Speaker 1 (00:00):
I thought this was kind of halfway interesting that he
ranked his own movies, and the thing that it's a
the Church of Tarantino, it's a podcast, and so he
started ranking his own films on there. You know what
did not make the top three. Take a guess at
how disappointed I am that it didn't make his top three.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Was Samuel Jackson in it? Yes, that's what I figured.
I don't know your obsession with that blasted movie pulp fiction.
I just I mean, it was a movie. You loved
that movie.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Well, the thing that is really.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I did think that's definitely a top ten for him.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Well, and it may be they didn't do They just
did the top three, and they pointed out that it
was not in the top three, which I said, are
you kidding me? Really, that's the thing that got me.
And yeah, of course I like the movie. I thought
there was a lot of really memorable lines in it.
That's almost kind of how I gate movies. It's like,
(01:00):
how easy do I remember different lines in a different scene,
so on and so forth. You know, when they're in
the when they're in the diner, and you know, honey
bunny and stay with me, honey Bunny, and just there
was just a lot of really I felt like cinematic
just brilliant with regard to that. But but then someone
(01:24):
like you was going and it's a stupid movie. I
don't get it, you know, with that for whatever reason,
it it resonated with it.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Just I don't I'm not gonna say I disliked it.
It just was it was odd in that very almost
comic strippy to.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Me, Yes, and it was like it was like five
different movies within one movie.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
I didn't know how to take it.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I mean, I just it's supposed to make you feel
the way you're feeling right now, but unfortunately with you,
you're like yeah, well. As a result, it felt so discombobulated.
I couldn't get into it.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Yeah, oh man, I shot more than in a faith.
I was just saying, I told you. I was the
same way with that Napoleon Dynamite that my daughter made
me watch one Thanksgiving after dinner, we have to watch
the Success to be your Family movie. And I thought
it was a preview, and like twenty minutes into the movie,
I'm like, when does the movie start? Yeah, I because
it just it wasn't a real movie. It just in
(02:16):
pulp fiction was kind of the same way, like Samuel
Jackson almost seems like a cartoon in this.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Definitely.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
I thought him and Travolta were fantastic together. I thought
Travolta and Uma Thurman were fantastic together. I thought Bruce
Willis was really really good at it. It had a
lot of memorable stuff for me. Anyway, it didn't make
his top three, which I was scratching my head over.
It wasn't a top to bottom full list though, so
(02:44):
Tarantino instead he said, you know, his favorite of all
the films was one that I haven't seen. Have you
seen this Once upon a Time in Hollywood? Yes, that
was Quentin Tarantino.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
That's his He's saying it's his favorite one. Okay, have
you seen it, Zach, Once Upon a Time in Holly? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:03):
I liked it a lot. I could see why he
loves old Hollywood and he loves the sixties seventies Hollywood
type of ye feel and vibe. So it totally makes
sense that that's his favorite movie. It was his homage
to all that.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Stuff inglorious bastards never did see that one was his masterpiece.
He goes on to say, I when I saw that
and you know it's Brad pitt I. I didn't get
that movie. For me, that really didn't resonate with me.
I tried to watch it because I do like Quentin.
I love his quirky style and all the different things
(03:40):
that he brings. I typically will like it, but that
one for me.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Just didn't resonate. So you had not You have not
seen that. Never saw glorious Bastard.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Never saw it?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Did you see it? Zach?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah, I liked it.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
I can understand. I can understand what you're saying. It's
Tarantino trying to make a World War two movie. It's
a little odd, but he.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Calls it get that.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
He calls it his masterpiece. Now I will say kill
Bill both volumes, and he mentioned that as his saying
that you know that was was the film or films
that he was born to make because nobody else could
have made it. He goes on to say, you know,
I saw Uma Thurman talking about that, because obviously she's
the main character in kill Bill, one of the main
(04:23):
well i'd say maybe the main, but she talked about
how she goes. I don't know what it is with Quintin,
but he gets me in these movies and he enjoys
getting me all dirty.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
And like, you know, slimy.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
And I'm paraphrasing, but she's saying, I don't know what
it is about this guy, but he gets me in
these movies and he does this kind of stuff to
me as part of the script or whatever.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
But did you see Kill Bill Volume one or two
or but no?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I again, I think the title probably kept me from
wanting to see them.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
I think.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Madson was in that. You know, Vivica Fox is in it.
I think, knowing that you didn't get into pulp fiction,
you probably won't like kill Bill either. Would you guess
that Zach about about Chuck since the way he didn't,
he's like pulp fiction stupid.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Yeah, kill Bill was completely Tarantino. I tried Jango and Shine,
but after about half an hour I gave up on that.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
I didn't like that either. I was there something specific
that I.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Just didn't like it. I'm just like, this is the
feelingst of my time.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah, yeah, so you, I would say, then you're not
even a Quentin Tarantino fan.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
It's not overall. Most likely his name is not going
to draw me to the theater.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Yeah, it's certainly an acquired taste for sure, and it's
definitely not for everybody. But I just thought it was
interesting that he ranked his own movies and then pulp
fiction didn't even make it in the top three. I
think if you're a Quinton fan, you probably like pulp fiction.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Wouldn't you say I.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Love pulp fiction. I don't know how anybody does. Chuck's
the first person I've met who's like, h, I don't
like it. Reservoir Dogs is good, I would be remissed.
His most underrated movie was death Proof. If you've ever
seen it or no, I haven't get given a chance.
It was that Grindhouse double feature with Rodriguez.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Watch both of them. They're good.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
They're both like ninety minutes. You can watch it one afternoon.
But yeah, it's highly underrated. So and you definitely know
it's a Tarantino movie.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
What's it called death Proof? Death Proof?
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Yeah, it's a guy who goes around and uh, stalks
women with cars with his car is the best way
I could put it.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
But yeah, and he has a way of making the movies.
I feel like, you know, you go, that's real life,
it could happen. I feel like he it's like, yeah,
you could say that, but then it's almost like it
goes too far and it goes from you go Okay,
that could kind of happen, and then when you're watching it,
(06:59):
it goes so far that you go, Okay, it's back
to it can never happen, right Like for me.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Like dialogue is so like I'm the opposite of Chuck.
If Quentin Taranty was like, Hey, Quentin Tarantino is remaking
Home Alone, I'm there. I will watch it.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
It'll have nothing to do with the original or.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
What happened, no name only, but it would be good
for me at least.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Anyway, since we have a second here, do you have
You've got a power hour obviously coming out, but do
you care to say what you're going to be doing?
I know we haven't really done.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
This, but we're going to spend some more time on
the the proposed merger between Tegna and and what do
you call them? I want to know, I mean, I
want to get people, the people out there, I mean
the consumers of this product, the viewers of the product
that's paramount. What what do people think of this? So
(08:00):
I want to give them a chance to call up
and just give me maybe they can change the direction
on my thought, because I'm very apprehensive about this whole
thing right now.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
You're like, yes is a no go, and you don't
like it at all.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
One company, twelve stations in one city that I just
I feel like that's too close to that's wielding too
much in the way of influence over the people of Columbus.
That if if you get a bunch of you know,
dedicated left wing people running the show coming in here,
owning twelve visual frequencies in this city, yea, I'm a
(08:30):
little worried about what kind of messages they may propagate.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Yeap, that could be bad.
