It was blown out of proportion. And keep in mind that the film itself says that some of it was fiction. So how do I know they ain't making shit up? She could've said no and walked away. But she didn't.

Why is the general tone here of disappointment instead of relief.

do you know what coercion is? the legal term for this is quid pro quo. it happens a lot, and it is rape.

But it DOES have to be non-consensual. And she appeared willing, if not eager.

Kinda. At least put up a fight to show that you don't want it. Cuz now it just looks like she gave it up to get ahead. That's on her.

Rape is rape, doesn't have to be overtly brutal or physically violent.

Oh yeah, I remember that now. It’s been a minute since I watched it. So that’s what OP was asking about? Tarantino does care about his craft, but that’s a little different than caring about other peoples inaccuracies in movie-making.

Does it really have to be drawn out and violent to be considered rape?

The recent cut is sub-subtitled "The Death Of Michael Corleone" and cuts out Michael's death scene. Anyone else notice that just before the helicopter attack, a guy locks the doors of the room... from the inside? Secretly suicidal conspirator, or sloppy filmmaking? I lean toward the latter.
It's a terrible rush job of a movie made by someone who didn't want to make it in the first place.

I love this question, it's a debate you can have endlessly without losing any respect for anyone no matter what their opinion is (see also: which Star Wars prequel is the worst).
They're all terrific. For me it's probably Face / Off but Con Air could overtake it depending on mood

Eraserhead. Though a lot of people won’t want to watch it once which is completely understandable 😂

The problem with this approach is that it's like doing a too faithful a remake of a great song. The end result is just bad karaoke.
If a remake just apes the original in every way why does it need to exist?
I Heard It Through Grapevine is a good example. Gladys Knight And The Pips recorded it first and it was a hit. But Marvin Gaye's version is probably the definitive one because he took a completely different approach.
The original is poppy and upbeat. But Gaye's version is slower paced, moody, and ominous.
So getting back to cinema, this is the reason why Steven Soderbergh's Oceans 11 is superior to the 1960 original Oceans Eleven. He took the same concept but wrote a different script thus elevating the material.

I'll reserve my judgement until they reboot the franchise with a sequel that ignores the original sequels
