I hate to bring up an old topic, but after watching Inglorius Basterds for the first time(yesterday)I feel moved. I recently re-watched all QT(don't feel like looking up proper spelling) writer/director films, and by recent, I mean the last month or so. Anyway, at the end of Resorvoir Dogs, I thought, what the F was all the fuss about? And that was maybe the 3rd time I watched it? I watched both Kill Bill films and wondered, why the hell did I just waste another 5 hours(I did see both vol 1 and 2 in the theaters.) Then I watched Jackie Brown, and thought, well I've only seen this maybe 3x, years ago, it wont be so bad. Shit, it was excellent!!! At the end I thought, ok, yes everyone's right ole QT can really make a film! Even though it was only 1 good one out of the last 4 I watched, it was fricken awesome! Then I watched Death Proof for only the second time, and thought well Rosario Dawson's lil dance scene in the bar was worth the movie. So I gave ole QT another pass. At last I pulled out the master piece Pulp Fiction. I mean, how many times did I watch this in 1994 and declare to my friends, QT is a genius? At the end, I swear I said to myself, what the fuck? After Bruce Willis comes on the screen, the rest of the movie is shit! Then yesterday I watched Inglorious Basterds, and I was amazed! I thought, there was an inventive, kinda original idea. I also thought QT took a chance on casting someone like Brad Pitt. Then this morning I re-watched it, and at the end agreed with Brad Pitt. I think this is QT's masterpiece.
Anyway maybe in 10 years I'll think this is just as shitty as all QT movies, but for now, Jackie Brown, Death Proof and Inglorious Basterds(QT's masterpiece) are A-OK with me!
