Quentin Tarantino & Philosophy

If you are looking for some Tarantino-themed holiday gifts to give this year, this Quentin Tarantino & Philosophy book has always looked good.

The films of Quentin Tarantino are ripe for philosophical speculation, raising compelling questions about justice and ethics, violence and aggression, the nature of causality, and the flow of time. How is Tarantino able to create a coherent story when he jumps between past, future, and present? The philosophers in this book take on those questions and more in essays as provocative as the films themselves.

More liberal concern about how Quentin is going to portray race and gender issues.  Whats the over/under on the number of times he gets called a racist because of his film?

Huffington Post’s liberal angst over Django Unchained

Can Tarantino Handle Slavery

I find it hilarious that there is so much hand-wringing about the topics of Tarantino’s films.  He’ll be fine.

Gordon-Levitt Added to Djanjo Unchained

Joseph Gordon-Levitt – who I always remember from 3rd Rock From The Sun – is likely part of the Django Unchained cast. Scheduling issues are going to be a problem though.
