I really appreciated Jackie Brown when I rewatched it again last year. I saw it when it came out but was disappointed, likely because I was too young and just wanted more raunchy gangster stuff like Pulp Fiction and Resevoir Dogs. However, Jackie Brown is really interesting with how it has characters that don't sound like they have all their lines written by Tarantino.
Jackie Brown is soooo good! It definitely deserves to be remembered alongside Tarantinos' greatest works. Personally, my ranking is Inglorious Basterds, Django Unchained, Jackie Brown, Pulp...
Jackie Brown is soooo good! It definitely deserves to be remembered alongside Tarantinos' greatest works. Personally, my ranking is Inglorious Basterds, Django Unchained, Jackie Brown, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Reservoir Dogs, The Hateful Eight, OUATIH, Deathproof.

His ten film limit is entirely self-imposed. Get rid of that and the expectation that his "last" film needs to be an absolute banger go away entirely.
For one, it's insulting to directors who have directed incredible movies after their tenth. I get that "writer-director" is a different dynamic, but then what do you do with writers with more than ten novels or screenplays?
Tarantino's filmography has allowed him to do whatever he wants for as long as he wants to. Why throw that away?
Also, give "Once Upon a Time..." another chance. It is as rewatchable as any of his other films, and I'm sure the Movie Critic would be as well, if he'd given it a chance to see life on the screen.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is one of my favorites from him (with Django and Inglorious making the rest of my top 3 for him). It’s endlessly rewatchable for me.

This is disappointing to hear as I was quite interested in the story but I'll always trust QT. The Once Upon... novel was a great read though, and different enough from the film to be its own thing, so hopefully we may eventually see The Movie Critic somewhere down the road in book form.

I don't know how serious it ever was, but I remember he expressed interest in making a Star Trek film. I think that could have been pretty great.

I'm hoping he moves to writing and cranks this out in that format. The novelization for OUATIH was great.
