Quentin Tarantino recently chose his top 20 movies of 2010, led by Toy Story 3. Excluding the ones I still haven’t seen, all of his choices made at least my honorable mentions list, with the exceptions of Robin Hood and Knight and Day. Seriously, Q, Robin Hood? He must have let the Coke Wizard choose that one. (That’s the magical wizard behind Tarantino in the picture who shows up when Quentin does too much blow). I don’t have one of those, but there is a leprechaun who bruises me up and pees in my bed when I drink too much. I’ll get you one day, Shameus O’Reardon.

Unfortunately, he doesn’t explain his choices further. Some notable snubs: Inception, Black Swan, Winter’s Bone, and especially Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, which I assume he’s seen, considering he and director Edgar Wright are friendly enough for Wright to speak at his Friar’s Club roast earlier this year. My best guess is that he was pissed Scott didn’t end up with the Asian chick.
Here’s that credit scene from Enter the Void:

#1 all time on QT’s xmas wish list?
[pictureisunrelated.memebase.com]
I’m just going to assume that Robin Hood and Knight & Day have lingering shots of women’s feet.
I watched Scott Pilgrim this weekend. Best movie I’ve seen in a while.
Well, that was hectic.
All I managed to glean from those credits were the words ‘Japanese Strip Clup’ and ‘Paz de la Huerta’. I’m excited.
Those credits were great, but where did this knife come from, and why is my family dead?
Clearly the coke wizard trained QT’s dragon. In his version, Puff the Magic Dragon is about crack, not weed, and Peter Paul & Mary die in a Mexican standoff.
Pauly, meanwhile, is a Mexican standoffish. Hang out with the rest of us sometime man.
QT: Oh man, look what the Coke Wizard made me do! I have a Tom Cruise movie AND “Robin Hood” on my top 20 list. I must summon him to remove this curse!!!
*SSSSSSSSSNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTT!*
QT: SHAZAM!
CW: The courtesy of your hall has lessened of late, Quentin.
QT: Spare me the fucking mumbo jumbo, and help me figure out how to unfuck this situation!
CW: Your movie list makes you look like an unfunny, retarded failure in life. Speak, “unfunny retarded failure”, and redeem.
QT: Fine, fine…what’s the Elven word for “unfunny retarded failure”?
CW: Fallon.
Though I don’t care to defend the movie, I liked the credits for Irrevirsable better.
Those credits were . . . interesting, but best of the decade? No, that would be “Watchmen.” People getting slo-mo punched in the face, lesbians, hippies getting gunned down, it’s got it all.
I’m going to watch this again with my Silver Shamrock Haloween mask on.
As opening sequences go, I’m partial to the first 10 minutes of Dead Man.
‘Look out the window. Doesn’t this remind you of when you were in a boat?’ remains the best way to open a conversation with strangers.
Wrong decade, fuckface. 16 years old now, shit. I suppose that means it doesn’t count as a decent recent performance by Depp, either.
No Black Swan?
The real question is, how will he rip off all of those movies and mash it all together into an incoherent, epileptic siezure inducing mess?
I wish I recorded my reaction when I saw this vid. The first half was me giggling like a pothead looking at ants amrching.
*marching
As luck would have it, I saw Knight and Day this weekend, and, although there are no lingering shots of women’s feet, it does feature many shots of Cameron Diaz’s face, so I can see how Tarantino’s foot fetish would be aroused.
Black Swan wasn’t on there because he assumed Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis going down on each other was just another of his beautiful hallucinations.
The credits forgot to mention the Jewish Unit, Ron Jeremy
Not to be outdone, Robert Rodriguez released his top ten list, which consists of 6 porn titles, and the word ‘Machete’ repeated 4 times.
that is a seizure waiting to happen
Fucking Classic- I need to remember tis one-
(That’s the magical wizard behind Tarantino in the picture who shows up when Quentin does too much blow). I don’t have one of those, but there is a leprechaun who bruises me up and pees in my bed when I drink too much. I’ll get you one day, Shameus O’Reardon.
Like that damn Penguin in Billy Madison.
He needs to be shoved up Hitler’s ass also.
Greenberg – really? I guess I just completely didn’t get that movie. Lots of people say how great it was, but why? I kept waiting for something to happen… or for some kind of transformation or redemption to occur. Or something to give me a sense of hope. I thought Greenberg was an asshole regardless of his mental hospital stint and he seemed to hurt and disappoint everyone who was good to him. And then – nothing seemed to change? How does that make this a good movie? I must have missed it……..
