With his latest film in US theatres now (us folk in the UK have to wait a couple more weeks before we get to see it), it’s probably an ideal time to spend a Sunday evening talking about Quentin Tarantino.

Now, unless you have been under a rock for a few years, you’ve surely been aware of the various controversies currently being discussed, reported on, and just plain getting in the way of the release of his new film. With these controversies being quite an important factor in people’s takes on QT, a question broaching them has been added to the round. When it comes to answering, let’s all remember the golden rule of #MTOS – there are no right or wrong answers, and even if you disagree, please do so respectfully!

All that said, even with the controversies in mind, it is impossible to see the impact Tarantino has had on cinema over the past few decades. He may have only directed 9 films (or 8 if you consider Kill Bill one film), but his style and influence have permeated the very culture he riffs on.

Q1: Okay, let’s start simple.  Top 3 Tarantino directed films, and why? #MTOS

Q2: Now, bottom three films directed by Tarantino, and what makes them rank lower?  Are they ‘bad films’ or just ‘not as good as the others’?  #MTOS

Q3: What about films which Tarantino contributed to (script, acting, producer) but didn’t actually direct?  Which are worth seeing?  #MTOS

Q4: Frequent collaborators – Tarantino has worked with the same people a few times.  Which star is your favourite frequent collaborator with the director? #MTOS

Q5: You can’t mention Tarantino without his musical choices coming up at some point.  Which of his films’ soundtracks make you want to keep listening over and over again? #MTOS

Q6: Tarantino, like a lot of directors, is known for certain schticks and tropes that help identify a film as his.  What are your favourite ‘Tarantinisms’ and which are a bit irksome? #MTOS

Q7: Tarantino has a skill with dialogue which have made his films immensely quotable.  What lines, or even full scenes, are amongst your favourite? #MTOS

Q8: Over the years there have been calls to “cancel” Tarantino, with a lot of emphasis on his choice of racist language in films, relationship with Weinstein and also how it seems he views women in his films.  But do these complaints hold water, and should we separate artist from the art? #MTOS

Q10: Okay, now for his tenth film.  What genre would you love to see him tackle for his swansong, and which stars would you love to see drafted in to bring it to screen? #MTOS
