ZenLunatic Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Only full length movies that Quentin Tarantino wrote and directed are the choices. I have a feeling there is one obvious one that will dominate. There is talk he is working on Inglorious Bastards, a war movie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyjimmy Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Jackie Brown by a mile.Tho I'm biased in part by the fact that I'm a huge Elmore Leonard fan and loved Rum Punch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Motorik Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 True Romance. I know he didn't direct. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ZenLunatic Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 I loved the opening of Jackie Brown, probably one of my favorite all time openings to a movie. The whole part with Chris Tucker. But the best opening sequence of all time goes to From Dusk till Dawn. All the way until you see them driving off while George Clooney is drinking Jack from the bottle while yelling at Taratino while duck taping a hole in his hand. True Romance. I know he didn't direct. That was great too, along with Natural Born Killers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest David Puddy Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 pulp fiction. hands down. although, if you would have put true romance on the list, i may have voted for that (but he didn't direct). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tongue-tied Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I voted Pulp Fiction, though I kind of wish I gave it to Kill Bill since it is a ridiculous and ridiculously entertaining flick. Haven't seen Deathproof. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Stewart Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Yeah, it's really no contest for me, though I've enjoyed the hell out of every one of those films (except Death Proof, haven't seen it). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IATTBYB Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Reservoir Dogs was what first came to mind when I saw the title to this thread so that is what I voted for. But if I could vote for a second movie, it would be Pulp Fiction. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

quarter23cd Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I liked Pulp Fiction a lot when it came out and then watched Reservoir Dogs about a million times in college. Then Tarantino overkill set in and I haven't watched any of his films since then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They beat me up. see, you get it. Yet you choose the Back to the Future movies as overall better films than The Godfather movies.... hey, as a trilogy the godfather sucks. even though part 1 is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, it's not enough to outweigh the entire trilogy of back to the future.

Lammycat Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 hey, as a trilogy the godfather sucks. even though part 1 is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, it's not enough to outweigh the entire trilogy of back to the future.GF I= a masterpiece.GF II= an excellent film.GF III= pales in comparison to either I or II but is watchable and has it's moments. The fact that III is very weak in comparison to I and II doesn't make the trilogy weaker than the Back to the Future or Star Wars (or whatever) trilogies, though. Simply my opinion, of course.  Even with the weakness that is GF III, the GF series dominates. That's how good I and II hold up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beltmann Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I voted for Reservoir Dogs. For me, JB, KB1, and PF are tied for second--I like them all equally, but for totally different reasons. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
