Awesomely bad movies

[TDub]

Django was almost unwatchable

[ousdahl]

I still have never seen it all the way through.

The girl I was dating at the time didn’t like it and asked to leave the theater.

Then a later time I watched it and thought it was building up to some climax, then realized there was still like an hour to go. Whole new act III or whatever.

[Overlander]

Oh!

This one might be more controversial:

Django Unchained.

I saw it in theaters and remember thinking WTF who cast Jamie Foxx? Every one of his lines seemed to fall flat, like he didn’t even know the character yet and was reading the script for the very first time.

Then I learned, Tarantino wrote the character for Will Smith, but he turned the role down so it went to Foxx instead

Jamie Fox is somehow an actor.

Movie was still awesome.

[ousdahl]

Yea.

What about Tarantino’s cameo as like some Australian cowboy or whatever?

The Aussie accent is awesomely bad, but knowingly so, it seems, so maybe doesn’t fit here

Ethan Hawkes' John Brown was pretty spot on Tarantino.

Different strokes for different folks.

Any movie can be a date movie if you cut a hole in the bucket of popcorn

real men get laid regardless of the movie

More chauvinistic comments. Shocker.

I liked Django and appreciate Quentin essentially bringing Christoph Waltz to movies made on the west side of the pond.

Also liked Hateful Eight, for more than anything because of Jennifer Jason Leigh who is somehow still so criminally underrated.

[ousdahl]

Yea, Cristoph Waltz is a gem.


but he was better in Basterds.

but he was better in Basterds.

Far too different roles to compare imo.

I think he was fantastic in both. But he's also one of my favorite actors to there's that.

[ousdahl]

Which is better:

Kill Bill 1 or 2?

[Deleted User 89]

tough call who is better in tarantino flicks...Waltz or Roth

[CrimsonNBlue]

I like all of QT's movies. None of them are bad. I'm definitely a fan.

All of that is true but I also haven't had my socks completely blown off since Kill Bill.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood's potential was greater than its product.

I think Death Proof is a little underrated, though.
