My prayers have been answered, woohoo! 
Should be cool if it matches the tone of the film.
I donāt see why we should have any doubts about this.
QT mustve really liked Bobās work on Kill Bill. I figured heād use someone new, but its great to hear theyll be working together again. The films gonna look beautiful, thats for sure.
Now it really will be like Kill Bill set in WWII ;D
That is REALLY good news, im very happy. Like VERY FUCKIN happy kill bill was soā¦ visually attractive, the color, the lighting, the shots everything was so pretty. this will be kickass
Very good news! With all the efforts that have to be made to get great acting performances from some parts of the IB cast having a great DP to do the DP job isnāt too muchā¦
I still feel Death Proof is the best filmed of QTās work, but itās not like Kill Bill didnāt look amazing, so this isnāt bad news.

But for a small project, especially one paying tribute to movies that never had great DPs -western exploitation cinema-, it might be acceptable that heād do the job himself. For a big multinational project like IB, itās another story.

I assume there are unwritten rules out there as to whatās āacceptableā and what not? ;D most people donāt even know what a Cinematographer is, nor do most people even look at the credits of a film, most people woulnāt notice or care who actually did that job, even less so if the end result looks good in the first placeā¦

To get more precise: DP was a tribute to a kind of movies -low budget Western exploitation movies of the 70ās- which most of the time hadnāt a decent cinematographersā work. So to me it wasnāt risky that QT used Death Proof for his first experience as a DP. For projects like KB or IB itās another story: itās very hard to manage at the same time filming, acting direction, a multinational and multilingual cast AND a DP work. Plus I CARE about the DP work and believe me what RR did for KB is something not every professional DP can doā¦
[color=yellow]hooray for Bob Richardson! Thatāll do Quentin, thatāll do
on another noteā¦i feel that after Saving Private Ryan, WWII movies always have that dark gritty look, like they NEED to be like thatā¦The Thin Red Line did a great job at not copying that style though, that film looked beautilfulā¦the choices in style for IB should be interesting to see

Well, The Thin Red Line came out at the same time as SPR, so it couldnāt have copied it, but I know what you mean. I really hated it in Clint Eastwoodās WWII-films. It looked so fake and bad.
