Django Unchained

saw it tonight actually. it was watchable and not bad. typical QT with a wild, off the wall sh!t that seems minor and pointless but actually helps the movie. I thought the best scene was the scene when they are discussing the KKK masks lol. Samuel L Jackson also made me LOFL in the film.

One of the most vulgar, violent, and borderline offensive movies I'm seen in a while. There were a couple of times my GF closed her eyes while watching. Def not a chick flick lol.

I guess it was worth the $25 to see it in the theatre but I thought it was vastly overrated and wouldn't see it again in the theatre.

Tarrantino is one of those guys who can basically throw a bunch of stupid sh1t on film and as long as he adds in his own weird quirky influence and get a break out/strong performance from an actor...the critics and morons will rave about what a masterpiece of cinema it is. LOL.

Like I said it isn't bad but very overrated. Inglorious Bastards was much better. I'd put Django slightly above Jackie Brown and Kill Bill.

Terrible sound track BTW. Rick Ross? and a butchered Tupac segment that made zero sense? C'mon man

I actually absolutely loved it, and it has already found its way into the category of my all time favorite movies.

It's the most fun I've ever had while watching a movie. I was so entertained and hyped up during it, it was pretty crazy. Funny, violent, smart. I think it was Quentin's best yet, call me crazy. Although the whole ending sequence was over the top, it wasn't enough to ruin the entire movie for me.

Also, Christoph Waltz. Brilliant.

And you wonder why peoples minds are so corrupted that they obtain high capacity weapons and decide it might be fun to kill a bunch of people.

Great movie but I still think Inglorious Basterds was better. And yes the soundtrack was a little off for me. Jamie Foxx was such a badass! I didn't even recognize Samel L. Jackson in the first shot.

I agree about Inglorious...this was still awesome. It's pretty damn hard to rate Tarrantino's movies imo

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
