The worst is Quentin Tarantino shoehorning his characters saying that in all of his movies.
Don't forget about his obsession with women's feet!
What's wrong with liking feet?
Yeah its really weird. Get Leo's toes out too!
I think those are all appropriate for the movies they're in. You can argue whether a white director should do that.
In Django sure but I would not say so for Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction. Hell, Samuel L Jackson specifically told him not to say it in Pulp Fiction. It does not make sense for the scene either. A suburban white dude is going to say it multiple times to a black assassin who just got done killing people? His character is not supposed to be a bumbling moron.
I think it shows his character has power in the situation, is familiar with Jackson's character and demands his respect. But that's subjective.
