    1. makes him writing in the n word for himself to say even weirder and all his foot fetish scenes even weirder. As a dude god he is just so easily hateable

    2. I act in a lot of small movies and short films, when the director says you better be off book while shooting you BETTER be off book and have that shit memorized word for word. If you want to change a line, you better know they exact words you want to change and have a reason why you think yours fit better. We’re hired to act, if we were hired to write we wouldn’t be on camera we would be in a writers room. I get that most actors are self obsessed but it’s insane to think you know better than the director save very specific cases where you’ve come to know the character so intimately that you have an idea for a more fitting way to say the line. The fact that people get paid to act, the easiest job in the world btw, and still can’t comprehend this is crazy to me

    3. If they can sell it to him it's probably worth it. He sounds like he can't see it in the final product he'll consider with credibility but will still consider.

    4. Fun fact! Tarantino is really anal about this but there's a few actors that he kind of lets loose just because they are who they are. For example, Samuel Jackson paraphrases and changes of script all the time but it fits cuz well. It's Samuel Jackson

    5. It's like when Jamie Foxx played Django in Django Unchained. Foxx originally read his lines all cool and laid back. Tarantino told him off straight away. Something along the lines of: "What the fuck is that? I knew I was going to have this problem. He's a fucking slave! He doesn't know how to read! You come in with your fucking Louis Vuitton bag, and your all "I'm so cool…". You're not James Brown! He's a fucking slave! And THEN he becomes the hero. But lose that shit!"

    6. Nice to see the Internet putting respect on his name. He's one of the best writers & Directors of all time. Sure, his stuff can be uncomfortable. It's different. He leaves some stuff for the viewer to contemplate and decide on their own. He knows what he's trying to portray & he gets it on the big screens. Hell of a Director.

    7. One of the only times I’ve heard of an actor paraphrasing or changing Tarantino’s line was Travolta when Vincent accidentally shoots Marvin. The line was just a simple "I shot Marvin." But Travolta wanted it to seem like Vincent was downplaying the mistake, like he stepped on his shoe, so he says "aw man, I shot Marvin in the face."

    8. I’ve never heard something like that before, and I agree with it 100%. The director is basically paying these actors to say the things that he wrote. That’s how he wants it to go. On the other side, I keep hearing these things about improvisation, and being the king of such things, but in the end these directors just want you to say what they wrote and they’re paying you to say what they wrote. Something so simple just blew my mind.

    9. I get it and it goes for all situations in life. Sometimes you're open to input and other times you're not. No ego involved what so ever, just facts.

    10. It baffles me how actors won’t learn their lines. Maybe it’s because I was raised in professional theatre 3rd generation, but the idea of being late, not being prepared, moving props from the prop table, and wearing your costume while eating gives me hives. If Tarantino. Was directing a movie I was in I would work my damned hardest.
