The ULTIMATE favorite Quinten Tarantino flick thread!

O.K. now that you soaked up Kill's Bill, what is your all time favorite QT film? Do you still feel Pulp Friction is his top flick, or has the throne been toppled by KB?

This is one of the very few questions where I seriously have to come to the conclusion that all of QT's films are equally fantastic and are tied for my favorite. After watching KB twice, and rewatching all of his films on dvds multiple times this week, I am in the midst of being on a serious Tarantino kick! Watching all of his films together, you start to realize just how emphatically entertaining they are. His movies are truly infectious and I never tire of them. The guy is without a doubt the best working director of our time! I am seriously craving his next picture.

So what is your favorite?

And oh if someone has any info, could you please be kind enough to tell us what QT's next project is rumored, or confirmed to be. Thanks

I really can never get enough of QT flicks, though I still think him to be a bit on the fringe.

Of those mentioned, it's KB!

About a year ago he had intended on finishing Kill Bill and immediately moving to his WW2 project, Glorious (Inglorious?) Bastards. It is, I believe, a dirty dozenish type film, and he apparently has finished that script. Not sure what his current plans are, but I hope he goes ahead and makes it.

Pulp Fiction, without question. Snappy dialogue, some extremely memorable characters, and a narrative told way out of order all make for my ultimate Tarantino flick. Reservoir Dogs had everything that I mentioned, but Pulp Fiction just did it better IMO. Jules Winfield just might be the best damn character he's ever created.

Kill Bill has been the most entertaining, however I voted for Pulp Fiction. I can't say kill bill is the best, because we haven't seen the 2nd half yet. As far as direction and photography go, this is QT's best work. A lot more style involved here. But I'm just not sure he'll ever top pulp fiction (of course I could be wrong when i see vol.2)!

I know Pulp Fiction is my favorite. I can't rate the rest though. I've only seen KB once so it's hard to rank. Just watched Jackie Brown last night for the second time, it's been awhile. I gotta buy that one.

That's what I thought, until I realized I pretty much did the same thing for Matrix and LOTR.

Pulp, Kill Bill vol 1, Reservior Dogs, Jackie Brown.

That's unfair though, because I liked Jackie Brown a lot, but the others were really great.

i think if qt did true romance, it might just have been his best! I love that movie because the script is so good. And it has my favorite scene of all time (the sicilian scene) in it.

I have not had a chance to see Kill Bill yet but from what I've read and the QT promos I've seen (He really seems to be giving it a huge push), it will be my favorite (I love samurai, yakuza, grind house). But so far it's Pulp Fiction, Resevoir Dogs and lastly Jackie Brown.

I loved/hated Pulp Fiction. I hated the parts with Uma in them though. Everything else, besides her scenes, were awesome though. Kill Bill actually takes the top spot for me now, even though after viewing it the first time I was a little dissapointed. I think it had more to do with the audience around me than the movie though. I wish Tarantino would act in more movies. I loved him in From Dusk 'til Dawn and Desperado.

1. Kill Bill
2. Reservior Dogs
3. Pulp Fiction/Jackie Brown
