Do you think Quentin Tarantino could have directed a James Bond movie?

NO. Simply because Tarantino doesn't have the subtlety, discipline, and (above all) Class to reign in his trashy, in-your-face, showing-off "style" that just doesn't work in something as *specialized* as a James Bond movie.

No. The film would be crushed under his ego.
Re: POLL: Tarantino as Bond director?
I guess I am unusual on this forum in that I actually like QT's movies. But whilst I would have liked to see what his CR (with Pierce) would have been like, I tend to agree that he is too much of an auteur for a franchise like Bond with a clearly defined formula. I would probably prefer it if he did his own spy movie, where he wouldn't be bound by working with other people's characters and conventions.

QT movies can be fun. Usually more thought out than most. His CR might have been too brutal and weird for even the gritty fan boy , if he made his movie . A eon movie with babzy and Mgw telling him what he can't do would have watered it down . I read QT tried to buy the rights to CR in the 1990s

If Tarantino was friends with Craig he would have directed one of the Craig Bond films.
