Pulp Fiction is my fav movie of all time.

vick vega · 01-23-2008, 06:26 PM

W/Pulp being 2+1/2 hour plus and each Kill bill being about the same, they'd better be 50 gig blu-rays' and not this 25 gig shi*

quick question, what's the big deal about Pulp Fiction and KB? not to disrespect each of your own opinions or preferences, I just can't find what's so great about those movies

every time people ask me if I have seen Pulp Fiction and/or KB and I immediately say that I didn't like them most folks look at me like I am some sort of freak. I personally think those 3 titles are garbage. I just would like to know what you guys find so attractive on these titles, I think I've seen more post asking for these three movies in the past year and a half that any other out there.

I could go on and on about what I liked about Pulp Fiction, but it is undeniable that it has influenced a broad range of films that have been made since it came out in 1994. Some have gone as far to say it changed movies much like Citizen Kane did 60+ years ago. Even if you don't like Pulp Fiction, I'm willing to bet you like several movies that were influenced by it.

Interesting question... I think every aspect of Pulp Fiction is perfect, acting, directing, music, story, editing, etc... what is not to love? Especially the story and the way its told, its so complex, yet simple and perfectly done. Each time I watch I am still intrigued by it.

Kill Bill 1 and 2 are also great because they are odes to Spaghetti Westerns and Kung-Fu films (two of QT's favorite genres and mine as well). So putting his style on these classic genres makes a really great bunch of films, but if you do not like QT's style, then you may not like it as much.

Cannot wait for Pulp, Kill Bill and Jackie Brown on Blu! If they are anything like Reservoir Dogs on Blu, they will be well worth the wait!

Minimejer05 · 01-23-2008, 11:07 PM

I hope Death Proof gets a US Blu release sometime...

The movie's are more true to life stuff that could happen(except KB) with a "Hip" twist. The music is ALWAYS great!

ceckitti · 01-23-2008, 11:41 PM

any word on my personal favorite QT film... True Romance? Hopefully with the Warner announcement it wont be much longer.

I have never thought about it that way, interesting comment. My girlfriend is always critizising me, she loves Pulp Fiction, I guess maybe one day I give it another chance and try to see what eveybody else sees! thanks guys for the input!

Death Proof doesnt deserve a Blu-ray release because the DVD version is fine... the picture is clear and the sound is outstanding enough... if you check it out by using the PS3 DVD upconversion to full, it really looks clear enough.. I even encode the DVD version to AVC by usinig Nero Recode 2 program. it looks and sound perfect

To each their own but:

Kill Bill V 1 & 2 are an homage to Bruce Lee [Game of Death especially] and the Shaw Bothers martial arts films of the 60s, 70s & 80s. If you aren't a fan of those than Kill Bill may not appeal to you.

Pulp Fiction & Resivour Dogs were the beginning of a genre that has led to so many other films like last years Smokin Aces or Shoot Em Up. Pulp Fiction was ground breaking at the time and paved the way for that specific genre to flourish.

To some these movies are timeless classics..you can probablly throw in The River's Edge, Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart etc....David Lynch was doing it before Tarantino but the audience wasn't ready. Tarantino had the right timing for the product. Lynch was early so his movies were critically acclaimed but not financial hits like Pulp Fiction...Did I mention Natural Born Killers?

i want to see from dusk till dawn on bd.

vick vega · 01-24-2008, 04:38 PM

I think my favorite thing is the editing. The way a scene at the start of the movie, really is the end of the movie and then each subsequent scene sheds light/backroround on the scene that was just ok on it's own.

vick vega · 02-12-2008, 06:08 PM

Gimme 3 grams of the mad man, and if it's as good as you say it is I'll come back and buy another thousand.

Well I just hope I have some left but, I'm giving you some out of my own personal stash, that's what a nice guy I am. baggy alright,I'm all out of ballons?

That's fine. You mind if I shoot up here?

Mi casa es sue casa.

Muchas Gracias, (sound of surf music playing).

I know this movie by heart.

Who's motorcycle is this? This is a Chopper baby. Who's chopper is this? Zed's. Who's Zed? Zed's dead baby. Zed's dead.
