    I thought Django was by far his best. Mixed reviews on this one, but I can't wait to see it. Also looking forward to The Revenant. Don't know which I'll get to first. I almost never see movies in the theater.

    Totally slept on, then forgot about Spectre. I'll wait for Star Wars to hit Netflix.

    Django was even better the second time. I'm looking forward to seeing this one.

    Dudes. Hateful 8 was amazing. See it in 70mm. It's interesting to shoot a film in 70mm that's largely set in a cramped cabin, but I think it's a move that says some pretty interesting stuff about the racial allegory he tells. With everybody trapped and their destinies linked with one another, there's nothing left but to turn the harshest scrutiny to it and try to put the awfulness of it all in focus. America.

    Also, The Revenant has to have been one of the best movies I've ever seen. I was blown away. Really powerful. Can't say anything more. ... just speechless (unless spoilers are on the table, then I have lots to say).

    Excellent, can't wait. Admit Django made me uncomfortable but that's simply the point.

    Just saw The Revenant last eve. and it is good. He fills the rolls so completely you can not fail to miss his immersion.

    This one was shot on 70mm so I went for the biggest screen i could find in town. Curiously, the pace is very theatrical ... I wasn't liking it much in the first half but then it builds up.. and it's so good.
    I thought Django was his best too.. cause that movie has such a big heart.
    This one carries a deep bitter heavy look on the race issue in America. It's less emotional ..more cerebral.
    slow.

    I saw this in 70mm and it was fantastic. Intermission and all. Reminiscent of "The Thing" which in 1984 also starred Kurt Russell, and they used part of that soundtrack for this film.

    It's like "Clue" meets "The Thing" meets "Django Unchained" with a smattering of "Reservoir Dogs."

    Agreed on the "must see in 70mm if possible" train of thought.

    I felt that the ending was rushed and anticlimactic, though.

    Still doesn't reach what I think is his peak of Jackie Brown, and its basically Reservoir Dogs in the Old West, but it was an excellent film.

    I liked it a lot. A Tarantino take on No Exit. Jennifer Jason Leigh steals the show.

    She sure does and the close up of her face on the end is already movie history but ..No Exit? It's a classic western set up.
    slow.

    Visceral reaction to racism overriding appreciation for the art . I walked out of blazing saddles in..what 1975 also and today it makes me laugh hard. I am paper thin yo.

    QT is my favorite director producer whatever how much he does. It seems like every big hit these days is a marketing franchise for action toys but this guy keeps churning out works of art. I personally enjoy Deathproof as one of his best for entertainment. Django was really awesome. Hell, they are all really good movies. I'll see this one.

    Jackie Brown is my favorite QT, Pam Grier and Robert Forster are
    the modern version of Humphrey Bogart and Mary Astor in the Maltese Falcon.

    Which make Samuel Jackson the new Sidney Greenstreet ?

    So I rented Inglorious Basterds, and, while flawed, did enjoy. What other filmmaker would make such a thing? Pretty cool project.

    Given this, it sounds like you guys would recommend Django and this new one?

    A pal of mine avers Django & Inglorious Basterds should be watched together. I haven't seen Django so I can't comment. Hateful is awfully good. Asks important questions about what a human life is worth to us (literally everyone has a price on their head). I loved it; even if his cartoonish violence doesn't appeal to me, it does make you wonder why it's oddly satisfying to laugh uncomfortably when it happens and wonder why we think that (re)vengeance is the way justice should transpire.
