Current Events > The Hateful Eight seems underrated

(+) Yeah! (+)

I had a whole thing typed out but I lost it because I accidentally motherfucking refreshed. Anyway it's great.

The one scene where you know who got his balls you know what still makes me cringe. Just thinking about it.

Oh man, and the flashback scene was nuts too.

One of the things I was on about in my intended op was how it plays even better on subsequent viewings, even knowing the plot. For instance there is a really long shot of a battered Daisy looking out the window at the end of the carriage ride that hits so much harder when you know what's coming.

it was too small and situational for me. it felt like a small, self-contained play with virtually no outside influence, like the closest he's ever gotten to a sitcom instead of his usual stories.

I don't get what you're saying here. It's contained like Reservoir Dogs. No outside influence except Civil War aftermath, a blizzard, and the threat of Daisy's gang. Sitcom?

I was disappointed when Justified ended because Walton Goggins is amazing. Hateful Eight wasn't perfect... but Samuel L. Jackson, Walton Goggins, Kurt Russell, Michael Madsen and Tim Roth all in one movie? Maybe it lost a bit in terms of fanservice... and had over the top dialogue at times... but shit... it was a fun and worthwhile ride. Tarantino for fans of Tarantino.

Seeing Kurt Russell outright slug a bitch was well worth a viewing.

The worst thing to me was the first time he cracked her over the skull with his pistol in the carriage.
---

It was really good until the bloodbath started. Overall it's okay.
---

I enjoyed it. Some of the people with me didn't, though, mostly due to its length.
---

It's good, it's just not as good as Tarentino's other films.

And I agree with the other poster, that one scene is uncomfortable to watch.
---

I legitimately thought you were talking about The Ridiculous 6 until I remembered that Tarantino directed That Hateful Eight

Of his 2 westerns, I preferred it unquestionably.

Does anybody else find a lot of people misinterpreting what SLJ says to Bruce Dern as a flashback and not Dern's imagination? My dad did, somebody in this topic did (I think), plenty of other internet discussion. I see how people make the mistake but the movie makes it pretty clear it's made up. SLJ clearly wants to provoke him enough that he tries to kill him. There's an edit that overlays the scene in the snow over Dern's head, as if it's what he's imagining as opposed to objective reality. The way he pulls the blanket up like he's being told a scary story. "Starting to see pictures ain't ya?" It's not some unique observation obviously I'm just surprised how often I see this.

That scene was indeed SLJ BSing him. His delivery was so good that the scene felt so vivid that it was disturbing.
---

I can't remember if I liked it or not when I saw it. The music was good, but the people I was with didn't like it and I don't remember if I agreed or disagreed.
---

I got really excited when it looked like it was going the way of a murder mystery, but then that fizzled out real quick and I was just like oh. Well then.

John Ruth spraying blood all over the table was fucking stellar.

The music and all the big long shots of the environments at the beginning before we meet anyone were so freaking creepy. The rest of the movie didn't exactly fit up with the mood that built up, but I loved it anyway.

I'm sad that dingus is one of the most memorable parts of the movie. It overshadowed a lot of the better moments just with pure shock value/ridiculousness.

Everyone hollering about the door was pretty freaking funny every time it happened.

Especially when you find out how it got that way.

Lol wasnt calling you one. Or implying you should give dingus a try.. Was quoting the two things I came to say lol. I wasnt really a fan either, but I was kinda tired and not feeling it and I feel like I might also need a rewatch.
And "dingus" became my new favorite and excessively overused word after I saw this. My gf would get mad. Still kinda does when I say it from time to time. Lol

Channing Tatum had what? 15 minutes on screen? But he absolutely killed that role.
