  I was going to ask what it is, since I’m too lazy to look it up, but this answers sufficiently

    I figured it was about the mobile company, similar to the Blackberry movie. This makes more sense. And from the comments, it doesn’t sound terribly interesting.

  Also Tarantino. I thought it was implausible that he’d do them well, but Django and Hateful Eight were both excellent.

    Consider Django more of a Southern than a Western

      Interesting point. I guess in this context I’d call it a western set in the south or maybe a southern set during the old west.

  I was trying to remember whether the Coen brothers made Blazing Saddles. That’s the level of talent we need.

    It’s made by a Coen brother just not the ones you think. Mel Brooks’ real last name is Coen and he is the younger brother of the others. He adopted “Brooks” when he broke into directing so he wouldn’t be accused of riding his brothers coattails to fame.
