I once heard that quentin tarantino, who i obviously love and think is a genius, says that there's no such thing as guilty pleasure, there's only pleasures. and i do love that idea, because i do think that there's a pretentiousness when people make a list of their favorite things. i like to live a life where i don't think of my pleasures as guilty pleasures.

I saw quentin tarantino's 'django unchained,' and you could say a lot of things against it, but it was incredible fun. i don't like blood and gore and i am very squeamish about violence, but tarantino's violence is actually funny.
Fun Django Blood
Quentin [tarantino] called me and said: "yeah, you've got to be in my movie. you've got to be in death proof." but he made me audition. i was like: "dude, i don't even want to do this..." so i left the casting of hostel: part ii to drive to venice, where quentin was holding his casting, and the person ahead of me was derek richardson from hostel 1 and he was like: "dude, what are you doing here?" i said: "don't ask!"
Venice Want Casting
Quentin tarantino is a hip-hop artist. i told him, "you're hip-hop!" you keep seeing surprises, and a clip here and there, because quentin is hip-hop. a hip-hop artist will drop a single, leak something over here, and drop something over there 'cause he knows it's hot. he's on the spot with the way he does things.
Artist Hip Hop Hot
Quentin's [tarantino] thing is "i don't want anybody to get up until they have to. so, because he really wants things to come organically. and he may have specific things like "no, this ... i want you to be here so that when he punches you, it falls. i want that action to happen here." but you feel like it does, all the blocking does come from an organic response to the material.
Block Fall Doe
Lenten practices of giving up pleasures are good reminders that the purpose of life is not pleasure. the purpose of life is to attain to perfect life, all truth and undying ecstatic love - which is the definition of god. in pursuing that goal we find happiness. pleasure is not the purpose of anything; pleasure is a by-product resulting from doing something that is good. one of the best ways to get happiness and pleasure out of life is to ask ourselves, 'how can i please god?' and, 'why am i not better?' it is the pleasure-seeker who is bored, for all pleasures diminish with repetition.
Giving Up Practice Perfect
I like the way quentin tarantino creates a scene using a series of close-ups or showing very cool images of a person or people walking on some ordinary street in slow motion. i wish i could achieve that kind of slow-motion effect in manga, but it's rather difficult to draw; the only things we can play with are tones of black and white.

Morality is a code of black and white. when and if men attempt a compromise, it is obvious which side will necessarily lose and which will necessarily profit.

Whatever it takes to get the image to reach that level is what that photographer needs to do. and for me, i just have such a love of the tactile and sensuous quality of a black and white silver gelatin print.
