@BLAIR M Schirmer Obviously this is going to be subjective! But for me, Pulp Fiction and True Romance are his top works. Dogs is not quite my thing but I can see that it's good work. Django was fantastic. Jackie Brown I remember enjoying but would need to revisit to confidently give it a thumbs up. OUATIH though it had excellent moments was not satisfying overall. IB was not for me. KB1+2 weren't really for me either (too much of a fan of Asian cinema to enjoy seeing it riffed on/ripped off like that). So I guess I have three and a half or four. Which are your two and a half?

That's an outstanding idea. Writing scenes from memory when you get home and eventually tailoring them and adding to them. Starting with a blank page and creating a scene is impossibly daunting for most people. I'm blown away by this idea.

It just seemed like a real, casual, but interesting, often funny, conversation. Later, it was hard to imagine someone could have actually "written" that. I think it was the little commonplace asides, like "I don't know. I didn't go into Burger King", that made it seem so real...

My dialog is going smoothly , very smooth today . I really love my story.

This dude is the reason why I really started wanting to be a writer- I mean on a serious level. It was back in 2005-06, I was in prison, on my bunk watching Pulp Fiction for the first time and it was like reading a book but watching it. I was captivated. His style was simply direct to an extreme that it came off as genuine and real. This dude gave me a new found respect for simple delivery that it is my signature til this day. The way he would introduce each part of his movie as a chapter- I still do that today. I've always been intrigued by this dude's dialog. I really don't believe he writes dialog all by himself for each actor/character in his movies. I think the actors help him because the dialog is so specific for each character.

Tarantino's real gift is plotting. He thinks it's dialogue, but actually all his characters have his one, singular, voice. It can be a fun voice when he's got a good plot-driven scene going as well, but if we're stuck with a tangential Tarantino monologue coming out of multiple characters like the middle bit of Death Proof, it is not so good. I didn't notice this until several movies in, but after that, going back I can see it even in Reservoir Dogs (which is still a great film).

You described what I noticed closely for the first time a little while ago watching again some parts of Kill Bill and I think Hateful Eight better than I could describe it. I usually just think to myself, huh, that's odd, sounds like I'm hearing the filmmaker talking. One thing I try to do when I see that, just to make sure, is imagine the director talking over it, and it fits perfectly. I felt the same with Lynch the other day watching Twin Peaks. And because those are two directors who speak so uniquely, almost like a caricature, it's even easier to notice. But yeah I think this is one big trait in his dialogues that always take me off from the experience when 'those' scenes start to happen, because it feels like it's him talking to himself, well put a tangential tarantino monologue coming out of multiple characters. It's almost like he is a voice that keeps trying to talk by the characters, in some scenes he is whispering through 'em, and in those show-off monologues he's screaming.

I love you, Quentin.

His voice is about 2 octaves higher than you'd expect from looking at him

Well, I'm very happy that you did explore it a little bit more!

That’s crazy that not only is Ronnie Coleman one of the most badass bodybuilders of all time but his influence is also the reason we have Tarantino films

When "Pulp Fiction" came out in theaters, film critic Gene Siskel said Quentin Tarantino was "...writing the most original dialogue since David Mamet."

Genius! I’m going to practice this

YES! I knew it. I've seen the influence. Elmore Leonard has great conversations in his fiction!

All artists start out by copying and then riffing on artists they are exposed to, whether they're aware of it or not. This is a terrific example of that process.

That very interesting.

The same thing happened to me ! It was completely different, but I can hear what he's trying to say, kinda.

Wow, great technique

That reminds me of Kill Bill, the first several times I watched it, I didn't watch it as a martial art film, though I am really into training martial arts. Recently I watched it again, and the whole time, I am thinking, though I noticed the martial arts in it, why I didn't "fully" notice that it is almost constant. Then I watched it again, to notice all the martial art references to types of martial art movies and movie production companies. I could hone in on particular things, and more fun out of it.

You can totally see his italian roots by the way he moves his hands while talking

David Mamet is no surprise, his dialogue writing has influenced generations of writers.

"Maybe I should explore this a little bit more." And thus, a legend has born.

I thought I recognized the David Mamet influence. Was one of mine too, since I was the lead in "Sexual Perversity in Chicago" back in college.

It’s interesting that he included mamet and pryor.

He also read many lines when he played character Richie from From Dusk Till Dawn

Interesting... I hate writing dialogue because it's so... difficult. Now, I'm not interested in screenwriting, but I HAVE been trying to write stories for some time and this subject always trips me up. Quite frankly, I suck at it. It's too much or it's too little. It's lame or it's ridiculously over the top. Too much "he said-she said" or not enough. Sometimes I just ignore those altogether and find myself with a wall of quotation marks and words... It's maddening! So, what do I do? Usually I use Select All-Delete. And I'm always thinking... my dialogue has to move the story forward, it has to reveal something - personality, backstory, thought process... SOMETHING pertinent to the story. It's one of the most difficult things for me to do. It's caused me to go months without writing anything at all at times. :) But never to quit.
