Keitel isn't a white pimp. He's a Jewish pimp...
He's the King of Rock and Roll!
In each Dirty Harry film characters I liked were killed. I do not watch the films any more.
Wow, this is some great production
Eric Martin would have been a fantastic replacement for Dave or Steve(Perry). He is the most underrated rock vocalists in history. Along with his own Mr. Big replacement, Richie Kotzen.
Sam Halen fukn sucks! 🤘🌎❤️
I don't know, Skyscraper was a dam good album and Eat em and smile was decent enough. Dave did fine.
Absolutely awesome work, sir. I hope you get the credit you deserve and produce more of these Tarantino videos. 👏
As someone who writes a Substack about movies and features a film review section about little known or forgotten movies, I appreciate Tarantino constantly referencing barely known and unknown films. At least someone else out there is also promoting such films. Good to know.
Taxi Driver has a protagonist who is repellent , unattractive and aliennated from the society. What Travis Bickle is is an antagonist as protagonist , the villain as hero. What shapes Taxi Driver is the so called lone shooter or botched shooter of the 1960s and 1970s. Arthur Bremmer who shot George Wallace . Therefore Tarantino's interpretation of Taxi Driver as influenced by or a byproduct of Michael.Winner's Death Wish is blatantly wrong. This isnt a revenge movie nor an avenge movie. Its an angry loner becomes a shooter movie. Every aspect we see of Bickle shows him as a reject from society: crappy apartment, taking Cybill Shepard to see a porn film, the way others see him. Therefore the film Is taking its audience through this journey or cab ride through Bickle"s life.
I like the added complexity through the whole catalog. And his Rogen interview explained his entire (very wide) range of influences. Also, a very traditional connection to the American song book. Imo it makes his place in history greater. He had a huge knowledge of history, in music and culture.
wow, really never noticed it, until now. very True.
Where is David Lee Roth? You know we need him more than ever now. Oh. He has his own KZread channel. Nevermind.
brilliant
Making lists of movies I need to see. You're a treasure.
I saw him on this very tour in Providence..it was a killer show..loud.
Oh give over Tarantino... stop over analysing a true great film
After Forever is definitely derived from Moby Grape's Fall On You
Holy shiz that's a good shout. Never heard it before. Thanks!
After just watching the clip of Sinatra holding his hands out and pathetically rolling a guy 🤦... I'm so glad he didn't take the part 😆😆
On point 👏🤘
If it wasn't for Vai, his solo crap wouldn't have even done as well as it seemed to do
VH bounced back immediately with Sammy and 5150 , Dave released Eat and Smile two of the best albums from the 80's... killer material on both albums
Source? This sounds like ai
The words are from QT's book, the voice is AI.
@@TheTapesArchive ah ok
Your videos are fantastic, however I wish you would be a bit more open about them being ai generated for the voice, I think many think this really Quentin commenting here, even though those are exactly his words out of the book. Otherwise a great picture you build here.
Fair point. I pinned the comment about being AI voice in my latest video. Does that help? kzread.info/dash/bejne/l32CpcZ6d62Tkaw.html
@@TheTapesArchive Oh absolutely! Have a good day and keep doing what you’re doing, your good at it ;-)
Spot on
Sport pulls Iris out of Travis's taxi long before the mohawk scene, which causes a major narration continuity error when explaining the timeline of when audience put away it's laughter and become more serious.
Yep, QT gets a few facts wrong. Good shout!
@@TheTapesArchive Great video
I enjoyed this very much. Point Blank is one of my favourite movies, and i still occasionally re-watch it 👍
Loved that some one from across the pond like it.
@TheTapesArchive - I've actually lived in Thailand for the last 16 years and have hard drives full of old movies to keep me entertained when I get some spare time. 👍
What an amazing job. This is so great, I couldn't stop watching for a second.
Thank you! Have you seen my new one? kzread.info/dash/bejne/l32CpcZ6d62Tkaw.html
Pity De Niro on his last performance, threatening a past president... So De Niro was not acting at all in Taxi Driver.. His rant against his former POTUS may have been the last confirmation for a crazy person to commit an atrocity.. Thanks for nothing De Niro.. You just showed what a mook you really are... Bully for you Rob.. Yeah/Nah..!!!
Symptom Of The Universe is my favorite track!
I could listen to this for days
So exactly like today
Burr nailed it
He can talk! Love this
good job!
Todd Berliner's analysis of Taxi Driver in "Hollywood Incoherent: Narration in Seventies Cinema" blows away Tarantino's like a pimp's fingers. Tarantino is the most overrated film analyzer ever. And Tarantino has held a grudge against Scorsese ever since Scorsese anointed Wes Anderson as his favorite new filmmaker (this was back in 1997) and not Tarantino. Brian Cox said it best when he described Tarantino's films as "meretricious." That's exactly what they are, and that's exactly what Tarantino's ideas about others films are: They look good at a glance, and then you get up close and see that they're really nothing that special and totally empty on this inside. Tarantino just talks and talks and talks and gives you autistic details about where and when he saw particular films, but as for what he has to say about them? So what and big fucking deal.
I'm looking for new person to do. I will check out Berliner's book. One of the reasons I like QT's writings is he brings in all kinds of oddball pictures I've never heard of. BTW Did you like the video otherwise?
Tarantino is a dirt bag.
He dug up a lot of his early on influences with his solo records. Like gigolo, California gals, etc… (DLR solo roasts any of the Van Hagar or pretty much anybody else too for fairness😃 The solo records really reflects on the fact how much genius Dave had to offer to Van Halen which consequently become a problem at the end. The band carries the name of the brothers but when you say this name you think at least 75% of Dave He also likes to talk lot about how much he loves Al Jolson, and the guy who wrote the original Gigolo that Dave added his trademark parlor trick and turn the melancholy into a happy song. Dude Dave is a beast and you gotta understand he grew up on 78bpm music. Motown, Downtown, James Brown, Al Jolson and so on. If you really listen you can find them, but he chew them and spit them out completely different. Anyways, whatever the fuck Dave does turns into gold. Sorry, Diamond I mean💎
another cool vid! one of my fave parts of the book that made me laugh was qt describing the grindhouse crowd watching/lol at this film - def not how i first experienced it. also clues you into where his own films got that special mix of humor and violence
I am posting this here, in addition to my reply to your pinned post asking for feedback. I am fairly certain my replies aren't visible to people most or all of the time anymore. I think it is not only unnecessary, but mighty weird. Do you feel having Tarantino's voice lends more credibility to what is said, somehow? Why else choose to do this?
I can listen to this ALL DAY!
Great job Alan, i found it quite interesting also i wanna go buy his book now, for real!
Love hearing this. Thanks for checking it out and commenting. Please subscribe to my channel if you haven't already. If I get to 100k subs I may be able to make more videos.
Peter Boyle’s character in “Joe” is an asinine moron, however, I’ve noticed watching the film over the years that it’s a pretty biased view of the “average Joe“ through the lens of pseudo communist hippie mindset from the late 60s and early 70s. Because let’s be honest, half the shit that Joe says in the film we’ve all thought, most of us haven’t said it out loud, but it’s there. It’s a stereotype opinion of course used a little to liberally by some to describe all POC, but that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t apply to some…sometimes more than “some”. Infantilism parental government doesn’t exactly teach people to stand on their own 2 feet but you can’t expect a wide range of opinion in Hollywood films then or now.
Thanks for posting.
Im a White male , 43 years old, and learning about context of New Yorks seedy 70s history , the shots of that New York is the only thing that I ever liked about the movie. I never understood what all the hype was about. Like Tarantinos movie going peers in that theater, I thought Travis was a dumbass goofball.
What the fuck is wrong with the subtitles. Is this a dystopian censorship hellhole
Haha..I was afraid KZread would make the video adults only. So I changed some of the text. It was also supposed to be a bit humorous.
people always refer to Sport as white. I guess that's the case but I always thought he came across as kind of puerto rican or mixed race. Maybe it was just the way Keitell played him but that was my impression. Great flick.
AI sucks
If you have a smart phone, you use AI.
@@TheTapesArchive I know. I hate it. Still doesn't mean I have to like seeing AI artwork plastered across every website and thumbnail on the internet.
@@TheTapesArchive not hating on your content by the way. this was an interesting dissection of one of my favorite movies. Just tired of AI is all.
@@Shlogger All good, I somewhat get it. What I do has already started to be taken over by AI. But that's been technology for over 100 years. I have no choice but to understand how to use it otherwise I will not have a job.
@@TheTapesArchive i understand that as well. it's inevitable. I'm just bitching.. lol
LoL The Closed Captions are comedy gold.
I think Bickle has scars on his back from 'nam
They show them when he's doing push-ups.
