His selection for certain projects is admirable, and if the 61-year-old has been telling the truth about retiring after making 10 films, he\u2019s only got one more to go.<\/p>\n<p>Even if he steps away from movie making altogether after his next project, Tarantino will still go down as one of the best directors to ever do it. It\u2019s also likely that his opinion and vision will always be sought after, and in a recent episode of\u00a0<em>The Joe Rogan Experience<\/em>, Tarantino was asked to compare movies and modern day television.<\/p>\n<p>The American filmmaker first conceded that \u2013 as you\u2019ve probably overheard at the water-cooler \u2013 TV is pretty damn good nowadays:<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cEveryone talks about how great television is now. It\u2019s pretty good, I\u2019ve got to say. But it\u2019s still television to me. And what\u2019s the difference between television and a good movie? Because a lot of the television now has the patina of a movie. They\u2019re using cinematic language to get you caught up in it.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"inline-related-post\" class=\"mag-box

Spin-Off<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Tarantino clarified that he was talking about \u201cgood shows,\u201d and when you say that, it brings to mind programs like\u00a0<em>Breaking Bad, The Wire, Succession, The Sopranos<\/em>, and whatever other series that are often thrown around in the \u201cbest ever\u201d conversation. Quentin basically described them as \u201cshows people are compelled to watch,\u201d and admitted that there are often compelling shows, but none that reach the level of a movie.<\/p>\n<p>He ended up using Taylor Sheridan\u2019s hit western drama as an example in his argument:<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cI\u2019ll use Yellowstone. I didn\u2019t really get around to watching Yellowstone the first three years or so, and then I watched the first season and I went, \u2018Wow this is f**king great. I\u2019ve always been a big Kevin Costner fan. He\u2019s wonderful in this.\u2019\u00a0I got really caught up in the show and all of the sudden I\u2019m having a good time and I\u2019ve got a couple of seasons I haven\u2019t seen so I\u2019m watching it.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"stream-item stream-item-in-post stream-item-inline-post aligncenter\">\n<div class=\"stream-item-size\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em><strong>In the first season, I\u2019m like, \u2018This is like a big movie.\u2019 So I end up watching three seasons of it, and I watch that 1883 (spinoff) and say, \u2018Oh this is a good western show.\u2019 Then, after I\u2019ve watched two of three seasons or one season of 1883\u2026 while I\u2019m watching it, I\u2019m compelled. But at the end of the day, it\u2019s just a soap opera.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The respected director backed up his point of view by pointing out that once you get to know the characters, the back stories and all of their connection points\u2026 it just turns into a repetitive, soap-opera-like program. Tarantino also suggested that TV shows \u2013 comparative to movies \u2013 are generally forgettable.<\/p>\n<p>He wishes that more TV shows had bigger climaxes like the limited run time call for in movies:<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cYou don\u2019t remember it five years from now. You are caught up in the minutia of the moment. The difference is I\u2019ll see a good western movie and I\u2019ll remember it for the rest of my life. I\u2019ll remember this scene or that scene and it built to an emotional climax of some degree\u2026<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>There\u2019s not a payoff on this (TV) stuff. There\u2019s just more inter-connectional drama. And while I\u2019m watching it, that\u2019s good enough. But when it\u2019s over, I couldn\u2019t tell you (what happened). I can remember who the bad guy was in the first season of Yellowstone. But I don\u2019t remember any of the details of it, and I don\u2019t remember any of the bad guys for season two or season three.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Quentin Tarantino went on to say that TV, in his opinion, could more easily reach the level of cinema if they were to work towards \u201cdrop the mic\u201d moments at the end of their seasons \u2013 rather than just setting it up for the next season. And I know he might be spitting out some hot takes, but I have to agree with him on that. Then again, a TV show is naturally trying to keep people watching, and if you wrapped up a season in a nice little bow at the end, people might decide to abandon ship and never come back.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps a anthologies and mini-series like\u00a0<em>Band Of Brothers,\u00a0<\/em><em>Chernobyl,<\/em>\u00a0<em>True Detective,\u00a0<\/em>and even Taylor Sheridan\u2019s own\u00a0<em>Yellowstone\u00a0<\/em>prequel\u00a0<em>1883,\u00a0<\/em>are the happy medium?<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a delicate balance to it all really, and Tarantino talks more about that in the interview clip linked below:<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-wrap\">\n<div class=\"tie-fluid-width-video-wrapper\"><iframe title=\"Quentin Tarantino on Why He Thinks Movies Are Better Than TV Shows\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0V5HddLMtNs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If a legendary movie maker criticizes a TV show, does it make it an expert opinion or a biased opinion?
