What a magnificent performance. We might be witnessing a top five all time team.
You should watch Jackie Brown immediately. And probably Pulp Fiction.
The older I get, the more Jackie Brown runs away with it. It really is the most relatable movie as an aging adult, where the rest are generally too fantastical by comparison.
Including his screenplay-only credits here.
I have still not seen Hollywood. I imagine it would be below Hateful 8 for me.
Jackie Brown is very underrated and easily his best movie IMO.
Reservoir Dogs is a great film, but in the context of his work, generally overrated. It’s more its own piece of film history than something to be compared to his more mature work.
Kill Bill is tough. I think I could make the argument that it’s easily his best film—but for rewatches, Jackie Brown has it beat handily. It’s hard to rewatch the Kill Bill saga conveniently.
The rest are honestly neck and neck. I think Pulp Fiction is #1 when you’re new, but kinda recedes into itself against his whole catalog.
Pelicans are an unfortunate “what if” franchise the last half decade. The Grizzlies seemed to have achieved escape velocity from a similar boat, finally.
Warriors @ Rockets
