Tries too hard to be like Tarantino movies

Any film with witty dialogue made after 1991 is simply imitating Tarantino's work.

When I saw this movie I knew that the director didn't have an original bone in his body and was just imitating the flawlessness of the legendary god Tarantino.

Any movie with witty dialogue and a great storyline that doesn't have QT's name attached to it is an automatic fail.

I'm not trolling you moron...

Your post is so utterly ridiculous its natural to assume you are trolling. The fact that you aren't(supposedly) makes you the moron. You think Tarantino invented witty dialogue?!

You know Tarantino takes a lot of his stuff from older works? That includes characters, some plot details, and even a lot of camera shots

So As Good As It gets is imitating Tarantino?

Any film with gangsters in it made after 1972 is simply imitating Francis Ford Coppola's work.

Once you've seen Tarantino, you've seen him. Everything he had done up to 1994 is all he'll ever do.

Because he said; "I'm not trolling you moron...", implying that he is serious, and also very *beep* stupid.

He's not trolling. He's sarcastically making a point.

Are you not entertained?!

"Any film with witty dialogue made after 1991 is simply imitating Tarantino's work" - As Micheal Palin once said, "What a strange person."

I like Tarantino films, but the first thing I noticed while watching Snatch was that it was a bit better than Tarantino's work.

The fact that the characters don't use the n-word like others use commas demonstrates this is better

7 years later (lol)....
Anyway, my buddy and I were watching this earlier when Guy Ritchie's name came up in discussion. He mentioned that when he first saw it forever ago, he originally thought Tarantino had written and/or directed it.

I asked him to consider how many times they drop the n-bomb in Snatch. He thought about it for a minute and concluded that it couldn't have been Tarantino as they don't even say it (never mind saying it excessively throughout).

Any critique about Guy Richies' work made after 1991 is simply imitating Roger Ebert's work.

When I read this critique I knew that the author didn't have an original bone in his body and was just imitating the flawlessness of the legendary god Roger Ebert.

Any review with no substance and only inflammatory rhetoric that doesn't have Roger Ebert's name attached to it is an automatic fail.
