It was a Tarentino weekend for us so far.

Watched Kill Bill Volume 1 on Friday - Enjoyed it a lot, however I did get a little bored with the endless fight scenes, looking forward to volume 2 being more dialouge and less "Kung Fu Theater"

Saw Resevoir Dogs last night, really liked it, I had not seen it before, although I though everyone in the film was great, I would have to givre top billing to Buscemi, from the openeing scene in the diner I thought he owned the film.

I am a Tarentino fan, have not seen a movie he was involved with that I did not enjoy

Have you seen "From Dusk Til Dawn"?

A lot of QT's characters exist in his own world and co-exist with each other
Example: the Vega Brothers from Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction

I liked the comparisons between QT and Kevin Smith above as well, they were both clerks in video stores, so always have a ton of movie references in heir movies.

One of my "dream jobs" is to own my own video store. Just to have a big shelf that says "Lance's Picks" ;-) Titles ranging from A Clockwork Orange to Gummo to Plan 9 From Outer Space to Screwballs.

I loved that flick, a great collaboration between Tarentino and Robert Rodriguez.

It started out as sort of a crime drama and turned horror flick about halfway through.

Yes I did, and I even enjoyed that in all it's absurdity :)

But then, it is possible that there is something wrong with me :blink:

The saving graces of From Duck till Dawn are Juliette Lewis and Harvey Kitel

and the classic line from when approaching the Titty Twister

and for almost painful Tarintino movie .....

Jackie Brown

but that does have Deniro and Samuel Jackson

I so agree.

LONG LIVE MrPINK!!!

KILL Quentin!

FREE Gonzo!

Here I am, stuck in the middle with you

After falling in love with Resevoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, From Dusk 'til Dawn was a huge let-down. Too commercialized, like he wrote it for someone else rather than himself.
Haven't seen Kill Bill yet (either of them). After FDTD, I was afraid it would be another letdown.

And I knew somewhere in the thread someone would mention Clockwork Orange - good god what a horrid piece of crap that was. The only reason it got "big" was *because* it was such a piece of crap and all of the wanna-be goth goonies in the early 90s were trying SO hard to be different and non-conformist that they flocked to this film because it was an absolute ZERO on a scale of 1 to 10.

I'd rather watch Priscilla, Queen of the Desert a thousand times over than have to suffer through Clockwork Orange one more time.

That is so you. :-)

I've always wanted to own a bookstore but have never had the time and not sure on the profits. Maybe I'll get around to it some day.

My god! One of my favorite movies of all time. The BF Skinner thread used to sew this together makes it a masterpiece.

It came out more than 30 years ago, long before the "90s" so I have no idea what you are talking about. It was "big" a long time ago. It was one of the top grossing films of 1971.
