The Hateful Eight (2015)
#11
SEEN! 

I side with ED in this one. I was amused. Sure, there's a lot of pretentious overdone pseudo-philosophizin' dialog, but that's a Tarantino hallmark. And there's some moments of ultravi that are also signature. Perhaps because y'all warned me, I wasn't expecting much. Perhaps I'm more accustomed to the Tarantino style. That doesn't bug me as much as the fact that he gets away with it and the critics fawn over him. It's grindhouse schlock that for some reason gets acclaim. Must be all that philosophizin'. It's like those drunken midnight rants you might have at 1am but spattered with ultravi.

I should mention that I just tapped a new bottle of Kavenagh Single Grain (not bad, Irish smooth with a bit of spice at the end). Maybe a quarter of the way in, I started taking a sip with every N-word. Two thirds of the way I had to stop, but had a delightful buzz for the ultravi finale.

The gauntlet is thrown down. Over to you, Maestro.
