My feed has been filled with rpg geeks shitting on him. I do not know why. I assume he said something nasty, or did something worse than his usual disgusting foot fetish.

Why do I see Tarantino drama constantly? What triggered it?

    If it’s a (usually sexual) thing that would normally require consent (like any other fetish), and Tarantino is using his power as director to persuade women actors to show their feet (e.g. Margaret Qualley), then yes, absolutely it is hurting someone and he is using his power to appease his fetish, which is gross. The fetish itself is not gross, idgaf if someone’s into feet, but it’s not okay to force others into your fetish.

      Tarantino is using his power as director to persuade women actors to show their feet

      OK, what’s going on here? Isn’t being a director a part of art and expression, so expressing “here’s a pair of women’s feet, that shit turns me on” a part of art?

      The actresses can see the script, they know it’s Quentin Tarantino, it’s like the cat looking in box meme. What did they expect, no taking video of your feet for the worlds biggest foot fetishist?

      It’s abuse of power when he does that shit unexpectedly behind the scenes.

      If you want to be mad at Tarantino for abusing an actor, try the car stunt with Uma Thurman

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uma_Thurman#Kill_Bill_car_crash

      In the same 2018 New York Times interview, Thurman described how she had been in a serious car accident back in 2003 on the set of Kill Bill, because Tarantino had insisted she perform her own driving stunts.[182] Two weeks after the crash, she tried to see footage of the incident. Thurman stated that Miramax would only agree to show her the footage if she signed a contract “releasing them of any consequences of my future pain and suffering”, which she refused.[182] As a result of the crash, she sustained permanent injuries to her neck and knees.[182] Tarantino later called this incident “the biggest regret of his life”.[183] Thurman later clarified on Instagram that Tarantino had apologized to her for the incident and that she has since forgiven him,[184][185] being open to working with him again.[186]
