You had my curiousity, but now you have my attention lol
Somebody better make me some "not" figures ;D

Seems an odd mix, Tarantino and Westerns....
But he's not let me down yet!

Ditto, that'd be fun.

I don't know--the sunglasses and the funk music are a little hard to swallow...

For me its more about seeing some variety in my gunfighters.

Another over-hyped Quentin Tarantino film ;) Of course...
I'll see it, but purely for the bounty hunter, one of my favorite actors.

Same here Christoph Waltz (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0910607/) is Awesome!!!
I so want a model of him!!!
-
I never heard Christoph Waltz speaking English. Sounds funny to me if you are accustomed to his German.
Anyway...I give it a chance. I like Westerns I like Italo Westerns and I am curious what Tarantino makes out of it.
Thanks for posting the clip

I second that, Any chance to see a Western today cannot be a bad thing.

I would normally agree, but the ecception being anything made by Quentin Tarantino, a person I personally hope will get eaten alive by a very large shark.
-
I have to agree with Galland - it looked pretty cool, until I saw Tarantino's name. Then it looked like something trying really, really REALLLLY hard to be cool.
That's not to say I might not rent it, given the chance. Or see it in the "cheap seats" second-run theater...
-
Well, it can't be much worse than Dawn Rider, that came out this year...
But I am also a bit apprehensive when it comes to Tarantino. Some of his films I thought were brilliant like Pulp Fiction and Inglorious Basterds, others, like both Kill Bills (I know, I know... Stone me to death!), were not worth staying awake.
This looks quite cool... The blue suit kinda threw me but I guess it fits with Tarantino's style. Definitely gonna see it though.

I think Tarantino makes very competent movies...what I don't understand is the saintly praise all of his movies get before they even come out. He is wildly overpraised for simple films. I have not seen a single Tarantino film that I thought was "amazing". There have been some excellent roles played in his films, but as a whole, I think he is very overrated.
This constant, unending praise makes me want to see his films even less. I think it's just "hip" to adore Tarantino films?
-
I can a sure you that there is nothing hip about me but I really enjoy his movies and really look forward to this one...

Tarantino strikes me as a prime example of someone whose work has suffered from his success.
Back when he was starting out, and still had to pay attention to criticism, he produced solid, well-structured work with a flair for dialogue and story construction, like Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction. With the Kill Bill films and Inglorius Basterds (forgive me if that is not the correct mispelling), there is far too much self-indulgence. It seems there is no one willing to say to him, "That scene drags," or, "This sequence is all very well in itself, but it unbalances the narrative," or, "These actions are insufficiently motivated, " or, "You can't be serious about casting Eli Roth." Or, at least, no one who he'll listen too.
It seems to be a common problem. Stephen King's best books are his early ones, before he got too big to edit. J K Rowling's Harry Potter books just got more and more bloated. The worst episodes of Russell T Davies' run of Doctor Who were the ones he wrote himself.
A good editor should have a price above rubies.

Realy? I liked "Cell" and "the girls who loved tom gordan" a lot. "Duma Key" was also very good. But then I like most Stephen King novels.
Agreed on Tarantino, the trailer looks very uninspired. "Pulp Fiction" was cool when it was released but it's extremely outdated today. Maybe the only worthwile Tarantino movie is "Reservoir Dogs".
