What's your opinion on American Beauty? Or Battle Royale?
What are you defining shitty as, are you judging by plot or director shooting style or acting skills or what?
I really enjoyed Americanbeauty. Greay Movi.

Pulp Fiction is the shit 
Tarantino is massively overated. I'll give him a little something for style but overall he's a mediocre director lacking in any level of substance. He's basically been making the same movie over and over again since reservoir dogs.
That's barely worth telling you that's not worth responding to.

Reservoir dogs is a shot for shot remake of city on fire. A Japanese film. Tarantino copies a lot of his work. But I love his style anyway. He's very heavily influenced through Japanese work and pretty much just copies it. That being said I love all of his movies.

Tarantino's movies are good action movies that don't take themselves too seriously.

Tarantino-s movies are meant to be purely enjoyed as entertainment. There is never meant to be some deep thought or whatever you like to call substance..
I remember reading that he himself said that he likes to make movies he would've enjoyed watching as a kid. Just pure entertainment.

Django goes against that, in my opinion. Sure put a lot on my mind anyways...

Love it. He's my favorite director. Every movie he makes is worth a watch Imo.

Inglorious bastards, true romance, pulp fiction, kill Bill series, Reservoir dogs. THe list goes on and on. Django unchained was a great movie. Fucking ridiculous.

We watched a couple Kurosawa films in 12th grade English (I know, right - I was about storytelling and film) I don't really remember much.

well no, not really... he is considered the Kubrick of Japan,... not that really means anything. but he does old school films... alot of them are in B/W, and they are only like anime in the way that Japanese things are like Japanese and shit.
but i like seeing like foreign films and shit though. i mean especially Japanese, Russian, French, German, generally there are classics from all of Europe and such... but East Asia is a place that does dramatism very differently from our western drama's.

I really enjoyed Americanbeauty. Greay Movi.
It's one of my favorite movies of all time too, although it was a little too….... I dunno, too white culture suburbia for me to personally relate to?
I wish somebody would make similar, well-done movies about different ethnic communities of all different classes, without doing it in a way that portrays the same tired old racial stereotypes that are always played time and time again
