Killbill 1 review

[Winetalk.com]

far from other Tarentino gems...if you look for Pulp Fiction repeat-
don't.

[pushpills]

it's still very good. i'm going to get into my film reviews (not just reviews) and teach you all a bit about actual "films" and you will appreciate good movies alot better.


I myself am somewhat of a film student, and am aspiring to date a columbia film student (I blew off our date tonight because my skin got kinda fucked up from some of the lotion i put on it and all the sun i got with the ttops off yesterday....tonights going to be spent with a bottle of aloe).


with that said, this IS a good movie and a good series I'm betting. tarentino, while somewhat of a bunco artist, is one of the top directors in the film business and not just today.

Steve, I was raised on European cinematography,
from the days when art matterted more than commercial success...

so...what would you wanna teach me about movies?
;-)))

you may start with Tarkovsky... and finish with Gaben
;-)))

[pushpills]

serge perhaps the film review/discussion/class session as I envision is should be somewhat of a joint venture.


nevertheless....you didn't give this particular film SOME of the credit that it deserves. and it does deserve credit. and also we should all know....something old doesn't necessarily make it the best and classic...because it is the new that has the financing knowledge technology and potential to be better.

[Winetalk.com]

Steve, I disagree....NONE of the living artists are classics.
;-))

Van Gogh and Modigliani died in poverty....30 mils for sunflowers weren't paid while Van Gogh was alive
;-)))

therefore...Tarentino is NOT classic..yet,
he is CONTEMPORARY.

does it contradict what you learned in the colege?
;-)))

and I know that you'd appreciate that my previous post which goes under category:

"Please allow me to retort"
;-))))

I'm sure you'll name the movie where this quote is from
;-)))

[Peaches]

Except for Pulp Fiction, I've just never "gotten" Tarantino's flicks. Even some parts of PF had me dazed and confused.

[pushpills]

I'm saying that something old DOESNT make it classic. Yes, ok, tarentino will have to wait awhile before he's "classic" but re-read that sentence of mine, I didn't mean to say that all that the best that is new is classic now, i was saying that the oldies aren't nessecarily classic.


and that quote, if thats pulp that you are talking about, that's not the exact quote at all, you should have google searched it first.

[Winetalk.com]

did I break your concentration????

any idiot can find quote on Google,
you gotta keep it in your heart, right or wrong,
in spirit
;-))



Sam L. Jackson: *Gunshot* Oh I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?

Sam L. Jackson: Shut the fuck up, fatman! This ain't none of your goddamn business!

Sam L. Jackson: I don't remeber asking you a goddamn thing!

Sam L. Jackson: Come on, Yolanda! What's Fonzie like?" "Cool.." What? "Cool." "Correctamundo! And that's what we're gonna be - We're gonna be cool.

Sam L. Jackson: Describe what Marcellus Wallace looks like!
Brett: What I..
Sam L. Jackson: Say what again. Say what again! I dare ya, I double dare ya, you motherfucker! Say what one more goddamn time.
Brett: He's black..
Sam L. Jackson: Go on!
Brett: He's bald!
Sam L. Jackson: Does he look like a bitch?
Brett: What?
Sam L. Jackson: *BLAM*
Brett: Aauuuh auh!
Sam L. Jackson: Does he look like a bitch?
Brett: Noo!
Sam L. Jackson: Then why are you trying to fuck him like a bitch, Brett?
Brett: I didn't..
Sam L. Jackson: Yes you did. Yes you did, Brett! You tried to fuck him and Marcellus Wallace don't like to get fucked by anybody else than Mrs. Wallace.

Sam L. Jackson: I don't wanna hear about no motherfucking ifs! All I wanna hear from your ass is: 'You ain't got no problem, Jules. I'm on the motherfucker. Go back in there, chill them niggers out and wait for the cavalry, which should be coming directly.'

Sam L. Jackson: My name is Pit, and your ass ain't talking your way out of this shit.

Sam L. Jackson: I wouldn't go so far to call the brother fat. I mean, he has a weight problem, what's the nigger gonna do, he's Samoan.

Sam L. Jackson: Please, continue. What's the matter? Oh, you were finished? Well, allow me to retort.

[pushpills]

right "Well, allow me to retort."


not please allow me to retort.

that's what i'm saying.....

We rented Kill Bill a few nights ago and I was surprised that I liked it. I like Tarantinos other movies but I wasn't a big enough fan to see KB in the theater. I thought the ass kicking girls were fun and the score by RZA was great. I dont know anything about karate movies so Im sure some of the homages went over my head. It definitely doesnt have the genius dialogue of Pulp Fiction.

Serge, are you a Mamet fan?

I too watched it and was surprised that I liked it.

Like the curates egg it was good in parts.

More "interesting" was watching Tarantino interviewed by Conan O'Brien the other evening.

Tarantino is insane without a doubt.A genius ? I think remains to be seen.

I believe his behaviour causes problems getting his films insured.

I liked the movie, but in physical sense, not for it's lacking inner beauty.
Pulp Fiction DID have an inner beauty

I liked Kill Bill Volume 1, but I hate the fanboys who brag about how original Tarrantino is...I like him and hs movies, but they almost always contain nods, winks, homages, etc. to other films. My friends and I are going to play a drinking game this weekend. For every reference to another movie in Kill Bill Volume 1 to a movie that I have in my collection, we take a drink..we should be drunk about halfway through the movie ;-)

Serge, have you seen that movie "Russian Ark" yet? Damn good movie and gave me a huge appreciation for Russian history and art as well as the art of cinematography.

pushpills, I'm a movie fanatic as well, my favorites lately tend to be asian horror..but I love the bad bad bad b-flicks as much as the dogme stuff and even the artsy fartsy arthouse stuff...

I'm mulling kicking off a movie review site of low budget and independent movies...a site who's readers can appreciat Ed Wood as much as Richard Linklater, who can show as much love for a Harmony Korine flick as a Kevin Smith movie. After all this time of posting, I think you and I maay have exactly one thing in common ;-)
