Good point--he would have made a perfect reclamation project along the lines of Travolta, Robert Forster, Chris Penn even. I can imagine him in the Kurt Russell Hollywood role.

He’s been talking about the Bounty Law series for six months, but he talks about a lot of vaporware and he’s about to have a kid. Don’t count yr spurs before the cowboy saddles up, as my pappy used to say.

I mean, is there a list of all of the abandoned Tarantino ideas out there? It's not like he tosses away ideas at a Neil Young clip or anything, but he's talked about a lot that falls by the wayside.

Also the abandoned Vega brothers movie, and I think there was talk about a Basterds spin-off following a platoon of black soldiers.

He’s supposed to have a James Bond script done too. Would be very happy with Len Deighton though.

dude who gave up on the political process and tried to overthrow slavery personally through armed uprising and mass assassinations, convicted of treason and hung
a little late for the Young Vega Brothers but Travolta could use a guiding hand again. he should definitely not write graphic novels. he should definitely come out of the upcoming retirement and make a bunch of horror movies when he gets bored.

he should pull a Malick and disappear, and hopefully in 20 years there won't be any more movies

For me, ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD didn't live up to the hype. Tarantino had the look and the sounds down, yet it seemed pointlessly impressionistic. The Manson kids get killed, but they didn't really. It just reminds you that the massacre happened.
