I can't wait to 'Kill Bill' Tarantino fans rejoice!
Edited on Fri Oct-10-03 08:23 AM by rjbcar27
As a big Tarantino fan and a long time lover of swords and mace wielding Japanese schoolgirls, I just can't freaking WAIT!

Bring on the blood baby!

2. highly over rated director
Way to much gratuitous violence, but obviously he has his fans.
'Pulp' was a very good film, but even in that he couldn't resist juvenile dialogue such as had him uttering the following phrase 3 times in a minute: "dead nigger storage". Too cute, and a turn off for me.

4. That's Tarantino for you.
Its how he writes - for the context of the scene, I found it amusing. But I also liked 'True Romance' - a script he penned.

Tarantino's dialogue ability reminds of me Kevin Smith's - he has the ability to deliver a relatively strong message / meaning using pretty damn childish words.

The violence in Pulp Fiction was there to further the story - there are alot of people who just dont like the kind of 'disjointed' film that Pulp Fiction plays as - I do... I also loved Christopher Nolan's 'Memento' - another film that plays with the concept of time (and, in that film's case, memory)

I'm looking forward to 'Kill Bill' - I am going into it KNOWING that it will be full of blood, gore, and general mayhem. Movies are an escape.. blood / violence / bad language on the screen doesn't translate into me going out and carjacking someone, slicing their jugular vein in the process. Heck, I can't even kill a spider - I pick them up and put them outside.. yet, I love to watch peoples heads get hacked off in a movie.. I'm sick, I know.

6. I think the "True Romance" script is his best work...
which is quite surprising since I really hate Tony Scott and Christian "Spotty" Slater

5. I love Tarantino's flicks -

I have most every movie he's been associated with on dvd.
