"Quentin Tarantino has said that the film industry&amp;#039;s move towards digital technology is part of the reason why he wants to retire from directing. The Django Unchained helmer re-affirmed his desire to stop making films &amp;quot;deep into my old age&amp;quot;, saying that he dislikes digital projection and the idea of shooting with digital cameras.   In a roundtable directors&amp;#039; interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Tarantino lamented the loss of the traditional celluloid filmmaking process. &amp;quot;Part of the reason I&amp;#039;m feeling [like retiring] is, I can&amp;#039;t stand all this digital stuff. This is not what I signed up for,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;Even the fact that digital presentation is the way it is right now - I mean, it&amp;#039;s television in public, it&amp;#039;s just television in public. That&amp;#039;s how I feel about it. I came into this for film.&amp;quot; He continued: &amp;quot;I hate that stuff. I shoot film. But to me, even digital projection is - it&amp;#039;s over, as far as I&amp;#039;m concerned. It&amp;#039;s over.&amp;quot;  Use of traditional 35mm print projection is expected to cease in the US by the end of 2013, with a &amp;quot;global cutoff&amp;quot; likely to happen at the close of 2015. Tarantino added that the industry&amp;#039;s shift to digital has led to him thinking about adapting one of his lengthy scripts for TV. &amp;quot;If I&amp;#039;m gonna do TV in public, I&amp;#039;d rather just write one of my big scripts and do it as a miniseries for HBO, and then I don&amp;#039;t have the time pressure that I&amp;#039;m always under, and I get to actually use all the script,&amp;quot; he explained. &amp;quot;I always write these huge scripts that I have to kind of - my scripts aren&amp;#039;t like blueprints. They&amp;#039;re not novels, but they&amp;#039;re novels written with script format. And so I&amp;#039;m adapting the script into a movie every day. &amp;quot;The one movie that I was actually able to use everything - where you actually have the entire breadth of what I spent a year writing - was the two Kill Bill movies because it&amp;#039;s two movies. So if I&amp;#039;m gonna do another big epic thing again, it&amp;#039;ll probably be like a 6-hour miniseries or something.&amp;quot;  Tarantino has shot all of his films on 35mm, but experimented with digital when he guest-directed a scene in Robert Rodriguez&amp;#039;s Sin City. The Oscar-winning Pulp Fiction director said of his post-filmmaking plans: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ll probably just be a writer, or I&amp;#039;ll just write novels, and I&amp;#039;ll write film literature and film books and subtextual film criticism, things like that.&amp;quot; His eighth feature Django Unchained opens in US cinemas on December 25 and January 18 in the UK.
