I think The Hateful Eight is my favorite Tarantino film. I guess I find some flaws in it but for me at the end of the day, it's his best script and his best directing. I'm in love with it.
I constantly see it thrown out with Death Proof as a minor film of his recently and I can't disagree more.
Of course Pulp Fiction will always be Pulp Fiction and its impact will never be replicated. But only on my personal enjoyment, H8 is the one.

I love Hateful Eight but it's my least favourite of his. Dialogue always on point but if there ever was a script of his that needed a trim, it's H8. Also, I think the blood/violence at the end (like Django) doesn't really match the rest of the film IMO. There's 90's realistic QT violence then there's Kill Bill violence. His last two westerns for some strange reason falls in line with his Kill Bill violence and I'm still stumped about that.
