Tarantino Bashing

Exactly. And the world has jumped, fullspeed, on his jock on the strength of
those two silly, derivative exercises. I saw twice as much cinematic
originality in Trainspotting than all the wannabe hard-boiled dialogue in
Tarantino's films. The strength of the backlash is equal to the size of the
hype. That's Isaac Newton, more or less. For Christ's sake, they've
re-released the lame Switchblad Sisters with Tarantino's nerdy mug in the
corner to hopefully dredge up some revenue. Give me a fucking break. For one
of the more blatantly prejudiced directors (the only mainstream [he's not an
indie] director to have ever realized a long-standing white American desire
to fuck the blacks up the ass) to receive this much acclaim is as ludicrous
and offensive as our so-called anti-bandwagoneering might be to you.

P.S. Whoever corrected me on the dates of Lynch's NYC showing at AMMI was
right. Blame it on jetlag.
