Tarantino breaks down his Top 20 of the last 17 (yes, *17*) years:

Surprisingly unsurprising choices.

I adore Tarantino, and have liked most of his films, but what was he smoking when he decided that Anything Else and Unbreakable where among the best movies made in the last 17 years??

Also, maybe it's just me, but Lost in Translation was incredibly overrated

P.S. A wild and woolly one with Quentin on Stern, this morning. Refused to confirm or deny whether he's boned Uma (he did), divulged that Pitt was paid 9 mill for IB and that he broke him off a big piece of hash when QT visited him in France, to pitch the flick.

Also confirmed that he has a foot fetish, has been tempted to try erotic-asphyxiation and dated Kathy Griffin (who has a cameo in PF).

I loved the original Battle Royale - but the sequel was such a piece of crap.

And I really enjoyed Inglorious Basterds - anyone else seen it yet? I haven't seen a thread.

While, by my estimation, Anything Else is no better than the eighth-best flick Woody's put out in the last 17 years, it is underrated. Jason Biggs and Christina Ricci are excruciating, but the scenes between Woody's and Biggs' characters are priceless.

I hate Tarantino. I just wanted to post on Ace's thread.
