That movie is GREATNESS. The part where Rick Dalton is talking to Mirabella Lancer and he realizes that he really connects with the Easy Breezy character in his western book is GOLD. Then in his trailer : "you had to have 8 whiskey sours? You ****ing alcoholic...you get your shit together or I'm blowing your brains out all over your pool tonight!" I also loved the part where Cliff Booth (Pitt) goes to Spahn Ranch and visits George Spahn. The way the whole thing culminates and peaks in the last 20 minutes...greatness. The only thing that I took issue with was the "acid-laced cigarette". Everyone knows you can't smoke LSD.

Pulp was phenomenal.
The others are really meh. What exactly is his schtick? Making historical movies with slapstick endings? Once Upon is ok (rented it the other day) but realllly slow the first hour and the ending is more humorous than serious art. |

Lots of honest and legit takes on this, everyone’s entitled to see art as they wish
Championing his more far out fare is fine, they’re arguably his best works... but there’s something to be said for his more grounded works like Jackie Brown, Once Upon, even going back to his incredible True Romance script He does realistic crime as well as anyone... Cliff Booth/Ordell Robbie types will always be more interesting to me than Pai Mei and Beatrix Kiddo |

Quentin Tarantino Says He Might Write A ‘Once Upon A Time’ Novelization
Quentin Tarantino’s Oscar-nominated “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” has been available for months now. But that doesn’t mean fans and the filmmaker, especially, are done talking about it. In fact, Tarantino is talking about how he may revisit the story for a new project, completely separate from the “Bounty Law” series that he wants to direct. He’s talking about expanding the ‘Once Upon a Time’ story into the world of the printed page. Speaking on the Pure Cinema Podcast (via IndieWire), Tarantino briefly mentioned a new project that he’s been thinking about, which also ties back into his most recent feature. “I hadn’t thought about that until recently. But now I’m thinking a lot about it. I might be writing a novelization to ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,’” the filmmaker said. Obviously, as we’ve seen with other novelizations of films (cough ‘Rise of Skywalker’ cough), the expanded page count allows for a filmmaker to delve a bit deeper into the characters and plot of his film. And considering we know that there are tons of deleted scenes that didn’t make the final cut of the film (but maybe could make it on Netflix), there is a lot of material that Tarantino has lying around that could make for the definitive story of “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.” Another interesting aspect of this proposed novelization is how the filmmaker would actually be involved in the writing. Often, as with just about every other novelization of a feature film, a third-party writer is hired to take the story and expand on it for the paperback edition. It’s incredibly rare to see a filmmaker actually take the idea of a novelization and use it for his own means of expanding the story.

Watched this 4 times in the last 8 days on Starz, and love it more every time... none of them were ever more believable

I've come to the conclusion that it's probably the best movie of the last 10 years.

Pitts Cliff Booth made the movie for me. I found the Rick Dalton stuff kinda boring.
But every scene involving Cliff was magic.
