Joe Rogan explains why Quentin Tarantino is a \u201cwizard\u201d Joe Rogan (YouTube) \/ Gage Skidmore (Wikimedia Commons)Popular podcast host Joe Rogan has hailed Quentin Tarantino as a \u201cwizard\u201d for his portrayal of violence in movies, giving him \u201cgrandfather\u201d status while chatting on the JRE with Suzanne Santo. Quentin Tarantino is dubbed to be one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. With a lengthy list of accolades under his belt, the 56-year-old has supposedly retired from directing following his tenth film. And it is his tenth (and final) movie that had Rogan singing his praises during Episode 1435 of the Joe Rogan Experience. With a reel of iconic films to his name, Rogan touched on how Tarantino\u2019s unique angle and style of filmmaking gives him \u201cgrandfather\u201d status while chatting with Santo. \u201cDid you see that Quentin Tarantino movie?\u201d Rogan asked. \u201cI did, it was incredible,\u201d Santo replied, before delving into how the plot was \u201cchilling\u201d with particular reference to the characters portrayed throughout. \u201cThose people that kill those folks \u2013 you know how the story turned out,\u201d the podcast host explained before admitting that the happier ending was \u201cway better\u201d than real-life events that actually unfolded \u2014 for obvious reasons\u2026 \u201cTarantino\u2026 He\u2019s a wizard!\u201d Rogan conceded. \u201cHe\u2019s the last guy allowed to make a movie like that. When I said that the violence was shocking, I don\u2019t mean that it was bad \u2014 I\u2019m not saying that.\u201d Joe then cited particular reference to a scene where a man resorts to violence with a woman in the film, which he argued was \u201cwild\u201d but acceptable under the premise that Tarantino is \u201cgrandfathered in.\u201d And in terms of Rogan\u2019s rationale, he claimed that \u201ceverybody has always known him for having the wildest, craziest f**king scenes\u201d from Pulp Fiction onwards in his career. Santo agreed and simply stated that \u201cit\u2019s kind of to be expected,\u201d while Rogan then went on to recall the iconic scene from Pulp Fiction where Uma Thurman is stabbed in the heart with a dose of adrenaline by John Travolta. Rogan then went on to state that \u201cno one goes deeper than Tarantino\u201d before praising him once more. \u201cThe thing is, he can still do a super, ultra-violent movie and people consider it a great art. And I think that\u2019s getting harder and harder to do.\u201d Santo interjected and said: \u201cIf anything, he\u2019s got a formula that continues to work. Yeah, I want to see bad guys get the sh*t kicked out of them \u2014 it\u2019s justice!\u201d The pair evidently showed plenty of admiration for the legendary filmmaker\u2019s work, and perhaps Rogan\u2019s label of Tarantino being a \u201cwizard\u201d will stick? He certainly is the warlock of violence in movies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
