I dunno.

Something is afoot.

Could be the most underrated Tarintino film yet to date. Everyone was expecting Pulp Fiction Part Deuce.

It may be underrated by some, but it's still my favorite Tarantino movie.

I loved it, and the soundtrack.
True Romance is another fav but I don't remember if he wrote or directed it; it was one of his first.

Didn't I do it baby...

After I saw "Jackie Brown" for the first time, I fell in love with the Delfonics music and bought their album, La La Means I Love You: The Definitive Collection (new window)

So good.

That was the first time I had heard Bloodstone since childhood.

/we're old and it's cool

Every movie with Samuel Jackson needs to have him being eaten by a shark or a dinosaur at some point. Even the ones already made, just toss a CGI shark or dinosaur in there.

Revenge of the Sith? A shark jumps up and grabs him after Palpatine tosses him from the window.

Snakes on a Plane? A Velociraptor jumps out of the bathroom and mauls him.

The Incredibles? Frozone gets bitten in half by a Sharkosaurus rex.

Mine too. Never understood why it didn't garner more of a following.

/looking at the film as a whole, I think it's Tarantino's finest work.

I literally watched this movie for the first time this past weekend and loved it. It was so understated for Tarantino and definitely tapped into something both nostalgic and unique. Criminally underrated in my opinion.

I just don't know what to make of this 'prequel' talk though.

Without Tarentino, this will be shiate.

Yeah, I'd rank that number one, then maybe Kill Bill 1 and then Deathproof. I know most folks hate Deathproof, but for me it was pretty much the perfect action car flick.

Ranking Tarantino's films is a difficult task. When you're exposed to Dogs and Fiction so often over such a length of time, they lose freshness and you forget how good they actually are, especially considering what else was playing at the movies in the early 90s. There was nothing like Tarantino at the time.

Underexposed films like JB, which is my first pick from his catalogue, are thus comparatively and perpetually fresh. As much as I like JB over any of his other films, it's very hard to say this film was better than PF.

/the sword fight in the trailer in KB2 has the one of the best fight scenes in all movies
//DP is one of his worst films up until the final chase, which is one of the best 20min stretches in any of his films, imo
///acting-wise the German's performance in IB powns any other actor in a QT film

Can I fark Bridget Fonda?

For me, he really caught the feel of Austin well. Not that I'm frequently catching lap-dances from scantily-clad Brooklynites in fashionably rundown bars or anything, but the rain, the way the cast carried themselves, the casual public pot-smoking, the look of the bar inside and out, and the douchey faux-lib college guys; my reaction was "Wow, you can tell he's really spent some time here." Same thing with the second set of femmes; the sequences with them up to the car chase is just one big love-letter to the crazy globe-trotting world of film crews and Talent. Tarantino does non-stop action great, but what makes his action sequences really stand out is how well he handles the slow, casual, dialogue scenes that lead up to them. And honestly, pairing that up with the atrocious Planet Terror; he may not have meant it, but he made Rodriguez look like a damn child.

Inglourious Basterds is one of my favorite Tarantino films. A lot of tense scenes in that movie and all the actors are excellent.

Pam Grier is pretty damn foxy in that movie. .

Kill Bill 1 is still his best.

OMG, STFU.

Angry Buddha: OMG, STFU.

Sorry, AB.

Half of Inglorious Basterds was the best film he's ever done. The other half, the Basterds half, was the absolute worst.

As a whole work, Jackie Brown is his best film, and Ebert said it best when he wrote at the start of his review "I like the moment when the veins pop out on Ordell's forehead. It's a quiet moment in the front seat of a van, he's sitting there next to Louis, he's just heard that he's lost his retirement fund of $500,000, and he's thinking hard. Quentin Tarantino lets him think."

The Tarantino fans in this thread might enjoy the new (and free) album from Nashville mash-up artist Wick-It the Instigator. It's called "Grindhouse Basterds". I'm not really a fan of hip hop, mash-ups or dubstep, but he blends all three with music and audio from Tarantino films into something really amazing.

So good.

Buy the Jackie Brown soundtrack off iTunes. Reservoir Dogs too.

I have both on CDs and they're amazing.

"...featuring Big Daddy Don Bodean's truck: The Be-hwemoth."

Pam Grier is one of the most beautiful women that ever lived.
That is all.

Glad to see the love for Jackie Brown here. I always throw the soundtrack on when I'm down, and the movie is a classic.

OK, I LOL'd. Guess I'm feeling a bit like a DB, ATM but I'm not always like this IRL. NTTAWWT.

Everyone's concerned about Tarantino's lack of involvement in this prequel, when they should be worried about Elmore Leonard's lack of involvement. "Rum Punch" is one of his best novels, and something tells me this movie will suffer from the lack of his source material.

As a huge Elmore Leonard fan I was hoping someone would bring this up. While some of the movies based on his novels are pure cabbage fart Jackie Brown is one that was done right.

Using initials was pretentious/obnoxious. I deserved it.

Tarantino not involved=no thanks.

Yeah, or, at best, meh.

She deserved an Oscar for the best-post-coital-a$$-walking-down-a-hallway.

A movie five geeks want to see. yay

I was in a lengthy discussion/argument with my brother on ranking Tarantino films not too long ago. Apparently, he will go to his grave believing Reservoir Dogs is head-and-shoulders above all others, and will never ever understand my love for Jackie Brown (#2 on my list, behind Pulp).

I think so too...who would have thought that the guy that directed Pulp Fiction would make a quite good movie centering on love story between two middle aged people.
