Quentin Tarantino's 'Django Unchained' ORIGINAL SONGS
Principle photography on Quentin Tarantino's 'Django Unchained' has begun.
The first scene, rumored from a supposed 'insider' described it as this:
"On a cold, wet afternoon two cowboys trudge across a muddy street in a western town carrying saddles on their backs as a loud speaker blasts Jim Croce’s hit song "I got a Name."
The film is set to be released Christmas, 2012, and follows a slave on a rampage of revenge through the South, filmed in the famous Spaghetti Western style of the 60's and 70's.
Here's the song, 'I Got A Name':
The cast includes big names such as:
Jamie Foxx
Joseph Gordon Levitt
Christoph Waltz
Sacha Baron Cohen
Leonardo DeCaprio
Samuel L. Jackson
Kurt Russel
and
Kerry Washington
Anybody as excited as I am?
Here's the new poster:

This film should be a good way to end the year.
Oh, should have sourced it. It was on the article on http://reservoirwatchdogs.com/ if your interested.
Its apparantly using the same set as the Deadwood TV Show.

There was notably a scene with elk and bison, at this location:
HAHAHA okay.
I don't think he's overrated at all. Infact I think he's underrated, his films often don't win the awards they should because of the violence, which I think is unfair.
No he doesn't win anything because for quite a few films he hasn't added anything new, he just copies stuff that gives him a wood as a fanboy. I am quite sure that with his new movie all the QT fanboys will go ballistic but if they take the time looking at the original movies he is copying now you'll find that they are step for step better.
You say he's 'copying', I say he's remaking films in the genres that are all but gone.
Reservoir Dogs/Pulp Fiction - He loves gangster flicks, so he made damn gangster flicks.
Jackie Brown - Well, he didn't write it, but he liked a book so he directed it.
Kill Bill V.1/2 - He loves 70's Karate B-movies, so he made 70's Karate B-movies and mixed a little western in there.
Death Proof - He loves grindhouse flicks, so he made a grindhouse flick.
Inglourious Basterds - He loves 'guys on a mission' movies, so he made a 'guys on a mission' movie AS WELL AS a revenge flick.
Django Unchained - He loves spaghetti westerns, so he made a spaghetti western.
He just sees what he likes, notices its not made anymore, so he steps up and makes them! Its like Chevy bringing back the Camero, or Dodge bringing back the Charger. He likes novelty, so he makes it. He takes classic elements and mixes them about a bit.
Like it or not, he does what he wants, and he gets respect for it. Don't be mad at him for doing something he loves and making money.
But he knows his movie stuff.
Yes, indeed he does over-rate himself by a far margin. And admittingly, when he deserves an Oscar, he gets it ala Christoph Waltz as Landa and for scripting Pulp.
Kill Bill was 'epic' but didn't have Oscar worthy moments, same with Jackie and Death Proof. And Reservoir Dogs was too early, and Oscar rarely is generous to newcomers. It took Martin Scorsese decades and dozens of mesmerizing films to get an Oscar nod.
The OSCARS are overrated.
Every year there is constant proof that the oscars are out of touch. This year drive didn't get a nod for anything, while extremely loud and incredibly close somehow did. And before then we've had christopher nolan constantly snubbed in the best director category.
Drive indeed deserved alot more than it got. What an excellent film. Quentin Tarantino was quoted saying that 'Refn needs to learn from the master' or something like that and didn't even put it on his 'best' list of 2011. The bastard. In fact I think he put it on his 'worst' list because he felt it was trying too hard.
EL&IC only got a nod because the OSCARS are American and its a film about 9/11. Boo hoo get over it. A films setting shouldn't win it awards.
And Nolan's rewards are the records he breaks every time he goes to the box office :P
I saw the list and I was suprised, because I thought drive was something he'd enjoy. Anf for the oscars, the films settings might not always win the awards but they definetly help (if the film is set in the past, like around 1800s, and based on some histrocial thing then they'll probably love it)
While it does add to the story, films should be judged on their script first, acting second, direction third. If it has a good script, a good actor will highlight it beautifully. A good script and good acting paired with good direction often makes the perfect film.
Joking aside, I was happy that he put red state and attack the block on his list, films which I thought were underrated.
I agree, but the oscars seem to go nuts over any big drama based on history.
Sam Mendes has been there, done that ;)

Will Tarantino sweep the Oscars up next year?
I'm in too. (obviously) But since Inglourious Basterds, you pair up Waltz and Tarantino and I'm there.
He is also a good actor director. Uma Thurman was never as good as in Kill Bill (as for her worse, it's a tie between Batman and Robin and The Avengers). Same with Travolta in Pulp Fiction. So yes, it cold have worked. But we'll probably never know, will we?
