Django Unchained

Postby Manders » Sun Feb 17, 2013 7:40 pm

Ok, so I finally got around to seeing this movie, and I have to say, this is probably my new favorite Tarantino movie. It was so entertaining, yet it made you think. It's easy to think that the things that were happening to slaves in that movie are just fictional, but I'm sure all of them happened to at least one slave at one point in time or another.

Regardless, this was a great movie and, imo, deserves the Oscar nods it got.

Agree? Disagree?

Oh, one scene in particular:

At the mansion after Christoph Waltz and Leo DiCaprio's characters have both been killed, and Django goes against about 30 armed goons all by himself? So much blood and guts to be seen. I loved it.
Ooh, ooh, and one of the funniest parts!

At the beginning where CW killed the Sheriff, then the Marshall comes up, and he explains to him why he killed the Sheriff and why the Marshall won't be arresting him today? Great, great stuff.
Overall, Christoph Waltz was an amazing badass in that movie.

Also, I've heard it has "Nigger" in it 109 times. I thought it would have been more. Hmm.

Want to see it
It's too bad we don't have a secret subforum where we can coordinate troll attempts where only we can see so that we don't have to catch on because only one of us is an actual rocket scientist.

I really didn't see all the fuss about Inglorious. It was fine, yea, but I didn't think it was better than the Kill Bill(s), for example.

I liked the kill bill movies but not as much as QT's recent work.

It's typical Tarantino: shoot-outs, hard as nails characters, "edgy" dialog, over the top violence.

Leo DiCaprio was terrible. Probably the hammiest performance all year.

I don't know why Tarantino gets so many awards when all his films are patchwork versions of earlier B-movies. If Django had been made by, say, Michael Mann, I doubt it would be getting so much buzz.

Like most successful directors, Tarantino is coasting on his reputation (which M. Night Shyamalan did for a decade before all his goodwill wore off).

It's not a bad film by any means, Christophe Waltz is great even though he plays a cynical German again, and the cinematography is top-notch. It's just nothing new for Tarantino. I'd like to see him break new ground.

Movie makes me shit bricks.

Don't think it was better than say bastards, but it had a lot more focus.

Christopher Waltz is still the best thing in the movie.

Leo was quite good, not sure what you are smoking.

None of the other nominees look good to me.

Like, seriously, I'm very skeptical of nominees for Best Picture. 9/10 they're boring as fuck.

I think the major reason that Inglorious Basterds got such rave reviews is that it was a fictional telling of a story loosely based on RL events.

Meaning, think back. How many assassination plans were planned/attempted on Adolf Hitler? This movie showed how it would have been if one had succeeded.

Not sure what he's smoking regarding that comment AND that Tarantino needs to break new ground.

:rolleyes:
