I hope the soundtrack for the book is better than the film's. Okay--gotta go!

yay! looking forward to thisfor authenticity he should farm it out to an as yet unknown writer or established writer w an alias & base it on an early script draft or something other than the final shooting script so it’s full of weird new details not seen in the movie that we can nerd out on

More Quentin enthusing about old movies, if less focused: Edgar Wright worked through some top-of-the-head list of cool British films that Martin Scorsese gave some kid at a Q&A, then wrote to Scorsese asking for more recommendations. He fwded the reply to Tarantino, and the two of them have been powering away at it in lockdown, and here's three hours of them chatting about ones they've both or each seen.
(direct mp3 link. Quentin's audio is recorded on a phone in a tiled room, so plan to listen indoors.)

Nice!!! Thank you. Excited to listen to this. QT is living in Israel rn right?
― flappy bird, Monday, 8 February 2021 19:41 (three years ago) link
Yep, in Tel Aviv.

This was an enjoyable listen even if Tarantino comes across as the overexcited-bordering-on-rude-nerd much of the time ( cutting off the other participants and eating up a huge chunk of the time with his own anecdotes). Kudos,as well to QT for no longer ending every statement with “Ok?!”

Someone on there mentioned “The Enfield Haunting” so I ran to find and binge watch it last night. Fantastic.

I shoulda said "138 characters - not nice," d'oh
even if Tarantino comes across as the overexcited-bordering-on-rude-nerd much of the time (cutting off the other participants and eating up a huge chunk of the time with his own anecdotes)
feel like Wright is a good partner to have on this, as he knows Tarantino well enough to chime in when necessary, and has enough of QT's respect that he's given his own time to talk. he's usually relaxed and chatty on PCP, not uptight-to-the-point-of-rude but I still expect him to talk for 3.5 of the four hours
(kudes to RC for posting, I was gonna link it once I've listened but that might take a few days)

I really enjoyed the three hour marathon on old British films, fast forwarded when a) Tarantino talks about his own movies (he talks about them wih the same fervour and IT'S SO AWESOME energy he brings to his fav films by others, it weirds me out) and when he talked about the Joker, as I fear being jokerfied and do not want to run the risk. Still, pretty fun to see these two grindhouse geeks go all Talking Pictures TV.

Edgar tweeted afterward that he once bought Quentin the complete Carry On box set, but Tarantino is scared to open it.
― grab bag cum trash bag (sic), Wednesday, 3 March 2021 11:04 (three years ago) link
sic at 300 baud that’s an extra 4.5 seconds
― assert (MatthewK), Wednesday, 3 March 2021 11:27 (three years ago) link
(altho as always I applaud your stance)
QT should at least watch Carry on Screaming, which would sit p nicely on the Scorsese list (the cinematography on COS is by Alan Hume, who also shot things like Kiss of the Vampire for Hammer and Dr Terror's House of Horrors for Amicus, so visually the film is a perfect pastiche of the colour palette/values that Scorsese (rightly!) loves so much about Hammer, or Mario Bava).
― Ward Fowler, Wednesday, 3 March 2021 11:33 (three years ago) link
I think he's scared to open it because he's afraid to die of laughter

he would come back to complain about clickbait that debunks itself if you get baited to click?

Another 3.3 hours, but with more give and take: on PCP again, with QT and the two hosts talking through five picks each for great final films by directors.
the morbsbait here is Quentin saying that addressing how many filmmakers' final works - or decade - is terrible, in preparation, made him consider not making a tenth film before quitting... because Once Upon A Time In Hollywood would be such a great mic drop.
― bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Friday, 4 June 2021 11:04 (two years ago) link
Has one of the host guys abandoned his shtick of going "I'm definitley with you on that, that's a great point" to every fucking thing QT says, even if he's directly disagreeing with him?
― Daniel_Rf, Friday, 4 June 2021 11:05 (two years ago) link
They're kinda like that most of the time anyway, nerds who don't want to have negativity in their show at all. But yes (I'm an hour in) you do need to apply a slight mental obsequity filter.
― bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Friday, 4 June 2021 11:19 (two years ago) link
xpost Maybe the 20-hour version includes a segment on Chappaquiddick from a month earlier, with the Mod Squad saving not only Mary Jo Kopechne's life but Ted Kennedy's presidential aspirations.

Wow these podcast hosts are such sycophants.
― SQUIRREL MEAT!! (Capitaine Jay Vee), Friday, 4 June 2021 13:22 (two years ago) link
Yeah, Edgar Wright and Empire podcast host dude were better at reigning Tarantino in a bit.
One concerning thing I've taken on from these podcasts is that QT praises scenes from his own movies with the same amount of energy and awe that he gives to his fav films by others - and I do think he's illuminating on those.
― Daniel_Rf, Friday, 4 June 2021 13:26 (two years ago) link
I'm not sure how he can top Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, makes sense he'd seriously consider stopping now.

― Feta Van Cheese (Neanderthal), Friday, 4 June 2021 17:29 (two years ago) link
Yeah he's not directing it
― flappy bird, Friday, 4 June 2021 17:33 (two years ago) link
He referred to Once Upon a Time as the "climax" of his career, so I've been thinking his 10th & last will be smaller scale, maybe only half a dozen characters, limited setting(s). Can't do Kill Bill vol. 3 or his Wuxia movie or another Corbucci homage or the Vega Brothers. Only precedent in his career is Jackie Brown -- something like that, not an epic, just a kickass cool movie, maybe a little more muted. Because he's going to end before he hits 60, I also doubt his last film will be preoccupied with aging/friends and loved ones dying as so many final films do. Maybe it'll be closer to a stage play, leading him into the next phase of his career.
