The Quentin Tarantino Robert Rodriguez film Grindhouse was 3 hours long, and included two movies, which were Planet Terror and Death Proof. Get it straight.
I so dearly love that the hero fails in the third act, looks to be sent off to a miserable ending, only to literally blow up the director and pull out a good ending in a surprise act 4.
@@quatschk0pfr.w.676 Mate, directors *have* to put thought into so many things, and given how nerdy Tarantino is about cinema, it wouldn't be surprising. And even then, art isn't so much about what creators put into it, it's what people get out of it. That's why people create stuff, and the OP has found a really interesting reading of a piece of cinematic art. Try to be more fun at your next party.
I really love the fact that it is teased throughout the entire movie that Django is going to lose his temper and start shooting people, but Schultz is ultimately the one who loses his cool. It rejects the stereotypical narrative with Django staying rational and Schultz being the one to snap due to his emotions.
@@nickdouglas736 I doubt he thought out the fact that Django would have to fight through an entire army of people. He literally said “I couldn’t resist.” Look, I’m not holding it against him. The only reason he reacted that way was because of his morals and his objection to disgusting behavior which says a lot about him.
Schultz was more emotional terrorized by the basic ideology of racism way more than the man who experienced it as not only a slave but free man. You can tell Schultz wanted to stop all of it. But Django knew they could only save 1. At least that was the goal
The woman flying out of the doorway is a reference to how I’m original westerns it was seen as wrong to have a woman due on screen, so film makers would yank the woman away before they died
Heh. My friend Chris plays Angry Willard in that scene. Hilarious. He plays a different character later who gets shot up in the big shootout. He's the one they mentioned gets shot over and over in the legs.
@@Justin.Franks “I thenk... that we all thenk...” that was the implied understanding... since this is fiction, their appearance and resemblance to the actual goons is an apocryphal reference
King was surprised when Django told him Hildie's name because 1. A slave that speaks german is exceptional 2. She not only had a german name but a german aristocracy name
The friendly participation by Franco Nero is the Italian mandingo owner when you're introduced to Calvin. He's the star of the original movie, "Django", which is why he knows the D is silent. Also those collars are to prevent slaves from sleeping or resting flat, to deprive them of any comfort. Loved the reaction!
This is tied with Kill Bill and Inglorious Basterds as my favorite Tarantino ever. I really wish that Django’s true Bounty Hunter outfit was available for Red Dead Redemption.
@@DavidBennet I honestly think Dicaprio should've been nominated. He played such a horrible villain that was so unlike any characters hes done before yet you couldn't take your eyes off him from the screen. Christoph Waltz hands down deserved that Oscar for Inglorious Basterds but I think Leo stole the show in this movie.
@@DavidBennet Yeah but he did win a globe that year, and he did deserve his first Oscar for that dinner scene alone but it was a very competitive year that year!
one thing I really respect about this film is that all of the horrible things done to slaves in the movie are historically accurate: mandingo fights, dog attacks, muzzle and head contraptions, hot boxes, whipping, etc...
@@swaggy6122 All over Africa. Especially Northern Africa like Libya after Gaddafi. Parts of India, they have the worlds highest slave counts today, other parts of Asia. China, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and others.
"Can't believe they would treat people like this!" There are places where people are treated this way today. There is no bottom to the barrel of depravity humanity sips from.
Lmao been that long since i watched Django i forgot about it being called Candyland so Ricks bemused "What the fuck?!" was priceless. Great film, great reaction.
A bit of grim info, but the metal masks were for runaways or other enslaved ppl being punished, used to keep them from talking & eating. As for the collar, it prevented enslaved ppl from escaping thru the forest, as the side barbs would catch on the heavy greenery, violently jolting their neck. The muzzle & collar also meant to say "Hey! This one's a troublemaker!"
Something that's always been interesting about Schultz is how subtle his character actually progressed throughout the movie. He was already a good guy yes but at the start of the film you had a sense of how pragmatic he was and how much he kept a cool head. The more he gets involved with Django and deeper into Candyland and its horrors the more you can see it visibly start to affect him deeply, which is ironic because Django becomes the more level headed and calm of the two when in the beginning it's the other way around (Django adopts and implements a lot of Schultz's teachings as well; speech, importance of bounties, flair for the dramatic, etc). This culminates when Schultz has flashbacks of D'artagnan getting violently murdered and deciding that enough is enough (having that poetic moment of telling off Candie that Dumas was black was already a great 'fuck you' moment). The three could've left Candyland with no incident right then and there, but at that point Schultz couldn't care less with what happens to him and gains the one thing that mirrors Django's moment with the Brittle Brothers; Retribution. What a fantastic, nuanced character!
The skull thing Candy was spewing is known as phrenology. Like Rick said, it was used as propaganda to scientifically justify slavery as opposed to religion, even it was already considered pseudoscience back then.
Yeah true. Also unfortunately that sort of mentality still exists and takes the form of "race realism" which is used by racist organizations and people who use psuedo science to justify their claims against other ethnicities. Iv literally argued with people online who make those terrible arguments
I only thought of this recently but I enjoy how the phrenology discussion plays into some of the themes and foreshadowing, Calvin asks why the slaves don't kill them which is a good question, but he has the wrong answer, he thinks submission is an inherent trait in Django and every other slave, and Django proves him wrong. The slaves are afraid of the people who abuse them, that's the real reason, and like King says when he tells the story to Django, Brunhilda would stay in that tower forever unless a hero brave enough to save her arose, and Django is that hero because just like Sigfried, he isn't afraid of the monsters holding her. He's that one in ten thousand. He walks through hellfire, ducking bullets and almost being mutilated to save his wife, because she's worth it.
“Why water first I wonder” to answer that Rick, As dark as it may seem but I believe that’s because they wanted to wake her up to feel the pain. throwing water on her AFTER they branded her would make the pain easier and that’s not what they wanted, they wanted her to feel it, it’s terrible
And also, so the skin and flesh of her face would "burn better". If they did it dry, her skin would have kind of "melted" and burnt away nearly instantly (also, it would have stuck to the iron and been ripped away as soon as they removed it), without the brand being readable at all. Only a horrible burnt mess without shape. But if the skin is wet, the flesh would have pretty much "boiled" instantly, leaving a clear distinct brand in it. It's somehow even more disgusting, knowing that.
Franco Nero was the original Django, and the theme song is from the original film. It's an amazing Spaghetti Western and a huge influence on Tarantino.
Would've liked the whole crew but still a good reaction by Aaron and Rick. It's definitely a classic Tarantino movie. The scene at 11:15 never fails to make me laugh. Y'all should watch Inglorious Bastards by Tarantino at some point, my personal favorite after Pulp Fiction. Christoph Waltz is also phenomenal in that one.
Apparently Schultz might have gotten into bounty hunting after his brother was killed and he hunted down the killer. At least according to "his" song. Of course "His name was King" is an old spaghetti western theme song to a movie where that is the plot, just like the Django song from the original "Django" movie, so it might just be a purely name based choice and the backstory doesn't matter. Seems pretty deliberate to name your western bounty hunter character after another western bounty hunter and then using his theme song though.
I was just getting ready to say this! Inglorious Basterds is one of my all time favorite Tarantino films, and Christoph Waltz was absolutely incredible with his acting in that movie. That first scene tho... damn i still get chills!
If you guys haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend watching Inglourious Basterds if you wanna see the movie that made Christoph Waltz a tour de force and household name. The fact that he plays a villain too is such a great contrast. Watching this before seeing him in as a villain and vice versa is so weird but awesome because he's so good. Both Oscars and crap ton of awards deserved!
Eric. Oh sweet Eric. When you said that Schultz was gonna “Quigley”’ the last Brittle brother, my heart melted a lil bit. Quigley Down Under is one of my favorite movies of all time. Right on, bro. 👍🏾
Something neat to point out, during the entire movie Dr. Schultz always puts papers in his front coat pocket, in his last scene though, he puts Hildi's papers in his back pants pocket cause he had decided to kill Candy and didnt want her papers damaged when he was killed after.
Pretty sure that's not the case at all. He's putting them in his back pocket when he's saying, "To you, I say goodbye." To Calvin. He very much could've and tried to leave immediately after that, and he was stopped by Candy, which led him to kill him.
You guys where almost 100% there. The second time I watched the film, I noticed DJango literally steps on fire to get to Broomhylda after the house explodes. Because she's worth it. Sam Jackson and DiCaprio were a two headed dragon watching Broomhylda. The first scene you see DiCaprio he turns around and is blowing smoke out of his nose... Like a dragon. The mountain in every German story, in this case is the mountain of slavery they had to climb. And the last things I didn't pick up on was King was a dentist by trade... Who went into Candie Land.
i think this might be controversial but this is my favorite Tarantino film. Love Jamie fox and Christoph Waltz as actors and this (and inglorious bastards) are great uses of his over thw top violence to make fun of some of histories monsters. it's a feel good movie for me lol
The scene where Leo cuts his hand is all real. That wasn’t intended but Leo kept going like it was nothing, so all the blood you see on his hand is really his. Talk about dedication.
@@kennycooper294 The blood he wipes on Kerry isn't real, the scene of him smashing his hand on the table and him bleeding is real and they decided to keep it because he carried on and gave a great performance, the face smearing was only shot after he'd been bandaged up.
Lol, good lord the amount of people who think Leo smeared his ACTUAL blood on her face is so ridiculous😅 He really did cut his hand, and his blood is real on his hand in the other shots, but to believe he would smear his actual blood all over an actresses face is so stupid. The lawsuits that would happen alone lol
@@AlexDelarge1990 yeah, I never knew for sure since it’s a fucking Tarantino film.👀 ya never know.🤷♂️ for sure though I don’t imagine any actor letting real blood be smeared on their face.
Sometimes I think it's impossible that 75% of the entire worldwide population have never seen this masterpiece of a movie. Guys, you've got some catching up to do like seriously. Oh, and please include Superbad for the next movie polls please. I think it might win.
Also that they haven't seen "Inglorious Bastards"! And that their minds are blown by the 'Tarantino-esque-' violent shots, but not the brutality of daily life as a slave circa-1860s + waaaay-beyond-the-Civil-War.
@Rheya Ruiz Maybe they were exclaiming that about the two actors they like the most. Obviously everyone in the movie was incredible, and portrayed their roles amazingly, especially Jaime and Samuel. I think they pointed out Leo/Christoph because it was two actors that they found - in their opinion mind you - to have the best acting; I doubt race was even a consideration in Dog Pooo's mind and he was thinking as everyone as equals and did not classify them as white and black. I don't think it's a problem to find one actor better over another, and just because someone does it does not mean they do it because of race. If anything you make it about race by making that comment. It's like if I said that Jeff Goldblum was amazing in Jurassic Park, does that mean I am being racist because I did not say Samuel Jackson was amazing in it too? Hell, does that mean I am being sexist too because I did not include any female actors? Am I being unfair to all the other actors I did not name either? That seems like a stretch. Maybe they think Leo and Christoph did a good performance, and it just so happens that both of them happen to be white and it's just that - a coincidence - both actors they named happen to have the characteristic of being white. It doesn't say anything about the acting abilities of Jaime or Samuel, nor does it seem like an intentional exclusion of actors because of race. I think Leo was phenomenal and I think Jamie, Waltz, and Samuel all had amazing performances. They're all actors, and they're all equal people with different characteristics, etc. We shouldn't view people as race, and view criticisms, opinions, etc. of actors as racist either. Your own opinion on people's acting is subjective, and you are capable of judging people based on their acting abilities. If someone cannot criticize someone's acting because of race they are (which has nothing to do with their personality, acting abilities, etc.) then that, in itself, is racist.
If I manage to forget everything else of this movie, I hope I remember Schultz and Leo. I adore that Schultz stays consistent beginning to end for how he reacts to what happens around him, so much so that you get the incredible scene where he knowingly sentences himself to death out of pure spite for DiCaprio's character. "I couldn't resist" is probably the best set of last words one can speak before being ripped apart by a shotgun blast in retaliation to the murder you just committed
I gotta say as a long time fan, I did not expect this duo maybe I haven't seen any with these two or I'm just stupid lol. BUT THIS IS FANTASTIC RICK AND AARON!!!! (I feel like the whole crew would've loved it but I'm happy to be getting this!)
The name of the movie came from a italian movie called Django, that generated many unofficial sequels or just generic western movies with the name Django, so Quentin did his own version. The theme song came from that movie, the "His Name was King" also came from a movie with the same name and the final song came from a italian western comedy called "They Call him Trinity".
The friendly partecipation is of Franco Nero. You can see him in the mandingo fight scene, he's the guy betting against Di Caprio. Franco Nero is a famous actor from my country, Italy, that was very prominent in spaghetti western and italian crime movies in the 70s. One of his famous spaghetti western movies was "Django", that also had a sequel, "Django II", in which he interpreted the main titular character. Django's name is an homage to that movie. Tarantino is notoriously a fan of old low budget movies, not only from US, but also from Italy, Japan and Hong Kong, and he takes a lot of inspiration from them.
Django Unchained is easily my favorite movie, and I'm a big fan of tarantino. I also love a western movie, one of my favorite genres, the desire to run and play red dead redemption 2. I was very happy to see the blindwave reacting to this great film, congratulations!
YES! One of the Greatest movies watched by the GREATEST reactors. Rick and Aaron, you guys are my favorites of the group. Calvin is a keeper too. What legends the lot of you
YOU WANTS ME TREAT HIM LIKE WHITE FOLK? NO, THATS NOT WHAT I SAID. LOVE DON JOHNSON IN THIS ONE. ( RICKS "WHAT THE FUCK?" AFTER HEARING CANDY LAND WAS BRILLIANT FANN FUCKING TASTICK. )
Fun fact: The song that plays during the end, when he explodes de mansion, is the theme song of My name is Trinity (1970) by Bud Spenser and Terence Hill.
Probably don't need to point out that Hilde's fainting is a COMBINATION of dehydration & shock at seeing her husband for the first time in a long time, not knowing if he was dead or alive.
Never understood why they just didn’t go to Candie and say “I speak German, I heard you have a slave that speaks German, I’d like to buy her so I can have someone to speak German with”.
Because then Candie can name whatever price he wants and they'd lose a lot of money; but if they lie about the Mandingo stuff and ask to buy Broomhilda, Candie would offer them a better deal. It almost works but, you know the rest.
They literally explain it in the end of the movie. Candie wouldnt have felt enticed at all by that offer and he would've been the one in control of the deal.
I love love love this movie! Just subscribed!I watch it at least once a year. With Tarantino movies you can always see something new each time. BTW the Marshal in the first town was none other than Tom Wopat aka Luke Duke from the original tv show The Dukes Of Hazard.
I heard somewhere that when Django shoots the sister and she goes flying off screen is supposed to be a nod to a filming technique in old westerners that did the same thing cause back then showing a woman being shot and dying onscreen was a big no-no.
It's funny that you mention George Romero with zombie movies having bodies torn apart and stuff... A GREAT special effects artist named Tom Savini created all of those effects for George. You mentioned him earlier in the video without realizing it. He's Sex Machine, the guy with the gun on his crotch in From Dusk Til Dawn, and he was also in this movie. He's the best in the business. Fellow Pittsburgher. Met him a few times. Nice guy.
A friend of mine was the one that kept getting shot in the legs in the big shootout at the house. He said at one point Quentin looked at him lying on the ground drenched in fake blood and said, “We gotta figure out how to shoot Chris more!” He said he had a steel reinforced padding cos they used multiple live squibs (the largest in the industry) on his body. No stunt man. He said it took over two weeks to shoot that scene.
The way I understand is that Schultz knows Calvin Candy wouldn't travel the long way to Candyland for Broomhilda. But they have to get to Candyland with Calvin so they can get a bill of sale from him with his signature. So they pretend to be interested in a fighter and make a high offer to Calvin so that he actually goes to Candyland with them. Of course they wouldn't really buy a mandingo, Schultz says that he has to reach out to his guy first and they can do the paper work and they'll be back in a couple of days, which is just a straight up lie. If things went as they planned they would've bought Broomhilda and just left with her while Calvin thinks they're gonna come back with the documents for the mandingo
Guys, Doctor Schultz's ridiculous cart and the fact that he's actually a dentist is the reason he's one of the best bounty hunters in America, because nobody would expect such a ridiculously looking guy is actually a bounty hunter.
I love how Rick is sees the first Brittle Brother and doesn't realize he's just seen him recently in a show he's watching because he hasn't gotten a clear view of him yet. I hope he recognizes him later.
If you are talking about Gainey.. Surprised he didn't seem to recognize Goggins' either who played son to Gainey on Justified and was also in Hateful 8.
It has probably been mentioned, but Leo actually cut his palm in the scene with the skull, and the blood was real. Hence the reaction on Kerry Washington’s face. Great scene.
Tarantino is class A director. Don't sleep on his less known stuff. From Dusk Till Dawn, Jackie Brown. There all good. My personal favorite of his is probably Inglorious Bastards. But there all good.

Isn’t he making a movie with Kevin spacey.
The collars were also used to impair the act of running away or hiding by catching on basically anything around, like bushes, for instance.
I'm pretty sure they were designed to make it harder to escape. The metal barbs would get stuck in bushes and tree limbs.
This is tied with Kill Bill and Inglorious Basterds as my favorite Tarantino ever. I really wish that Django’s true Bounty Hunter outfit was available for Red Dead Redemption.

Given that the film is very much Tarantino's love letter to Westerns, particularly Spaghetti Westerns, it wouldn't surprise me
"That's it, you're going to Candyland, Rick!"
Django and Broomhilda are the great grandparents of John Shaft private eye in the Shaft movies according to Quentin.
Actually came to the comments to see if this was mentioned
That's amazing!
I just hope they spelled her name right in later generations. haha
If you guys haven't seen Inglorious Bastards. Oh Boy! Your in for a real treat!
I was just getting ready to say this! Inglorious Basterds is one of my all time favorite Tarantino films, and Christoph Waltz was absolutely incredible with his acting in that movie. That first scene tho... damn i still get chills!
The first scene itself should have won best picture
Thats a bingoooo!
@@paragjyotisaikia9751 I just recently watched that again, it was amazing and chilling and... sad
Leonardo DiCaprio actually did break his hand when he slapped the table and kept going on. Tarantino was so impressed that he kept it in the movie
He didn’t break it but he did cut it on glass tho
@@sharrieffmuhammad9227 Yeah, I remember the cameraman was freaking out but kept shooting the scene anyway. 😅😅😁
@DESEZE why are you just spamming hate replies to comments?
That’s really his blood he rubs on Kerry Washingtons face
@@0xLimas yeah I know right? Leo is crazy
You guys should really react to Inglourious Basterds. One of Tarantino's BEST.
If you guys haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend watching Inglourious Basterds if you wanna see the movie that made Christoph Waltz a tour de force and household name. The fact that he plays a villain too is such a great contrast. Watching this before seeing him in as a villain and vice versa is so weird but awesome because he's so good. Both Oscars and crap ton of awards deserved!
PHRENOLOGY is the name of what Dicaprio was talking about with the skull and it is complete BS.
cause of rick's shirt, RIP Kentarō Miura ❤❤
WE GOING TO CANDY LAND RICK
🗿🗿🗿🗿
The "mask" were for runaways. It's to make them as uncomfortable as possible. Some enslaved people had to live in that thing even when sleeping.
And, if I'm not mistaken a lot of times they used it on runaways so if they tried to run away again they'd get tangled in the trees and bushes
Now Blacks are financially uncomfortable
Samuel l Jacksons entrance as the conniving old man is a hoot. Stevens gets his desserts.
Grindhouse was the movie overall title, the two portions were Death Proof and Planet Terror.
Death Proof is such an underrated film. I remember having my nails clutching the theater arm partition so hard for like an hour straight.
Eric. Oh sweet Eric. When you said that Schultz was gonna “Quigley”’ the last Brittle brother, my heart melted a lil bit. Quigley Down Under is one of my favorite movies of all time. Right on, bro. 👍🏾
Loved in the opening when he said make your way to a more enlightened area of this country
Something neat to point out, during the entire movie Dr. Schultz always puts papers in his front coat pocket, in his last scene though, he puts Hildi's papers in his back pants pocket cause he had decided to kill Candy and didnt want her papers damaged when he was killed after.
Pretty sure that's not the case at all. He's putting them in his back pocket when he's saying, "To you, I say goodbye." To Calvin. He very much could've and tried to leave immediately after that, and he was stopped by Candy, which led him to kill him.
You guys where almost 100% there. The second time I watched the film, I noticed DJango literally steps on fire to get to Broomhylda after the house explodes. Because she's worth it. Sam Jackson and DiCaprio were a two headed dragon watching Broomhylda. The first scene you see DiCaprio he turns around and is blowing smoke out of his nose... Like a dragon. The mountain in every German story, in this case is the mountain of slavery they had to climb. And the last things I didn't pick up on was King was a dentist by trade... Who went into Candie Land.
Watching this made me want to play read dead redemption 2 again. Finding different ways to kill kkk in that game is always satisfying.
But weren't they just killing themselves in comical ways?
@@Nightley4 yeah, but you can still kill them like any other npcs before they get to that part.
Eliminating the crazy feminist is always pretty fun as well ^^
@@arsenelupin9697 yeah because the woman advocating for women’s voting rights in 1890 is a crazy feminist who should be killed/s (…yikes)
@@Max25670 he's just pissed that The KKK is getting bullied lol
Cool Fact: In Kill Bill Vol. 2, the grave the bride was buried alive in was Dr. King Schultz's wife, Paula Schultz.
i think this might be controversial but this is my favorite Tarantino film. Love Jamie fox and Christoph Waltz as actors and this (and inglorious bastards) are great uses of his over thw top violence to make fun of some of histories monsters. it's a feel good movie for me lol
Same.
It's not controversial at all. Django is a fan favorite.
@@papl20 Titally but people usually go with Pulp Fiction.
@@OlPalJoe shit you right. Controversial is that Kill Bill vol 1 is my fave from Tarantino, it has the same feel good factor for me 😅
This and Inglorious are my favourite as well.
The scene where Leo cuts his hand is all real. That wasn’t intended but Leo kept going like it was nothing, so all the blood you see on his hand is really his. Talk about dedication.
They literally talk about it in the video
yes and props to kerry
@@kennycooper294 The blood he wipes on Kerry isn't real, the scene of him smashing his hand on the table and him bleeding is real and they decided to keep it because he carried on and gave a great performance, the face smearing was only shot after he'd been bandaged up.
Lol, good lord the amount of people who think Leo smeared his ACTUAL blood on her face is so ridiculous😅 He really did cut his hand, and his blood is real on his hand in the other shots, but to believe he would smear his actual blood all over an actresses face is so stupid. The lawsuits that would happen alone lol
@@AlexDelarge1990 yeah, I never knew for sure since it’s a fucking Tarantino film.👀 ya never know.🤷♂️ for sure though I don’t imagine any actor letting real blood be smeared on their face.
The Candy Land reveal was the most genuine reaction I've ever seen from Rick 14:22
14:35
"Why water first, I wonder."
I think just to wake her up. Brutal.
Sometimes I think it's impossible that 75% of the entire worldwide population have never seen this masterpiece of a movie. Guys, you've got some catching up to do like seriously. Oh, and please include Superbad for the next movie polls please. I think it might win.
Also that they haven't seen "Inglorious Bastards"! And that their minds are blown by the 'Tarantino-esque-' violent shots, but not the brutality of daily life as a slave circa-1860s + waaaay-beyond-the-Civil-War.
One of my all time faves. Leo and Chrstoph Waltz are incredible.
@Rheya Ruiz Maybe they were exclaiming that about the two actors they like the most. Obviously everyone in the movie was incredible, and portrayed their roles amazingly, especially Jaime and Samuel. I think they pointed out Leo/Christoph because it was two actors that they found - in their opinion mind you - to have the best acting; I doubt race was even a consideration in Dog Pooo's mind and he was thinking as everyone as equals and did not classify them as white and black. I don't think it's a problem to find one actor better over another, and just because someone does it does not mean they do it because of race. If anything you make it about race by making that comment. It's like if I said that Jeff Goldblum was amazing in Jurassic Park, does that mean I am being racist because I did not say Samuel Jackson was amazing in it too? Hell, does that mean I am being sexist too because I did not include any female actors? Am I being unfair to all the other actors I did not name either? That seems like a stretch. Maybe they think Leo and Christoph did a good performance, and it just so happens that both of them happen to be white and it's just that - a coincidence - both actors they named happen to have the characteristic of being white. It doesn't say anything about the acting abilities of Jaime or Samuel, nor does it seem like an intentional exclusion of actors because of race. I think Leo was phenomenal and I think Jamie, Waltz, and Samuel all had amazing performances. They're all actors, and they're all equal people with different characteristics, etc. We shouldn't view people as race, and view criticisms, opinions, etc. of actors as racist either. Your own opinion on people's acting is subjective, and you are capable of judging people based on their acting abilities. If someone cannot criticize someone's acting because of race they are (which has nothing to do with their personality, acting abilities, etc.) then that, in itself, is racist.
If I manage to forget everything else of this movie, I hope I remember Schultz and Leo. I adore that Schultz stays consistent beginning to end for how he reacts to what happens around him, so much so that you get the incredible scene where he knowingly sentences himself to death out of pure spite for DiCaprio's character. "I couldn't resist" is probably the best set of last words one can speak before being ripped apart by a shotgun blast in retaliation to the murder you just committed
The acting and dialogue in this film is some of the best in Hollywood history. Such an incredible film.
I literally just watched this for the first time!!!! So glad y’all reacted to it.
I gotta say as a long time fan, I did not expect this duo maybe I haven't seen any with these two or I'm just stupid lol. BUT THIS IS FANTASTIC RICK AND AARON!!!! (I feel like the whole crew would've loved it but I'm happy to be getting this!)
I love the part when he goes back to Dr. schulzs body and says Auf Wiedersehen
The name of the movie came from a italian movie called Django, that generated many unofficial sequels or just generic western movies with the name Django, so Quentin did his own version. The theme song came from that movie, the "His Name was King" also came from a movie with the same name and the final song came from a italian western comedy called "They Call him Trinity".
The friendly partecipation is of Franco Nero. You can see him in the mandingo fight scene, he's the guy betting against Di Caprio. Franco Nero is a famous actor from my country, Italy, that was very prominent in spaghetti western and italian crime movies in the 70s. One of his famous spaghetti western movies was "Django", that also had a sequel, "Django II", in which he interpreted the main titular character.
Django's name is an homage to that movie. Tarantino is notoriously a fan of old low budget movies, not only from US, but also from Italy, Japan and Hong Kong, and he takes a lot of inspiration from them.
If you havn't watched Inglourious Basterds you have to watch it!!
Django Unchained is easily my favorite movie, and I'm a big fan of tarantino. I also love a western movie, one of my favorite genres, the desire to run and play red dead redemption 2. I was very happy to see the blindwave reacting to this great film, congratulations!
i love that he used Ennio Morriconne for the score of this movie, giving it a legit western feel
"The D is silent."
"I know..."
Franco Nero, original Django, giving Jamie the approving nod was a great cameo.
YES! One of the Greatest movies watched by the GREATEST reactors. Rick and Aaron, you guys are my favorites of the group. Calvin is a keeper too. What legends the lot of you
Wow, way to toss eric under the bus.
YOU WANTS ME TREAT HIM LIKE WHITE FOLK?
NO, THATS NOT WHAT I SAID.
LOVE DON JOHNSON IN THIS ONE.
( RICKS "WHAT THE FUCK?" AFTER HEARING CANDY LAND WAS BRILLIANT
FANN FUCKING TASTICK. )
One of my favorite Tarantino films, i absolutely loved all the characters in this movie and the pacing was perfect.
Christoph waltz, 2 for 2 in Tarantino films/academy award winner 👏🏽👏🏽
I want an inglorious bastards reaction SO bad
29:40 “Bye Ms Laura..”
Wire Team: “GET OVER HERE!!”
Fun fact: The song that plays during the end, when he explodes de mansion, is the theme song of My name is Trinity (1970) by Bud Spenser and Terence Hill.
Probably don't need to point out that Hilde's fainting is a COMBINATION of dehydration & shock at seeing her husband for the first time in a long time, not knowing if he was dead or alive.
Inglorious Basterds is a must watch Tarantino movie.
Never understood why they just didn’t go to Candie and say “I speak German, I heard you have a slave that speaks German, I’d like to buy her so I can have someone to speak German with”.
Because then Candie can name whatever price he wants and they'd lose a lot of money; but if they lie about the Mandingo stuff and ask to buy Broomhilda, Candie would offer them a better deal. It almost works but, you know the rest.
because that's too petty of a trade for candie to be interested in spending his time on. he could just tell them to fuck off.
Because then there would be no movie 😂😂
They literally explain it in the end of the movie. Candie wouldnt have felt enticed at all by that offer and he would've been the one in control of the deal.
@@DanielFernandez-gv6iy Why do I hear "Pitch meeting" guy when I read that ! Haha... Whoops.
I love love love this movie! Just subscribed!I watch it at least once a year. With Tarantino movies you can always see something new each time. BTW the Marshal in the first town was none other than Tom Wopat aka Luke Duke from the original tv show The Dukes Of Hazard.
I heard somewhere that when Django shoots the sister and she goes flying off screen is supposed to be a nod to a filming technique in old westerners that did the same thing cause back then showing a woman being shot and dying onscreen was a big no-no.
It's funny that you mention George Romero with zombie movies having bodies torn apart and stuff... A GREAT special effects artist named Tom Savini created all of those effects for George. You mentioned him earlier in the video without realizing it. He's Sex Machine, the guy with the gun on his crotch in From Dusk Til Dawn, and he was also in this movie. He's the best in the business. Fellow Pittsburgher. Met him a few times. Nice guy.
Im glad you guys reacted to this.... This is my favorite tarantino movie
22:53 the way they both slammed the table at the same time is amazing, I just noticed
Great reactions! Dont know what I think about you two watching this before I-Bastards! Its such a great way to get to know Waltz
"The D is silent hillbilly." I'm weak, lmao. One of my top 15 favorite movies, 2nd favorite Tarantino one.
A friend of mine was the one that kept getting shot in the legs in the big shootout at the house. He said at one point Quentin looked at him lying on the ground drenched in fake blood and said, “We gotta figure out how to shoot Chris more!” He said he had a steel reinforced padding cos they used multiple live squibs (the largest in the industry) on his body. No stunt man. He said it took over two weeks to shoot that scene.
The way I understand is that Schultz knows Calvin Candy wouldn't travel the long way to Candyland for Broomhilda. But they have to get to Candyland with Calvin so they can get a bill of sale from him with his signature. So they pretend to be interested in a fighter and make a high offer to Calvin so that he actually goes to Candyland with them. Of course they wouldn't really buy a mandingo, Schultz says that he has to reach out to his guy first and they can do the paper work and they'll be back in a couple of days, which is just a straight up lie. If things went as they planned they would've bought Broomhilda and just left with her while Calvin thinks they're gonna come back with the documents for the mandingo
Guys, Doctor Schultz's ridiculous cart and the fact that he's actually a dentist is the reason he's one of the best bounty hunters in America, because nobody would expect such a ridiculously looking guy is actually a bounty hunter.
16:13 that is the same actor, James Remar playing a dual role. Playing As one of the Speck Brothers and as Butch Poole, Calvin Candie's muscle.
A nice intimate two man reaction, love it
This is to me the most unique movie you guys have react
Quentin Tarantino also plays a double role in this film period as Robert the baghead and the Australian of the LeQuint Dickey Mining Company.
4:46 editor saw this and thought to himself "ah yes the perfect thumbnail" 😂
One of the greatest movies of all time
Perfect thumbnail for the movie reaction O_o
I love how Rick is sees the first Brittle Brother and doesn't realize he's just seen him recently in a show he's watching because he hasn't gotten a clear view of him yet. I hope he recognizes him later.
If you are talking about Gainey.. Surprised he didn't seem to recognize Goggins' either who played son to Gainey on Justified and was also in Hateful 8.
It has probably been mentioned, but Leo actually cut his palm in the scene with the skull, and the blood was real. Hence the reaction on Kerry Washington’s face. Great scene.
One of my favorite movies. Acting is phenomenal and has countless of funny scenes.
27:53, that's what it's like in Hollywood, if you want in you've got to blow the director
pause
It’s a good joke, a great joke even…
Death Proof is worth a watch for the Car scenes alone
YESS!! I’VE ALWAYS WANTED YOU GUYS TO REACT TO IT!!!
“I like the way you die boy” is one of the most badass lines I’ve ever heard before a kill oh my gosh…
Tarantino is class A director. Don't sleep on his less known stuff. From Dusk Till Dawn, Jackie Brown. There all good. My personal favorite of his is probably Inglorious Bastards. But there all good.
First rule of Tarantino movies: Everyone dies. No second rule. ( except we might get a few feet 🦶 along the way )
Ahh man I wish this was a full table reaction I could only imagine all the laughs together. Especially the "raid" scene.
