Quentin Tarantino's infatuation with the N-word - is this problematic?

[SuperTed]

Kill bill 1&2, pulp fiction, inglorious bastards, desperado,dusk till dawn and django unchained are top films..

Yous are letting your dislike for the false Hebrew cloud your judgements

Dusk till Dawn was great until it turns into a silly vampire flick. Although that and Desperado were Robert Rodriguez movies.
All Tarantino movies seem the same to me. Trying too hard to be cool and "hip" (hence his love affair with the N-word, the liberal politics and the OTT cartoony violence) and all with a predictable plot to do with revenge.

Reservoir Dogs, True Romance, and Pulp Fiction are the best of the Tarantino bunch. If you want to swap out True Romance for Jackie Brown(it being a full Tarantino film), and move Pulp up one, I'd go for that too.

What's wrong with you guyincognito? You black or something?

Typical Swede

It's only a problem for you race baiter.

Did you read the article?

[drkaje]

It's just a word.

[guyincognito]

It's just a word.

Words are everything.

[drkaje]

Words are everything.

Words only have whatever power people decide to give them.

There's no difference between calling someone an n-word, dindu, negul, Monday, Democrat, or whatever other gay shit people come up with if the intent is identical.

That's true. Context and intent is key.

That's true. Context and intent is key.

Even if someone has bad intent, it's stupid to let people have the power over your mood.

Let's face it: Most of us are idiots. Do we really want idiots empowered to decide how a day goes with a word?

I like QT`s flicks but all he is doing is ripping off the 70`s grindhouse movies and putting a new slant on them.

Nothing new under the sun.


Inglorious Bastards was one truly shitty movie.

No, but it's hard to manage your response to certain words. I don't know what it's like to be racially abused, but I imagine it's not somethings that's easy to shrug off for most people.

The fact that people get offended by someone's words amuses me.

Taking ourselves a little too seriously I think.

Who cares if he steals from here and there, as if any new film is 100% original.... Its just became kool to kick him

He steals everything for almost every scene. That is the point.

[guyincognito]

Talent borrows, genius steals.

[SquidVicious]

He's a megadouche. Makes movies glorifying violence and guns, marches in BlackLivesMatter protests while using the n-word 100 times in a movie. Perfect example of a Hollywood libtard masking all of his racism under the guise of being anti-racist.

But at least he stood up against police brutality right? That has to count for something.

I have no idea what your on about, never heard of them....

Sure, sure...like you've never seen the "women in cages/women in jail" movies from the 70s. Or the Pre- Daisy from Dukes Of Hazzard women. Basically exploitation films, a sub genre of grind house films of the 70s.

If you want to see what Tarantino go to source material is, just take a look at this site:

Along with the movies, Mandingo, Black Mama/White Mama, Cleopatra Jones, Bucktown, USA

He also sounds like a creepy, retarded inbred. His casual use of the n-word, is done purely for shock value and in an attempt to makes his films look more edgy and "real".

Just like Bill Maher

True romance scene with walken

Truly great

Tarantino admits he's infatuated with the N word because his mother had a black boyfriend who smoked weed and used the term all the time...so he feels he has a right to use said word...I agree with him....no one should have an ownership of words

white privilege point of view there, like a mofo. I dated black women before and I don't have the right to use that word.
