Quentin Tarantino is known for speaking his mind, and this time his target is quite unexpected. According to the iconic director, Batman is “not a very interesting character.” However, he does come to the defense of a Western that was initially deemed a disaster upon its release.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

Quentin Tarantino has always been forthright with his opinions, never sugarcoating his thoughts \u2013 even when they go against the grain. In a 2013 interview with the magazine Les Inrockuptibles<\/i>, later reported by Variety<\/span>, the director of Pulp Fiction shared his views on Batman as well as a heavily criticized blockbuster: Lone Ranger, Naissance d\u2019un h\u00e9ros.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Why Tarantino Isn’t Interested in Batman<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

At the time when Ben Affleck being cast as the Dark Knight was a hot topic, Tarantino admitted he wasn’t particularly concerned about it. His reason? He simply finds Batman to be a character lacking enough intrigue to engage an actor fully.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI must admit I don\u2019t really have an opinion<\/i>,\u201d he said regarding Affleck’s casting as Batman. \u201cWhy? Because Batman is not a very interesting character. Not for any actor. There\u2019s just not a lot to work with. I think Michael Keaton did it perfectly, and I wish Ben Affleck luck. But you know who would have been an amazing Batman? Alec Baldwin back in the ’80s.<\/i>\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Despite his harsh critique, the filmmaker didn’t hesitate to offer his encouragement to Ben Affleck<\/span>, while praising Michael Keaton’s portrayal, which he views as definitive. Surprisingly, he could easily envision Alec Baldwin in the role, during a time when such casting would have seemed unlikely.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tarantino Defends a Hollywood Flop<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Batman isn’t the only topic on which the director has strong opinions. Quentin Tarantino<\/span> also countered critics regarding Lone Ranger, Naissance d\u2019un h\u00e9ros<\/span> directed by Gore Verbinski. Released in 2013 to a lukewarm public reception and considered a commercial failure, this Western starring Johnny Depp is nevertheless one of the filmmaker’s favorite movies of that year.<\/p>\n

Acknowledging some flaws in its structure, Tarantino believes certain scenes in the film are highly commendable.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cThe first forty-five minutes are excellent<\/i>,\u201d Tarantino commented about the 3D Western, \u201c\u2026the next forty-five are a bit dull. It was a bad idea to split the villains into two groups; it takes ages to explain and nobody cares. Then comes the train scene \u2013 incredible! When I saw it, I kept thinking, ‘Really? This is the movie everyone says is bad? Seriously?’<\/i>\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tarantino’s Favorite Films of 2013<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

At that time, the director also revealed his personal list of the best films released in 2013. It was an eclectic mix that included independent cinema, horror, sci-fi, and comedy, with some choices that surprised many. Here\u2019s his list.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

  1. Afternoon Delight (Joey Soloway)<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  2. Before Midnight (Richard Linklater)<\/li>\n
