...Django Unchained. It was alright, nothing more. Tarantino has lost his drive imo. And he shouldn't do (bad) comedy scenes*, they ruin the whole atmosphere.
*The KKK scene is like right out of Life Of Brian; it would have made sense in that film but not in this one where you have to believe the brutality of the characters.
Prometheus. Piss poor storytelling - almost Doctor Who bad! - and why hire Guy Pearce to play a very old man? Why not just hire a very old man? But it did look good and Michael Fassbender was excellent.

The scene with the bags on the head was a great comedy scene!
Anyway, I'd say comedy is an essential part of all Tarantino's films.

The bag scene was too dumb, far too childish. And not in the slightest original. It reminded me of the KKK scene in Fletch Lives.

I won't deny that.

Someone else had a similar idea in the past?!

I understand what you are saying. But I enjoyed the film so damn much that Tarantino could literally spit in my face throughout and I'd still come away happy.
The man shoots a horse. 
Yeah, the horse scenes are pretty brutal. I have no idea how they filmed them, especially as Tarantino is so opposed to CGI :/
Am surprised he didn't strangle them like he did with that woman.
Sam L. Jackson had white hair...but Mr. Vanity Tarantino himself had badly dyed brown hair.

A vain man would never dress as badly as Tarantino does!

I hear the scenes where Quentin Tarantino acts are pretty brutal too.

I've seen an interview with him. He was wearing a kimono like suit.
