I'm well aware that Tarantino wrote but did not direct "From Dusk 'Til Dawn" and "True Romance" and that he only acted in "Four Rooms" (if you can call his egomanicial posturing "acting" -- his performance should win the academy award for "single most self-indulgent piece of crap by a Hollywood Wunderkind"). Like many writers he had three good scripts in him -- with many elements recycled among them -- and he has now fallen into self-parody (I consider Jackie Brown to be a witless re-hash of the characters and violent situations he used in his earlier films to such good effect).Maybe "Kill Bill" will prove me wrong (although I doubt it - even the title is lacking in charm or wit) but I consider Tarantino a has-been who is more concerned with securing a fat paycheck, dating 19 year old hotties and getting his face in People Magazine than crafting another Pulp Fiction.
