Re: The Hateful Eight (Tarantino, 2015) — The Reviews Thread
Here's an episode of "The Rebel," from 1960, that may have supplied Tarantino with some ideas for HATEFUL EIGHT:

very well done. liked the tension and the mystery. a little long for me, but very well done and the 2nd and 3rd acts were magnificent.

How was the presentation at Arclight? I'm going there tomorrow for my second viewing. Grossmont's screen was massive, but the presentation was marred by focus issues. It was like the bottom half of the screen was completely out of focus while the top was clear as day. If I knew it was fixed, I'd go back there in a second.

Yikes. I hope he gave the writer of that episode a credit in TH8, because he ripped off enough from it.

the more i think about this movie in retrospect the more i really dug it and got most of it. Walton Goggins i've always loved and was incredible in this. i really hope this turns into more for him. just really done, especially the last 2 chapters. not my favorite, but very well done! can't wait to see it again and see the roadshow version!

was that a fake letter from Lincoln that Warren made up? the very end with Warren and Chris seemed to elude to that, but wasn't certain...

Yes, He admitted it earlier in the movie when Mannix challenged him on it. There was a whole scene devoted to him explaining to Ruth why he would make something like that up.

Saw it again for a second time. This time just the regular version. Enjoyed it more the second time knowing what was going on. I didn't really notice any difference beside the lack of overture and intermission. I found it very strange that the QT narration stayed in.

Saw the 70mm Roadshow for the 3rd time since X-Mas. Took one of my best friends to the Grand Lake Theatre in Oakland, CA to see it.
Another sold out show! It was a 7:35p showing on a Wednesday night and the line was just as long as it was on X-Mas day, wrapping around the building and going down the street. Signs were posted all over the doors saying the showing was sold out and people asking for extra tickets.
Loved it just as much as I did the other times I saw it. My friend said he really enjoyed it too. Loved Ennio Morricone's score.

This was a goddamn masterpiece. Beats the shit out of Star Wars and gets to share the spotlight with Fury Road as my favorite films of 2016. Watched it in 70mm and it was glorious. Got one of them programs, too.

Not a weak actor in the bunch, although Tatum felt a little out of place. Luckily that didn't matter for too long.

Saw this in 70mm. It was everything I hoped it'd be. Happily, I didn't have any projection issues, though they seem to be rampant.

Actually the last scene alluded to it being real. I think almost everything he says is a lie, except for the letter. Maybe QT will comment at some point.

The more I sit and think about this movie the more I love it. I love the claustrophobia. I love the paranoia. I think that there could be some fat to trim but overall I think it was pretty great.
Reservoir Dogs was the movie that introduced me to Quentin Tarantino and made me think about movies differently. I've loved Quentin ever since. Carpenter's The Thing is one of my all-time favorite movies in any genre. The Hateful Eight is like a combination of the two.
I hope that I get the chance to see the Roadshow performance again before that goes away.
