Quentin's magic is no longer without Sally

After watching the extended version, one question is whether Quentin has changed editors. The procrastination of the film is really disgusting. After checking, it turned out that Salimenko died unexpectedly in 2010. Maybe after that no editor will ask a big director like Quentin to cut the film more refined. Quentin can use his ideas in his movies freely, but it is difficult to create something like "Pulp Fiction". The boutique. It is also a non-linear narrative, the standard of this film is far from "Pulp Fiction". The lack of language in the camera is so heinous. The plot is almost driven by the lines, but after a lot of nonsense, the plot seems to have no progress. In terms of photography, more lenses are placed on the bright coffee pot. Throughout the movie, this coffee pot is not the most important object. Using color to highlight this prop is more like a dazzling technique, and on the dining table. The light from above makes it feel like the director has no other way to tell the story. Quentin has watched many Hong Kong movies, but the shootout scenes are still so boring. Some viewers will compare this movie to "New Dragon Inn", but the fighting scenes of "New Dragon Inn" are even colder than this movie. It's much more beautiful, and it's even more enjoyable with the soundtrack. In this film, apart from the boring lines, the rest is blood plasma of violence for the sake of violence. In addition to non-linear narratives, can Quentin rely on lines to support the plot? We can think that this movie is Quentin's upper limit, he is nothing without a world-class editor. Of course, we can also think that Quentin is still a world-class director, but lacks an excellent editor.

The Hateful Eight quotes

  • Jody: [to Minnie] Judy said something about the best coffee in the world?

    Oswaldo Mobray: [smiles] Yes, I do believe Judy did say something about the best coffee in the world!

    Minnie Mink: [laughs] Well, I don't know 'bout all that. But I'll tell ya what it is: it's hot and it's strong and it's good! And in this snow it sure enough warms your ass up!

  • Major Marquis Warren: Beggin' for his life, your boy told me his whole Life Story. And YOU, was in that story General. And when I knew me I had the son, of the Bloody Nigger Killer of Baton Rouge, I knew me I was gonna have some fun! It was COLD the day I killed your boy. And I don't mean snowy mountain in Wyoming cold... Colder than that. And on that cold day, with your boy at the business end of my gun barrel... I made him STRIP. Right down to his bare ass. Then I told him to start walkin'. I walked his naked ass for two hours... 'fore the cold collapsed him. Then he commits to beggin' again. But this time, he wasn't beggin' to go home. He knew he'd never see his home again. And he wasn't beggin' for his life neither, 'cause he knew that was long gone. All he wanted, was a BLANKET. Now don't judge your boy too harshly, General. You ain't never been cold as your boy was that day. You'd be surprised; what a man that cold, would-do-for-a-blanket. You wanna know what your boy did? I pulled my BIG, BLACK, PECKER outta my pants. And I made him crawl in the snow on all fours over to it. Then I grabbed a handful of that black hair at the back of his head... And I stuck my Big Black Johnson right down his goddamn throat! And it was fulla' blood... so it was warm. Oh, you bet your sweet ass it was warm. And Charles Chester Smithers sucked on that warm black dingus for as loong as he could. Hahahaahaha! Startin' to see pictures, ain't ya?
