Sukiyaki Western Django is a [[Spaghetti Western]] by [[Takashi Miike]] starring almost entirely Japanese people, with almost exclusively English dialogue. There are two exceptions to both: one of each of them is [[Quentin Tarantino]], who opens the film in a flashback where he tells the age-old tale about a war, [[Eternal Recurrence|a recurrence of which he takes part in much later in his life]]. He then throws an egg in the air, shoots 3 people whose [[Painting the Fourth Wall|blood splatters the backdrop]], and then extends one hand to catch the egg to an [[Rule of Funny|accompanying slide whistle]]. [[Rule of Cool|It's that kind of movie]]. |
