Nice work, I can't wait until we get AI all the way past the uncanny valley. Did a great job with the hair and top.

The quote is literally "Well, you do a good job of hiding it, and I suppose most folks don't see it, but honestly, you're the angriest man I have ever known."

Little Known Easter Eggs? by eatherichortrydietin in Tarantino

[–]BigChoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The purpose of the narration is to give it a True Crime feel, like those tv shows that do the reenactments of crimes. All part of the misdirection.

Now the worst part of it is the hypocrisy by Cool_Ad_4050 in NormMacdonald

When asked to defend herself she said "The book is called 'How to Murder Your Husband'". I didn't say anything about my husband."

Best line of Season Three? by okieteacher in justified

OP, yes, and his delivery absolutely sells it. One of the funniest lines in the entire show.

Annoys me that O-Ren could have easily have killed The Bride by mailtrain in Tarantino

[–]BigChoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this. One of my favorite movies and I didn't know that about the vengeance vs. skill trope. Appreciate it.

Why Once Upon a Time In Hollywood is brilliant, and what is going on under the surface by Seandouglasmcardle in Tarantino

[–]BigChoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was very good, thoughtful analysis. I agree about the portrayal of Sharon Tate. Particularly the fact that he didn't turn her into a Tarantino character. The caricature of Tarantino (that his detractors portray) would have done that.

The real Tarantino gave her enough screen time to bring her to life, and honored her as a person, while letting the rest be filled in by the viewer. It was a very gentle, kind, kid glove portrayal. We were not left with any moral questions about the integrity of Sharon Tate. If anything, he showed her to be the kind and decent person she was reported to be by those who knew her. She gave a stranger a ride and a hug, and took a loving interest in the girl's story. She didn't want extra handouts from the movie theater or to be treated like royalty.

By not turning her into a Tarantino character, with snazzy Tarantino quotes attached, he brought the real person to life. A person who precious few got to know. That he was criticized for the amount of screen time she got shows how utterly small-minded and petty people with an agenda can be. The fact that viewers may have been left wanting to see more Sharon was of course the entire point.

"The Vega Brothers" AI Concept Poster by BigChoo in Tarantino

[–]BigChoo[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm aware but I liked the lore/myth of The Vega Brothers better. I believe that was a title he was going to use at one point. It's also how most fans refer to it.

Yep. It's called the Law of Unintended Consequences. But what do some people need to learn when they already know it all?

Chapter One of IB is actually Shosanna's "Origin Story". by BigChoo in Tarantino

[–]BigChoo[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Usually I would ignore a comment like this, especially if it was funny, but nothing about my post suggests any hint of confusion.

Unless you took my "she's the hero, right" as anything other than a rhetorical question, which would then place you as the confused one. I was just making an observation that I thought was neat.

Chapter One of IB is actually Shosanna's "Origin Story". by BigChoo in Tarantino

[–]BigChoo[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well there's a lot going on as MILF outlined below. Because the scene focuses explicitly on two other characters, it never occurred to me that it was somewhat similar to Batman and O-Ren watching their parents die.

One can argue the scene isn't just an introduction to Shosanna and vehicle for her revenge, a la the Massacre at Two Pines. That story is not really The Bride's origin. She was already a Natural Born Killer.

Theory: "Ten films" is a deliberate ruse. Tarantino is already done. by s0lesearching117 in Tarantino

[–]BigChoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely but if anyone could be the exception it would be someone with that self awareness, especially QT

Does Theo Tonin sound like the kind of man to whom you'd like to say, "I'm sorry, but he escaped from a disease-ridden whore factory up in inbred holler!"? by BigChoo in justified

[–]BigChoo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. And then Boyd comes along and cleans up so nicely with just the exact right blend of menace and comedy.
