Oh? That would be very interesting.

I liked it a lot, but I'm not sure where everyone gets the "greatest film ever" mentality from while watching it. The performances are very strong, everything is intertwined nicely, and I do like the way Tarantino uses homage as a central feature of the story, but at times it felt like it was lacking something.

Watch Reservoir Dogs. Both movies kind of tie in a little bit.

You're right, that soundtrack is great. I agree with what you say about the film overall, too.

I'll try to watch it when I get the chance. I'm definitely interested in watching more Tarantino movies to get a feel for what he's like as a director.


On another note, I just watched Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. There's a different feel to it from the other Kubrick movies I've watched. While that's probably a result of the movie being a black comedy, I think it's a little more than just that. Still, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I wish that the actors running around today playing multiple parts in movies would take a hint from Peter Sellers on how to do that the right way. He's great in all of his roles.

There hasn't been a movie that I've seen that I've hated. I think he's really good. He likes to use the same actors a lot (as it seems).

The Muppets - 10/10

This is what children's programming SHOULD be like. Not this Yo Gabba Gabba bullcrap that passes as entertainment these days.

Reservoir Dogs is a several notches above Pulp Fiction. It's one of only two movies that I've seen that had a scene which prompted me to really say "that's ****ed up" (the other being A Clockwork Orange...you cna probably guess which scene in that movie Im referring to).

Without giving too much away: Michael Madsen. "Stuck in the Middle". just one of those mind****s you get from watching some sinister action choreographed to a happy, upbeat tune.

In fact Vic Vega (Mr. Blonde) is Vincent Vega's brother... which explains a lot. :p

I love both movies, but I feel that Pulp Fiction is the stronger film. I'd say it's because of Samuel L. Jackson, but he was in Jackie Brown, and that movie was a snoozefest.

A Zed and Two Noughts

Gorgeous ridiculousness. Some of the finest photography and score I've seen and heard in a film, but the entire thing is so bloody weird it's hard to take seriously. Just reading a short synopsis is nearly too much. Will watch again just for aesthetic value.

Aw, and I plan on watching that film tonight too. I probably still will though, but aw. =[
