You guys have seen Pulp Fiction, right?

Pulp fiction is one of those films where you spot something new every time you watch it, it really is a pleasure spotting all the quirks in the narrative, and it's a laugh at the same time, love hearing those classic lines that sound so pointless in another context but make so much sense in pulp fiction, the quarter pounder incident comes to mind at this point.

Death proof to me was a massive let down, I got completely the wrong impression about what this film was going to be about, I was under the impression the car was going to be a major player in the film, protecting it's owner, played by kurt russell, but in the end, we got a pretty boring film that consisted of two 'beat-em-up' scenes spliced inbetween a bunch of people talking about garbage for two hours, but that's just my opinion, I was just really let down by death proof...

But Pulp Fiction rocked of course! :lol:

So true. I think I'm gonna have to convince Falco to have a Pulp Fiction night with me this week, cuz now I'm craving a quarter pounder incident.

EDIT: I think my work is blocking me from copying and pasting that image, but you know what I mean XD

I borrow this movie from the library Sunday night and watched most of it with my roommate and a friend. We had to stop at the part where the guy is telling them how to clean out the car (due to prior engagements).

The first apartment scene is freakin hilarious, and of course all of the bruce willis scenes, but in between those two parts the movie was duller than any movie I've ever seen before. There's a good hour or so of, "Wow......... this movie is soo boring". I wonder if you guys just watch for the nostalgia and the good parts, or did you actually enjoy those parts?

At least I finally understand that Guess Who joke...
