    Pulp fiction has to be top, hunny bunny. Kill Bill would make a top list of Japanese gore movies, but that doesn’t make them good movies. 1 over 2. Towards the bottom. Jackie Brown is a very strong police/mob movie, but just ahead of kill bill series.

    Inglorious and Django are both hateful, and grating at parts, but both great films. Christof Waltz acting taking the show, though the script/writing counts.

    DeathProof is good, but Jackie Brown better. Reservoir dogs is in this cluster. I’d put tied with Jackie Brown.

    The hateful 8 is a very good movie. To me, is 2nd to Pulp. Jules is not back there on brains picking detail, motherfucker, but there is dead negroe storage.

    Once upon a time in Hollywood is just ok. Bonus points for historical value as hateful 8 has. Still I’d put it in kill bill group, and just behind.

    I’d put Inglorious and Django in the hateful 8 cluster instead of the Jackie Brown cluster… and so I have ranked them all.
