Tarantino, Vol. 9: The Hateful Eight. Three months ago, word leaked that Quentin Tarantino was developing a new Star Trek film with J.J. Abrams producing. Some people were not happy. Others were overjoyed. But a lot can happen in three months. Last week, information was revealed about a car crash on the set of Tarantino's Kill Bill, which many feel he was largely responsible for. Ever since, the questions on everyone's minds are "How did this happen?" "Is Tarantino at fault?" "Should he even be allowed to direct Star Trek?" In this episode of Stage Nine, hosts Mike Schindler and John Mills discuss the recent revelations regarding Tarantino, and question how that changes the way his work is perceived. We also conclude our series with Tarantino's latest film, The Hateful Eight. In news, we discuss the surprise release of the new Abrams production, The Cloverfield Paradox. And stay tuned to the end for a special announcement.

Tarantino, Vol. 7: Inglourious Basterds. While J.J. Abrams was relaunching the Star Trek franchise in 2009, Quentin Tarantino was in his own corner of the movie world making Inglourious Basterds.
