    Tarantino turned Kurt Russell into Jeff Bridges!

    Are you going to watch this Blanco Ape? I am not sure how much Tarantino would need to pay me. $125 an hour sounds fair.

    I don't eagerly await Tarantino's films anymore, but I'll most likely watch it shortly after it comes out.

    Definitely, I think Tarantino movies are a lot of fun.

    The cop Union is calling for a nationwide ban on this movie. I'm like a crack addict though. I can't stop watching his movies

    Every once in awhile one will get it right. I am not sure the same one does it twice very often. Peter Weir probably was the last to
    please me enough to remember.

    I think he is the best filmmaker going at the moment. Hopefully he doesn't hold up his promise to retire after ten.

    Tried to avoid the script spoilers since it seemed he was going to make the movie anyway, even when he said he wasn't.

    I love Tarantino's work. He's one of the few directors who films is completely a product of his own synthesis of influences. But I would be lying if I said that there is a literary aspect and level of growth in Paul Thomas Anderson' s work that I prefer. There Will Be Blood reaffirmed my belief in the power of American film narrative. A film like that Tarantino can never make.

    Awesome, I was trying to find out where I'd be able to see it on 70mm film a few weeks ago but wasn't having any luck. Thanks for the heads up!

    Not even Paul Allen's theater in Seattle is showing it in 70mm.

    Well, it isn't playing at the Cinerama at all, so that's probably why. I'm guessing Star Wars will be the only movie showing there for a good while.

    Apparently not a lot of projectionists have experience with 70mm and the advance screening for the movie was a problem. They switched to digital during the intermission.

    I saw that. It was a theater that originally showed movies in 70mm, not like the magaplexs today.

    There hasn't been a Quentin Tarantino movie that I haven't seen. I love them all. I did however boycott Django for a long time. While vacationing at Eagle Crest this year, my lady finally got me to watch it. I kicked myself for not going to see it at the theater. While everyone else was focused on how many times the word nigger was used, I got a kick out of how ignorant and stupid he made the KKK look. Leonardo DiCaprio played the fuck out of that role! I was thoroughly entertained.

    I still know every word of that rap by heart from my youth. Loved it then and love it now. Whole album is awesome but that song is awesome.
