The Hateful Eight

[jyl]

I guess I'm a bad person, but the ultra-violence in Tarantino's movies is just funny. An extremely long movie, very lengthy setup before the killing starts, and then it gets funny in a good way. Sort of like a homicidal Family Guy. Recommended, but maybe not for your kids. Though my son liked it.

tarantino, not going to spend money on his films. ever.

Great movie in the Tarantino vein.
He must get his fake blood by the tank car load.

Saw it in Ultra Panavision 70mm a couple of days after the premier.
Really is an homage to the spaghetti westerns, including a score by Ennio Morricone who did the scores for most of the Clint Eastwood westerns.

3 hours and 7 minutes long, but I got a cool program and an experience.

My wife and I plan to see it in general release to see if there is anything lost in translation. By the way, she never sees any movie twice.

Why not? I don't think we should take his movies too seriously.

I plan on seeing it when it releases here.

because of his anti cop remarks, sticking up for cop killers.

Apologies Dean but I haven't heard about that.

"anti-cop"
sir, you are being too nice. He called them murderers. Of course, no facts to back his neck talking up.

I heard they include an intermission, because of the length??

[M.D. Holloway]

Jennifer Jason Leigh was so tough its not even imaginable. Kurt Russels performance was forced. Samuel L Jackson was good. A very complicated story to retell but easy enough to follow.

Scene at the end was actually funny...the arm scene?

[BeyGon]

tarantino was at a black lives matter rally the day after a murdered cop's funeral and called the cops murderers.

Just got back from the 70mm UltraPanavision Widescreen experience. It didn't seem like it was three hours. I liked it. John was right, the ultraviolence is at the point of comedy at this point with QT.

At the intermission, everyone was laughing about the scene that closed the first half; Any other film would have had people gaping at the screen dumbstruck.

(One thing that struck me - at the opening of the second half when they show the moving stagecoach, I noticed that they still haven't solved the frame rate problem that makes the wagon wheels appear to spin backwards. There are still some complications that haven't been resolved in modern movie making. I suppose if he would have filmed it digitally, he could have used CGI to fix it, but he chose celluloid film.)

Also, they didn't really have snowplowed roads back then, did they? Certainly no one went out and shovelled the last mile of road before Minnie's? That bothered me quite a lot.

"That bothered me quite a lot."

You must have gone into a frenzy when in 2001:A Space Odyssey the hands on the wall clock didn't move during a 3 minute scene.

Hate to be the dissenting voice, but I hate every movie Tarantino ever did, now will avoid any movie that he is associated with.

The Kill Bill thing just epitomized the stupidity of the whole Tarantino mindset, it was not believable, extraordinarily poorly filmed and without a single socially redeeming quality.....just like all his movies.

Definitely will not even try to see it.....

Ummmm... looks like a tasty burger you have there Ice. Do you mind if I take a bite of it there. Where did you say you got that from? Jack Rabbit Slims you say....That is one fine burger, do you mind if I have a sip of your Coke to wash it down?

Tarantino always does some kind of bit about food in his movies. Tarantino is all about being character driven and snappy dialogue. I dont exactly love him as I think he is a smarmy kind of guy but he does have an ear for dialogue and developing great characters.

The one movie that he wrote but did not direct that I truly liked was True Romance. If you have seen that movie you have seen all of his movies. The other redeeming quality was Uma Thurman who in my opinion has gotten more beautiful with age, and of course Sam Jackson who always seems to be a treat.

However nothing can ever beat Sergio Leone and his master piece Once Upon A Time In The West, with Henry Fonda playing the villain Frank.

Okay, I guess I'm the dissenter of the group. As a rule I like Tarantio movies as does my wife, but we just didn't get this one. Thought it was too long as we were waiting for it to turn the corner in some way.
