Tarantino derides 'computer game bullshit'

[nefar559]

Quentin Tarantino has made a typically outspoken, expletive-ridden attack on the increasing use of CGI in modern movies, describing the practice as "computer game bullshit". Railing at the likes of the two Matrix sequels, which have taken the use of computer-generated special effects to new levels of complexity, the director told Empire magazine he was determined to stick to "old school" movie-making techniques for his own films. "You know, my guys are all real. There's no computer fucking around. I'm sick to death of all that shit. This is old school with fucking cameras. If I'd wanted all that computer game bullshit, I'd have gone home and stuck my dick in my Nintendo."

Seems that Quentin Tarantino's become something of a reactionary (or should we say purist?) in his old age. Interviewed in the November issue of Empire magazine (out on 26 September 2003) Quentin got all riled up about The Matrix and the use of evil CGI in movies. This new-found hatred was apparently triggered when director Luc Besson brought Keanu Reeves to an early screening of Kill Bill.

'I watched Keanu watching and I suddenly felt it,' explains Tarantino. [Warning: what follows is definitely an 18 rating verbal explosion] 'You know, my guys are all real. There's no computer fucking around. I'm sick to death of all that shit. This is old school with fucking cameras. If i'd wanted all that computer game bullshit, I'd have gone home and stuck my dick in my Nintendo.

Really warming to his theme, Tarantino continues; 'This CGI bullshit is the death knell of cinema. Movies are far too fucking expensive at the moment and it's killing the fucking art form. The way it's going, in ten year's time it will officially be killed.'

I agree to a point. Some times CGI does look too fake. I prefer puppets and animatronics as opposed to CGI when ever possible. I mean Jurraisc Park would not have looked the same if the Dinosaurs were all 100% computer generated. Just my opinion.

I agree with Tarantino. I too am sick of all these gay ass matrix movies.

Dicx seems to have missed the point.
