For me, his style and execution is what matters. I've never thought of his stories as very compelling. So when doing a very specific genre movie, he'd really flaunt what he does best, because we all know what to expect from those movies and he sets himself apart so well. Imagine him doing a Marvel movie. Or a Halloween or Scream or Sherlock Holmes or something like that. It just feels so tired and indulgent for him to be telling us all again how much he loves movies. Just show us what you do so well behind the camera and get out from in front of it. I don't want to hear the Dolphins talk about the history of football and why they love it, I just want them to play well and win some games.VinylGuy wrote:oh ok yeah yeahtree_ wrote:QuenTar.. supposedly his last film.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
yeah, i agree with that, but im not interested on QT´S STAR TREK!! or something like that. And while i agree with style and execution are his highs, when he had a very weak scrip like in Django, the results were awful too.tree_ wrote:For me, his style and execution is what matters.
