We were talking westerns not that French noir rubbish

I probably like Westerns (since I grew up with them) a lot more than what you call "French noir rubbish"

 

[Mad Cyril]

Holes.

Not bad, 7/10

I'm pleased for you and i'm pleased my favourite Western is not the same as yours.....I did read somewhere that The Good the Bad and the Ugly is Quentin Tarantino's favourite film of all time. You can certainly see it in his own films like Reservoir Dogs.

I watched Pulp Fiction the other night as it just happened to come on. Still as good as it always has been and right up as a personal fav of mine.

Pulp fiction is indeed a great film.Personally I'm not so keen on the rest of Tarantino's cinematic output.

Hmm, probably another thread entirely, for me it’s three films that were great, the rest .. not so much. My 3 ..
1. Pulp Fiction
2. Reservoir Dogs
3. Kill Bill vol 1

Anyone disagree?

Yes.

What’s your top three?

I thought we were doing a thread? :;)

 

[rigsby]

Yes.

Pulp Fiction and Resevoir Dogs looks about right. I would choose True Romance even though he didn't direct.

The problem with Kill Bill and despite some great scenes was it was to drawn out and i don't know about you but right from the start I had guessed that Bill would die in the end.

His best work keeps you guessing. I actually liked Dust till Dawn as its the only Horror film i've watched in the last 30 years. Its also the only time Tarantino has been convincing as an actor.

I rather liked the last Tarantino (about the Tate murders) with Brad Pitt .Thought that was well done.Never bothered with Kill Bill.Not a great fan of RD's either.

I always thought dusk till dawn felt like a different director came in half way thru.
I liked the first half, second half I will pass

Whiplash (Amazon)
VERY good , you can see why JK Simmons got an Oscar. Four of us watched it and all enjoyed it. Very clever ending.

True Romance is a great film.

Another Tarantino linked film I love is Killing Zoe.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Saw Orson Welles' Chimes at Midnight again earlier.Arguably the best ever Shakespeare on the big screen.

 

[Napster]

its the only Horror film i've watched in the last 30 years.

So many good horror films in the last 30 years - just a few below which I think you'll enjoy.

American Psycho
Event Horizon
The Descent
The Silence of the Lambs
REC
The Mist
28 Days Later
The Orphanage
Eden Lake

 

[KevinJH]

Two thumbs-up on Event Horizon - has to be one of the very best sci-fi horror films out there. Interesting wiki page here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_Horizon_(film) as to why we'll probably never see a Directors Cut under 'lost footage'.

Certainly liked AP and Silence.

Im not sure if you'd enjoy the others to be fair.

Don't think so either.Certainly haven't seen any of them.But American Psycho and Silence of the Lambs are outstanding films in any genre.

Eden Lake is brilliant
