[quote name='Hermione' date='Aug 2 2004, 06:29 PM'] Tarantino and Peter Jackson belong to different genres (at least the movies in question are from different genres). Tarantino's films are indie; LOTR is mainstream. Really can't compare. If you're comparing Tarantino to Stanley Kubrick or Darren Aronofsky... that's another story [/quote]
Quentin Tarantino is no longer indie. His films are funded by the studios, therefore he is dependent on them. Mel Gibson made an independent film this year, The Passion of the Christ. He paid for it all himself. Can you really call Kill Bill independent with all the advertising and hoopla around it? Practically everyone has heard of it...

On top of that, Stanley Kubrick was not an indie director. He was mainstream, through and through. Would anyone consider The Shining or A Clockwork Orange or Spartacus or 2001: A Space Odyssey indie?

Quentin Tarantino is the dog mushy mud pie on Stanley Kubrick's shoes. You cannot compare a pop culture icon to one of the greatest directors ever. It's impossible. I also must say Darren Aronofsky is a better director than Mr. Tarantino. Pi and Requiem for a Dream are much better and original than Quentin's.

A tribute film? Ok then. All Kill Bill is merely a series of homages and tributes and copying of various Chinese and Japanese films. That's it. I believe that that does not merit anything on Tarantino's part, as anyone can make that. If you like those movies, check out the movies Tarantino is paying homage to! At least they're original and have their own creativity.

The guy's an egomaniacal jerk who hasn't matured past the age of 14.

Oh they were, they sould have just stuck with Kill Bill Volume One, even though it was bad, they souldn't have made 2 and Ive heard there going to make another installment of the series, only rename it since the title wouldn't make sense after the last movie.

I thought they looked stupid too, and i stilol do. everyone else i know seems to love them though. Theyre a bit Hollywood for my liking

[Noel's angel]

I didnt bother with them either, they just seemed like some sort of low budget comedy. Pulp Fiction is def. the best.
