Guess Tarantino is unaware that we have these things called “fans” that can blow hair back much as actual wind does?
Yeah, Tarantino is a dick. A lot of people in Holly wood are dicks. You don’t have to be a nice person to make movies or art or write stuff or whatever.
Is there a term for “Oreo cookie in reverse”? Yep, Quentin Tarantino.
Continuing on the Id thing: It’s what’s enabled him to create so many great villains and anti-heroes in seedy underworld settings. Probably helped with the aptly surreal dialogue too.
We just used to call people like that wannabe’s.
I recall discussing John Mayer’s idiocy when he was discussing the fact that “he had a ‘Hood Pass” (i.e., knew he could hang with African Americans). :smack:
“Her hall features a large golden Buddha from her parents in Woodstock; her father, Robert Thurman, is a Buddhist professor of Indo-Tibetan studies at Columbia who thinks Uma is a reincarnated goddess.”
No wonder she has mental issues: her father must be smoking some ivy league pot.
And who the fuck takes such a ridiculous class with tuition being so high?
It would also probably help her case, if she wasn’t spotted being affectionate with someone who allegedly sexually assaulted her.
Not sure if he believes Uma is a Tibetan reincarnate. I used to be quite up on my Tibetan stuff, but this sure sounds like a load of Hollywood made up BS. Robert Thurman is one of the leading Tibetan Buddhist scholars, and he would not make a statement so unspecific as a “reincarnated goddess.” He has also acted as the Dalai Lama’s translator on multiple trips to the US (note the Dalai Lama’s English is quite good but he needs help with specific Tibetan Buddhist religious terminology).
But I digress. There are also multiple stories from Tarantino’s Kill Bill stunt coordinator
Keith Adams:
Quentin Tarantino, was deeply regretful and remains remorseful about this sorry event, and gave me the footage years later so i could expose it and let it see the light of day, regardless of it most likely being an event for which justice will never be possible.
‘He also did so with full knowledge it could cause him personal harm, and i am proud of him for doing the right thing and for his courage. THE COVER UP after the fact is UNFORGIVABLE.
THAT looks “affectionate” to you?
That is a person thinking "fuck, how do I get away!"look at her arms. That’s NOT affection.
If you think that’s affection, please don’t have contact with people. At all.
If by “affectionate” you mean “restrained”, sure. Might help to clarify the difference.
If I saw a guy grab someone else the way he does it in that picture, I would try to intervene or call security. That is scary.
Yes, she looks like a terrified person who wants to run away but feels the pressure to act as if sverything is OK.
Not on the stunt people, they weren’t on the set that day. A statement released yesterday by the stunt coordinator on the film said that Tarantino told them there would be no stunts that day. In fact it seems that Tarantino didn’t consider it a stunt. This is all down to him.
Right, right. She’s desperately trying to get away from Harvey
And this is not simply a matter of Hollywood, it suffuses a lot of fields of endeavor where “he’s a dick, but he delivers the results” is accepted as justification; also as in “(you/I) don’t have to *like *him, but he’s in charge”.
But it should be different, on the one side being a dickish personality while creating art or developing cutting edge products, and on the other feeling that you need to be a dick to other human beings and inflict hardship upon them as part of the very process of creating.
It doesn’t help that there’s cultural consensus that “being forced out of your comfort zone” is a *good *thing, because then who decides when you were not just pushed out of the comfort zone, but outright unjustifiably mistreated?
