He is an absolute legend. Especially his script for the CSI episode where Nick is buried alive and
the man holding him hostage blows himself up for no reason. Just like Planet Terror with all the
random explosions, which actually starred Tarantino |

Hi hidell, thanks for bringing it up.
Like Jakers says it is hard to define a genius, then I ask myself. Did he write true romance? Yes,
can I watch that movie over again? Yes, Did he write and direct Pulp fiction a cult classic and play
a great character in the film? Yeah, is he a legend in his own lifetime? Oh yeah Definitely. |

Genius is such a strong word, but he deserves it i think. The dialogue in Dogs to the gore of Kill
Bill is all very witty and melodramatic. Hes tried to redefine genres and bring back old movie
traditions. He's somewhat of a pioneer, and his cult following is undeniable |

I would say so. It would mean slightly stretching the borderline of the Genius category. To create
Pulp Fiction, True Romance, Jackie Brown and the Kill Bills he deserves to be considered right up
there. Pulp Fiction is a work of Genius.
I was not so keen on Resevior Dogs. |

Genius? No. But good, yes.
A lot of his movies are pure junk made by ego (e.g. Four Rooms), so his highs and lows are more
extreme than most filmmakers. But considering how high he can reach (PF, KB 1&2), it's worth
putting up with the occasional piece of crud.
Bryan Singer (Usual Suspects) seems to fall into that category too. |
