What the fuck are you talking about. A movie is supposed to tell a story with pictures and move the audience. I don't mean spiritually, but if you think that directors don't want to move their audience then you're wrong. As for writing, I watched the first kill bill and it was fight scene after fight scene. Hemmingway was a classic writer, I don't know about Tarantino.

Javier:
If your having doubts on Tarantinos writing ability...just read the Reservoir Dogs screenplay.  Good storytellers dont mean they have to be able to move an audience. 


speaking of Kill Bill,  Tarantino choreographed all of the fights and hes not even a martial arts choregrapher!   

Sikotic™:
Scorscese never really had any moving movies either, but he's a great film maker.

I don't want to imply that I think he is a bad writer, but a couple of great scripts doesn't make you one of the greats. He's no Shakespeare.

I don't know what your trying to imply by saying he choreographed the fight scenes.







And for Si-ko'tic; Scorscese has way more classics than Tarantino, and Raging Bull is very moving, and Taxi Driver is also up there.

Javier:
Scorcese has been making movies since the 70s!  Of course he is going to have more classics.  Name me a filmmaker thats non asian who has choregraphed martial arts.

Bruce Willis, Travolta, Samuel L Jackson, David Carradine have  all said that Tarantinos writing is just AMAZING writing.
