Tarantino is angry because he didn't get to write the dialogue for the birds.

Having a bird myself, I understand they can be noisy at times. But I'd much rather listen to noisy birds all day than the 3 noisy kids that live right next door to me. They are screaming and crying and throwing paper airplanes into my yard as I type and I'm..................going....................mad!!! Ugh. I'll trade birds for kids anyday! ;)

"Nearly every day, Mr Tarantino and others in his home are subjected to the macaws' obnoxious pterodactyl-like screams, which are not only startling, but have also seriously disrupted Mr Tarantino's ability to work as a writer in his home."

Now, all you young people who don't remember Johnny Quest, get to find out what tylers ride (a Pterodactyl) sounds like. Just check out the comments section of the article.

This is a neighborhood feud Hollywood style. I wonder what his neighbors have to say about the going ons at Tarantino's place.

Randi is a girl

I don't know why people are pulling for Ball, that stuff would annoy me too. It's like playing the base too loud, disrupting and rude. I get it that they are his pets but he can afford to move to a place where people don't have to listen to them.

    Who was there first, the birds or QT? Without knowing that, I cannot take sides.

      That would be incredibly annoying.. who would want to own pets making that kind of noise... I'm on Quentin's side on this.. who cares who was "There first" you don't move into a home, thinking your neighbor does or will at some point own loud screeching birds .... that would just really suck. Aren't there noise ordinances ?
