Quentin Tarantino is no longer planning to make “The Movie Critic,” which he had earlier said would be his final film as a director. It was confirmed Wednesday that the director had given the project a thumbs down.

“The Movie Critic” would have been Tarantino’s tenth feature film, but sources say he won’t be looking to rewrite the script or revive the project, instead making plans to move on to something new.

I know I would have loved his last film no matter what, but I am glad he scrapped this idea. I love his love for over the top violence and I hope he chooses a great action premise with his witty dialogue. Django unchained is still my favourite film and I know he will take his craft seriously and not disappoint.

I wonder if he's working himself into writer's paralysis knowing that this will be his final film.

He has other avenues after the 10th, like kill Bill vol 3, or even doing some TV episodes or an original series.

But I am glad also he wants to end his career because it also makes you savour all his films, knowing there is not an endless supply.

But I hope he does not burn himself out. We the audience can wait another 10 years if needs be
