Death Proof is supposed to be so bad it’s good — but does it actually achieve the “good” part? This week, Eric and Levi discuss one of Tarantino’s most divisive films, with a little help from their friend from Germany. The talk explores which characters are likable, the merits of practical effects, and the actors that make Tarantino sing. Join us next week for Inglourious Basterds.
The second installment of the Kill Bill series brings us incredible characters, awesome fights, and an intense Texas funeral. Eric and Levi surely enjoyed this cinematic experience. QT seems to be honing his strong voice and concrete style while paying homage to the flicks that excited him throughout his lifetime. It’s an impressive piece of work. Join us next week for Death Proof.
The first installment of Tarantino’s Kill Bill series is packed with entertainment value. This week, the guys discuss Tarantino’s audience manipulation techniques, what makes QT comfortable, and the excellent performances from Lucy Liu and Sonny Chiba. Join us next week for Kill Bill vol. 2.
Time to revisit one of Tarantino’s most overlooked and most interesting films. Like most QT pictures, Jackie Brown is a movie that references the past while living firmly within the era it’s set. In this ‘cast, Eric and Levi walk through the deep characters, the twisting plot, and the powerhouse performances of this (maybe too long) cinematic experience. Join us next week for Kill Bill vol. 1.
It was super fun for Eric and Levi to re-watch and breakdown Pulp Fiction. The music, the characters, the stories, all twisted together like a bloody Neapolitan pasta. In this ‘cast, the guys compare and contrast Tarantino’s first two films, fantasize about Jack Rabbit Slim’s, and unravel the love story(?) that is Pulp Fiction. Join us next week for Jackie Brown.
Reservoir Dogs is the first film in our Tarantino series, and it’s a doozy. In this episode, Eric and Levi break down the characters, marvel at K-Billy’s Super Sounds of the 70’s, come up with a crappy fan theory, and decide on a protagonist in this whirlwind of a motion picture. Join us next week for Pulp Fiction.
In the first episode of Direct, Eric and Levi get you on board with the podcast’s concept, talk a little bit about themselves, and preview director Quentin Tarantino’s film canon. Up next week: Reservoir Dogs.
