Quentin Tarantino shocks fans in Melbourne
Samuel L. Jackson gives a typically charismatic performance as Marquis Warren, while Walton Goggins and Tim Roth (who plays Oswaldo Mobray) provide moments of comic relief during the bleaker moments of the film. It’s motherf*cking Samuel L. Jackson and Quentin Tarantino, after all.
“There’s a realer than real universe, alright, that all the characters inhabit”, he explained, before eluding to the next layer: the “Movie Universe”. Tarantino thanked the crowd for their support for the film which was being shown on 70mm ultra Panavision film at the cinema.
Eclectic film director Quentin Tarantino will tonight hit the red carpet in Auckland for the New Zealand premiere of his newest film, The Hateful Eight.
From Pulp Fiction to Kill Bill, Quentin Tarantino’s movies have always had a distinct style and tone and now the acclaimed director has revealed his movies are all, in fact, connected.
The singular universe theory “isn’t 100% correct”, Tarantino told The Project, as there are two of them. The other universe is a different “movie universe”.
‘So when all the characters of Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction, when they go to the movies, Kill Bill is what they go to see.
Tarantino also teased fans with the inclusion of a secret family member from the “realer than real” universe somewhere in “The Hateful Eight. From Dusk Til Dawn is what they go see”. The same name is seen on a headstone in the grave yard in the Kill Bill movie where Uma Thurman’s character, Beatrix Kiddo is buried alive.
Hey Quentin and Samuel, if could let us know next time you drop by to say hi, that’d be great.
His decorated body of work has always been the subject of intense scrutiny, praise and adulation, whether it’s his genre-mashing Pulp Fiction or, more recently, a barnstorming Civil War thriller in the vein of The Hateful Eight.
Tarantino flew in from Australia where he did press for the movie, winning over Aussies by declaring his love for Victorian Bitter beer (evidently it doesn’t take much to win over our neighbours!).
I did think about the idea of the Vega brothers, taking place before the movies when like Vin was in Amsterdam and his brother Vic/Mr Blonde comes and visits him, and their adventures.
