<p>Now you're talking sense</p> -
<p>Finally watched the H8ful Eight. Agree with most of what was said on here.....some awesome performances from all the characters, one I was most impressed with overall was the sheriff who definitely became more sympathetic as the movie went on. SLJ, Kurt Russell, Michael Madsen and Tim Roth were great too but nothing I hadn't seen from any of them before. Took me about 5 hours to get through on account of a few interruptions and that notwithstanding it was pretty long and definitely in the "bottom rung" of Tarantinos efforts alongside Death Proof and Kill Bill ( but better than those two ). No where near as quotable as the likes of Pulp Fiction or Jackie Brown either.....Did anyone else cringe with fucken embarrassment with QT insisting on Zoe Bell having a cameo and busting out the most "New Zillind" accent possible ? I know his movies are pretty liberal with the truth and history but what a kiwi chick from Auckland was doing in a movie set in the old west is anyones fucken guess....Madsen shooting her was very satisfying.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also caught an older flick over the weekend "Dune", this was a version over three hours long. I remember it from when I was young and it's effects have certainly dated shall we say, definitely a cool story but let down by too much confusion and annoying voiceovers. Sting was very cool as the Barons bad nephew but wasn't in it too much. Apparently David Lynch ( who had turned down Return of the Jedi for this ) never speaks of it in interviews......</p> -
<p>I think the only genuinely pretty crap flick QT has done so far is Death Proof despite Kurt Russell being pretty damn amusing in it, the rest just suuuuuuucccccckkkked.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kill Bill ( I count them as one movie ) is decent enough but nowhere near his best in my opinion, my order would go something like......</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Pulp Fiction</p>
<p>Inglorious Basterds</p>
<p>Jackie Brown</p>
<p>Reservoir Dogs</p>
<p>Django</p>
<p>Hateful 8</p>
<p>Kill Bill</p>
<p>Death Proof</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yours ?</p> -
<p>Once upon a time in Mexico? Desperado?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Reservoir Dogs would be up with PF for me and JB down too</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I liked Dusk til Dawn.</p> -
<p>Foxtel have been playing the original X-Men movies over the week. I've watched the first 3 over the last 3 nights</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The first one is a pretty entertaining movie</p>
<p>The 2nd one is a lot weaker than i remembered</p>
<p>The 3rd one is a steaming pile of garbage</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Halle Berry can't act for shit. </p> -

<p>Someone actually had a different opinion on the interweb, who'd have thought it ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Deadpool was ok, for a superhero movie which I despise as a rule ( apart from Batman, that was awesome....aw and the first Iron Man as well ).</p>

<p>For someone who claims to not like Superhero movies.. you seem to spend a lot of time talking about them.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think you are just trolling for reactions.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think the Batman movies are boring shite.... so I dont talk about them much.. as me saying they are boring shite numerous times would be kinda pointless.</p> -

<p>Nope, just giving my opinion. If someone wants to agree or refute it they can fill their boots either way....those exchanges typify the fern as a whole don't you think ?</p> -

<p>or.... you could you could just stop being a troll and repeating a position just to annoy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We get it .. you dont like super hero movies. Best way to illustrate that? Don't talk about them.</p> -

<p>Wow! This is the dullest way to not talk about movies!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>To be fair on MN5, I didn't think he was trolling.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One could argue along the same lines that you are just trolling for a reaction!</p>

<p>Yeah except I don't continually bring up his dislike of superhero movies. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>So... nah</p>
<p> </p>
<p>happy to be proved wrong though. But I guarantee I am not.</p> -

<p>I suppose that is another good way to not talk about movies?</p>
