He Lost Me Post KILL BILL, Sadly

Well, even though I can understand how someone could actually feel that he's on "autopilot", I still find his movies creative. Yes, in a way his last three movies are similar in many ways, but they all have a different kind of storytelling.

The major similarities between the three: slow pacing, when the violent scenes come it is rarely involving only one character dying, all three have one character who sounds like a "know-it-all", all three are in a way or another about revenge, they all have at least one highly racist character, the heroes enjoy killing and feel it's for a good cause, there's always at least one character who seems flawless and fails because he overestimated his plan. I could probably go on but I think you get the idea.

The differences: they each have a unique way to tell the stories and the lines are not structured in the same way (you have Ingloriois Basterds which has a funnier pacing in which you could hardly take it seriously, while Django Unchained had some drama here and there and the lines were progressive and finally The Hateful Eight which was way darker and the characters were rambling on a lot), the characters didn't the same ambitions or purpose (we could agree that Shoshana and Django both seeked revenge and ceased their opportunities though, but then again not for the same reasons or in the same way... one didn't see every white people like enemies but only those who supported slavery while in the other case she saw every Nazis as enemies and was ready to exterminate them all), they were filmed in different ways (I would need to make a whole paragraph to clarify this one so if you're interested), the main villains have totally different ways to function and we couldn't say that they try to achieve the same goals (here again you could say that this is normal and doesn't make it "original" but I could explain myself further on this one too), all three have at least one kind of annoying character but once again they are different.
