Best Tarantino movie?

[LaLaLand]

Which one's the best in your opinion and why?

I haven't seen the Hateful Eight yet, and wasn't interested in Death Proof...

But my favourite was Jackie Brown. The soundtrack to it, the vibe of it all (this kind of heist movie done through soul & lazy California-isms) was just :love: I mean I don't think he's made a movie that's less than "very good" so that helps but that is my favourite.

...hmmm, that's a difficult one to pick a favourite and I haven't seen all of them...it was actually one of my sons who introduced me to Tarantino when he was studying contrapuntal in movies../well obviously that's why we all get into Tarantino..:laugh:...I'll say the Kill Bills though, just because I think they get more into the depths of the characters...

I totally agree, Jackie Brown is my favourite by a country mile. I love the cast, the soundtrack, the usual intertwining plot and the will they/won't they between Jackie and Max at the end. Like you say too, it has a great "vibe" - I love how it's gripping but still tends to feel mellow yano?

Haven't seen Hateful Eight or Death proof but my top 3 would be :

Pulp Fiction
Django Unchained
Inglorious Bastards

Death Proof is my favorite, so underrated. Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill are my runners up.

[Denver]

Not gonna lie never seen any

[Locke.]

Pulp Fiction > Reservoir Dogs > Inglorious Basterds > Django Unchained > The Hateful Eight > Kill Bill 1 > Kill Bill 2 > Jackie Brown > Death Proof

They're all good though.

[Vicky.]

I haven't seen any of them :umm2:

[Alf]

Pulp Fiction will likely always be his most iconic film, for good reason really.

True Romance is actually my favourite film written by Tarantino though

[Kizzy]

Natural born killers obv..

True Romance is actually my favourite film written by Tarantino though

The genesis of the film began with a 50 page script by Roger Avary entitled The Open Road. Avary described the plot as being about "an odd couple relationship between an uptight business man and an out-of-control hitch-hiker who travel into a Hellish mid-Western town together." When he had trouble finishing it, he asked his friend and fellow Video Archives clerk, Quentin Tarantino, to give it a shot. After several weeks, Quentin handed him over 500 hand-written pages of, what Avary described as "the Bible of pop culture." Roger typed and edited the behemoth, working with Quentin on further story ideas. According to a Film Threat article from 1994, the final script was a combination of True Romance and Natural Born Killers (1994). Reportedly, it followed Quentin's original NK script until after the prison riot. After escaping, Mickey and Mallory decide to find and kill the screenwriter who wrote the glitzy Hollywood movie about their exploits. The writer goes on the run, and True Romance was the movie he writes while trying to evade the two psychotic killers. It was told in trademark Tarantino chapter fashion, out of chronological order. When it became obvious that the miniseries-length script would never sell, they split the two stories into separate movies.

Oh wow, I never knew all that, that's pretty cool. Did you watch True Romance?

I've seen Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill and hated them all, so I've kind of been put off Tarantino. However both my mum and my sister have told me Django is one of the best films they've ever seen and think I'd enjoy it too. Keep meaning to give it a go

Django is so good, how do you not like Pulp Fiction though :o

Dunno.. It was marginally better than Reservoir Dogs but I just didn't enjoy it much

No, never knew that either will now though :)

I wasn't that keen on reservoir Dogs either tbh

No, never knew that either will now though :)

It's really good

I'm a huge fan so all of them lol, but I voted Kill Bill 1 (I think the 2nd one is equally as good though, and personally I view them as 2 halves of the same film).
Death Proof is criminally underrated and that would probably be my next favourite, then Pulp Fiction, as my top 3.
