Tarantino Says He's In War With 'Franchise Films'

Quentin Tarantino told Deadline that he believes "a war for movies got played out this last year."
Tarantino referenced "commercial products" like Marvel films, "Stars Wars," and James Bond movies.
The director said 2019 was "a really, really strong year" for "original movies."
Tarantino told Deadline that he is relieved that 2019 saw a barrage of original movies that movie-goers went to see.
"If it hadn't done it this year, it might have been the last stand for movies like that. This is a really groovy year."
