously those who say H8 is boring lol @dbizzles It has many defects indeed, like the one you mentioned about the characters, i agree with it. The ending was a little disappointing too. Still not a bad movie to me, script is so good
dbizzles 07.10.17	'He's proven often enough that he isn't tbh' That was an egregious example and I guess I disagree if you are saying he hasn't proven he's better than shock value. There's a difference between shock value and being over-the-top. @yanquiuxo I didn't think it was bad per se, I just feel like it was very weak. I wish he'd scrapped it when the script was leaked like he said he was going to. I don't think any of his movies suck. I'm a total fanboy.
Rik VII 07.10.17	I mean yeah, he obviously can do better than shock value, but what I meant was that he never was 'above' it
brainmelter 07.10.17	Pulp and inglorious are top 2 fact
Rik VII 07.10.17	Some of Inglorious' characters are damn boring. It really feeds off Landa and beyond that hasn't all that much to offer imo. There are some really memorable moments in it though, I'll give it that.
Risodo 07.10.17	Pulp Fiction 10/10 Inglorious Basterds 10/10 Django Unchained 9.5/10 Reservoir Dogs 9.0/10 Jackie Brown 8.5/10 (Pretty fucking underrated) Kill Bill Vol 2 8.0/10 Kill Bill Vol 1 8.0/10 The Hateful Eight 7.5/10 Deathproof 6.0/10
RunOfTheMill 07.10.17	I loved Kill Bill vol. 1 but I thought vol. 2 was only good for the training montages. So much of that movie was unnecessary holy shit. 1 is 1 tho
Masochist 07.10.17	As long as Pulp Fiction, Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained are in the top three, I'm okay with any ranking. I've never seen Reservoir Dogs, but I know it's a classic, so if that cracks it, whatever. Inglourious Basterds was a master class in suspense building. Does Quentin have a better scene than that opening (actually asking for opinions)?
Kalopsia 07.10.17	Tarantino is good, but I agree pretty overrated if you're a teen or in college duh he's like tots awesome bruh
yanquiuxo 07.10.17	@Masochist I probably Agree. Massive performances and again, script is pure gold
yanquiuxo 07.10.17	@Kalopsia ''if you're a teen or in college duh he's like tots awesome bruh'' yep.. it's so annoying
TheSpaceMan 07.10.17	I used to equate opinions with age and inferiority when I was a teen in college
Rik VII 07.10.17	"Does Quentin have a better scene than that opening (actually asking for opinions)?" Even within Inglorious, there is that "Apfelstrudel" scene that I would consider at least equal. My favorite Tarantino scene in general gotta be Mr. Wolf in Pulp Fiction though
yanquiuxo 07.10.17	@TheSpaceMan I did not say i do not respect their opinion, i just said it's annoying, because it's not even their fault in most cases. Here in italy for example, schools of any grade do not mention Cinema at all, and you're lucky if professors make you see 4 movies in 5 years. I don't know how it works in your country, but i think that the lack of Music and Film education in my country, it's so embarrassing
Masochist 07.10.17	"Even within Inglorious, there is that "Apfelstrudel" scene that I would consider at least equal." I can agree with this. They are two parts of the same scene, really--just 20 odd years apart. He orders that milk on her behalf--talk about suspense!
killerK1 07.10.17	6 is 1.
TheSpaceMan 07.10.17	@yanq I'm not really calling anyone out. If I see a gernade I'll toss it back
ScuroFantasma 07.10.17	"Does Quentin have a better scene than that opening (actually asking for opinions)?" Same movie, that scene where they're all underground in that bar and the two guys and that chick are trying to bluff the German general.
ScuroFantasma 07.10.17	Also: Inglorious Basterds > Love that movie
Snake. 07.11.17	9 is 1 because MEW
Source 07.11.17	Most overrated director ever agreed
Rik VII 07.11.17	One of them yep
Source 07.11.17	When you reach your mid 20's you realize his movies are actually kind of annoying
Kalopsia 07.11.17	half of sput is more than a few years away from realizing that then
Source 07.11.17	Good for them
grannypantys 07.12.17	as long as 1 is 1 there is no complaints from me "why am i Mr. Pink?"
runaways 07.12.17	good ranking. probs the most overrated director in recent memory. everything after Pulp Fiction was average to bad.
Masochist 07.12.17	"When you reach your mid 20's you realize his movies are actually kind of annoying" I turn 30 this year. Still enjoy the four movies I've seen of his.
dbizzles 07.12.17	'When you reach your mid 20's you realize his movies are actually kind of annoying' When you just turned 25 and posted this shit comment.
EyesWideShut 07.12.17	1 Hateful 8 2 Kill Bill 3 Pulp Fiction Death Proof underrated
theacademy 07.12.17	quentin tarantulino
Spluger 07.12.17	death proof is great, and only gets better with repeat viewings but I find it hard to argue that it's better than any of his other films. Also https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/12/movies/quentin-tarantino-charles-manson-film.html?mcubz=2
Satellite 07.12.17	"When you reach your mid 20's you realize his movies are actually kind of annoying" can confirm that this is wrong and dumb
Clumseee 07.12.17	Inglorious Basterds Reservoir Dogs Deathproof Pulp Fiction The Hateful Eight Jackie Brown Kill Bill Vol 2 Kill Bill Vol 1 Django Unchained
Papa Universe 07.12.17	@theacademy: This guy right there, this guy I like.
Source 07.12.17	"When you just turned 25 and posted this shit comment" I'm older than 25, but nice try bro.
dbizzles 07.12.17	Oh, darn. I tried really hard too.
Rik VII 07.12.17	There was never a time where I thought that he deserved the hype. The feeling got stronger the more movies in general I watched - the ones he was influenced by in particular, like City on Fire by which I found out that my favorite film of his (and the only one I liked) was basically a rip-off
DikkoZinner 07.12.17	Jackie Brown #1
Intothepit 07.13.17	The dude is the Adam Sandler of directors. He has yet to do anything different. That being said, the only 3 movies worth a shit are Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, and Jackie Brown. All the rest of just the same fucking movie in a different setting.
Prancer 07.13.17	"Mr. Brown... that's a little close to Mr. Shit"
Masochist 07.13.17	"The dude is the Adam Sandler of directors. He has yet to do anything different." If that's your criteria, then Wes Anderson is Kevin James.
Papa Universe 07.13.17	"If that's your criteria, then Wes Anderson is Kevin James." If that's your criteria, then Alfred Hitchcock is Rob Schneider.
Intothepit 07.13.17	You're telling me that The Royal Tannenbaums and The Fantastic Mr. Fox are the same movie? C'mon now.
Gmork89 07.13.17	I'll always enjoy inglorious bastards the most, Christoph Waltz in that is one of my favorite performances in any movie.
Masochist 07.13.17	You're telling me Pulp Fiction and Django Unchained are the same?
Intothepit 07.13.17	They're not, but pretty much anything after Jackie Brown is a movie about someone seeking vengeance. The Kill Bill series, Django, Inglorious Basterds, even Death Proof. The dialogue in each movie is almost similar. Long diatribes about vengeance and violence. It's all the same. The guy either ran out of gas or fell deeply in love with his own style and isn't willing to admit that it doesn't necessarily work anymore.
Rik VII 07.14.17	You could even say similar things about Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction and True Romance (script-wise). Mind that all of these scripts were written around the same time, and some dialogue he wrote without even knowing where it would flow into. Like, the infamous Dennis Hopper dialogue in True Romance was inspired (or quoted) by a discussion that he overheared or something like that. He wrote it into that part and some time later decided which script would have it. And, be honest - if you swapped the opening dialogues of Reservoir Dogs and True Romance, I don't think anything about the movies themselves would change. That's because he wrote a bunch of dialogues and threw them into scripts, and most of the dialogue literally could have been in one of the other movies instead. And it shows. The Hopper dialogue is funny, but what does it add to the story or the film as a piece of art? Just a funny scene to be honest. Especially because none of the characters talking ever appear again in a scene that's in the middle of the film. It's just totally incoherent. (but it's a good scene nonetheless) And Django Unchained and Inglorious Basterds are the same movie in a different setting.
Typhoon24 07.14.17	fair list
