I'm sure I have mentioned this before but, when I was doing my dissertation module on the International Film MA, everyone was shown a selection of previous titles, one of which was something along the lines of "Quentin Tarantino: Referencing Genius or Cinematic Plagiarist?".

There is undoubtedly a continuum because many modern directors reference the work of other filmmakers. However, it is undoubtedly a case of whether they do it subtly or overtly, doing so with a slight musical cue in one scene or take the entire story from one film, characters from another, costumes from a third, camera angles from one director, editing styles from another, and music from 10 other films.

Or the entire opening sequence from Django. Song and all!

I like QT movies. I think he's upfront when making films, makes no attempt to claim he's doing this kind of thing for the first time.

@Sam & Plato

Hope you two like Outcast.

I suppose if you don't you haven't exactly broke the bank.

I haven't just bought them, but HMV shipped their exclusive (Premium Collection) BDs of The Shining, Soylent Green, The Omega Man, Them! & Logan's Run. I'll try and post photos when they arrive tomorrow.
