Or, to stay true to the genre, how many Welles films are of significant merit? Coppola (and...talk about violent!).
Tarantino has made one of the great heist movies (RD), one of the best (I'd say the very best) film noir double-cross capers (PF), an exquisitely complex and satisfying drug adventure (JB), and the absolute best martial arts epic. Not a bad résumé. Perhaps if you'd look at the fullness of the glass and stop concentrating on its empty piece?
The violence in his films is NEVER gratuitous...it always advances the story, defines a character, leads to a critical moment---except of course, in KB 1 & 2.
Now, you just don't care for him, fine. I don't particularly like Tarkovski, he doesn't possess any pacing: kind of like a guy who can't dance but squeezes some bored broad and lunges around the floor.
