Quentin Tarantino's movie "Django Unchained" has been generally well-received as a quality film, but the controversy surrounding its sensitive topic is definitely still going strong. Tarantino is known for pushing the limits in his movies, especially with scenes of intense, cathartic violence, but the director snapped in a recent interview with Britain's Channel 4 after he was asked about the connection between that violence and real life violence.

"Don't ask me a question like that," answered Tarantino. "I'm not biting. I refuse your question."

When asked why he was refusing to answer, Tarantino said, "I'm not your slave and you're not my master. You can't make me dance to your tune. I'm not a monkey."

The entire interview ended up coming off as very hostile, and it seems that Tarantino is done discussing the violence in his movies. According to him, he hasn't changed his position in 20 years and never will.

Watch the interview above.

that's how u make black super heroes in hollywood first u built em up then u break em down then u built em up again just ask Ving or Halle or Denzel or any other black actor,put dress on a black actor,make a black actor drop his pants n get it from Zed or get it from Billy bob,hang a black actor upside down n cut off his balls pull out his eyeball get some hounds on a black actor after the black actor has been broken then and only than that black actor miraculously turns into a black hero.think...after u done thinking,think again

They dont like him because he deals with black people...and he is a great filmaker! His movies are well thought out and so far from the average crap.

I don't blame him for not jumping through hoops. They try to make a link btwn playwrights and idiots shooting up schools and make celebrities responsible. Stupid...
