Kill Bill

A bit late yes, but still a great movie. I just saw it last night, and I love it. If you havent seen it yet, go out and buy it. Not everyone will like this movie though.

I cannot wait for Kill Bill VOL.2 :biggrin:

Especially the scene where all the cut bodies are lying on the ground in that restaurant ... fantastic ! (the Anime part innit is great, too)

Stylish stuff. Not as good as his other movies though.

Yeah. He makes the best action movies Ive seen for a while.

The most impressive part of Kill Bill is how Tarantino managed to make the overwhelming amount of style be pretty coherent with the story rather than having it branch off and become abstract. It's a shame he only used to song on the trailer only once, and in a bad spot :sad:

Yeah, in a lot of action parts where some music was starting to play..It just stopped abruptly. That seemed kind of annoying to me, and sometimes even bland when the fights came on.

Mmm... I've seen it twice, once with Cass. Kinda like a date. :wink: :wink:

the music is like that to give it more of a 60/70's feal, which is what Tarantino wanted.
the most noticable bit is when she's getting into the truck, the camera angle changes and the music go's mid beat.
bit over done, but i liked it. :smile:

I really need to get the soundtrack to this movie..that song at the beginning, goes like "he shot me down, shot me down", is a good 'un.

nancy sinatra- bang bang.
forgot i had that, thanks!

oh, kewl. That's indeed a catchy song.

Well I downloaded it and it is NOT what I was expecting by the description "catchy" :biggrin: I'm sure it works in the movie, but not to my tastes as a stand alone song.

volume 2 trailer:

The good song on the Kill Bill Soundtrack is track 10: Santa Esmeralda - Don't Let Me be Misunderstood. So awesome.

yea it was a decent movie. I thought that the anime scene was insanely cool. Funny when she scalps the asian girl at the end. Cos you think shes chopped her head off, then you see her head on her body. I was, hmm... ohh! :eek: ...

I loved Kill Bill, taking that I'm just as big of a fan of all those genres and styles as Tarantino is.

I'm just glad it was better then Jackie Brown. Also, if you didn't notice the anime sequence had animation direction by Hiroyuki Kitakubo (Blood).

Tarantino is a wonderful director and he does something that a lot of directors just can't do when they choose modern music; he chooses good music, which fits his style. The only thing he doesn't do well is act (Desperado, Dusk Before Dawn, all his "brotha's" Rodriguez's flicks I might add.)

April 16th, in the states ... oh yeah The Punisher comes out that day too ... all I can say about that is ... it'll be better then the other Punisher movie, which was horribly bad, but Luis Gosit Jr. was awesome in it ... as always.

YES!!!! I listened to that song for like two months straight. That and ELO - Mr. Blue Sky, after watching the Eternal Sunshine trailer twenty times.

I don't think you really can compare any current Marvel-based movies with old ones. The Captain America movie? Terrible. They sent it straight to video. The Fantastic Four movie? So bad, they didn't even release it on video. There was also a fairly crappy, although slightly better, made-for-TV Generation X (X-men spin-off) movie. Starting with Blade, everything since has had a professionalism those early film forays lacked.

Spawn was ok.

Don't be an idiot. Spawn isn't Marvel.

But, being an idiot is what Im good at :smile: .

And just to forewarn other unaware people, the following comic books from which films/TV were made are also NOT Marvel: Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, The Flash, The Green Hornet, Green Lantern, Judge Dredd, Hellboy, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

DC comics had its perks, but will never overshadow marvel.

someday, i will have to dig out my comics and write down which ones i have..

i have about... 100 i guess, all in plastic sleeves, none in pristine condition, but at least they are getting no worse.

marvel always had the coolest events.. when i was collecting them it was "Inferno" involved every freaking character in the marvel universe..

' "move your big toe"...13 hours later...'

this really s**ts me -->some people said, walking out of the cinema "They didnt kill Bill". i mean JEBUZ!!! its the first of two volumes!!! Nearly everybody in the cinema was saying stuff like that...Gahh!!!

takes a breath

Dumb Fs

Seriously I think all people born here in West Australia are inherently moronic. And they cant merge. And they seriously think that daylight savings will fade their curtains. In all sincerity this was and still is a legitimate argument against D.S. i stopped larfing at this sorta idoicy a long time ago, now its just pathetic to see it continue... Im so glad i was born in NSW

im done ripping on West Aussies now Lep :smile:

O M G!! ! !11 1 1! 1

ROFL @ CASS. AVATAR!!111

Interesting detail: The yellow biker suit worn by Uma Thurman is an allusion to Bruce Lee's famous yellow sweater. In "fists of fury", a monument in Karate movies, he prefers the sweater, modern and practical, to the traditional kimono, and he choses a colour that doesn't mean anything (unlike red, or white, or black who have a certain symbolic significance). He wanted to be as free as possible from the ancient martial arts teachings.

Tarentino is probably using this cliche; in his own way, he's an anti-traditional too... not exactly like Bruce Lee though

yea, theres also those masks of the crazy88. kato's mask, who was a character played by bruce lee.

Cassius what happened to your beautiful face! I found that pic of you especially! Are you and skeletor seeing each other (I'm guessing from his hand posture in his avatar)?

OMG CASS THIEF!

yay!! another bruce lee fan than me :smile: !!

Yer but Skeletor who found teh pic of Heman to battle you?

Also have you noticed the pose Skeletor is doing in your pic?

And last of all, why does a skeleton have muscles? Surely skeletor should be all skinny and crap....

1.What?

2.Yes I have noticed. That's why I used this picture.

3. BEACUZ HE RAWKZS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!21!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would have to disagree with the second point. The picture clearly depicts Skeletor preparing for his Ubre-Leat Attack, which of course begins with standing in a pose that is blatantly homosexual. Now, here's my theory: born a skeletor, our villain Skeletor was rejected at superhero schools and started listening to punk music and writing poetry about the 'darkness... darkness... of his soul'. Skeletor was shunned by female classmates and ridiculed by males, and he decided to become a Catholic Priest.



Here we have pictured the looming Castle Grayskull, which of course, Our Hero fights to protect. During the course of the theme song of He-Man Adventures, Skeletor suddenly destroys the music when he attacks He-Man and the castle. However, I have discovered that secret messages are contained within the theme animation which only serve to prove my theory of Skeletor's homosexuality.



And there you have it.

Kain, that's all nice, except for the fact that it's a jumpsuit.

One reason why DC will never overshadow Marvel is that their characters are unbelievable. Secondly, Marvel characters live in REAL CITIES. The most believable DC character is Batman, however, batman is awesome.

Kevin, Spawn was a terrible piece of crap and you should be beaten for saying it was even okay :smile: .

As for all the s**tfest comic book movies, I know ... I know. However, thankfully now they're taking a second hand at it in a professional maner.

Don't count on Captain America being made any time soon though, as much as it would kick ass, and it would, it's tied up in so much legal paper work it probably wont be free any time soon.

Yeah, Blade did start the whole 'respect comic books dammit' thing. However, most people who 'love' that movie don't know its based on a comic book. But I must say, it's the best adaptation I've seen yet, because the comic book was terrible (by best adaptation I mean best and most sensable changes, thus adapted).

The new fantastic four looks like crap based on the casting. Paul "fast and furious" Walker gets the human torch ... that no talent ass clown. As bad as Fast and the Furious was ... he was the worst part ... and that's really really really sad.

I am very much looking forward to '06 because of X3 :smile:
However, Hayter (main writter for both Xmen and X2) says he doesn't want to include Gambit as a physical character because he's too much like wolverine and such. In one of the better storylines (in my opinion) Remy was Logan's son, and I thought that was awesome, in the same story line Logan was Victor Creed's son (Sabertooth). They're doing such a great job with the X-Men universe, to be honest. However, I heard that they only want to make 2 more Xmen films and then have that be that, and then immediatly schedual indipendant movies. Wolverine would be the first :rolleyes: (I think people have too much of a fixation on Wolverine, he's cool and all, but ... there are cooler characters)

And it's gonna be directed by a Hobbit! Or at least last I checked...

I never liked the Fantastic Four anyway ... they're too ... Fantastical ...

Cass, you're over-analyzing it. It's all illustrated perfectly in CKY4...

I really liked the spawn cartoon series (not so much can be said for the movie..), though I've never read the comcics so meh, what do I know.

Oh if only they'd remake the Heman film... How did Heman kill the golden skeletor when he got teh golden heman sword again?

He stabbed him in the nads.

Anyways back on topic.... why does Skeletor have muscles? His skull face aint a mask cus you can see through his jaw.

And how does he see? He has no eyeballs....
