You know, if I was in Rodriguez’s place and be given the opportunity to pay 1 dollar so as to use Tarantino’s name all over the fuckin movie as a promotional push, I wouldn’t hesitate for one second. Besides, as Winslow said, Tarantino publicly talks about movies he loves because he’s passionate about cinema. That writer mentions two speicific movies which Tarantino publicly praised. One of them is Shaun of the Dead. If you look at any dvd cover to Shaun of the Dead, you will find selected quotes on the film from a VARIETY of filmmakers…Romero, Peter Jackson, Stephen King etc. It’s not fair that only Tarantino gets blamed for a thing which doesn’t even make sense in the first place. The other movie QT is accused of praising is Oldboy. Well, I guess it would have been very difficult for QT NOT to express his opinion since he was THE FUCKING PRESIDENT OF THE JURY AT CANNES that year. The dickhead who wrote that article obviously doesn’t have a clue on what he’s talking about because 1.)there’s nothing wrong in using a name to legitimately promote your movie and 2.)even if there was, it isn’t QT’s fault that other people are using his name for promotional reasons.
