Calling it now: Animal Planet brings him out of retirement for Reservoir Hogs
- He will be the voice of Mr. Conductor on Thomas the tank engine.
- Not a Big Foot documentary?
Why do I get the feeling he's not going to actually release anything for a long time now?

I don't think he will ever be happy with whatever his "last" film is
- Why do I get the feeling he's not going to actually release anything for a long time now?
  
  I dunno, maybe the word "final"? 🤷
  
  Well yes, he's no longer making the final film
  
  I assume that means he's going to write a new one as his final
Can’t wait to se Tarantino pivot to doing a Transformers sequel as his 10th film.
- Did you see a sign that says dead decepticon storage?
- Still hoping for a Star Trek movie.
  
  Please no. Star Trek already tried the dark shit with discovery and it didn't work. Star Trek is hopeful, and thought provoking. Tarantino really isn't good at either of those things
  
  Sisko gets raped. Dax....feets.
- sweats in the jive talking Transformers
I thought this was going to be bad news. Hope he comes up with something not set in the 70s. I had enough of that with Once Upon A Time in Hollywood.
It would be great if he would just make 11 films. The script he's junked for this one which is a sort of sequel for Once Upon A Time In Hollywood sounded amazing.
He didn't even wait until the end of the movie to kill off all the characters this time
I'm glad he's retiring, he's morphing into Spielberg who just makes grandpa movies now.

I didn't even bother with once upon a time in Hollywood, I'm done with the badass white savoir bullshit. White guy beats up Bruce lee was the only thing I heard about this movie that made me nope out.

Why didn't your white guy beat a badass white dude like Bronson or Norris? Why have him beat the ethnic badass if not for white supremacy
- Either you’re trolling or you need to watch a movie yourself first before jumping to conclusions on what it’s about.
  
  There's a scene in which the white hero beats up Bruce lee. That's all I needed to know to avoid it. I know it happens in the movie, am I wrong?
- Bold take for having not seen it
  
  There's a scene where the white hero beats up Bruce lee, that's a fact. That alone guarantees that I won't want to watch it
- Have you heard about a movie called "Django Unchained"?
  
  Believe it or not, a person can like black people while being racist towards someone from Hong Kong. Imagine that? QT is no stranger to being called out on his racism towards Chinese or Hong Kong peoples.
  
  Racism is complicated, it's not "oh look he made a pro black movie, therefore he can't be racist towards an Asian!". Black people and Asians aren't the same you know
