I keep meaning to give Jackie Brown another shot. I watched it on release and was so disappointed with it but I have lots of friends whose opinions on movies I trust that really love it. I’ll get around to it someday.

It just feels weird that that's the movie he made after Pulp Fiction.
I watched it once back when I was first getting into Tarantino, but appreciated it much more watching it again recently, definitely worth it. Samuel L Jackson says it's his favorite Tarantino role; I'm not sure I would say I prefer it over Jules, but it's up there.
 
Jackie Brown is top 3 for me for sure. Hard for me to pick between that, Pulp Fiction & Kill Bill. Just depends on my mood on a given day as to which is my favorite. I don’t think he’s made a bad film. The Hateful Eight is probably at the bottom of my list, but there is still a lot I like about that one.
 
Wife and I saw OUATIH today. I loved it and I can’t wait to see it again. I probably won’t make it back to the theater but I’ll watch it again. I enjoyed all the tv ads/jingles. That goddamn OG Taco Bell and just the entire aesthetic of the movie. I loved watching scenes of a movie while watching a movie.
I loved the Antonio Margheriti Easter egg.
I haven’t ranked it yet but it makes me want to rewatch his other movies and make a list.
Right now Death Proof is at the bottom.
 
I watched half last night before calling it a night. Man, something truly spectacular is going to have to happen soon to change my opinion on this one, it is slow as fuck. Even if it does come good, worst pacing in one of his movies hands down.

Haha it definitely does escalate, there's a very tense sequence where the plot elements kind of implode into each other. Based on your comment even that might not be the payout you're looking for though.
 
Recently saw John Wick, liked it quite a bit. Not sure I have anything revolutionary to say about it but the characters were engaging. Think it would be fun to see a film just focused on the hotel's staff, but I'm led to believe that's what 3 is about. Also, the sheer body count was kind of taking me out of it by around the half-way point, but I've always been kind of allergic to ‘awesome’ things, so… Probably just me.
