"Paul Dano wasn't Quentin Tarantino's only victim on The Bret Easton Podcast last week. The director also said he "doesn't care for" actor Matthew Lillard. Lillard's response? He doesn't care for Tarantino either. But also, has Tarantino not seen the live action Scooby Doo movie? Because there's just no way you could watch that film and feel anything but overwhelming affection for Lillard's Shaggy. [Editor's note: But also, Scream? Summer Catch? She's All That?!?!?!!]"
""Quentin Tarantino this week said that he doesn't like me as an actor. Eh, whatever. Who gives a shit?" he told the very supportive audience. "Listen, the point is that it hurts your feelings," he continued. "It fuckin' sucks. And you wouldn't say that to While speaking at GalaxyCon Tom Cruise. You wouldn't say that to somebody who's a top-line actor in Hollywood.""
"The comments about Lillard were part of Tarantino's larger podcast tirade, where he came for everything from (a "total ripoff" of the 2000 Japanese film ) and Dano, whom he called a "big, giant flaw" in Battle Royale There Will Be Blood Paul Thomas Anderson 's and "the weakest fucking actor in SAG." For the fans among us, this is an acute case of a condition we call "podcast mouth.""
Quentin Tarantino delivered blunt criticisms of several actors, including Matthew Lillard and Paul Dano, and labeled certain work a "total ripoff." Tarantino described performances harshly and called Dano a major flaw. Matthew Lillard addressed the remarks in Columbus, Ohio, saying the comment that Tarantino "doesn't like me as an actor" hurt and that such remarks "fuckin' sucks." Lillard noted a contrast between fan popularity and industry standing, calling it humbling. The remarks prompted fans and co-stars to defend the actors and generated negative press and public backlash.
