I enjoyed Inglorious Basterds, but it helps that I have low expectations of Tarantino post-Pulp Fiction. I actually preferred (and still prefer) Resevoir Dogs to Pulp Fiction anyway so Pulp Fiction was where he jumped the shark, for me.

Just the other night watched the Hateful Eight.

I enjoyed it conceptually, the journey through the snow, and picking up travellers, and the cabin in the middle of nowhere. And how the bulk of the action took place on one set. It was like a play, and I liked that. But I still wish he'd move on from the monologue-dialogue thing, and the everyone dying at the end thing. I did enjoy a couple of satisfying splatter moments.
