10 Predictions For Quentin Tarantino's Final Movie

Quentin Taratino could be one of the most polarising directors in mainstream cinema history. You either love his movies as artistic masterpieces in dialogue and story-telling; or you hate his over-the-top, violent, offensive brand of narrative.

Regardless of your opinion, he's had a hugely successful career financially and critically (for the most part), one that he's placed a self-imposed limit of ten feature films on:

"I don't believe you should stay onstage until people are begging you to get off. I like the idea of leaving them wanting a bit more. If I get to the 10th, do a good job and don't screw it up, well that sounds like a good way to end the old career."

With his 9th movie, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, just released, the question turns to his final addition to the filmography. What will be the last instalment on the IMDb credits?

Will he make a sequel to a previous film? Or even round out a trilogy? Will he go back to the well of westerns and historical reenactments? Will he produce something way out of left-field?

It's a question only the man himself knows the answer to. But that doesn't mean we can't speculate until the cows come home!

Who says he HAS to make a 10th movie at all?

Quentin Tarantino has been making feature films since 1992, the year of his major motion picture debut, Reservoir Dogs. In other words, he's been doing this for 27 years already. Did anyone stop to think that after more than a quarter of a century, he might want to just call it a day?

While there's no doubt he still has a drive for creativity and loves his art, creating a movie encompasses a lot more than just coming up with a story or an idea; filmmakers are hit with a million production slaps to the face before, during and after each and every movie.

It's satisfying for those who strive for the end product, but it's still a grind that takes a mental and physical toll on anyone.

Just maybe, at 56 years of age, Tarantino doesn't want to deal with the processes and the strain that comes with turning an idea into the product that hits cinemas.

Will his ninth film, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, be his swansong? It's unlikely, but Quentin Tarantino is nothing if not unpredictable.
