Watching a Tarentino movie is always a guilty pleasure. Seems like I have to watch that one whenever I run across it on the movie channels...

That is a great movie. During the final scene when they spray Hitler, an old lady in the theater actually stood up and yelled, "Hell yeah!". I **** you not, I just about shed a tear.

I just wish I had seen it on the big screen now.......

The shoot-out in the tavern was perfect. Aldo's accent was so much fun. The casting overall... could not have been better.

It was a good flick. Hard to come by these days.

Reservoir Dogs did it for me and it's still the most re-watchable one for me.

im a big fan of "True Romance"... he didnt direct it, but im pretty sure he wrote the script... i also loved "Death Proof"... i wasn't that much of a fan of "Basterds"... i think i need to see it a few more times... seemed a little drawn out to me...

The opening scene in Inglorious really ranks up there as one of the best scenes of all time.

Basterds was long, but it was great. Christoph Waltz did an unbelievably good job.

True Romance was written by QT and directed by Tony Scott. It was a great movie and I consider it one of my vast list of favorites. It would probably be in my top 10 or 20 if the movie was presented in the order it was in the original script. He wrote it early Tarrantino-style with the timeline mixed around through the movie to really keep you guessing, but when a guy's biggest accomplishment before that was Beverly Hills Cop or some **** he just can't really grasp a less than straightforward movie. Similar problems with Natural Born Killers since Stone decided to film it so friggin' weird and fiddled with the script too much.

My other "bitch" about Tarantino flicks is From Dusk Til Dawn, a movie that was ruined my the marketing guys. That movie was written specifically to be a crime movie with the big reveal at the Titty Twister being a genuine surprise meant to totally take the audience offguard after being sucked in by the crime-spree/kidnapping plot and thinking it was going to continue being his usual stuff. The ****ing retards in charge of making trailers and so on revealed the big twist before anyone could even see the damned movie. When viewed as intended, spoiler free, it does a great job.

I've actually tested this on people who never saw or heard of the movie and they were genuinely freaked out after going from sexy *** Salma doing her strip thing to the BIG REVEAL. Get it? Big reveal...that means you aren't supposed to know that **** before seeing the damned movie. Imagine if they'd given away the Sixth Sense twist on the trailers? OK, so we may not have had to suffer through garbage like The Happening, but still not a good idea.

IB was way better than I thought. Not as gory as expected. QT has a knack for capturing everyday personal relationship exchange on the big screen. He really sucks you in and makes you forget you are watching a movie.

The goofy British General reminded me a lot of a famous British agent for some reason.

The Jew Bear scene with the baseball bat was good and the scene where they explain how the guy that had killed 13-20 Gestapo and they went to the jail to spring him and get him to join the Basterds was well done.

Check out The Inglorious Bastards from 1978, it's a hoot.
