- Easily a top 5 Tarantino film for me, Django Unchained was just a fun all around movie even though so many scenes were cut out of the final version!
Hope you enjoy the video gimme a like and subscribe if you did, have a great day everyone! - Zábava
Damn Tarantino really dodged a bullet by Will Smith turning down the role. Movie would not have been half has good with him as Django.
Will Smith always finds a way to shoehorn in something stupid like in Independence Day "I have to get me one of these," Suicide Squad " I'm going to need you to white people that thing if she doesn't have the grades", and more. Can't he just deliver the line minus the shuck and jive B S?
*Stephen is Uncle Ruckus*
*Django Is Unchained*
It would've been goofy
Agreed!!!
I’m glad Jamie Foxx played Django and not Will Smith. Jamie Foxx was incredible and had great synergy with Christoph Waltz, they were a dynamic duo
No hate to will but he over acts if u know what I mean
Idris and Micheal would've been great also
Cuz will smith slaps people
@@rogeliofelix13 bruh you smoking mothballs Jamie played it 💯
Will Smith would slap the shit outta homies.
Schultz's part in the movie was absolutely brilliant & was my favorite part about the whole thing. The way he helped Django throughout the movie & the way he almost looked up to him like a son was so heartwarming for me. I am so glad they wrote the character that way.
yeah few people know that germany was the leader of science and moral in that time up to ww2, people never take that into account and its also why so many was not too worried about the nazis pre war as germans were the good guys. and why it was so un fathomable what happened happened
Yes, I loved the character of Dr. Schultz... I just wish they didn't kill him off in the movie.
Me too, Waltz was prefect.
The story line is great, but the acting in this movie is just absolutely phenomenal.
I feel the success of the Django character was that he was a strong, silent type who only spoke when absolutely necessary. Will Smith in this role would not have been a good fit because I'm sure he would have wanted rewrites to give him more dialogue and humorous quips. Casting was perfect. Jamie nailed it.
I disagree, although I do believe Jamie Foxx was a better fit, I also think Will Smith would have also been a good fit for the role. Will Smith can act very much like the Django you have described, some evidence is the movie 'I Am Legend'.
Yeah i just dont see Smith doing what Fox did with the role.
Spot on. Will Smith might had become subordinate Christoph Waltz (given the plot and the type of individual Will seems to be, not saying he's a bad actor) but Jamie Foxx with his outstanding performance did not dwell around in Christophś shadow - if any the contrary. The characteristics you mentioned made this possible where Django's reserved personality against Schultz's rather eccentric fell out brilliant.
I'm tired of Will Smith. He needed to make I Am Legend be his finality.
Every movie and other moments in the spotlight have just been a fall from grace for Will Smith.
He would have had to overcome his poor performance in Wild Wild West. Django didn't impress me: it was like a stretched-out version of the horrible theater scene in Inqlorious Basterds. I think Jamie Foxx did well but Will Smith really did dodge the bullet.
I want nothing more than a 4 hour cut of this movie
Damn imagine that, probably one of my favorite movies
Movie was already dragging at 30 minutes mark where he was captured, starting to run out of steam, what the hell is there more you need to watch.
In that case just watch the movie twice
I'd watch a 50 hour directors mega cut
@@zZiL341yRj736 but you’re here.
Christoph waltz is one of my favorite actors. I believe he is underrated as well. He has his own swag and it’s masculine and beautiful all together. He’s art.
As a masterful magician QT is I’m surprised he wanted Will to play Django. Will acts with a sort of goofy over confident humour that wouldn’t have worked. Jamie absolutely nailed the role, 10/10, unbeatable. And Kerry Washington - mind blowing performance. The entire cast put on the performance of a lifetime that had me in awe of the power of acting🤘
Who else is pleasantly surprised that Will Smith didn’t get the role as Django. I don’t think anyone could have killed it as well as Jamie Foxx.
If you need a character who tries to hide the fact that he is on the verge of tears by using comedy and/or anger and who also feels like all those around him dont share his moral compass, so therefore uses his coolness to surreptitiously enact it, then Will Smith is your man.
Wouldn't be the Same movie if Will Smith was in it.
Foxx, definitely is the definition of this movie. It would never have been the same.
Just here to highlight I hated Will Smith before it was cool.
Michael K. Williams would have killed it
Jamie Foxx is from my hometown in Terrell, Texas. He competed and worked professionally at rodeos. He holds some of the top rodeo titles and was inducted to the Texas Rodeo Hall of Fame in Ft. Worth.
Well i'll be damned.
I've never heard this - I find this hard to believe - how come noone has mentioned this
That is cool to know!
@@notme3686 what exactly does a comment like that add to the conversation?
@@waynehoffman456
Because of affirmative action no one knows if someone was actually good or not. Saying this guy was inducted into the Texas hall of fame means nothing if it could've been given to him based on his race. We don't know. Even if you go back and look at his scores maybe the judges were just being easy on him. You and I don't know and it makes his entry totally meaningless
I’m convinced that is Tarantino’s favorite line because of Leo’s performance and sacrifice in that scene (the sacrifice being, him being able to hold character even when he truly shattered glass into his own hand when smashing the table)
Let's be real Di caprio and foxx along with the rest of the cast just was perfect they really brought this movie to life!!
I was told by a friend of Zoe's the reason for all the cuts and delays and walk offs in shooting was Leonardo DiCaprio was slaying improv so hard that Tarantino just wouldn't stop extending those shooting days. It is what is is. No denying something special happened in the DiCaprio Tarantino chemistry.
I read the same thing. I remember watching the movie and knew something good was going to happen with that character but it never came. I'm sure it would have been an awesome addition to the movie
I mean, DiCaprio's best role is hands down Once Upon a Time. So i can see it. His trailer scene was also improv.
You missed an important one: Django’s outfits changed throughout the movie progressively to end in him in a burgundy coat, where he famously told Samuel Jackson’s character “Steven, how you like me, man? You know for a while, I didn’t know Burgundy was my color…”. The significance of that line is that Django was never allowed to pick his clothes so he didn’t know what matched with his complexion.. but going deeper, he was never allowed to make his own decisions and take charge of his life, so he didn’t know his true purpose. All the changes in outfits are symbolic of his search for his true self/identity and purpose. So when he told Steven he didn’t know burgundy was his color while Steven is wearing a white shirt, it’s a snub at Steven who is a black man for not knowing his color isn’t white.
He was allowed to pick his clothes when he was with Dr Schultz he picked the blue suit
you missed the part where I said “all the changes in outfits are symbolic of his search for his true identity”. That part was clearly in reference to the time he was with Dr Schultz. In other words, once he was allowed to pick out his own clothes he went through a journey to find what best “suits” him. But before that he didn’t know because he didn’t have the freedom to do explore that. Hope that helps
Nice
👏
What movie did u watch. Shultz gave him complete control of his clothes!?.. How did so many people like your dumbass comment. You cant change what u say in a second comment and act like thats what u meant all along. Either way it's a stupid comment
I’m glad he says that the first Django-Stephen interaction is pure comedy, it is. I laughed so hard during that scene.
Everything about this movie was amazing on another level..... even the soundtrack.....again; on another level.
I believe this movie is definitely underrated. It had the perfect music for the mood, great acting, over the top violence and it gave slavery a middle finger. What's not to love about this film?! This movie is definitely on my top 3 list.
Where is a Tarantino movie which was well received by critics and viewers, had a big box office and is one of the most popular movies of its year underrated?
It's literally on top of most movie enthusiast's list and the revenues quadrupled the budget (426M$/100M$) ... how exactly is that underrated ?
@@iCortex1 literally my exact thoughts 😂
Sorry not underrated. This movie is amazing and everyone knows it.
Underrated? This movie is all people talked about for months and months after it came out.
Give a Oscar to Samuel L Jackson. His scream of Calvin deserve it
😂
Yeah that was disgusting .
LMFAO you are so right
Yea it’s him in real life that’s why
Yessssss
Samuel's character needed to die and forever burn in Hell. With Candie
I still think its absolutely criminal that Leo didn't win an Oscar for this movie. He's much better here than in The Revenant.
Leo NEVER fails...... I can understand why he had a problem saying racial slurs because that's not his true character but Quentin pushed him to the point of giving literally a POWERHOUSE performance and this rings true about naturally cool actors/actresses: they usually play villainous roles the best because their true nature is far from the character themselves. I'm sure Leo took a much needed mental and spiritual rest after the filming was done. Overall, BRILLIANT masterpiece!
Should have gotten an Oscar a long time ago, for this or 'The Revenant'. That he hasn't is a shame.
That's the era.
Jamie Foxx, Leonardo DiCaprio and Christoph Waltz all bringing their A Game.
That is the recipe for a great movie!
*Django Is Unchained*
And Kerry Washington and Samuel l Jackson
And Don Johnson
How can you not mention Stephens subterfuge the entire movie. At the end he drops his cane, stands strait, and WALKS without issue showing he never needed the cane. It was always to subvert Calvin's objections to his idea, and you see this a tiny bit when Stephen calls Calvin in the kitchen to tell him about the true scheme, he drops the accent. Brilliant character. Go rewatch with this in mind. And just know Calvin writes the checks but Stephen calls the shots.
Actually Calvin's name is on the check but Steven also signs the checks and more. When they arrive at Candy Land you see the check with Calvin Candie name but you see Steven hand signing it
*Stephen is Uncle Ruckus*
Yes, Calvin dud not even realize he was being manipulated by Stephen.
Absolutely. Sadly some house slaves had that type of influence..Most used it for good to prevent further torture, death, etc..
"I miss you like I misses a rock in my shoe" wanna fake a limp in a long con? Put a rock in your shoe so you never forget
That bit about Leo smashing the glass will always get me. As good an actor as he is, I don’t think the rage in Candie’s voice would nearly be as good as it was had that accident not happened.
He was picking real glass from his wound and that's real blood he smears on Kerry Washington. It's why she recoils in very real horror. That one mishap made the scene in so many ways.
@@andrewince8824by then it would’ve been prop blood. There’s many takes in that scene
@@andrewince8824 It's not real blood. The SAG would absolutely have massacred everyone on set. And DiCaprio isn't dumb enough or evil enough to actually do that to another actor. That's absurd to even consider.
DiCaprio delivered the most shocking performance of any actor in any movie I have ever seen. All of the stars in this movie were on top of their game.
My uncle was a grip on the set of Django and said that Tarantino and DiCaprio had countless arguments about not wanting to say slurs as written and it ruined whole days of shooting.
Samuel L Jackson pulling DiCaprio aside and telling him to stop being a b*tch and to just do the scene was honestly such a bro move toward Tarantino.
I mean....as a white dude around hundreds of colored people on a movie set, I'd be VERY uncomfortable saying those slurs let alone in a very angry and vindictive tone. What Samuel did is something that's 100% underrated, he had to do those lines properly or that movie would've flopped hard. This movie is my favorite by fuckin far, I can't wait till Tarantino makes another film, hopefully it'll be a sequel
@@Thunderalpacka223 "As a White guy surrounded by "Colored" people on a movie set" you'd feel "Nervous"? Referring to African Americans as "Colored" is your first issue. Are we still in 1890-1970?? Your point is valid, however, your messaging and references is an acquired taste.
@@Thunderalpacka223 we don't like being called colored
@@Thunderalpacka223 the fuck did you just say ??
@@JP_IN_TX not trying to be rude but what is the correct way. i used to say just black like i would say white or Asian but idk if that's offensive
One of my favorite movies of all time. Thought provoking, disturbing and victorious in the end. A true masterpiece.
these videos are great, Good job. the extra information over the story and characters is very informing.
That was extremely entertaining and very informative. Thanks. I could watch Django on a loop. It’s a fantastic movie and Tarantino is one of a kind. He’ll be missed.
Kerry Washington is underrated gold. Devastatingly beautiful, talented woman.
Kerry.
There are actual photos of cowboys, First Nation folks and various people in the Western United States wearing sunglasses before this movie is set to take place and on into that era. They were actually invented in the 12th century by the Chinese and existed, they just weren't readily available but they were here.
They werent sunglasses, they were smoked quartz. Sunglasses werent invented until 1929. Any other eyewear prior was just straight up quartz
@@punklyrics1 okay but they looked like sunglasses, so
@@ejvollkrassalter plantain looks like a banana.
@@punklyrics1 That's not entirely true. Smoky quartz lenses were used from the 1200's but tinted glass lenses were first made in the 1700's. My grandfather was an optometrist and had some from the 1800's in his collection. They're dark, so they do improve acquity somewhat in bright light, but they only block UV light slightly better than plain glass. Tinted lenses which completely block UV were invented by Foster-Grant in 1929.
@@punklyrics1Since when are sunglasses defined by the material theyre made of and not the function they serve? Them being made of quartz doesnt change the fact that they are glasses made to block the sun……
I saw both Django and Inglorious btd on successive days on ott . I became a great fan of Christopher Waltz immediately His pronunciation is very good not to forget those probing eyes in Ing
My absolute FAVORITE movie. That ending is just sooo incredibly badass!
I think Leonardo DiCaprio played the character really well in this movie, he played nasty really well, and he usually doesn't play nasty character. I think Leonardo DiCaprio deserved supporting actor Oscar for playing that character Calvin in this movie Django unchained.
Over the years, i read endless comments claiming Dicaprio is a racist. They only mentioned this role as "proof". It amazes me how its even possible for somebody to be that F'n stupid. I will never get it !
Ann O Grady
You forgot about King Louis 1998.
Wolf of wall Street, he was robbed, he should have got Oscar for wolf of wall Street,
He played a bad guy very well in The Man in the Iron Mask, as well as a good guy. He played twins and each one had their own characteristics. It’s one my favorite films.
I enjoy learning these extra details about the movie. It’s hard to watch some of the brutal scenes of slavery, however it’s important to show how wrong it was as well. I consider Django the main character, if Schulz was truly the main character then the movie would have ended much sooner. The story is Django’s story, he’s the one who ultimately triumphs in the end.
I always felt like Schultz had his story already, off-screen. Wife is passed, has thousands of dollars in Slavery America with no plantation, his dorky little tooth wagon and his skill with guns and so much more.
*Django Is Unchained*
How was it brutal same types of thing happens till this day
It is called “D’Jango Unchained”, not “Schulz Unchains”.
@@rambojohnj.6117 exactly my point.
“ he broke his pelvis, luckily it wasn’t too bad”
LMFAO bro he broke a bone that hurts man 😂
Inviting the original Django actor back is awesome
Django Unchained is so great. Its one of my all time favourite films.
You know I've watched this movie at least a half dozen times and never once realized that James Remar played both those roles.... wow.
and Tom Salvini plays one of the trackers whose dogs killed that one slave.
I noticed that the very first time I saw it and was so confused.. Like didn't he get blown away already what the hell is this? Lmao My man resurrected with the mean mustache 😂😂😂
Which roles did he play? Was he Candie's bodyguard, the guy in the bowler hat?
That's crazy I loved the turtle shell table top lines 2. He said it with such a unique fullness. Definately a level of asmr in it.
I love these interesting facts stuff it’s great ! Keep up the good work.
I just watched Django Unchained about 2 months ago. I’ve since watched it 4 more time. Excellent movie.
I worked as a set Grip on this movie, and I was sitting to Leo's left just out of the camera view when he did the scene at the dinner table. He just kept going, and his rage was real. We shot all of the interior Candy mansion shots on a sound stage in New Orleans.
What's a set grip?
@@dco1019 Set Grips are on the set while the cameras are working, while Rigging Grips are building new lighting and camera set ups before-hand and aren't necessarily on the active set. The Rigging Grips also install the green or blue screens for CGI shots.
Every actor in this masterpiece was at the top of their game, including QT. True artists creating priceless art. ♥️🔥♥️🔥♥️
Very very interesting analysis of the facts behind the movie. Thank you!
31: Kerry Washington learned German in order to accurately act the scene where Schultz and broomhilda speak in german
Wow
Great video, you forgot one: Dartagnan, the name of Candy’s slave shares a name with the father that betrayed him in The Man in the Iron Mask. So the killing was probably considered poetic in a twisted way
Kurt Russell yes, this is such a good movie! The actors were brilliant. The story line, splendid! Quentin thank you & well done.
Great video!
Steven and Django's beef had me laughing every damn time they were on screen. This movie will never be replicated.
Leo made Candy as amazing as he was. That was 50% Writing and 50% DiCaprio putting on a flawless performance
one of the best movies of all time. Simply because they didnt hold anything back. They showed what real history was like.
kerry washintong gave everything to her role! awesome commitment!
The scene towards the end where Django is riding horseback through the Candy plantation wrecking havoc was actually Foxx and not a double. The horse trainers said that they were scared Foxx was going to die because his horse was moving incredibly fast. Definitely my favorite practical shot in the film.
You can't just include Leo DiCaprio as just one of the other actors... he was huge reason why this movie is so great! Either way I appreciate the video
The “turtle shell table top” is the peak of a truly wonderful preformence
There was 46 years between the Django movies and Franco Niro looks like he aged 5 years, absolutely crazy genetics. He was 70 in Django Unchained and I wouldn't flinch if someone said he was like 48.
Thank God Jamie Fox got this role instead of Will Smith. But to be far, Will Smith’s point about wanting it to be a story of love more primarily than of vengeance is actually kind of an interesting one. I suppose it would’ve made things kinda boring if it had a lovey ending where somehow Calvin Candy and Steven learned a lesson. It would’ve been corny, unless somehow a brilliant ending that made it not that way was written by Tarantino, and frankly I don’t think he’s really capable of that either. Tarantino is not the right kind of guy for that, he works better with hate and ego than he can love and understanding, it’s who he is, but he is truly great at it and j love watching his stuff (usually lol). I guess it’s why he got along so well with Harvey Weinstein lol. But he does a good job of showing the nature of morally cynical and corrupt narcisstic men, probably because he is one to a greater extent than most are, but at least he channels it into cinema in a great way.
Sometimes love is about getting vengeance.
I thought the movie was about love, friendship, respect and vengeance...it was perfert!!!
@@kelsontasha it was. People just wanted to disagree with Will somehow.
Nice. Thank you! Django is one of my favorite movies. I can't count how many time I've watched it and I enjoy like it's the first time, every time.
Thank you. Liked knowing about omitted scenes.
This movie did such a great job on everything it did. Some may say it was a little over the top, but you can’t be truly satisfied seeing justice done, until you first see the depths of evil that was done first.
My favorite thing about this movie is that some of the violence might seem exaggerated, but the worst parts were completely period-correct
Yeah Leo definitely should won an Oscar here
Well done. Thank you.
I love scenes like the tabletop glass breaking, it puts a real perspective and more raw emotion you can see it in candys lawyer when he looks at the crew to cut the scene but Leonardo finished it. Amazing movie but a terrable truth
I had no idea there was a Django Zorro movie in the works. This sounds so amazing! In any other studios hands I would be so scared of this but with Tarantino I’m so optimistic. I cannot wait!!!!
appearently its dead
@@edenjung9816 😢😢😢😢
Jamie Foxx and Johnny Depp for the Zorro Django film would be sick!
Django has a great hero’s journey. I love this movie.
Wow. Great job!
1 of my all time favs. Awesome to learn bout the original django. That scene was fire
I originally didn’t want to see this movie, I’m so glad went to see it I fully enjoyed this movie
Christoph Waltz is one of my favorite actors. So too is Jamie Fox.
This is my favorite movie because of how much I loved Christoph Waltz in this. Jamie Foxx and Leonardo were amazing too.
"Kill Bill, Parts 1 and 2" were not a series. They were originally conceived and filmed as a single film. The story turned out to be so long and convoluted that Tarantino simply couldn't edit it down to one movie, so he split it in two.
Omg Sammy j is my all time fav actor. He’s is the definition of talent. Walter Goggins is a severely underrated actor imo. Dude goes total method and is truly one of the greats. Love Tarantino movies was hooked as a kid when I seen from dusk till dawn. Also started my live affair with the 68 cougar.
I detested Waltz in Inglorious Basterds but absolutely love him as a good guy in DJango. Tells you something about how great of an actor Cristoph Waltz is.
Mind blown!!!! so many references to other movies, he's a freakin genius.
I adore this movie, great film, character development, acting, casting, dialog, this movie doesn’t hold back anything and that’s why I like it! In fact now I want to rewatch it again.
Leonardo DiCaprio should of received an Oscar for his role.
I agree
*Django Is Unchained*
19:20 sounds like when you and your boys are comming up with coll crossovers and elaborating on it. And I am a 100% for this!!!
Best role I've ever seen from Leo. I know he won the Oscar for the Revenant, but this was the role he should have won for.
I love this movie so much for the simple reason that I almost never actually want the bad guy(s) to die in a movie. I'm not sad when they do, but I really never *want* them to. This movie is an exception. I just wanted Django to kill them all so badly and got the satisfaction.
gritnix........ESPECISALLY, Samuels character.
you ever seen braveheart?
Love this movie! Very well put together!
Enjoyed this
Nice video bro
I've watched this movie 5 times since it was release. Love it!
Enjoyed this video; definitely found out a lot of new info about one of my favorite movies of all time. I still think Leo should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actor or something or the like for his role because it was so different than anything he’s ever done.
That last part of your comment hits different now given Leo’s role in Killers Of The Flower Moon.
Good video. Thanks.
I am a very big spaghetti western fan. And if you watch it all up Quentin Tarantino movies, always have spaghetti western music Andy does Amazon flair to certain angles of shocks just like Sergio Leone.
Sunglasses have been around, in various forms, since prehistoric times; the sunglasses that reflected glare were first used in China during the 1100's. Mirrored frames have been around since the 1600's. Tinted lenses came in the 1700s. Sunglasses were worn by soldiers in the U.S. Civil War. The first UV sunglasses came in 1899. All before the 20th century.
For a video on facts, you should have researched that one.
Damnnnnnnnnnn
ooooooooooooooh
Would they have looked like the ones Django was wearing in those days?
@@lazer2365 Django wore UV sunglasses, which, as I stated, were invented in 1899 however, the first UV sunglasses that every day people wore wasn't invented until 1913 and weren't widely available until the 1920s. But the commentator of the video said, "sunglasses weren't invented until the 20th Century" which is an untrue statement. What he should have said was, "The type of sunglasses Django (by way of Charles Bronson from 'White Buffalo') was wearing wasn't widely available until the 20th Century." That would have been a true statement.
@@davidarnold7147 You're wrong, the 20th century is considered the 1900s, which means his statement was still correct.
Damn you give a lot of interesting information I didn't know and I appreciate you. To be honest, I cared more about the cast of actors and their scenes than I did for the overall movie. That's only logic for me because I love QT's writing and everything he has in his films that no other movie maker will touch. The violence and blood and gore. You have to accept the fact that the overall movie plot is not realistic which is the case in most films but the great actors and their talent make you forget that on most films.
U did a great job
15:17
There was actually one scene in particular that I had that very thought about. I think it was the scene that lead up to Hildy being locked in that shack, right into the mask chick looking at that photo. Two different songs, damn near back to back did feel a little jarring. That's the only example I can think of though.
Also, I'm super disappointed Tarantino won't be directing the Django/Zorro movie. It would probably be a masterpiece. I just hope it's good actually good, and does both characters the justice they deserve.
I am in the group that believes that Stephen was more vile than Calvin. 30 facts and you only 1 was focused on Samuel L.?
Smdh
Loved the movie and the chemistry between the two
Right on.. good video
Fact 31: Django's trademark Hat and Glasses made it into the 2007 Valve team-based shooter 'Team Fortress 2' in the form of the Demoman exclusive cosmetic item "Frontier Djustice".
Fun fact: Alexander Dumas father was Thomas Alexander Dumas a general in the French Army and fought along side Napoleon.
Whats that to do with Django?
@@thedjsubii Calvin candy's favorite author is Alexander Dumas
cool informaions on an even cooler movie. Thanks
btw, i didnt recognized Remar in the 2nd role.
Videos like this reaffirm my belief that DJango was is one the best movies made. Plus that Future DJango talking to original DJango has me perplexed.
The part about the hat maker is great
