I'd forgotten what a great movie Natural Born Killers was

and so funny too!

It's on Bravo now.

Move over Tarantino!

Here comes Stone!

1. Tarantino has a writing credit on "Killers..."

I think it might be "Story by" or "based on a screenplay by" QT. I also think he sort of disavowed it, for some strange reason.

Yeah, it's wildly pretentious at points, but brutal where it counts.

2. Tarantino does get credit for writing the story.

So I shouldn't say "Move Over"

3. gmoney and imdb are right--I read his original screenplay

quite a few years ago. The biggest difference was that the reporter character had a MUCH bigger role in his script. Guess why!?

Because Tarantino wrote the part, with HIMSELF in mind to play it!!
:eyes: Some directors have no shame at all...

Funny that the role became significantly smaller in the Stone version of the film, with a REAL actor in the role! :rofl:

4. For the director's cut

check your local video store. Some other scenes that ended up on the cutting room floor (that were also in the original script). Most notably a courtroom scene starring Ashley Judd. Pretty violent scene, but it's kind of famous in the underground, director's cut world.

5. The Director's Cut is pretty horrific

and I don't mean that as a bad thing.

It's an incredibly powerful and endlessly fascinating film.

8. From what I read about it, I figured it would be

(horrific). You're right, it doesn't have to be a bad thing, just not really something I would see--reading the script was enough for me, my imagination created enough. LOL!

6. I could never look at Woody from Cheers the same, after that movie.

It had a great soundtrack, too!

7. The only time I saw that movie I was sober, so I didn't enjoy it
