Django Unchained 13:22 - Feb 19 with 3214 views | LOTR | Has anyone seen it? I watched it last night and was very very impressed by it. Christoph Waltz and Di Caprio are outstanding. It's classic Tarantino, everything has been thought about, from the music to the camera work, its long and bloody, but it's just a fantastic film. Not sure when it's out in the UK but i watched it and would recommend it to anyone. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Django Unchained on 13:31 - Feb 19 with 3194 views | simmo | Been out a few weeks here and echo the sentiments, really cool film. Waltz in particular is brilliant and a great screen presence. Hard to believe his first big film role was Inglorious Basterds just a few years ago. Well worth seeing | ![](/images/avatars/1322.gif) |

Django Unchained on 14:18 - Feb 19 with 3119 views | Antti_Heinola | usual awful tarantino tat IMO. Too long, false endings, just chuck everything in and 'borrow' from as many people as possible and hope for the best. Good performances, but, personally, I think Tarantino bust his flush years and years ago. | ![](/images/avatars/5743.gif) |

Django Unchained on 14:22 - Feb 19 with 3117 views | westberksr | thought it was quite entertaining and how i'd expect QT to do a homage to the spaghetti western with a bit of a blaxploitation spin thrown in. of all the lead parts the only one that disappointed a bit was Samuel L Jackson who just semed to roll out his standard QT performance; that's probably down to the director as much as anything seeing as he wrote, produced, directed and acted in the film as per usual. not as good as some of the hype but if you like his style it won't disappoint. the scene with hte KKK did have me in stitches though; a very funny scene. | ![](/images/avatars/1638.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Django Unchained on 18:35 - Feb 19 with 2902 views | TacticalR | I watched it a few weeks ago by accident, because after a match the stream switched to Django, and I got hooked and ended up watching the whole thing. As a movie it was excellent. As a piece of history it was absolute nonsense. In the film slavery is presented as a kind of sadism, whereas in reality slavery was central to America's development. That explains why the most enlightened men were slaveholders. George Washington, the First President was a slaveholder, as was Thomas Jefferson the writer of that marvel of democratic rights, the American Declaration of Independence. But Quentin explains...it was all a few bad guys wasn't it? It should have been called 'Quentin cleans up an unfortunate chapter in American history by getting medieval on the asses of slaveholders'. | ![](/images/avatars/7026.gif) |

Django Unchained on 19:40 - Feb 19 with 2848 views | derbyhoop | Saw it a few weeks ago. Loved it. Very funny and violent. Although the blood is so over the top, even that was funny. The dialogue was superb and Waltz and Foxx excellent. Possibly too long. Better editing could have reduced it by 15-20 minutes but well worth seeing. | ![](/images/avatars/1276.gif) |

Hey Nath, Alls well this end, spoke to Rol last night and he showed me a picture of young Eamon on "Chicken Shop" on Channel 4, have you seen it yet? Weather is good here(surprise surprise) been in my own house now for about 8 months, love it. I'll be back home over Xmas/New Year this year, so should get to a few Championship games next season!!

Django Unchained on 05:13 - Feb 20 with 2745 views | UPPERLOFTNZ | Been out here in NZ for about a month.. seen it twice now absolute classic.

Django Unchained on 08:52 - Feb 20 with 2714 views | simmo | It is so easy to hate on Tarantino, almost because liking him is conforming to some kind of film hipster stereotype when in actual fact if you just take his movies as you find them, they are at best stylish modern classics and at worst different to the never ending production line of Holywood remakes and sequels. Tarantino never makes excuses for his chosen style, he makes the films he wants in the style he prefers drawing from influences that he openly credits from the millions of films that he has seen. Why is it different from any band out there making good RnB after growing up listening to the Who or whatever? I dont like all of his movies but some are amongst my favourites and although I completely agree with the comment about editing shaving off 20 mins might have improved it, this film was very cool and I left feeling like I got my moneys worth. Also LOTR good spot with the Big L line, I didnt think anybody would get that! | ![](/images/avatars/1322.gif) |

It's not meant to be history though is it - likewise from Inglorious Basterds, I'm pretty sure WW2 didn't end with Eli Roth [spoilers redacted] However, the men who you cite were almost a century before Django is set (and also Jefferson later tried and narrowly failed to ban slavery expanding into the territories and banned the importation of slaves ). By that point it had all but disappeared in the North and was focused entirely in the South, where some pretty nasty stuff went down, especially on the plantations. Amusingly enough, after seeing the film Lincoln recently, the state of Mississippi realised they'd never actually formally ratified the 13th amendment! | ![](/images/avatars/6058.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Django Unchained on 13:10 - Feb 20 with 2614 views | QPunkR | I saw it the week it came out (my mate was a bit keen). I really really enjoyed it. If you just take it as you find it, not as an historical analysis of slavery etc, I think it's absolutely brilliant barnstorming entertainment. Waltz absolutely steals the show, great part, great performance | ![](/images/avatars/5500.gif) |
