Episode 188 - The Hateful Eight

When it comes to aspect ratios, no film this year can measure up to the 8th film by Quentin Tarantino.  Andrew and Phil both saw the Super Panavision 70mm print of 'The Hateful Eight' and the roadshow perks were great fun.  Let's hope QT is saving cinema one film at a time.  The film itself, however, is getting decidedly mixed reviews from In the Queue.  A stagebound western featuring no one to root for and an abundance of sadism, 'TH8' offended Phil with its molasses-paced first half, and disappointed Andrew with it's hatchet-job second half.  Both critics agree that it is a must-see for Tarantino fans and a repeat viewing may ease their grievances.  But why burn another three hours of your life on a movie that offers only hate?
