Tarantino's new film to be a western set in slave times

Quote :

"I'd like to do a Western. But rather than set it in Texas, have it in slavery times. With that subject that everybody is afraid to deal with. Let's shine that light on ourselves. You could do a ponderous history lesson of slaves escaping on the Underground Railroad. Or, you could make a movie that would be exciting. Do it as an adventure. A spaghetti Western that takes place during that time. And I would call it 'A Southern.'"

A commenter at Hollywood Elsewhere claims to have read the script and describes it further as follows:

"The title character Django is a freed slave, who under the tutelage of a German bounty hunter (Christoph Waltz) becomes a badass bounty hunter himself and after assisting Waltz on taking down some bad guys for profit, is in turn assisted by Waltz in tracking down his slave wife and liberating her from an evil plantation owner. And that doesn't even half begin to cover it! This film deals with racism as I've rarely seen it handled in a Hollywood film. While it's 100 percent pure popcorn and revenge flick, it is pure genius in the way it takes on the evil slave owning south. Think of what he did with the Nazis in Inglourious and you'll get a sense of what he's doing with slave owners and slave overseers in this one. It's violent and funny and full of great Tarantino monologues and shoot outs (and slave rapes and slave tortures) and the center piece of the script is this fantastic relationship between Django and his Obi-Wan Waltz and it all just f*cking works in the way only Tarantino makes it work."

should be good and i love westerns.

Kinda disappointed it's not going to be a full out western.

I don't want QT to ever make a movie that falls into a generic genre

I ran the quote through the Bullshit Translator and this is what it gave me;

I need a fresh excuse to populate my script with the word "Nigger" as many times as I can and a slave movie provides the perfect cover story.

QT does seem to be obsessed with that word, even uttered it himself in Pulp Fiction.

Tarantino even shoe horned in some N discussion in Inglorious Basterds .

Fine by me. He says the word every1 thinks is forbidden to be said.

LOL you know Nigger is gonna be all throughout this movie. They might even eat Nigger in the movie who knows?

Spike Lee already got on QT for the N word usage after the release of Jakie Brown and ended up getting completely owned by Samuel L. Jackson. Simply, QT can say the N word as much as he wants and nobody can tell him nothing, because he does not care. Kind of like how Trey Parker and Matt Stone never get in trouble for saying fag and nigger on south park..they always put it in it's proper or funny context and even if people got mad, they would tell them to go fuck themselves.

Will Smith could be up for the lead.

Isn't Denzel a bit old for the role ?

He doesn't look that old lol.

I think Washington would be good in a Tarantino movie.

Denzel finally looked his age in Unstoppable.

I'd recommend Chiwetel Ejiofor for this role.

How about a talented white actor in black face?

How about Isaiah Washington?

How about Ken Jeong?

PERFECT!

Last i checked, Denzel didnt appreciate Quentin Tarantino using the word "nigger" too much in his films. So i doubt he'll do this one.

I'd like to see Will Smith with a QT script. I think Tarantino can work magic with Smith.

Would be nice to see Smith in a meaty role for a change, I am bored of all the nice guy hero roles.

Will Smith...QT? Shut up with that noise. Please don't fag op Tarantino with Will motherfucking Smith. Why not Martin Larwence or fuck it, Tyler Perry!?
