My point wasn’t that every reference in PF was a term of endearment. My point was the (over)use of the “N word” in a non-derogatory fashion can be justified in film because it is a valid reflection of what happens in “real” life. Using “Kike” or some other slur that is NOT used in a non-derogatory manner in “real” life would be much more subject to scrutiny. Sorry for not making that clear in my first post.

psychomonkey, Screenit.com counted only around 133, conceding that the rapid-fire delivery of the words made it difficult to count. Anyone have a third site? If it says it in two places on the internet it must be true! 
Ill concede, although I can come up with just about as many backing mine up, although, Ill buy IMDB’s count.
Pulp Fiction was a great movie. And the Yugo was a great car.
Why did Tarantino use the “n” word so often? He couldn’t do any better.
