Awesomeness?

Anyway, I am sadly not too knowledgeable in Quentin Tarantino, which I intend to change. But I have seen pulp fiction and that alone makes me want to see this. That and the trailer.

I always took the awesomeface as sarcastic, implying the exact opposite of awesome.

As for myself, I haven't watched any Quentin Tarantino movies at all.

To be honest, any Tarantino film has a foot scene. He's truly a foot fetish man. Crazy signature thing he does, but its quite cool aswell.

Anyway, this film is very awesome you must go see it. The Villian is set up so amazingly, it was raw emotion in that first scene, truly insane.

[Hawkfrost]

Saw it a few days ago, I really liked it.

Some moments were very funny, and I laughed through the gore scenes, especially the last one.
Only thing that irked me a little was how much it slowed down in the middle, but the ending was worth it.


Appealed to my sick, twisted humor, I thought it was great.


PS:Yeah, that moment with the fist-gun thing was awesome.
PS2:The villain was a genius, I swear.

I really must see this. Brad Pitt is pretty damn awesome. Quentin Tarantino... he always sounds like a douche in interviews and such, but his movies, he is good at making them. They're usually style over substance, but they're damn fun to watch.

Heh, I've noticed that too. It starts to be a running gag when you're looking for them. A very awkward running gag.

Watch Pulp Fiction. Now. Seriously.

[Vester]

I must obey the crazy kefka.

(If I watch it, I'm watching it for Samuel L. Jackson, woooo!)

[Kagus]

My entire experience with Quentin Tarantino are the two parts of Kill Bill and Reservoir Dogs.


I've already given him two second chances.  I don't have any plans for my forcing myself to watch a third second chance.  I really just can't stand his work.

I do respect Brad Pitt though.  Very highly.

ALL. MUST. OBEY. And yeah, Samuel L. Jackson is just the king of badasses. He gets a lot of screen time in Pulp Fiction, which is one of the reasons I like it so much 

[Jackrabbit]

One of the few movies that makes a conversation about cleaning up brain matter funny.

[WorkerDrone]

Yes the Awesomeface I made did imply sarcasm.

At least that time.

[Footkerchief]

Anyway, I saw it.  I'm not going to say it was bad, because it wasn't.  It was good.  But Tarantino is getting too Tarantino for his own good.  Out of three hours, it's like 30 minutes of Brad Pitt jokes, 30 minutes of action, 30 minutes of the visual equivalent of purple prose, and an hour and a half of awkward silences and meandering conversations that eventually wrap back around to some plot point.

So does it have more pseudo-witty dialogue than Pulp Fiction?  I enjoy that movie except for the scenes like the foot massage conversation.

[GruffyBears]

Got to agree with Aquizzar.

It was pretty good, but during the scene in the restraunt when the chick meets up with the villian, I left for about 5 minutes to find and use the restrooms. I came back, AND NOTHING HAD CHANGED. IT WAS A GUY, EATING A CAKE. FOR 5 MINUTES.

I just felt all the scenes consisted of 93% suspense and 7% dissapointingly short action scene.

[Footkerchief]

It was a tossup last night between Inglourious Basterds and District 9.  We ended up seeing District 9.  That was THE most videogame-y movie I've ever seen.  Good action scenes though.

[Sensei]

What do you mean by videogame-y?

Like other videogame movies?

Or the plot just serves as a reason to kill the next bad thing?

[Footkerchief]

It was better than most videogame movies, but yeah, paper-thin plot and a lot of focus on fancy weapons.  Also occasional use of the first-person looking-down-the-gun camera angle used in the Doom movie.
