After reading the Django Unchained screenplay I know that a lot can change in between, but I like that he's really goin' for the classic Cinemascope thing. (He mentions it four times on the first page of the script.) Also, without spoiling too much, who wants to guess how many pages in he drops 'friend of the family'? EDIT: More relevant content - that's a drat fine poster.

That's true but let's not pretend he doesn't love dropping that word. Dead friend of the family storage is actually the only part of Pulp Fiction that makes me cringe. Of course it's always terrible whenever he appears in one of his films. I rank Pulp Fiction as a top ten film of all time, for clarity's sake.

I don't care how many times people in Tarantino films drop the N-bomb, but this is a terrible argument. People in the 1800s did not talk like they were in a Tarantino film.

Never, but that word was super common back then, and it's not like he's even used it in this context (of a western) for people we aren't supposed to immediately identify as loving terrible assholes who deserve to die. "Dead friend of the family storage" really seems like it was written for a black actor though and changed when he ended up playing that role instead of the drug dealer, and is pretty indefensible.

That would be totally counter-productive. I'm sure you'll agree that it's in fact possible to both mock and revere an artistic figure for the same thing. I don't see mocking Tarantino's repetitious and self-derivative use of the word 'friend of the family' as any different than mocking the repetitious self-derivativeness of any other artist. I literally praised the script in the same instance that I mocked one aspect of it. K. Waste fucked around with this message at 22:17 on Jul 30, 2014 |

I'm not accusing you of it, really, but when Django came out the amount of backlash against the fact that he had southern slave owners saying "friend of the family" made him a secret racist and he shouldn't have had them say it was crazy. It's the same complete lack of being able to put thing in context that makes most SJWs unbearable.

It's the same complete lack of being able to put thing in context that makes most SJWs unbearable. I like how we agree that the backlash towards the use of 'friend of the family" in Django Unchained was bad criticism, but I totally disagree about the defensibility of "dead friend of the family storage." If anything, that's the scene in which Tarantino's repressed vulgar desires are the most explicitly equated with a castrated, ineffectual, desperate nobody who clearly uses the word just to make himself seem like a bigger man. Critics like Armond White have commented on this; pre-Kill Bill, Tarantino's use of the word 'friend of the family' virtually always had explicitly negative connotations. But I don't wanna further derail about Tarantino, so I'll post an awesome Tarantino poster, which I can't fathom why isn't the home video cover: Ain't no drag with Jackie Brown, of course.
