Tarantino, Vol. 9: The Hateful Eight.
Three months ago, word leaked that Quentin Tarantino was developing a new Star Trek film with J.J. Abrams producing. Some people were not happy. Others were overjoyed. But a lot can happen in three months. Last week, information was revealed about a car crash on the set of Tarantino's Kill Bill, which many feel he was largely responsible for. Ever since, the questions on everyone's minds are "How did this happen?" "Is Tarantino at fault?" "Should he even be allowed to direct Star Trek?"In this episode of Stage Nine, hosts Mike Schindler and John Mills discuss the recent revelations regarding Tarantino, and question how that changes the way his work is perceived. We also conclude our series with Tarantino's latest film, The Hateful Eight. In news, we discuss the surprise release of the new Abrams production, The Cloverfield Paradox.

Tarantino, Vol. 3: Four Rooms.
The 1990s produced numerous independent filmmakers who quickly became rockstars, and formed a tight-knit community. In that spirit, Quentin Tarantino teamed with three of his contemporaries to create the anthology film Four Rooms. The movie stars Tim Roth as a bellboy working alone at a hotel on New Year's Eve. As the title suggests, the film is divided into four stories, one for each "room," with each story written and directed by a different filmmaker. Those four filmmakers are Allison Anders, Alexandre Rockwell, Robert Rodriguez, and Quentin Tarantino.In this episode of Stage Nine, hosts Mike Schindler and John Mills continue their series on Tarantino with a look at Four Rooms. We discuss the poor reception, the varying quality of the segments, and what makes Tarantino's segment a standout. In news, we look at the writer hired to pen the script for Star Trek 14, Mark L. Smith.

Tarantino on Trek.
Quentin Tarantino is one of the most talented and influential filmmakers currently working. He has also mentioned several times that he is a massive Star Trek fan and would be interested in taking a turn helming a Star Trek movie. However, he has claimed that he will only direct ten films, and he is currently in pre-production on Number 9. So what would the chances be that this A-List auteur would make a studio franchise film his last?In this episode of Stage Nine, hosts John Mills and Mike Schindler discuss the recent news that Quentin Tarantino is writing a story for a new Star Trek movie with an eye towards directing. We discuss Tarantino's unique talents and what he could bring to Star Trek. We also discuss his idea for a James Bond sequel, and the possibility of a Star Trek cinematic Universe.

Directors That Never Were.
Star Trek movies have a rich history of hiring top-tier directing talent.

We discuss filmmakers such as Philip Kaufman, Ron Howard, Harve Bennett, and even Ridley Scott, and wonder what their movies may have been like.

Jesse Alexander's The Saint.
"The way they pick TV shows is, they make one show. That show's called a pilot. Then they show that one show to the people who pick shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they want to make more shows. Some get chosen and become television programs. Some don't, become nothing." -Jules, Pulp FictionStar Trek: Discovery writer Jesse Alexander wrote one of the ones that became nothing. That show was a remake of the Roger Moore classic, The Saint. But unlike the pilot that Mia Wallace starred in, The Saint has been expanded to feature length, and released as a direct-to-video movie starring Adam Rayner and Eliza Dushku.
In this episode of Stage Nine, John and Mike take a look at The Saint. We discuss our limited history with the franchise, the pilot's peculiar structure, and what it may have been like in its original form.
