Best film of the 80s - QF4 - Trading Places v the Blues Brothers

[Baleforce]

It was when you were 9 or 10, watching Jurassic Park.

Reservoir Dogs is brick. I'd have to set fire to the forum if that made the semis.

Lol

 

[Baleforce]

The Blues Brothers goes through to the last four.

Lol

There's not enough Goldblum in Reservoir Dogs

Check out the directors cut, he plays Mr Bronze

Pulp Fiction wins the 90's for me

The Big Lebowski for me. The only film that I have ever left the cinema and walked straight back in to watch it again.

Yeah, I was thinking about this today and it should go through over Reservoir Dogs. Would still put KB:TWBA over either, but that's out by a decade.

 

[Baleforce]

Both good shouts, but Jurassic Park had dinosaurs and Goldblum.

It also championed being smart, I’ll plant this here now and re link when the competition gets underway.

Imo, Tarantino’s best is Inglorious Basterds

If Die Hard wins the 80s and The Big Lebowski wins the 90s, I'll know that I'm on the right forum. And if neither of these things happen, then you are all qunts.

Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair. Parts I and II released as a single film, which is how they should be.

I’d put that at the bottom of the heap with Jackie Brown.

We’ve already established your credentials, no need to keep digging.

Inglorious Basterds just felt a bit by-the-numbers. Django had some great performances, and Hateful Eight was a proper return to form, but Basterds - meh. Maybe films set in cinemas should be watched in cinemas and they don’t work on a sofa, so that’s where I went wrong.

I really like Jackie Brown

Might give that a go tomorrow when the GF is out - can't remember much of the second volume.

Is there a specific edit of this you can watch or just a case of watching one after the other?

Probably his third best movie if you don't count From Dusk Till Dawn. He's really hit or miss. Basterds was great while Kill Bill is just garbage. It's even worse than Nolan's Batman movies.

Part two of KB is a lot weaker than part one.

 

[billyiddo]

I liked KB 1 but it was definitley the point where Tarantino started to go too far up his own arse

 

[Rorschach]

The blues Brothers? What the fudging fudge?
