503604, Y'all ready for Tarantino's Slavery Spaghetti Western? Posted by CaptNish, Mon Feb-15-10 02:00 PM http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=63341 Quentin Tarantino Wants to Make a Western Source:NY Daily News February 15, 2010 The NY Daily News caught up with Quentin Tarantino, who says he's interested in making a Western, but one that is a little different. "I'd like to do a Western. But rather than set it in Texas, have it in slavery times. With that subject that everybody is afraid to deal with," Tarantino said. "Let's shine that light on ourselves. You could do a ponderous history lesson of slaves escaping on the Underground Railroad. Or, you could make a movie that would be exciting. Do it as an adventure. A spaghetti Western that takes place during that time. And I would call it 'A Southern.'" Tarantino has previously mentioned he'd still like to do a third Kill Bill movie as well.
503606, I'd like to see an Inglorious Basterds with escaped slaves. Posted by Madvillain 626, Mon Feb-15-10 02:10 PM Have a Big Bear Nigger bludgeon a plantation owner.
503608, It's a good idea. Posted by SoulHonky, Mon Feb-15-10 02:12 PM People can hate but it would make for a good movie.
503629, It'll be during the Civil War guys... Posted by da_illest_one, Mon Feb-15-10 03:36 PM And it would be pretty boring, fulled with Tarantonesque dialog that stretches the movie on for three hours. Samuel L. Jackson will definitely have to be the movie though. Hopefully he'll do another Kill Bill but it would hard since the man who plays the main character has passed away.
503635, So? Posted by SoulHonky, Mon Feb-15-10 03:50 PM And I'm not saying that QT won't screw it up, but it's a good idea. If someone wanted to make a good movie and not a b-movie, this would work.
503906, Kill Bill 3 was never supposed to have Bill in it... Posted by soulfunk, Tue Feb-16-10 05:47 PM >Hopefully >he'll do another Kill Bill but it would hard since the man who >plays the main character has passed away. It was supposed to be years later with Vivica Fox's daughter getting her revenge against the Bride.
503907, Not to mention his character was already killed Posted by Wrongthink, Tue Feb-16-10 05:55 PM
503631, another revenge fantasy? these are much worse than m. night's twists Posted by Basaglia, Mon Feb-15-10 03:42 PM
503634, A.K.A. 15 minutes of excitement, and 2:30 of "slave-sounding" dialogue. Posted by Frank Longo, Mon Feb-15-10 03:46 PM Irreverent commentary where slaves hypothesize over Eli Whitney's dick size, and discuss how Swing Low Sweet Chariot has a secret "Kill Whitey" message in the lyrics. And the words "dis" and "dat" will be written all over the script in place of "this" and "that".
503638, damn, i can see that happening 100% Posted by There Will Be duD, Mon Feb-15-10 03:51 PM

503666, sigh Posted by BigWorm, Mon Feb-15-10 05:40 PM 1. This post is obviously soon to be bombarded with ignorant Tarantino bashing and then subsequent claims towards everyone else being mad. 2. Tarantino always talks shit about his ideas for new movies for like 3-5 years before he actually makes a new movie--and that movie usually has nothing to do with any of the wild ideas he mentioned in interviews. "I'm gonna do a prequel to Pulp Fiction about the Vega Bros." "I'm going to do a movie like The Great Escape." "I'm going to do a kung-fu movie in Asia with an all-Asian cast." The Kill Bill 3 thing he's been talking about for a while now. He said it would be about Vivica Fox's character's daughter, all grown-up and out for revenge against The Bride (Uma). We'll see if it ever happens, although I'm cringing already at the thought of him writing another black female into his script (even though I warmed up to Deathproof after the second viewing, the dialogue he gives the o' girl in the last half of the movie was still embarrassingly bad). At the end of the day, hell, no one else is making a cool movie about slavery. If he did it, he'd at least get some great actors, and probably both makes someone's career, restore someone else's career, and help one of those actors score an Oscar nomination and/or Golden Globe...
503670, it SHOULD be bashed....fuck outta here Posted by Basaglia, Mon Feb-15-10 05:57 PM

503912, Im tryin to think of the rap song used for the climactic rebellion scene Posted by Bombastic, Tue Feb-16-10 06:20 PM When Will They Shoot? Protect Your Neck? Ante Up?
503934, "Still" by Geto Boys, as an homage to Office Space Posted by Frank Longo, Tue Feb-16-10 08:29 PM or "Mr. N*gga" by Mos Def, just because
503929, I'm very interested in who he will cast Posted by zuma1986, Tue Feb-16-10 07:24 PM I mean it's one thing to do a revenge film against the nazi's where Hitler is killed but to have black slaves killing white ppl (or whatever the plot is) is a whole other thing. I'm sure he'll get some big names (and the typical washed-up person to ad his usual flair) but I won't be surprised if he gets turned down by some black actors.
504125, lift's up toilet seat Posted by Quentin Tarantino, Wed Feb-17-10 02:16 PM see's M.Night and Spike Lee's career in it dig's through the crates for the next soundtrack, which already includes 4 Ennio Morricone tracks peruses through thread for more ideas to steal for "the southern"
