Favorite is the scene where Waltz's character looks at Django all like I'm sorry and shoots Candy and ensuing blood bath. Not the best scene, but powerful and my favorite.


Close second is pub scene. Cringed for every second of it.

Also, the dinner scene with Dicaprio in Django is awesome. The tension is extremely high.

True Romance is Tarantino's best non-Tarantino directed movie.

My favorite is Pulp, but its alredy been said too much.

I'll say Kill Bill 2

when eye patch chick releases the snake on Bill's brother and then Beatris (sp?) comes in snatches her other eye out.

Pulp Fiction.

The dialogue leading up to the apt scene when Jules and Vincent are discussing the intimacy of a foot massage.

Pub scene of Inglourious Basterds.

Opening scene is up there, too.


Was gonna post the same thing. That movie had several great scenes. The restaurant scene when Landa meets with Shosanna, or when Landa negotiates with Aldo Raine to stop the war at the end. Really any scene with Landa. Christoph Waltz is great.

The SLJ scene in Pulp fiction with "do you speak English Motherfricker..." C L A S S I C.

Pulp fiction was Tarantinos best movie. Didnt particularly like his others. Django in particular was just unnecessarily violent.

I find it to be among my three favorites.

If I have to pick an absolute favorite, Pulp Fiction. That is cinematic history, though. It was to movies what nirvana was to music--and at about the same time, too.



But Inglorious would be my second favorite.

And I thoroughly enjoy watching Django, but it's not on par with the top two.


Reservoire dogs was a decent start. Jackie Brown was too self conscious. Kill Bill .. not my thing. Am I leaving one out? Not one important.


Take the opening scene in Inglorious. I don't know anyone who could build that kind of tension in that setting--only a cabin, total silence, with two men talking to each other.

I just saw it once and was really disappointed. Maybe I'll give it another watch.

I wasn't sure what I saw after one viewing of Pulp Fiction.

It's like great music. If it's easy to digest on the first viewing (or listen), it's probably not going to be satisfying for very long.

The acting and writing do it for me. Christoph Waltz, Michael Fassbender ("I hope you don't mind if I got out speaking the King's"), and Brad Pitt's performances are some of my favorites in any Tarantino movie, and in Basterds he mastered the languid, dialogue-heavy, tension-racheting that's become his hallmark.

Surprised to see a lot of Django love. Thought that movie was silly.

and Brad Pitt's performances


I would generally agree except for this. His performance is less . . something. Though I've always thought his acting was a little--"look at me I'm a terrific actor" feeling.

Waltz makes that movie, though there are many great performances.

My brother and I watched it when it came out and were the only ones in the theater laughing out loud.
