One of my favourite film directors and film writers of all time

resevoir dogs
pulp fiction
kill bill volume 1 and 11
from dusk till dawn
natural born killers
hostel
and many more

i love the way he makes his films my favourite being pulp fiction.
Any1 like his films??
 
Lol, dont forget Jackie Brown and the upcoming Death Proof!

Tarantino will always be my fav movie director. RE being my ulitmate fav film by him as it was the first one I seen. He has a great way of filming and directing his pieces. Well scripted and he is a coolio actor also. He is a movie god.
 
I do like his attitude of making action packed films that still retain clever touches and a witty script, Kill Bill is soooo underrated and Pulp Fiction is immense. I cannot wait to watch the Grindhouse, Deathproof is looking sweet.
Although i do have to admit that Tarantino is sometimes somewhat cocky, he has probably taken the Japanese style of witty action films, and given it the Hollywood makeover to tackle the more mainstream market.
 
i do like some of the films of his i've seen, but not when he directed 2 episodes of csi. anyone see these? he changed the characters - so for 2 episodes they suddenly had this fascination with country and western. n added a lot of gore to it - not the best idea when some young kids watch it!
 
But young kids love gore...or atleast I did :P

Tarantino will always be my favourite director, the way he tells a story and the humourous scripts keep me watching all the way through. Kill Bill, Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction are my favourite movies directed by him
 
I have the one episode that Tarantino made of CSI. The one where Nick is kidnapped, which was the other one? Im a huge CSI Las Vegas and QT fan, but I cant recall another one made.
 
Quentin didn't write or direct Hostel that was Eli Roth who is good friends with Quentin. I also don't think the Kill Bill movies were of the quality of films Tarantino is known for. They were good but...meh compared to Pulp Fiction and Resevoir Dogs.

I'm a huge horror/cult movie fan but recently I haven't liked the direction these "horror" movies have been going. A horror movie is suppose to be scary with some blood but not so grotesque that you wanna throw up. I don't see any creativity or plot in these movies such as Hostel, Saw, The Hills Have Eyes. They are more like all the writers sat around thinking "hmm how can we make everyone in a movie theather throw up?"

I also don't really like how Quentin Tarantino is putting his name on things just to get it better ratings. He has nothing to do with the movie he just puts his name on it to say "I recommend this film so go watch it because i'm Quentin Tarantino and I know films"
 
i thought he made the 2 final episodes of a series of csi - same story, just over 2 episodes. though i'll apologise if i'm wrong :P

Click to expand...

I have to agree, Hostel was a really bad film, shocking for the Westeners, but there was no substance, the name Quentin Tarantino was only splashed across it, to make it sell better....Eli Roth also made cabin fever, which was kinda good....I also think that Pulp Fiction was probably his best film to date, i enjoyed Kill Bill as an old skool martial arts film, with a classic story, as it was intended by Tarantino. People like him as director because of his take on the action genre, he adds more substance and plays with new concepts, i say new, i mean borrowed from Asian cinema. But thats a good thing:P
 
I started liking Eli Roth when he did Cabin Fever. It was a true horror film, it had blood, pot, teenagers in a cabin, sex, and people dying. The fact that it was about a disease made the movie even more believable.

Kill Bill was a good movie but not like his older films. I mean Resevoir Dogs was told backwards and Pulp Fiction had so many good plot twists it made for one hell of a twisted film.

I'm really looking forward to is Wicked Little Things and Rob Zombie's remake of Halloween.
 
I've only ever watched the Kill Bill series, and haven't even heard any of his other films. x_X. I'm such a nub at filmography.

But anyways, from that tiny window of experience with his films, I can quite say that he's a great director.
