ripping off or paying homage - i don't think Tarantino's putting these films and Jackie Brown out thinking that nobody will spot the style elements from these genres (kungfu/blacksploitation )
if you said he was ripping off a particular movie or director but to rip off a whole genre?? wouldn't that mean nobody could make another film noir, western, horro etc?

"he's ripping off kungfu/blacksploitation flicks.."
well, remember Jackie Brown?
then remember Shaft..
see?
I still think Tarantino rocks tho..

ha, AD beat me to it..
i don't think it's ripping off either.. it's simply to obvious to be qualified a rip-off.

Who ever thought of the term 'rip off' should have their eyes gouged out with a blunt wooden spoon. And then force fed glue.
It's a crap reaction.
It's a f®©kin' cliche.
It's not even funny.

ripping off is certainly the wrong term...

ya - its not accurate term - it's how Tarantino makes his films.
He studied films like crazy before he began directing.
Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs make use of many stylistic elements from many genres - Film Noire, detective /Gangster flicks, Japanese cinema. These movies wouldn't have exists in there current format without borrowing elements from movies he studied.
It doesn't make Pulp Fiction completely unoriginal. Otherwise, every Hollywood film is unoriginal then these days (well that's almost true but anyway).

Hey sorry for the hater remark, just got the impression people weren't giving him some slack. I think with the way hollywood is pumping out crap 2 and crap the prequel, that someone such as him is trying to do something fun and exciting remeniscent of the good ole days when cinema wasn't a marketers worse nightmare.
But really give the next two flicks a try, he made a beliver out of this guy.
