Definitely not.

Bone Tomahawk is great. It's funny and more shocking and stranger. Hateful Eight is like watching (or listening?) to someone run in place for three hours.

man bone tomahawk was such a fuckin trip

Even more definitely not.

I tried to watch this again last night (actually I had started watching Kill Bill - which is so good right from the very first frame - but was more in the mood for a western and it turned out this was streaming for free) in the hopes that a second viewing might improve my opinion of it... but nope. It really drags and drags instead of building tension, like QT doesn't know how to effectively scale down his schtick to what is essentially a stage play, the whole basic premise defeats him and we're left with a bunch of pointless diegetic dialogue and a couple isolated bursts of violence that don't carry any weight. SAD!

I thought Bone Tomahawk was fine but it drags way more than Hateful Eight. The latter was surprisingly fun and gave me a welcome kick of macabre glee like I haven't had in ages. Loved it. Goggins was particularly fun.

Huh. I thought Bone dragged on purpose, which made the violence and very fast action all the more shocking.

I can't wait to see Bone Tomahawk again. Can't imagine sitting through hateful eight ever again.

In what gravity well does Bone Tomahawk drag more than the Hateful Eight

I even prefer its stylized dialogue over hateful eight. It's funnier, too.

can we just burn this thread and salt the earth

jfc enough with bone tomahawk

That opening piece of music really is perfect too.

Pointless dialogue

Unlike yknow that other dialogue that changed the world

Remember back in October 92 when Reservoir Dogs taught us all what Like a Virgin was really about, and just a few weeks later Clinton won the election?

I'm with Vegemite but for the corollary

No Bone Tomahawk blows too, enough with making things last forever in the assumption it'll make us think it's meaningful or something

Say that to stonehenges face

I thought that was basically an attempt at a watch

Time is a phat circle iirc

Hey, all these new gory westerns are crap compared to the canon of olde. But man, The Hateful Eight sucked. It sucked. It was awful and terrible. It completely wasted its cast. Many, many bad television shows are better than the Hateful Eight, like the one where Andre Braugher is the captain of the last nuclear-armed submarine on earth. Let's kill this thread and talk more about Last Resort.

I stand by my assessment that it was fine, not great

in fact if anything all the complaining itt just makes me want to watch it again in the hopes that i might enjoy it more

"captain of the last nuclear-armed submarine on earth" sounds like catnip to me, i'm a sucker for all things submarine

I fucking hate this movie.

XP second watch of H8 is very rewarding. Totally different movie

:D

this movie is as empty as a drum

"captain of the last nuclear-armed submarine on earth" sounds like catnip to me, i'm a sucker for all things submarine

Oh man Last Resort is amazing you have to, have to watch it

Great credits sequence, pure garbage thereafter

sold!

Last Resort is a 1 season idea with a dollar store Kurt Russell, El Tomboto you need to come up with a sliding scale for "amazing"

let's continue the thread & never talk about Last Resort itt again

i just watched the trailer and it has subs in it so it owns qed i will brook no disagreement

dude i watched it, tombot is high

(ok look tbh it was p cool)

So I'm the biggest Hateful Eight fan here?

Maybe I should see Django.

I honestly can't remember which I liked less, but I want to say Django.

I half-liked this but also felt every goddamn minute of its 3 hours. It might be a different movie on rewatch but I can't see myself ever sitting through it again.

Nobody's impressed with Tarantino like Tarantino is, and I'd say the whiff of that goes back to Kill Bill Vol. 2 and continues through everything after.

I liked it very much as well, though I haven't watched since the premiere. I love the opening music, and I've written repeatedly about how much I love There Won't Be Many Coming Home at the end. I like it as a coda to his revenge films, where it's really just, well, hateful.

I honestly can't remember which I liked less, but I want to say Django.

Django is his worst film by a distance so great it would take the running time of Django to traverse it

I don't see how anyone could rate H8 over Django.

otm

They think it's a better movie

Then they assign it a higher scoring of whatever type based on that subjective opinion

Django pisses all over H8. Django and his horse piss all over it!

Then Trump sidles alongside H8 for some of that shower.

Sorry -- I just think H8 is awful.
