Tarentino poll

I think I'll go with Pulp

[treeduck]

I think I'd pick Pulp Fiction, I like the way the story is told out of chronological order and the variety of the interlinking tales is rich, there's lots of different moods and vibes, romance, horror, black comedy, neo-noir to name but a few.

[thesweetscience]

I went with pulp but resevoir dogs is a close second.

 

Both kill bill movies were about as stupid as anything I have ever seen. I hope he gets back into form because he is an incredible director.

[Signals1982]

I love Kill Bill. But I had to go with Pulp Fiction too. A classic.

[Test4VitalSigns]

tough call between Pulp and Dogs but I'll go with a slight edge to Pulp for the section with THE WOLF (Winston Wolfe played by Harvey Keitel) alone.

 

 

Looking forward to Grindhouse!

[mortkort]

I picked Resevoir Dogs

[Snowman]

Pulp Fiction.

 

I havent seen resevoir dogs.

 

 

[kazzman]

True Romance

 

Even though he didn't direct it, it's still a Tarantino film. Plus, it's got one of the greatest scenes in motion picture history.

I just realised he also dirrected some of Sin City, I didn't know that

That was funny...

 

 

He'd have been killed though well before he finished that little tale in reality...they'd have slapped him silly then shot him dead the first time he even got close to saying it...

Yeah the Dwight/Jackie Boy scene. From the first viewing of that scene has Tarantino written all over it.

 

I can't wait for Grindhouse either...

Pulp Fiction. Although I really enjoyed R. Dogs and Jackie B. I was disappointed with both Kill Bills. I thought the story was a bit drawn out, the fight scenes looked more like dance sequences, and MOST IMPORTANT: there wasn't any of the wit that filled the other 3 movies on that list.

KB vol 1 and 2 were simply mounds of over choreographed gratuitous violence with no real purpose. Maybe I just didn't get it but it bored me and his movies usually don't.

Thanks bunches!

I never saw Reservoir Dogs after hearing how violent and harsh it was. I know it's supposed to be a classic and all, but I've never been able to get myself to watch it.

 

I almost didn't watch Pulp Fiction for the same reason, but people raved about it SO much and SO loudly for SO long that I finally gave in and saw it. Oddly, I don't remember it that well. I remember it being quirky, stylish, and of course very violent, but other than that it didn't really stick in my memory. While I guess I could see why others love it so much, it wasn't really my kind of thing, and I've never been inspired to seek it out again.

 

Jackie Brown I saw, and it was similarly unmemorable for me. It was good, I guess.

 

The Kill Bill movies I've so far avoided seeing after hearing how excessively violent they were as well. I just never saw the upside of seeing them.

 

I dunno, no matter how good extremely violent movies are supposed to be, I just generally am not into them, and unless they happen to have really incredible storylines like say a Goodfellas, Scarface or Gangs of New York, I find them to be unnecessarily disturbing, not to mention pretty instantaneously forgettable...

If somebody doesn't like the word, then that's their problem.

He directed one small part of the Clive Owen section where he's driving in the car with the dead Jackie Boy in the passenger seat.

It's because you're a hippy mate, why the surprise? It's obvious you're not gonna like these kinds of films, my mum doesn't either. So you don't like hard rocking Rush albums and you don't like tough films no big deal, love, love love is all you need right? Just go back to light drama and you'll feel much happier or at least get rid of that sad face...

It's only a word that people take out of context more than they should. Again, if somebody has a problem with it, then it's their problem and they need to learn how to deal with it.
