Quentin Tarantino drunk on Jay Leno - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Janice · 09-30-2003, 12:37 AM

Did anyone see this? He was on tonight promoting his new movie, Kill Bill, and he was loaded. I'm not talking a little buzzed. He was sloshed...repeating himself...bloodshot eyes....acting obnoxious.
Jay finally asked him if he was drinking, and he said he was. Jay was making jokes, saying don't light a match near his breath, and Jay kept waving his hands in front of him to get rid of Quentin's booze breath.
I'm not knocking Tarantino, but I don't recall ever seeing anyone so drunk on a talk show.

wow.

I gotta see that

Know if it's gonna be on again?

I was going to flip it over to Leno earlier, but changed my mind. Now I wish I'd seen that!

I've gotta see that!

That sounds so funny.

wizard12 · 09-30-2003, 10:22 AM

I saw it. It was hilarious. He had no clue what he was doing.

Kay Scarpetta · 09-30-2003, 03:41 PM

Oh Jesus... I wonder if Jay was mad afterward?

Aw poo, I missed it. For those who want to catch it again.. watch it next Monday (technically a Tuesday) @ 2am on NBC.

He's a writer and director, probably best-known for a tiny film called "Pulp Fiction."

He's also an actor.

Here's a pic

Ohhhh

I knew that!

Thanks!!

Well, you cant blame them for getting drunk.. they serve them alcohol to relax!

Janice · 09-30-2003, 04:09 PM

The thing is, I didn't find it funny, and not because he was drunk. If he were a comedian or a naturally funny guy, the alcohol would have only made him funnier.
In Tarantino's case, he's not a comedian, and he came off as obnoxious. Kevin Bacon was the first guest and seated next to him, and he had that WTF look on his face.
He said he was drinking, and then hit the mini-bar in the Green Room.
I was embarrassed for Quentin. Maybe others will find it funny, but I found it awkward.

Tom Greene was pretty hammered awhile back on Jay Leno. Not only was he drunk, but he was actually drinking (he had a bottle of rum in his hand) on the show.
