Pulp Fiction = Good

What more of a mundane topic for my first thread?
If you newbie bashers must bash, go ahead. I care not.
For some reason the theme from Pulp Fiction has been stuck in my head for the past week.
As much as I think Quentin Terentino is a whiny incessent little pain in the ass, he makes good movies. What can I say? Resovouir Dogs was great. Sue Me.

If you like that, you should see Magnolia with Tom Cruise. It has the same type of story making only better.

Also, don’t confront people for your first post. It is a sure fire way to raise peoples hackles.

Welcome!

Grog must bash…

Actually, I just like how Tarantino gets his head blown off in half of his movies. Hey, it’s like they say in sales, find a need and fill it.

That is the weirdest movies i have ever seen. The number of scenes where i said WTF are mind boggling. Raining frogs??? WTF!!! otherwise a good movie. dito for PulpFiction.

Welcome to the board.

I LOVE Pulp Fiction! It completely and totally rocks. Welcome to the boards. :slight_smile:

I thought of viewing Magnolia 'cause it did sort of remind me of Pulp Fiction. It just seemed to have more purpose. If its a meaingless two and a half hour (+/-?) romp, I think I’d enjoy it. And Tom Cruise looks so hot in it…:slight_smile:

I’m ashamed to admit I’ve never seen Pulp Fiction…

Pulp Fiction is the ultimate “get drunk and watch at 2:00 AM” movie, due to such wonderful quotes as, “I shot Marvin in the face,” et al.

Two other good Pulp Fiction-like movies are Go! and 2 Days in the Valley.

You’re comparing “Go!”- a movie with that Dawson’s Creek you-know-what- to “Pulp Fiction”? Seriously…??

Nemo, you’re pretty fucked in the head if you think Go comes anywhere close, anywhere in the same galaxy as Pulp Fiction.

Bah.

friedo, don’t you mean to say…
“It ain’t no ballpark either. Look maybe your method of massage differs from mine, but touchin’ his lady’s feet, and stickin’ your tongue in her holyiest of holies, ain’t the same ballpark, ain’t the same league, ain’t even the same fuckin’ sport. Foot massages don’t mean shit.”

Yes. Pulp Fiction is good.

DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH?

…what?

GO AHEAD! SAY WHAT ONE MORE TIME! I DARE YOU!

…what?

Ahh, the memories.

Yes, Go! was a somewhat cheezy movie with an overly contrived plot, unlikely characters, and snappy-yet-unbelievable dialogue. But face facts, Pulp Fiction was a somewhat cheezy movie with an overly contrived plot, unlikely characters, and snappy-yet-unbelievable dialogue.

I could sit here and poke numerous holes in Pulp Fiction’s plot, script, and performances. But in fact, for all its flaws, it was a well made and enjoyable movie. And so was Go!. If you couldn’t just kick back and enjoy both movies it was nobody’s fault but your own.

The path of the righteous Doper is beset on all sides by the inequities of the Trollish and the tyranny of ignorance. Blessed is he, who in the name of Cecil Adams and Ed Zotti, shepherds the weak through the valley of The Pit, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost posters. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my Dopers. And you will know my name is the Cecil when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Pulp Fiction’s OK.

I’d sit through it again, though I’d cover my eyes before certain scenes (guy getting his head blown off because they hit a bump in the road, all the needle scenes), but I wouldn’t seek it out.

It’s not the best movie ever made, it’s not even Tarantino’s best (that honour goes to Resevoir Dogs), but it’s a good movie.

BWAAHAHAHAAAAA :smiley:

Thanks, that was classic!
