Get the Quentin Tarantino mug.Overrated director that steals something and calls it his own. Tarantino's a live "library" of movies (he sees a lot of "unkown" movies), but he´s unable to think and criticize about them without trying to sound "cool" to the media. What he has, ladies and gentlemen, is not an appetite for making original films. What he has is an appetite for plagiarism. He's the king of plagiarism. His movies are simply a formula, just cheap tricks to sway emotions. When a director can get your emotions going making films the art, not entertainment (not to say it cant be entertaining art) without the cheap tricks like Kubrick, Fellini, Tarkovsky, early Coppola and Scorsese, Welles, etc. thats when they can be considered great if you ask me. Tarantino takes it up a step by copying plots and scenes to the point that he's remaking the movie.
I read somewhere that the scene in "Pulp Fiction" where Travolta is shooting up before going to pick up Mrs. Wallace was stolen shot-to-shot from a scene in Drugstore Cowboy. What does Tarantino "Um........it's an.....homage?" How disgusting.
Tarantino is an overrated plagiarist.

Get the quentin tarantino mug.Made the brilliant decision of promoting himself first. See for instance his commentary on TRUE ROMANCE, where he discusses in detail the conscious choices made in putting together his filmography. He's created a compelling public persona in the form of a tireless, foul-mouthed movie geek.
He also shamelessly loots other people's material, but given a pass, proving Van Gogh right that "an ounce of image is worth a pound of performance" (Compare with David Blaine).
To take an example at random, see for instance the famous adrenalin scene in the even more famous film PULP FICTION. As shot it is taken nearly word-for-word from a 70s Scorsese documentary on Steven Prince. Prince has all the details: medical dictionary, magic marker over the heart, the size of the needle, the jabbing motion, eyes popping open.
This is NOT homage. Homage is a way of honoring others, pedestalizing them. Tarantino is a self-promoter first. Go ahead and reference how the Duchess dances in ARISTOCATS, but taking someone else's story and shooting it almost exactly as described is just sorry.
