With the release of Django Unchained – his spaghetti western/slavery action adventure – Quentin Tarantino has proven that no genre is safe from his creative interpretation. The director has created some of the most iconic films in cinematic history and has already veered into a number of different genres and turned them inside out for everybody to see.
Be it the crime or heist genres, revenge or martial arts, blaxploitation, war or slasher, Tarantino certainly isn’t afraid to keep audiences guessing what direction he’ll take on next. Given the details of his next project are invariably thin, let’s take a look at a 5 genres the director must try next.
5. Silent Film
With the huge success of The Artist (Michel Hazanavicius) in 2011, which picked up five Oscars and was loved by fans and critics alike, it seems there may be a new appreciation for golden era of silent films. Whilst one may argue that one of Tarantino’s trademarks is his cute, prolonged dialogue and classic interchanges between characters, he is also well known for his fantastic visual interpretations.
Some of the director’s most iconic scenes actually feature no dialogue at all, the classic scenes in Reservoir Dogs where Harvey Keitel, Steve Buscemi, Michael Madsen and company are walking in slow motion set to Little Green Bag playing in the background. A good portion of the unforgettable ear cutting scene with Michael Madsen also set to music without dialogue. Tarantino has proved he not only has a flair for intriguing dialogue but his cinematography is also fantastic.

With the exception of Animation I think those are all terrible choices.
Here is my list.
1.A Depression era Gangster film(or Noir).
2.Psychological Horror.
3.Buddy-cop.
4.Zombie Apocalypse.
5.Spy film.
If Quentin Tarantino does a movie of Animation, that would be great as you said above that he has more freedom and space to execute just about anything in an animation. With a mind of a creativity and idea’s. i would believe that would be the bests option but then there is a case of what type of animation or would audiences really pay to watch an animation? but i for one would definitely go buy it.
I agree that list is horrible,here’s my better one:#5 Time Travel. #4 Native American Exploitation (Another Western)#3 A Biopic (Specifically Stanley Kubrick) #2 Book Turned Film(Specifically The Dark Tower Series) & #1Space Drama Exploitation
He already did an adaption of a book. It was called Jackie Brown.
# 5 Time Travel #4 Native American Exploitation(Earlier Western) #3 A Biopic (Specifically Stanley Kubrick) #2 Book Turned Film (Specifically The Stephen King Dark Tower Series) #1 Space Drama Exploitation

Tarantino should definitely try his hand at a noir film (he’s mentioned a 30′s gangster film) as sci-fi/fantasy. it would be interesting to see what he comes up with the sci-fi genre.
If Tarantino worked with an anime studio like Madhouse, an animation might work.
Animation of the Vega Brothers would be amazing. It fixes the problem of age and the story lines are endless.
ya i agree with what David Allkins said. Im a big fan of japanese anime but the only way that an animated movie would work would be if he worked with Madhouse or a good studio. Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata would never work with QT. Satoshi Kon would be perfect but he recently died and Mamoro Hasoda’s art style is too clean and feminine.
Shinichirô Watanabe the guy who made samurai champloo and cowboy bebop would be the my pick for an animation director to work with QT though.
Shinichirô Watanabe would be my pick too
I’d love to see an animated Kill Bill Vol. 3 since he’s pretty much cancelled any plans to direct it
Horrible list. Sorry but, silent film, your kidding right?
For me, i’d like to see Quentin do the following:
1 – Sci Fi/Time Travel
2 – Psychological Thriller/Horror
3 – Mafia/Mob/Gangster/Crime
4 – Zombies/Aliens Epidemic
5 – Heist (I know Reservoir Dogs is technically a heist film, but I’d like to see him do something along the line’s of “Heat” or “Point Break”)
Wouldn’t mind seeing Quentin collaborate with other directors and producers as well. Would be epic if he joined up with Scorsese, Nolan or James Cameron.
