December 19, 201510 yr Directed by Quentin Tarantino. With Jennifer Jason Leigh, Channing Tatum, Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell and Walton Goggins. I plan on seeing this before the New Year. Anyone else plan on seeing it? [video=youtube;gnRbXn4-Yis]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnRbXn4-Yis
December 19, 201510 yr Most definitely. Very excited to see this one. Sitting in the theater for 3+ hours isn't particularly appealing, but I'll make it work.

December 19, 201510 yr While I like most of the actors in this — and the fact that the awful Kurt Russell seems to be reprising his best role of Wyatt Earp — how am I supposed to know what the hell this is about?

Gonna take a stab at this for you. Winter. Cabin/Lodge. Old West. Eight People. I think they will shoot and stab each other. Edit P.S. And talk a bunch before they do.
December 20, 201510 yr Tarantino was on Howard Stern this week, and he said (paraphrasing) that the idea was to take the mysterious character who rolled in to town in any western show, where you didn't know their motivations - good or evil - until the end of the episode, and make an entire movie using only those characters and see where it goes. Interesting enough for me, in theory.

It's Tarantino. What is there to know? Lots of blood and violence with a story in there somewhere. Is it about the story or about the violence? Chicken or egg?

Kurt Russell is transporting Jennifer Jason Leigh who is wanted and worth 10K. The blizzard hits and he gets stuck in a cabin with the star studied cast and they will battle it out to see who leaves with the girl and gets the money. Or will the girl have someone in the cabin who will help her escape? I for one can't wait to see it. I may see this before I see Star Wars. Love me some Tarantino!!!!!!

I guess my lack of understanding came from this: • What the Sam Hill was the goal? • Why? • Why should we care about Jennifer Jason Leigh? I mean, beyond being Somebody's Baby.
December 21, 201510 yr I guess my lack of understanding came from this: • What the Sam Hill was the goal? • Why? • Why should we care about Jennifer Jason Leigh? I mean, beyond being Somebody's Baby. There is one answer to all three of those questions......Tarantino.
December 21, 201510 yr There is one answer to all three of those questions......Tarantino. Pretty sure that's why I'll watch.
December 23, 201510 yr If someone has a $10,000 prize why on earth would they openly reveal that info to 7 other unscrupulous people, armed to the teeth, within cramped quarters in a snowstorm???
