Even the author thinks so. This is scary. I wish Tarantino would follow through on some of the shit he runs his mouth about.

He spent his time banging extras and sleeping in his director's chair during takes while ADs called "action". Hilarious to see how much people just don't give a shit, sometimes.

Leonard can't do endings, so even the good Leonard adaptations are doomed to third act problems (Out of Sight especially).
