together to fire back at Quentin Tarantino after the iconic director dismissed their favorite Western drama as little more than a 'soap opera.'\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The backlash came fast and furious, with Yellowstone lovers flooding social media to defend their beloved series and call out Tarantino for his \u2018dismissive\u2019 take.<\/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 class=\"mol-para-with-font\">One critic clapped back, \u2018Is there anything that man does like besides his own work?\u2019 an another chimed in, \u2018He also loves to hear himself talk.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Yet another even took aim at Quentin\u2019s own recent Oscar-winning work, posting, \u2018In that case once upon a time in hollywood is a tv movie.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Despite the growing storm of criticism, Tarantino doubled down on his critique of the Yellowstone series during his podcast appearance<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018You are caught up in the minutia of the moment,\u2019 he argued. \u2018The 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<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018There\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.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018But 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.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">While the Yellowstone fanbase hit back, some listeners agreed with Tarantino, acknowledging that something might be missing in the long-form storytelling of modern TV.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/12\/13\/18\/93129575-14190653-image-a-4_1734114711213.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/12\/13\/18\/93129577-14190653-image-a-5_1734114713455.jpg\" alt=\"And just to drive the point home, he added, 'You don\u2019t remember it five years from now,\u201d which, naturally, set fans of the hit show on fire\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/12\/13\/18\/93129573-14190653-image-a-6_1734114718044.jpg\" alt=\"While the Yellowstone fanbase hit back, some listeners agreed with Tarantino, acknowledging that something might be missing in the long-form storytelling of modern TV\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u2018It\u2019s an interesting thought.

Wouldn\u2019t be surprised if that\u2019s what he does in real life too,\u2019 wrote one unimpressed viewer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Taylor also appeared in a pivotal role in the finale of his show Lioness on Sunday. And he had a role on the Yellowstone prequel 1883.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/12\/09\/22\/92975673-14175283-Yellowstone_fans_were_less_than_thrilled_with_the_latest_episode-a-30_1733784571869.jpg\" alt=\"Tarantino's uproar comes after Yellowstone fans were less than thrilled with the latest episode\u2019s heavy focus on Taylor Sheridan, the creator of the show who also plays horse trainer Travis Wheatley; (seen in 2021)\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Another added, \u2018As if Taylor Sheridan wasted one of the last episodes of this show by inserting himself so he could parade around with half-naked women. We could have had 8 more episodes of Kevin Costner instead of this bs #Yellowstone.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">One fan lamented, \u2018Yeah, and they\u2019ve treated the best actor on the show, @modernwest, Kevin Costner. He was willing to come back, and of course, Sheridan\u2019s ego got in the way. What a sad end for John Dutton\u2019s legacy.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Someone else quipped, \u2018Being generous on the 15 minutes \ud83d\ude42 Felt more like an hour with 25 minutes of storylines that we actually want to see.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The episode had all the subtlety of a neon sign flashing, according to another critic, as they commented, \u2018The episode was a look at me I\u2019m Taylor Sheridan. He may as well have Kevin Costner just come out of the shower at this point.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">As for the rumored feud between Taylor and Kevin, another follower chimed in, \u2018I think now we know: what caused the fall out with Costner, oh boy Sheridan wanted to be the man lol, and I sure do miss Costner editing this guy\u2019s terrible scripts.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yellowstone\u00a0fans banded together\u00a0to fire back at\u00a0Quentin Tarantino\u00a0after the iconic director dismissed their\u00a0favorite Western drama\u00a0as little more than a \u2018soap opera.\u2019 The online drama kicked off after the Pulp Fiction creator, &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"video","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[582],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11848","post","type-post","status-publish","format-video","hentry","category-yellowstone-verse","post_format-post-format-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11848","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11848"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11848\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11873,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11848\/revisions\/11873"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11848"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11848"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11848"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
