>The Movie Critic is set in California in 1977 “and is based on a guy who really lived, but was never really famous, and he used to write movie reviews for a porno rag.” The inspiration comes from Tarantino’s teenage job where he would load pornographic magazines into a vending machine and empty quarters out of the cash dispenser. He explains, “All the other stuff was too bawdy to read, but then there was this porno rag that had a really interesting movie page.”
Cast it, Cinemaphile.
it sounds like a shit film, I think Tarantino knows he doesn't have it in him anymore and thats why he's afraid of making more films.
>he's afraid of making more films.
If only he was
Right up until the next one
Hollywood was his best though
Second worst behind Hateful Gayt
ive never been able to even finish hateful eight.
have a nice day.
>seething that he didn't get to see the slave owner suck Samuel L. Jackson's warm black dingus to completion
Y-yeah... the movie sucks
All filmmakers don't have it in them. The legendary filmmakers create a Magnum Opus, maybe two or three classics if they're lucky, and the rest is shit. This is why Kubrick really breaks the mold, almost all of his films could be considered a lesser directors Magnum Opus.
wow you're a pleb
Face it, Tarkovsky loser. Nobody better represents film and all it can be than Kubrick.
tarkovsky's a gay and so are you.
I agree. Kubrick was the goat and still is despite not agreeing with his cold style.Even movies like e-girlta or paths oof gloglory are incredibly well framed.
>his cold style
that's what makes him the best. His films are told from a psychopathic GOD perspective.
I like and respect him a lot. I take cinema to new heights. For my part, I have learned to appreciate the energetic and colorful style of Leone or Tarantino and I prefer this school. Nothing personal
i feel you bruh
You know what I'm talking about right friend...
>e-girlta
>two hours of the cringey israelite Peter Sellers hamming it up
not that homosexual, but I agree with you. Kubrick is king.
Shame he killed his career and rep with the Eyes Wide Shut stinker
Filtered by Kubrick. Kubrick mentioned that this film was his gift to the world of cinema.
Absolutely not, Kubrick is just the psuedointellectual's choice
>almost all of his films could be considered a lesser directors Magnum Opus
Not his early ones. e-girlta for example is shit and inferior in every way to the 1997 version directed by a milk advertisement copywriter.
Filtered.
this film will truly be his magnum opus. all of the shots of porn mags will be tastefully edited not to show nudity, but there will be feet galore
I've seen like 30 Hitchwiener movies and they're consistently good and span decades
Hollywood was his magnum opus. But guy sitting around writing for a porno mag saying witty shit sounds cool to me I'll watch it
>Hollywood was his magnum opus.
the ending ruins it for me.
It helps when you realize cliff does most of the work with the cultists, but rick kills one in a flashy way, and gets all the credit. It mirrors their relationship.
>but rick kills one in a flashy way, and gets all the credit. It mirrors their relationship.
yeah that is pretty kino, but I just didn't think the graphic violence was a good idea in this movie because all I thought about was what happened in real life to manson's victims.
this is going to be an excuse to roll out a bunch of ideas he couldn't get away with in other films and also a bunch of footshit and over the top cinematography as per usual
I'll be there opening night, then.
same
Me too. I rarely go to the movies anymore, a lot of shit coming out.
yep
His last film also sounded shit until I saw it.
Hollywood was kino, but it sounded way more interesting when everyone thought it was going to be about the Manson family
>it sounds like a shit film, I think Tarantino knows he doesn't have it in him anymore and thats why he's afraid of making more films
That was always the reason he himself gave, that directors get old and out of touch and trying to stay fresh when they aren't, and that he doesn't want to be what he ends up doing
How hard is Tarantino going to push the footgay bullshit with this one?
Another reason why he and Adam Driver are perfect match.
Something that happened on Annette set
>no monsieur Adam Chauffeur this n'est pas in le script S'il Vous Plait stop licking les pieds de Marion Cottilard
>Adam Chauffeur
He is literally me!
I think just the opposite is true. QT loves making movies, and there's not a chance this will be his last movie, as he promised years ago. He'll "retire", but come back at some point for one last movie, but will have at least a few "one last" movies.
it sounds like pure kino
Me
Is this going to be his last film?
I got you homie
>All the other stuff was too bawdy to read, but then there was this porno rag that had a really interesting movie page
this seems like retconning
does anyone really believe Quentin wasn't a teenage coomer
He fricked prostitutes instead. He’s very open about this.
Wat
I used to visit a porno message board because they had tons of movies and PSP games to download
He didn't need pornos when he had his prostitute mom.
True. If he wanted to jerk off he could just turn down the volume on his television and listen to her getting railed
that demands
were there magazines devoted to feet back then?
>California in 1977
Another fricking Hollywood nostalgiagay movie?
It should be Adam Driver but if MCU rumors are true that's not happening.
I can see that
Frick no
I dig this idea, but in my opinion he should direct Kill Bill 3 instead and use Mia as Uma's grown up daughter.
>nepo baby prostitute
no!
QT counts Kill Bill Vol 1 and 2 as one movie so this movie does not prevent him from making Kill Bill Vol 3.
this has been my conspiracy theory ever since he announced he was stopping at 10, but I don’t see it happening
Uma Thurman will never work with him again after he made her crash that car
She literally danced with him on the red carpet when they were in Cannes years after filming it
>Adam Driver
Not fat and balding enough
If Adam Driver was willing to get fat for White Noise, he would do that for Quentin as well.
Seethe and cope troony, Tarantino adores him.
Gyno goblin was a mistake
John cazale
I hate movies about hollywood, film-making, and films.
I think you should leave gaygo
>leading man
based, the press wanted to make that film into some biopic of a prostitute woman movie critic
I don't enjoy this "meta movies about Hollywood history" phase.
You mean 90% of his career?
I couldn't be less interested
It's time to retire, Quentin
Old news. The role has now been cast
>The role has now been cast
Perfect
>The names Jimmy, I write movie reviews in porno mags.
Yes, great fricking pick anon
Danny Mcbride is the perfect choice.
hello im the
ki no
His "I WILL STOP AT NUMBER 10" thing is such a fart-smelling crock of shit. A choice motivated by ego.
>I'll stop right after I make this slop about a movie reviewer
He's not stopping
hes gonna make 20 hour films and call it TV and legitimize streaming as a legitimate vehicle for kinography
I looked up on google "actors in their 30s" to get an idea of who would fit and it gave me a bunch of 40 year olds and Clint fricking Eastwood who is 93 but born in 1930 kek
Henry Cavill looks like Count Dracula in that pic
I'd go with Gyllanhaal
Send Julia butters over to my house to pat my leg, I'm ready.
Jesse Plemons
I am really disapointing this is his last movie.
What a crap way to leave the industry.
He should have directed a sci-fi or a horror or adventure. He should have gone out of his comfort zone for the final film.
he and paul thomas anderson should have dual directed and wrote to make something truly fricking unique and insane
>He should have directed a sci-fi or a horror or adventure. He should have gone out of his comfort zone for the final film.
This. He hasn't done a Roger Corman/John Carpenter-style sci-fi/fantasy send-up.
Is Jon Lovitz still alive?
Technically
You guys just say the same shit over and over again it's so boring
thought he said he was going to retire to teach at a film school
Only true way for him to go out would be a 70s style disaster film. It follows a logical progression of his genre outings from crime thrillers, martial arts, exploitation, westerns, war movie, horror. Only way he could could go out and have a big cast and disaster movies play into his campy sense of filmmaking. Better than this shitty ass idea
It's too late for him to turn back on it now, sorry bro
OUATIH was his real last movie already, he doesn't want to go big. This is intentionally going to be a smaller movie. He's said it's an epilogue.
>movie called Movie Critic
>it's actually a movie within a movie where the movie critic will watch a whole movie before writing the review
>the movie in the movie will be QT's greatest work
Honestly that would be amazing
He's already mentioned he makes stuff in 2 universes, one that's like real life and one that are movies characters in that universe would go see, and that Kill Bill is in the second. Could use Movie Critic as a way to do KB3 within another movie
I don't quite understand what you're trying to say. The kill bill universe is a film universe within the real universe of Tarantino type pulpo fiction ?
Yeah, most of his movies are in one universe, that's why Mr Blonde and Vincent Vega are brothers, the Bear israelite is the producer from True Romance's dad, everyone smokes Red Apples, etc, but some of them are movies people in that universe would watch, like Kill Bill. He says Earl MacGraw is the only character who crosses into both.
I didn't know that the israeli bear was the father of the israeli producer in true romance.
You could say that reservoir dogs, pulp fiction, Jackie Brown, inglorius bastards, once upon a time in Hollywood are from the real world.Kill bill, from dusk till dawn, the hateful 8 are movies in this universe
I didn't know that Patricia Arquette was the girl Mr White was referring to. She is too young for him.
Calls her by name, Alabama. It's complicated, in the script for true romance, which is probably all Tarantino considers canon, Clarence does, making her team up with other crooks after make more sense, but in the movies she's raising a family in Mexico which doesn't
Yes, it is supposed that in the original script of true romance, Clarence dies in the shooting but Tony Scott did not like that idea and changed it to the happy ending where the two are in Mexico with a baby
Wow
troonytino
Just to clarify Tarantino is not going to retire from cinema.
There is a blind item which mentions that all this is just larp on his part since if he retired he would be very bored
He's already got a weekly podcast owns a movie theater and has written three books. The dude isn't going to have any trouble keeping busy.
everyone knows he is going to start making streaming stuff
Imagine if he tried making a real movie instead of pastiche crap
no way, this homosexual doesn't have an original bone in his body
tarantino reads playboy for the articles, but he buys it for the feet. he should just hire woody harrelson since he already did the hustler
Tarantino is peak cringe
You can tell somebody's an idiot if they don't like Tarantino.
You can tell somebody's an idiot if they like Tarantino.
It's Andrew Garfield.
>John Goodman
Of all the unworthy film premises, whatever this will be will at least upstage the naval gazing of Babylon.
on a guy who really lived, but was never really famous
me, says every anon here
That would "literally" be almost everyone who ever lived
Classic
These are good
CLASSIC
Imagine if he faked everyone out and made this premise into Kill Bill 3. The porno guy stumbles into kill Bill 3 a quarter of the way through the movie
le feet joke
i found an old bondage/SM porn magazine that had very insightful reviews of Possession and Polanski's Tenant.
James Fankino for sure
hes cancelled.
Imagine he casts himself as the lead because he can't resist the urge to give his acting one last shot
The film would become instant kino.
>LOOKING FOR 'MOVIE CRITIC' LEADING MAN
lol
he already hired a fat leo dicaprio
I’m available, but I’m expensive.
>Movie Critic film
>Doesn't cast Jon Lovitz
If Tarantino doesn't cast Lovitz in this role, there will be no watch from me. Once-in-a-lifetime-opportunity waiting to happen.
fricking this man
wtf
revive his career
Doug Walker
>there was this porno rag that had a really interesting movie page
I too read porno magazines for their articlles. Anyway, the plot sounds masturbatory, even for tarantula
try to imagine this homie making anything set in modern times with smartphones and zoomers. you cant, because this boomer is stuck in the past. thats why he cries about digital cameras and cgi not for any logical reasons, but because he is a dogmatic crybaby purist
There was CGI in OuaTiH you dunce. He uses it as it should be used.
He could make the all time capeshit masterpiece if he wanted but he's an adult.
All we know about the character is he's a critic for a porno mag in the 70s. No idea what type of personality he's got, if he's supposed to be a Norman Mailer or a Gene Shalit. Cranston seems like a good middle of the road style actor, who could play either arrogant or goofy easily.
The name of the late film critic irl is Jim Shelton.
>how do you know
Jim Shelton worked at this rag. Died in his 30s. QT references him directly in his book Cinema Speculation. QT was using the pen name Jim Shelton to write reviews on the New Beverly website, the movie theater he owns.
Shelton's original reviews are compiled on a new Letterboxd page.
QT must be disappoint in how his fans do not follow his writings and hints. Cinemaphile isn't what it used to be that's for sure.
Thanks for the tip, I read the book but wouldn't have remembered that. Any link to the letterboxd page, their search doesn't turn up anything
He has mentioned the porno rag movie reviewer a couple of times in his podcast.
pick me.
1977.
It's going to be about Star Wars isn't it?
Child toe sucking democrat.
another shit flick drivel by the shabboest of the goyim QUEERTIN homosexualINO. he's an evil israeli stooge
Doesn't he live in Israel now? lol
Yeah, he married the daughter of a rock star there, she's hot
Here's her dad
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOcTDFJjWV4
Was never proven
Innocent like tom hanks
He’s gonna take jabs at Paul Schrader for this whole movie. Screenshot and watch me be right about Quentin the b***h. Loser Tarantino couldn’t write a script one iota as good as Schrader’s worst.
Will this movie have a lot of shots of someone feet in it?
Adam Driver's soles
C-cute
https://www.reddit.com/r/Tarantino/comments/13yavqg/finally_definative_proof_jim_sheldons_real_and/
reddit already found it's based on some obscure movie critic from the 70s
although some people argue these reviews are not real and tarantino made them up. would be hilarious if that's the case.
