Django Unchained

Re: Django Unchained

But, I definitely dont anyone else could have played their roles better than Jackson and Waltz. Especially, Jackson. He was made for that part. But, I dont think Jonah Hill was necessary for the movie. His part was funny, but his part forgettable.

I don't think Jonah's inclusion was supposed to be particularly memorable. I think it was just supposed to catch the audience off guard. The first time they show him its low light and he's next to someone else, so it kind of makes you wonder if it was him, I actually heard someone behind me whisper "Is that Jonah Hill!?" and then he has his lines and its just one of those out of nowhere things. Unfortunately they kind of ruined it by showing that part in the trailer.

That's the thing. It is one thing that he had a small part. But, by showing him in the trailer, it would lead someone to think he had a bigger role. If they hadnt showed him in the trailer, than it would be more of a surprise.

There was alot of movies I passed on(last movie I saw in theaters was Safe House). To see this movie, tells me how good it was saw. Heck I cant even play video games twice after I beat it once. I watched it the 2nd time with better understanding and it still felt like I didnt see it before.

:Sam Jackson standing up straight "I count 6 shots n****"
"I count 2 guns n****"

Really what was he going to do anyway to DJango. He wouldnt be a match in hth combat.

Re: Django Unchained

I saw this last night. As a full-fledge movie experience few directors come close to matching Tarantino with this. It is amazing how much he has fleshed out his movies since the minimalist stylings of Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction. With Inglorious Basterds and Django Unchained everything just works together like cogs of a finely tuned machine elevating every aspect of the movie. The soundtrack, the dialogue, the flashes of comedy, the torrents of action, and the performances just all went together to really make one of the most epic feeling westerns since Leone was directing. You can tell Tarantino has a love for movies because he "gets" them and how special they can be.

Typically I'm all for comparing films, but I just cannot compare this to my other top favorite of the year yet, Looper. The two are so different in overall tone and style, but both are executed almost flawlessly. 1a and 1b most likely.

Foxx really blew me away. Coming into this I was still imagining what Idris Elba would have done, but coming out I couldn't imagine anybody but Foxx in that role. Waltz was superb and I just love listening to him talk in both this and Inglorious Basterds. I hope he continues to work with Tarantino because the two compliment each other like few actor-director combinations. All the guest stars/cameos were awesome which surprised me after so many scheduling conflicts led to recasting. The KKK scene was probably the most hilarious scene and completely absurd lol (side note: Anybody else want to see a western where Don Johnson and Kevin Costner are cowboy brothers?).

I really loved the way this movie unfolded. It didn't give you an outline within the first 5 minutes and follow it through to the end. The story progressed and revealed itself as if it was really happening then. My expectations for what was next were non-existent and I had no idea how things would play out.

Spoiler

The last scene between DiCaprio and Waltz was excellent and really left my mouth hanging wide open. I really was not expecting that entire last act all, but from the bloody shootout to Django's return it was a glorious ride.

It's hard for me to pick out favorite scenes because its full of special moments, but ******* was this a badass ride.

Jamie was great for this part. He has the good mix of knowing when to be serious and funny. Idris could have did the serious parts well, but I dont know if he could have did the funny parts well.

Spoiler

I sorta had that feeling after they met. As you could Waltz was really bothered with the fighter getting ripped apart and the way the slaves was getting treated. I sorta had the feeling that he would be the one who killed Leo. I dont think Candie would have done anything. I just think he would have said a smart remark or tried to get them killed as they left.

Oh yeah, I definitely thought Doc was gonna kill Candy, but I really thought him and Django had a plan for when **** went sour. I expected Django to have a derringer pop out his sleeve and tag the guy with the shot gun.

Maybe its just me and my audience, but I felt some people were laughing at some wrong parts. Like random parts of dialogue or random parts of action, which honestly I didn't think was too over-the-top gory other than the buckets of blood lol.

At that moment, yeah I kind of expecting Django to kill Butch. But remembering he didnt have any weapons on him, I knew he was going to die.

What's sad is that I've not seen a Tarantino flick save for Django Unchained. Well, I've seen some of Kill Bill Vol I and some of Kill Bill Vol II. I'm going to purchase Pulp Fiction today though. Read A LOT of great things about it. Gets pretty high praise.

Please make sure Reservoir Dogs and Inglourious Basterds are part of that collection as well.

Re: Django Unchained

excellent movie, one of the best ive seen this year, and there were some great performances

The entire soundtrack is awesome also, especially "Who did that to you" by John Legend and "Ancora Qui" by Elisa and Ennio freaking Morricone. I wouldn't be surprised to see either of these songs nominated for best original song. It would be cool to see Morricone finally win an Oscar

Ya cool song, loved the way they used it in the movie. It was pretty badass

They did a great job with the music in this movie. The entire soundtrack is good.
