Tarantino has a fetish for the N word
He obviously has a fetish/obsession for black people, and his power allows him to exploit their history. He's a weirdo. And this movie sucked.

I really did feel the word was overused. I like that Tarantino doesn't shy away from it in his films but it did feel like it peppered the script.
shareHe has a fetish for a big black daddy. Dude is a super-cuck.
share...As do most whites. Why do you think they're always whining about how black folks can say it, but they can't?
share“As do most whites.”
Do you really believe that “most whites” (your words) are just yearning to call black people that epithet??
Not “some” whites or even “a lot” of whites (it’s a big country, after all), but “most” whites.
Do you honestly believe that?
Notice that when he started taking crap for dropping N-bombs in his previous movies that he decided to start making movies where he could drop the N-bombs while being able to claim that it's just a part of the times where the movie was set?
A coward hides behind freedom. A brave person stands in front of it & defends it for others.
Ha ha, yeah. I'm convinced that's why he's moved on to the western genre.
Seize the moment, 'cause tomorrow you might be dead.
Love his movies but Yeah I always wondered why he had to be Extra with the N word in his movies...Take Pulp Fiction for instance..He just doesn't create a character who is casually racist with the use of the N word, He inserts himself into a role of a character who is casually racist..To make us think that there is literally white men that go around being friends with black men and just casually use the N word in front of them like it's no big deal. I am willing to bet that Sam Jackson wanted to slap the white off Quentin..But had to shut that mouth because he wanted/needed that $$$.
shareKeep in mind that the famous Agatha Christie novel "Ten Little Indians" originally went into print as "Ten Little N's". Now, even "Ten Little Indians" is not PC and the book usually goes out as "And Then There Were None."
I recall hearing the "n" word in the 60's and 70's and it started to have a shock effect then. The people saying it were pretty coarse.
But on the other hand, there is something pretty key about the "N" word that gets missed sometimes, uncomfortable though it may be:
It can be funny.
Richard Pryor, a black comedian, had a comedy album called "That' (n word's) Crazy." And another called "Bicenntennial (N word.)"
Blazing Saddles, partially written BY Richard Pryo,r had several jokes based on the "N" word, as in:
"The Sheriff is a n!"
(What did he say?)
"He said the sheriff is NEAR."
Silver Streak, in which Richard Pryor stars, has a scene where he acts like a scaredy-cat waiter until the white villain calls him a "N word -- and then Pryor pulls a gun on the villain and says "You call me that again, I'm gonna smack the white off your face!"
In all of the above instances, people laughed.
And perhaps that's the deal: a black man uses the word for comic effect, he can get away with it.
Everybody else: no.
But the word does have its humorous uses and i think QT knows that , too. I believe he has given the word far more to his black actors than to his white ones, to use, and again for comic effect, as when Chris Tucker tells Samuel L. Jackson in Jackie Brown -- about having to get in a car trunk to hide -- "You catch an "N" offguard with this shit." Funny.
I noticed the same thing. He said it a lot more than he needed to. And the whole time with that stupid look on his face that seemed to say look what I can get away with here.
shareLots of people tend to bow down when they are being patronized by so-called moral guardians. But some people Don't and react the other way by multiplying the allegedly unacceptable behavior. Tarantino just reacted the second way.
The "n" word can be used for many legitimate Reasons in a movie and reacting like kitties evertyime we hear it is Simply excessive.
