if you're reading this I thank you for watching! Wishing you a great day! 🤞🏿😁
You'll notice that when violence is perpetrated against the bad guys (slavers, bounty targets, and so forth) that the violence is extremely graphic, but when violence is perpetrated against slaves it is almost all out of shot. That's deliberate and it's one of my favorite things about Tarantino. He recognizes the fun of cinematic violence against people nobody can defend (Nazis, slavers, killers, Manson family cultists) but doesn't take joy in violence inflicted on the innocent. A lot of critics miss that vital element.
Attention to detail let's you know no corners were cut. Love things like that as well. Thanks for watching!
I LOVE this about his films. That’s what good horror, thriller,drama-overall enjoyable movie watching experience is about.
What critics?

@@jeffwilliams2828people who don’t mention it I assume
The horse at the end doing the dance steps is Mr. Fox's horse. When he was offered the role he asked, " Can my horse be in the movie too?" 😂😂😂
that's cool they let his horse on.
I like that Schultz is Django’s savior without being a “White Savior.” He buys Django for an unethical yet practical reason, and giving him his freedom isn’t some grand gesture because it’s just a baseline decent person thing to do. But he feels that sense of responsibility for Django after doing so, and likes the kid anyway, and just follows that feeling. Their relationship after Django is freed is one of equals, despite their mentor/mentee-father/son-big/little brother dynamics.
Tarantino knows his stuff. The "White Savior" trope is too common in cinema and he made it so it didn't seem that way.
Something thay nobody picks up on is that he left the money there for the freed slaves to take.
He also totally blows the whole plan to shit at the end just because he couldn't shake candy's hand xD I love that he's such a organized and educated character yet that one gesture just tipped him over the edge.
Fun fact about Django's blue suit, Jamie Foxx did some research for the role, and found out that slaves were not allowed to wear clothing with colors that made them stand out. So when he went to wardrobe, he picked out the most colorful outfit he could find.
Fun fact: In the Mandingo fighting scene. The guy talking to Django at the bar is Franco Nero, who played Django in the original movie in 1966.
I’m pretty sure he’s playing the same Django which is why he ask Jamie’s Django to spell his name and already knows the D is silent.
@@BlueSoulVibee
Yeah, no.
@@johnt8636 he’s literally wearing the same costume
@@BlueSoulVibee
Are you saying that Franco Nero was playing the part of Django in Django Unchained?
The original Django was a gunslinger -- and white -- who hooked up with a hooker. Not the same Django.
Thanks for that piece of info I didn't know that myself.
The fact Shultz was so disgusted with the cruelty in which the slaves were treated and the abuse they endure that even tho it would be smarter for them and Django’s wife to leave,he genuinely couldn’t help but kill Calvin just to simply get rid of a vile and torturous human being,even if it cost him his own life and potentially Django’s as well.it goes to show how much he despises slavery and slavers as a whole,and just the king of person he was,one of my favorite characters ever.
he did great in this movie. he went out with integrity.
I do like the subtle things in this movie. Candy's sister playing Für Elise by Beethoven slightly off-key being the trigger breaking Schultz's will to restrain, for example - playing a piece of music that's entrenched in his mind as being part of his home and identity by people he detests during a moment he's at his lowest being a personal slight on his honour. He couldn't hide it anymore when Candy insisted on shaking his hand.
Also a cool detail is that Beethoven was considered the first "free" artist, meaning that he could compose whatever he wanted because he didn't rely on the money of a nobleman sponsor. The detail that it's his music the one the slave owners were playing must have been even more infuriating for Schultz.
Schultz is so interesting in another way. This is in 1958, 10 years after the German revolution that saw a lot of Germans exiled. Mainly middle class and liberals and worker radicals. Schultz is clearly the former with how much he hates slavery. A bunch of idealists that got exiled for his opposition to a autocratic order and end up in a even worse play.
Another small detail that would set him off was how the sister was playing the tune. See, Für Elise is supposed to be played in a slower and calmer tune, but Mrs. Candie was almost playing it without any stops to it
I love that first scene. “Speak English, god dammit.” Is so ironically funny. Schultz is German, and yet his English is far better than any of the slavers and racists in this film. I loved every minute of his interactions.
Even Middle Class Germans were learning English at the time.
And what was taught, was what I guess you could say is/was “proper enunciation”. Nice little detail.
"I like the way you die boy" will go down as one of my favorite lines in cinema.
“Alexandre Dumas is black” is one of my favorite all time lines.
*Historical note* Alexandre Dumas’ father, born to an enslaved woman in what is now Haiti, rose to become a highly decorated cavalry general in Napoleon’s army.
When Django shoots ms Lara and she goes flying, that's a reference to old western movies where when women got killed they were quickly yanked out of the frame. That's because people thought it would be "inappropriate" if women dying was shown on screen.
Yes, Schultz did shoot the sheriff. But you'll note he did not shoot the deputy.
>.>
The part when Leonardo DiCaprio slammed his hand on the glass. That's what really happen while preforming. Even after being stabbed in the hand. He keep in character and kept preforming.
A true actor. That's pretty insane when you think about it.
@@sidneyjacques. And the blood he rubs on her face and her reaction was real. None of that blood shit was in the script. It actually really fucked with her.
I just love that Schultz is so German that all he needs is to hear that a woman's name is Brunhilda and her husband wants to rescue her and he's immediately like, "Welp, I'm now contractually obligated to help!"
Edit: Fucking hell, I had forgotten how hard the Mandingo fight is to watch. Even the short clips here are gross.
"Now wait a minute, fellas." LOL I love that line so much
He knew he was done for in that moment. 😂😂
One of the things this movie does is rip the covers off how horrific slavery was. It was a disgusting, inhumane, horrific institution and Southerners were so desperate to keep it that they launched a war of treason to murder as many Americans as possible to keep slavery.
This movie was the best theater experience I've ever had. People were losing it at the bag mask part.
"NOBODY BROUGHT AN EXTRA BAG" 😂😂😂 I loved that.
"ALL I HEAR IS CRITCIZE, CRITICIZE, CRITICIZE"
@@sidneyjacques.
I'm just askin'!
When the Untouchable remix came in my theater went CRAZY, so fun.
I wasn't at the movie theater. However, when I saw that part, I was dying laughing & that is my favorite part of the movie. I was done! 😂😂😂 man, I was like, wait, why is this so funny bc that was the kkk & they were complaining! Omggggg!!😂😂😂
I actually like that you call out actors that you recognize, I definitely think it's a skill but keep doing you.
I guess I think it could be a bit annoying, but it's really not bad to do.
@@sidneyjacques. Nah it's chill, don't imagine too many find it annoying, shows you're a movie-enjoyer at the least
I'm really glad you said this because I do it too and I like when other people do as well. It is definitely a skill and it is fun to see where people know various actors from
12,000.00 back then, comes out to about 400,000.00 today
that's insane. 🤯
Damn! I was close! I thought of 500k! 😮
Dr. Schultz is the exact opposite of a slave owner. Django rides, he taught him to read and maybe maybe write and helped make him a master marksman. The most important thing, however, is
that he treats him as an equal human being and tries to apologize for the cruel scars and the unspeakably racist behavior. Dr. Schultz uses the words that slave owners would never use towards slaves.
Please, thank you and more, the handover of the shotgun because he has no doubts about the honesty of the,
then, fortunately, former, slaves. The blowing up of the ridiculous but evil KKK representatives, the shooting of the leader by a former slave, now a master marksman. Keeping slaves, where people turn people into slaves, violates everything that actually distinguishes it from barbarism.
The slaves have the status of a microbe for their "owners", and this is how they treat them.
Keep dropping actors names and stats, I do the same thing daily and drive everyone crazy, but I love that I ain’t the only one!
I still do it. I guess I thought was being too annoying. 😂
"Sorry, I couldn't resist :) " is so good!
Christoph Waltz won a well-deserved Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for this film, though honestly both Leo DiCaprio and Samuel L Jackson deserved one as well. Everyone acted their asses off in this movie, second favorite Tarantino film for me after the Kill Bills
He killed it. only thing I knew him from was inglorious basterds and he killed that too. Bro can act.
That blood during the scene where Sam L Jackson rats on Django and Schultz was improvised. Di Caprio hit his hand on that table and cut himself accidentally with that glass that broke and just rolled with it.
So when Leo's hand was bleeding he actually cut it on a piece of broken something . He then used his actual bleeding hand for the rest of that scene and put it all of Kerry Washington face. Probably freaked her TF out
Fun fact on Leo. He was initially uncomfortable with saying his lines. Because of the obvious. Sam & Jamie stepped in & basically told him to get over it. He's playing a character it's not him.
I try to remember that actors go through a lot behind the scenes that we don't see, but for them to encourage him to get over that and "act" is great because he did a good job as Calvin.
but what about wiping his real blood on her face impromtu like that, thats going too far the other way??
@@natmanprime4295 he did cut his hand when he slammed it on the table, but the blood he smears on Brunhilda was fake, after the injury shot finished they took proper care of the wound and just kept the bleeding on the following scenes for continuity
@@arcojin-carlosh.9435 oh ok
@@natmanprime4295 That wasn't his blood. He did cut his hand accidently in the scene and roll with it, but they cut and bandaged him up and replaced the blood with fake blood after. Kerry Washington and Leo DiCaprio are both obviously professional actors, they aren't just going to rub real blood around willy nilly.
DiCaprio actually cut his hand when he slammed it on the table and broke the glass cup, that's actual blood that he wiped on Kerry Washington's face, that wasn't in the script. That scene has barely any acting in it, because it was genuinely real, DiCaprio's rage, Kerry's reaction, fucking masterpiece!
my mum couldn't take me to see this movie when it came out (rip being a child) but she IMMEDIATELY got it for us on DVD and it was one of the most powerful movie experiences i'd ever had - love this movie more then anyone could know and im SO glad you like it!
I have a horse named Django. He's a mustang from the Western USA.
I heard the scene at the dinner table where DiCaprio cut his hand was real. The glass broke when he slammed it down and cut his hand wide open.. dude is so diesel though, he used the pain to be that much more emotional and finished the scene. Great job covering this movie. 👍😎💯🔥
Yea he's a real one for keeping it going. true actor. Thanks for watching!
Here’s another thing about this movie. As I understand it, Django & Hildi are supposed to be the great-great-great grandparents of John Shaft.
Calvin Candy would make a great car salesman. 😂
couple fun facts about this movie
when django tells the guy earlier in the movie the D is silent and the guy says "i know" that's the original person who played django decades ago
When DiCaprio cuts his hand, he actually accidentally cut his hand, but they decided to keep rolling and left it in
the ending song is from a spaghetti western called "they call me trinity" they used the song as an homage to the film
He also wrote his first script...'True Romance'////which he sold to pay for 'Reservoir Dogs'. TRUE rOMANCE HAS GOT A TON OF FAMOUS ACTORS IN IT ALSO. aNd all of the typical Tarantino trademarks we've come to know & love.
Will Smith turned this film down because he didn't want to play the role of a slave, but then he went on to act in Emancipation
Personally, this is his best written movie for me. 🤯
It was so good. It's up there for sure.
Thanks so much for your reaction, man. The lighting is awesome
Thank you! I appreciate that 🙏🏿
This is late, but your Actor recognition callouts are interesting and add to your unique perspective to know where you may recognise actors from.
Man I really appreciate how you actually take the time to drop some commentary while you're watching. A lot of the commentary I see on this movie is skin deep (pun intended). But taking the time to notice shot composition, call out actors you recognize, speculate on what you think comes next, and the like is what is supposed to make reactions transformative content. I personally feel you do that very well and I'm definitely gonna check out more of your stuff to see if you're like this elsewhere.
Thank you! I try to do the best I can with commentary and analyzing the movie, so this means a lot. 🙏🏿
GREAT reaction!
Thank you! I really enjoyed this one.
Great review
Fun fact: Luke Duke from the Dukes of Hazzard was the Marshall in the town with the saloon😉
@17:51, the older dude at the bar is the original actor that played Django from the 1960s film. Thats how he knows the D is silent.
Yep, I've loved this film since it came out. But that was the best fun re- watching with you guys!! Good analysis also! I've never really heard anybody talk about the transitions on the cards with medieval music to the rock. Cick push-ups is f'ing hilarious still!! Thank you for the 80's video game outro also 😁😎😎
The Hateful Eight is another good movie from Quentin Tarantino which has Samuel L. Jackson in it as well. Check it out!
I watched that right before I started doing reactions. I wish I had waited on that one. It was great.
good luck with the channel man, this was a great time watching with you 👍🏼
SLJ's Stephen had the role of the head slave, which means he was in a position of extreme power on the plantation. It actually gave him more power than many of the whites who worked on the plantation and means that he had spent his entire life in close contact with the Candy family. It has already been proven that children raised by house servants generally consider them family, even if they are of an ethnic group that they would otherwise be racist against. So SLJ's character has both great power and is "family" with the owners, while having spent his entire life controlling (often brutally) the other slaves.
Additionally Stephen is acting far weaker and nicer than he actually is. He walks hunched and with a cane even though he does not need to so he appears weaker and less threatening. His comment about a rock in his shoe was actually most likely true, since a common way to fake a limp was to put a rock in your shoe. Notice that every time he is away from whites (except in private with Calvin) he is friendly and extra crippled, but with just blacks or Calvin in private he is strong and cold. Stephen is the truly evil villain in the movie.
great reaction!
hell, yeah; blue wearing black shakspeare: the fastest gun in the south.
36:05 that over-the-top pull into the other room is a nod from Quentin to old kung fu movies, where there's always a lot of blood and people are flying through the air after being kicked, stuff like that. He is a fan of those movies. You can see it in Kill Bill as well.
My dude you are legit hilarious!
Thanks! I don't think so but it's not up to me I guess. 😂😂
the ending of this is so cathartic ✊🏽
Justice being served at its finest. 🙏🏿
Seriously though, even if you aren't a reader, read some Alexandre Dumas. That's some brilliant stuff. The Count of Monte Cristo is one of the greatest books I've ever read. That man lived a hell of a life and a hell of a lot of genius came out of his massive swath of experiences.
Thx for the recommendation! I'm currently reading American Prometheus, but I'll keep this in mind. thank you for watching!
@@sidneyjacques. That's a really good one too.
Me and my brother watched this together, loved every second! Thanks for posting~
I love to hear that! Thank you both for watching!! 🙏🏿
That horse was POPPING and LOCKING
9:19 They had actual drip .And their clothes were fit to the weather .
The gunfight at the end of this movie is both extremely satisfying and epic
great reaction sidney!
Thanks as always!! I enjoyed this one for sure.
Damn im glad this popped up in my reccomended, subbed fer sure
Thanks! I appreciate it!🙏🏿
That mustachio'd man who asks Django for his name was Django from the original.
12000 dollars in 1858 would be 448,896.59 today
No wonder they wanted that money 😂
Good movie review am definitely subscribing
Thank you! It means a lot! 🙏🏿
DiCaprio actually really cut his hand in that scene and that was his real blood he smeared on her face. Apparently, they just kept going and ended up using it for the movie lol.
the guy who played the black clad marshal after the sheriff was shot. was the guy who played luke duke in the original dukes of hazzard
Subbed can't wait to see your movie journey
Thank you! 🙏🏾
Never seen a fun movie about slavery until this one. The hero wins, all the bad guys explode into bloody FX. No disrespect to 12 Years a Slave and all the historical works, but not everybody is trying to walk out of the theaters depressed. Django is in my top 3 Terrantino movies of all time
Loved this movie too. Classic Tarantino with everyone almost dying in the end. Thanks for watching!!
DuhJango 🔥
the only way 🔥🔥
One important thing is southern slave owners were obsessed with appearing as european as posible, the architecture of of Candyland or Thomas Jeffersons house... but ironically Europeans were horrified by such plantations
Tarantino is so good
If you’re interested, $12,000 in 1858 is worth a little less than half a million dollars in February 2024.
🤯 that's wild.
I just noticed that when those people came out after Django whooped that one guy that the kids were mixed
For anyone wondering, $12,000 in 1858 would be worth $448,896 in 2024. Truly a ridiculous amount of money.
The og django is in the movie, such a good movie legit next level
New subscriber here. Very well done and yes squirrel is great with some mashed potatoes and vegetables.
Thank you! 🙏🏿 Most people don't know about squirrel. Rabbit too. 😂
The fact that Walton Goggins didnt have a bigger role in this movie is a damn shame.
This movie is a masterpiece.
I really enjoyed it!
I love how the entire time Django and Shultz were at candy land, Django looked like he was gonna blow up, but then Shultz did first instead. I don't think anyone saw that coming, even with his obvious rage given that it was assumed that they were seemingly stripped of all their weapons.
Didn’t see the original Django movie till way after this one . Both versions are great but definitely like this Django more
15:04 just wanted to say…Jim Croce is not appreciated enough in this day and age.
I was jamming out to it. 😂😂
the old guy who sold django was the confederate general in the hateful 8.
we got half of miami vice and dukes of hazard in this movie.
Did you know! That beer stick that Dr Schultz uses to make the beer even on top of the glasses and the sharps rifle they use throughout the movie have not been invented In 1858, it is one of the two only things that are historical inaccurate about the movie!
Phenomenal movie though!
36:34 this is probably the coldest line I’ve ever heard
when leo broke that glass and cut his hand that was real in the moment and they just left it in. he just acted hard through an actual injury with broken glass
out for the season is nasty work lmfao nice reaction
$12,000 in that time is about half a million dollars today.
I wanna see more Western movies with the dame violence as Django
that guy that jamie is talking to @17:45 is actually Franco Nero, the dude that originally played Django in the 60's
12k would be more than 400k in today’s money.
17:43-17:50
That's the original Django. Guy was just as much of a badass.
Spoiler
He constantly carried a casket with him only to reveal a mini gun and blew away an entire gang of crooks.
"Black people say 'who?'"
Haven't heard that one yet.
One of my favorite movies
It's so good! Thanks for watching! 🙏🏿
A black man on a horse was not unusual, in actual history, especially in Texas. Black cowboys were definitely a thing.
The Harder They Fall ( 2021 ) is a good watch about that too.
thank you, the voice of reason. thats why they were called cowBOYS i guess?
@@natmanprime4295 no cuz most cowboys were young cuz most cowboys didn't grow old and obviously they worked cattle but thats just my thought
AFTER slavery tho.
@@nigelralphmurphy2852 Before, during, and after. Not all black people were slaves, during slavery.
#sidneyjacques 7:36 yes thats the blind guy from "once upon a time in Hollywood" ... good call.
I knew his voice sounded familiar.
lobe and blessings!
I watched this as the only White guy in a theater full of Black folks. It was wild, I've never seen an audience more animated against the real villain, who in this movie is of course Stephen, not Candy.
Leo actually cut his hand in that scene but kept in character. Thats the take they used.
Dedicated to the work. He killed his role 💪🏿
Muy bueno excelente pelicula te mando un abrazo desde Argentina.
Thank you!! 🙏🏾
Fun fact: when he slammed his fist on the table .....
