Well, I finally got around to watching "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" [View all]

OMG - IT'S SO LONG and it has NO PLOT! If anyone else other than Tarantino shopped the script around Hollywood, it would have gone straight in the trash. It's as long as Pulp Fiction, but things HAPPENED in PF. His movies still make money, but I have no idea why.
