Over the years, everyone has sat back and given this guy a pass on all manner of egregious offenses because he makes “good” movies.
First it was his gratuitous use of the N-word and various other racial slurs.
Followed by his grotesque objectification of women’s physicality, including his so-skeevy fetishization of Uma’s feet.
Next his casual attitude in depicting violence against women, in pictures like Death Proof and especially the Hateful Eight.
And through it all, he gets pass after pass, over and over.
Well I, for one, am about at the end of my rope after seeing Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, fuck him.
Actually, his fan base ruined him for me. I knew (still know, unfortunately) too many stupid guys claiming to be “into film” who all but masturbated over his movies.
I’ve never liked him in the first place and his fanboys are mostly man-children whose idea of serious cinema is drugs and violence and worship Nolan/Scorsese, aka two other overrated-as-shit directors.
