Mayor Stu Fraser of Telluride said that "The Hateful Eight" gave their town an economic boost and all businesses from restaurants to hotels are thriving. Mayor Fraser explained that "With a large operation moving into a small community, it's been highly favorable, From a financial perspective, it has been very beneficial." He also added that "They're tourists and they're spending money, but they're also really nice people."
Once filming is done, Quentin Tarantino intends to release his film on November 13, 2015. However this won't be a typical release like that of a regular film since Tarantino intends to release his latest masterpiece on 70mm theaters. Fans cannot expect "The Hateful Eight" in their local theaters since most of the theaters today don't usually run on 70mm film projectors.
"The Hateful Eight", stylized as 'The H8teful Eight', have a controversial pre-production when its script was leaked online when Quentin Tarantino announced it. Fortunately the academy award winning director proceeded in the filming of his 8th film. Eight since he counts the "Kill Bill" movies only as one movie.
The upcoming film will be set in post-Civil War Wyoming where eight people will have their fates collide as they are trapped in the middle of a blizzard storm. This may be one of the last films of Quentin Tarantino as he intends to leave the film industry. The film director explained that "I don't believe you should stay onstage until people are begging you to get off. I like the idea of leaving them wanting a bit more. I do think directing is a young man's game, and I like the idea of an umbilical cord connection from my first to my last movie. I'm not trying to ridicule anyone who thinks differently, but I want to go out while I'm still hard. ... If, later on, I come across a good movie, I won't not do it just because I said I wouldn't. But 10 and done, leaving them wanting more - that sounds right."
"The Hateful Eight" is set for release on 70mm theaters on November 13, 2015. This may be one of the last few films that Quentin Tarantino is going to direct as he exits the film industry.
