Tarantino's Best Work?! Django Unchained (2012) REACTION! FIRST TIME WATCHING!

[@maximillianosaben]

Y'all don't seem to realize that $12,000 dollars back then is about $423,000 today.

[@Lloyd00]

Fun fact. Jamie was having issues with the horse at the end so he went home and got his own horse lol

[@empi1290]

Always loved the smile the slave gives Django after he rides off…. Smile of respect and admiration .

[@cshubs]

Also, he realizes that Django isn't an evil, black slaver, but a man playing by his own rules for his own reasons.

[@lanzknecht8599]

The man talking to Django at the bar is italian actor Franco Nero. He played Django in the very first movie 1966.

[@kluneberg8952]

i like how once upon uses spaghetti westerns

[@empi1290]

Love Shultz dialogue and irony explaining Alexander Dumas is black while Calvin admires Dumas work yet is racist… pretty much an uppercut to Calvin mentally.

[@enterthebruce91]

Dumas was actually 3/4 White but Americans have that one drop rule mentality so Tarantino wrote the script to have him referred to as Black.

[@arinleoczko1250]

​@@enterthebruce91Pump the brakes, skewing a little compromising 3/5ths there.

[@jmsmys13ify]

Candy didn't have any real knowledge of or admiration for Dumas. Just like his lawyer explaining earlier that he, "doesn't speak French," while insisting he be referred to as Monsieur. It was just a fancy name that he believed made him sound more sophisticated than he was.

[@blinggzillatv]

@@enterthebruce91White Americans created that rule to justify mistreating Black Americans, during and after slavery. The rule was used to divide Whites from Blacks, and whites felt superior. If you had even a hint of Black in you, you were an outcast to white society. But now that Black Americans have become the most culturally influential group on Earth the last 100 years, and being and looking Black is what’s popular, now White people view the 1 drop rule as being divisive to them. Funny how karma works.

[@quwykxz]

I wasn't just Calvin. In that time period, it was the "cool" and "sophisticated" thing to be a Francophile (a lover of all things French) and pretend to be educated in French things. A big percentage of all English, Russian, and American (as well as many other countries) "high society" types would put on these "French airs" and act even more snobbish, shitty, and insufferable than they already were.

[@davidmacey5422]

The "bag" scene is an exquisite work of comedy.

[@danielkwestfall7585]

Did you both not realize that Cristoph Waltz (Dr King Schultz) was who also played Hans Landa in Inglorious Basterds?

[@vernonjreacts4603]

You guys will love the Hateful Eight 🔥🔥

[@AntoineRideaux-wd1zk]

Sam Jackson character was the ultimate house ninja

[@karlminer7896]

After watching this, the October’s will be ready for The Ballad of Buster Scruggs! 💪🏼

[@dunbarf2413]

Christoph Waltz (playing Dr. Schultz) is Austrian-German: Waltz was born in Vienna, Austria on October 4, 1956 to an Austrian mother and German father. He was born with German citizenship and kept it throughout his life. In 2010, he formally requested and received Austrian citizenship. In 2020, he became a naturalized US citizen.

[@TheMayorChi35]

Fun fact that guy Django talking to at the bar after the Mandingo fight, is the original Django.

[@seanstinchfield-mp2xm]

When I was a kid and my dad caught me n my friends holding Mandingo fights upstairs, he’s lose his cool and be like take that crap outside!!

[@kevinslayzak1214]

Christoph waltz is a master actor... epitome of the Nazi in inglorious bastards and the complete opposite in this... amazing actor 🔥🤘 Leo was incredible also, he actually did cut his hand slamming it on the table.. that's all his blood..he just went with it..(great seeing Bo Duke and Don Johnson too..old TV shows that were big awhile ago)

[@Lestat13]

I was waiting for it to click…but I guess Waltz’s character is too convincing 😊

[@chrispratt3666]

The "Looking for Freedom" part after Django sees one of the Brittle brothers for the first time always gets me emotional. I can't imagine the desperation they would have felt.

[@3Kings_Industries]

Before Red Dead Redemption, there was Red Dead Revolver. The theme music for that game is heard early in the film when Django & Shultz begin their winter business in the mountains.

[@icp2724]

Bugs me how everyone identifies Walton goggins with fallout instead of justified. Boyd Crowder was one of the greatest outlaws in television history.

[@hunzren]

This is such a great flick. For me his best is Hateful 8, but that’s because I love period pieces and I love stage plays. And that movie feels like a play.

[@mario.gaines]

29:25 if my math is correct $12,000 in this time period is roughly $461,000

[@kamilyafreshwater3770]

Uncomfortable fact: "Big daddy" at the first plantation is called that by the female slaves because it was common for plantation owners to engage in non consensual sex with their slaves. Both male and female depending on their preference. Notice you dont really see many males on his plantation and a lot of biracial children. The scene is written to be funny but it's also heartbreaking when you know the actual history behind it.

[@Randsurfer]

The men are working the fields, it's the middle of the day.

[@kennycooper294]

wait until you see hateful eight. Quentin called this movie a southern instead of a western.

[@believeume122]

My favorite!

[@HIGHRISH420]

Its a Billiards table not a pool table. Played on a table without pockets, billiards uses three balls: one red, one white with a spot, and one white without a spot. The goal is to hit the white cue ball so that it hits the other two balls in succession. Billiards is a game of strategy and finesse, and players need to plan their shots several moves ahead

[@antoniodalton9256]

Just got hip to something new to me. Thanks.

[@SS4Luxray]

“He gon stay in the big house” 😭😭😭😭

[@astralnomad]

@the octobers - that was the point of shackling the feet.. if you can hardly walk, you definitely aint running anywhere. - the man you thought was stan lee is actually bruce dern.

[@tazsaalim8710]

Dicaprio really cut his hand during the skull presentation. He rubbed tell blood on Kerri Washington

[@neighborlyfiend1484]

The best thing about his movies is the dialog. every movie is a masterclass in dialog.

[@PanAfricanCommunalist]

Not a wide shared opinion but Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is a top 3 Tarantino film for me excited for y’all to watch

[@Casey-u2x]

I cannot argue with that, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is my favorite, the only Tarantino film I saw in theaters and it was amazing!!!

[@Casey-u2x]

I've seen and own all of his movies, Quentin Tarantino poured his heart out with (Hollywood)

[@Timothy1987]

Yeah I just hope they know their history before they watch... so tired of seeing people react to that film and not understanding anything or knowing the people.. it's infuriating lol I love all Tarantinos but Hollywood is his masterpiece.. its flawless..

[@Casey-u2x]

@@Timothy1987 agreed, don't know what the 1987 is but that was the year I was born so that's pretty cool 😎

[@Pokyhawk]

My favorite Tarantino movie. It's very nostalgic for me at my age because the cameo list of this movie reads like a who's who of 1980s movie and television stars. I wouldn't expect modern audiences to recognize 80%+ of them but I smile to see them all again.

[@taylorrussell3158]

Good point. Sadly I recognized Candys gunman as Lord Raiden from Mortal Kombat 2😂

[@belesir8847]

My favourite Tarantino movie for sure, super rewatchable.

[@brianyaniro4797]

That dude wasn't just the sheriff in Kill Bill he also played Esteban the old Mexican pimp. Crazy I never knew it was the same actor til it was pointed out to me.

[@MrLegonzalez]

When it comes to shooting, slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.

[@nammis77]

I really hope you watch True Romance. Even though he technically didn't direct it, he did write it and if he had cash back then he would have directed it. And Hateful Eight is also a cowboy movie, I guess that is next on your list.

[@offthewallreactions]

Gotta see Hateful 8, that’s his true western. ❤

[@campagnollo]

The Marshal who showed up is played by Tom Wopat. He originally played as a bit of a outlaw as Luke Duke in the TV show "The Dukes of Hazzard". It is a ironic cameo that he shows up as the Law.

[@bobbymariani2839]

Y'all gone love this! All of Tarantino movies are classic!

[@rubencorral5579]

Ooohhhh yyyyasaaaa. About to watch this reaction. Super pumped to watch you guys watch this

[@SLAPERZZ1]

Been waiting a long time for this one! 🙏

[@Tater4200]

One of my favorite movies of all time

[@ghostmkc4045]

OH snap!!! We've come to candyland now!! One of tarantinos wildest and most iconic films.

[@wildtime845]

46:44 in that scene he didn’t mean to hit the glass which made his hand bleed but since it made the scene so much more authentic it was kept in

[@totalcontrol154]

FYI: That is Jamie's personal horse.

[@chucks9205]

FYI the Spanish guy (Franco Nero) who's slave lost the fight st the club...played the ORIGINAL Django in 1966

[@sbanta22]

That’s a Carom table, the game played on it is called Carom. Played with 3 balls and a cue ball.

[@ajorngjdonaydbr]

The scene where Di caprio slams his hand down, he smashed it into a glass which actually cut his hand open for real, he stayed in character and they kept that version in the movie.

[@XCursedProphetX]

Hahaha 😂 That Quentin Tarantino Impression had me dying! ‘You wanna make a car chasing movie! I’ll show you how make a car chasing movie!’

[@cosmiccastawayyy3899]

Love the reactions. Y'all have the most complete reactions on KZbin.

[@TheOctobersReact]

Wow, thank you!

[@thomasbaron5367]

*FUN FACT* Leo actually cut his hand when he smashed the glass on the table And the blood he rubs in Hildi's face is actually his own blood And her reaction to Leo's blood being rubbed in her face is genuine

[@andrewdunckley]

this was a brilliant reaction,,, more laughter than the movie intended...

[@grothesk80]

Wonderful reaction! Your Tarantino journey has been great to watch!

[@beatyz2]

45:04 just calmly coming to a solution without any screaming or threats? LOL😂❤

[@GustavoCardoso95]

Cool thing about this and Hateful Eight movie is that Tarantino literally brought the MASTER of composing from the original three movies from Sergio Leoni that defined the western genre. It's like bringing your idol to work with you in your film XD I'm talking about Enio Morricone of course

[@silentassason]

This movie continues the Tarentino trend of someone gets shot in the nuts. I haven't seen the Kill Bill movies or Hollywood but I have noticed it's a common thing that happens in his movies 😂

[@AntoineRideaux-wd1zk]

Fun fact, the actor who played the guy who killed Schultz was played by the guy who played the guy Schultz killed in the beginning of the movie

[@HunterRedDay]

James remar

[@charcoalberries819]

17:37 never seen/heard Mr. Oct laugh so hard at a scene of a Tarantino movie as much as that one lol 😂

[@aayzajm]

Great reaction. hope you caught just before 58:09 Django yells out ‘D’Argtnaan’ because he’s there to avenge his death by the dog handlers

[@silentassason]

Immediately needed to click. One of my favorite all time movies. Can't wait to see y'alls reaction to it

[@KyleYoung-b2q]

Should be considered one of the best western movies ever tbh

[@MortimerFolchert]

It's so cool that you're on a Tarantino Binge, but their is a "secret" Tarantino Movie. It's called "Sukiyaki Western Django" and was directed by Takashi Miike, basically the japanese Quentin Tarantino. Miike is a good friend and inspiration for Tarantino and Tarantino's role in "Sukiyaki Western Django" inspired Tarantino to make "Django Unchained & Hateful 8" which would be your next one I guess. So I'd recommend doing this one first between Django Unchained and Hateful 8. :D It's about an old japanese Folk Story but told in the setting of a Spaghetti Western. :) You'll probably like it, since you like all of Tarantino so far. :D Greetings from Germany

[@brentwestfall8653]

Awesome reference to Twisted Metal lol… The original Twisted Metal on PlayStation 1 back in the day was a classic awesome game I remember playing that like everyday all day when it first came out!!

[@LJsReactions]

The marshal in the beginning is the same actor who played Bo Duke in dukes of hazard

[@rebeccablackburn9487]

Luke Duke Actually

[@LJsReactions]

@@rebeccablackburn9487 lol my bad been a while le lol

[@LJsReactions]

@@rebeccablackburn9487 lol my bad its been a while lol

[@chucks9205]

The sheriff in Kill Bill is also the Mexican Pimp in Kill Bill 2

[@jerrywalters8885]

Couple neat facts. Yes Leo actually hurt his hand slapping the table and cut his hand on the broken glass but stayed in character. And the guy at the bar who asked spelling of his name was original actor in the 60s who played Django in a TV series. Another great modern western also including a young Leo is THE QUICK AND THE DEAD with Sharon Stone and one of last roles for Gene Hackman. Hopebyoi checknit out as need more people to see this gem of a movie

[@victore6242]

When Dynamite sits for a long time in a hot place at sweats nitroglycerin. And becomes very unstable

[@kingkev6407]

My favorite reactors of the whole world!!!!!!!!! I love y’all so much!!!!!!!! Keep going yall please!!!! I love y’all!!!!!

[@05hundredlive]

Big Daddy is Don Johnson from the 80s show Miami Vice ( the played Crockett)

[@Fairygrl_TW]

I agree one of Tarantino's very best work. Such an amazing film. The hot box is horrifying to me. When Leo/Calvin breaks glass hitting the table with his fist, the bleeding is real. Leo and Director thought it fit the scene, so played it out. Such a fun watch, take care, Peace

[@latreasemcclary9151]

The scene where Miss Laura is snatched back when she gets shot is a nod to the old time westerns where women's dead bodies were not seen on camera. They were killed but never shown in the scene

[@brandonmartin08]

There was a shot of Broomhilda’s feet when Django comes back to save her 👍

[@cshubs]

Y'all might be thinking of Jerry Miculek. He's a world champion quick draw. Astoundingly quick.

[@believeume122]

Leo's performance was Soo good in this!

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thanks, Tony! Thanks, Brooke! 🤠 They were playing carom billiards. It's not always played on a square table, but that's one of the options... particularly in 19th century France.

[@brentwestfall8653]

If you google it says $75 in 1898 is like $3800 today so you can only imagine what $12,000 back then would be.

[@markmcgee2417]

After you finish Tarantino I highly recommend Spike Lee. A brilliant filmmaker who "found" many actors who appear in Tarantino films and Coen Brothers films. Also you should check out the Coen Brothers films.

[@believeume122]

Django and The hateful eight are by favorites from Tarantino! I'm waiting on you guys to watch the show Dark! You guys are really great with small details so it's perfect for this channel.

[@Beeza-om9js]

"Timothy Shallot or whatever..." 😂😂😂

[@GustavoCardoso95]

Another great october reaction.

[@TheTalentTJRichter]

Samuel L Jackson had is best roles in Tarantino movies in this order for me. 1. Jules - Pulp Fiction 2. Stephen - Django 3. Marquis Warren - Hateful Eight 4. Ordell - Jackie Brown 5. Rufus - Kill Bill 6. Narrator - Inglorious Basterds

[@bigb2494]

$7500 in 1861 is roughly $264,000 today

[@brazzledazzle-o9w]

I love the lady running out in the end with the black and white dress. Looks like an ostrich running hahaha

[@Hebrew_Israelite_Young_jedi]

This was a great reaction ✌🏽🙏🏽💪🏽💯

[@pauldourlet]

I think Kill Bill 1, The Hateful 8 and Once upon a time in Hollywood rate as among his best work. The movie that made Tarantino possible was The Wild Bunch (1969) a brutal western that changed movie violence

[@electronicgrandpa7974]

He founded a water company.....

[@Zbeast5972]

Noo is that spot that Django and Dr. Shultz walked into during the winter before they got to Mississippi the same spot from the Hateful Eight where the movie took place?

[@LaertesStrongCoffee]

Leo accidentally got hurt by the glass in that scene and he was bleeding for real if I'm not mistaken and they kept it in the movie. Terrifying.

[@TheShadow8771]

My favorite Tarantino movie favorite Jamie Foxx movie and just one of my favorite movies in general. It is a serious movie Tarantino just added comedic moments because of how touchy the subject of Slavery is so that way the whole movie is just Dark and cruel

[@laurenherda2415]

Definitely my favorite Tarantino film

[@05hundredlive]

phrenology, the study of the conformation of the skull as indicative of mental faculties and traits of character, especially according to the hypotheses of Franz Joseph Gall (1758-1828), a German doctor, and such 19th-century adherents as Johann Kaspar Spurzheim (1776-1832) and George Combe (1788-1858).Dec 14, 2023

[@Casey-u2x]

I am 2/3 of the way through the movie reaction, I had to leave another comment, because I'm at the dinner table scene! This cast is phenomenal, Quentin Tarantino told Jamie Foxx I want you to play your best slave, and he took that as an actual challenging journey! Leonardo DiCaprio was nervous about saying the n-word so much, and Samuel L said to him in between shots it's just another Tuesday mother F**, Leo would come in the next day and not say a word to anyone, and then shine when the cameras were rolling. Of course Dr Schultz is Christoph waltz the same actor from inglorious who played the SS officer Hans Landa. Kerry Washington is great, Quinton made his small cameo, Sam L is incredible, but the dinner table scene with Leonardo DiCaprio is hands down one of the greatest scenes I've ever seen in my life with any movie, he actually cut his hand when he slammed down on the table, my mind was blown and I have watched this movie I cannot tell you countless times! I'm glad y'all got to go on this journey, can't wait for (The Hateful Eight) reaction! I think it's Samuel's best, we get to see our boy Walton Goggins again, he is phenomenal, Jennifer Jason Leigh is amazing, Kurt Russell's character is my favorite! And there's our surprise character which I know y'all know who I'm talking about! I'm very excited, thank you guys so much for this Tarantino journey! y'all are the best, looking forward to the last two! Again HOLLYWOOD is my favorite, extremely excited for that one, y'all take care!!! Y'all's reactions are 🔥🔥🔥

[@kpwholaughs1470]

Fun fact back in old westerns shows and movies they didn't show women getting shot or hurt like that so the lady getting shot out of frame was a reference to that

[@05hundredlive]

I think it’s weird that Christoph Waltz played a German in Django Unchained and he played a German in Inglorious Bastards

[@sarahjessica695]

She’s so cute I love her smile

[@mikefetterman6782]

BEFORE Reservoir Dogs, Tarantino wrote TRUE ROMANCE (released 1993) It is another classic Tarantino film. Christopher Walken, Dennis Hopper, Paticia Arquette, Christian Slater, Brad Pitt, Val Kilmer........all big name actors.

[@mikefetterman6782]

The tooth on the roof of the buggy, is a hidden tribute to Doc Holiday, a real western gunslinger, gambler, and all around good guy. Doc got his name because he started out as a dentist.

[@mikefetterman6782]

That's not Stan Lee, it is BRUCE DERN. A famed actor from the 1900s. His daughter is more famous with the new generation as LAURA DERN (Jurassic Park, Star Wars latest trilogy)

[@mikefetterman6782]

"big daddy" (Don Johnson) also, a revered actor for many decades in hits on television like Nash Bridges (with Cheech Marin as his partner) and MIAMI VICE in the 80s.

$12,000 in 1850 is just a bit less than a half million dollars now. A large offer.

[@billyolson1596]

You guys are awesome 👍

[@CrazeeAdam]

Christoph Waltz played a bad German and now he's playing a good one!! Leo also arguably has the best performance here. As he had a mighty hard one to pull off. To be a horrible man while still being pretty charasmatic in a weird way. Also i think i would describe Tarentino's movies as "live action Anime". That's the only way I can describe them.

[@mandrintang1980]

Oh snap, we getting unchained in the membrane

Leos hand bleeding is real blood. he just kept going.
