Pulp Fiction

I fianlly saw this yesterday. I wish I hadn’t waited so long! What a great flick!

Lines from the movie that stand out: (sorry if I get the quotes wrong - I’ve only seen it once!)

“Oh, I’m sorry! Did that distract you?”

“Keep cool, hunny-bunny.”

“It was a miracle.”

At least now a number of Simpsons jokes will start making sense to you, as happened to a friend of minre who finally got around to seeing Citizen Kane.

“Well that would have to be one charmin’ motherfuckin pig”

“Oh, well, allow me to retort!” – Jules Winfield

I liked this film a great deal back in '94. The couple times I’ve seen it since then, it has not held up as well, but it is full of fun dialogue, I’ll grant you that.

HATED HATED HATED Fabienne from the get-go, though.

Me too. After the fiasco of forgetting his grandfther’s watch, Butch probably wished he had taken the cab driver with him. That was my take on it anyway.

Well, it’s Christmas, so I guess it’s time to wake up the Gimp. :eek: :wink:

Oddly enough, I just rewatched it last night. You might want to pop over to the "Tarantino a “sick fuck?” thread currently also residing here, if you want to contribute your thoughts.

My one problem with this movie is Tarantino as Jimmie. He’s JUST not a good actor, and it detracts from that scene, IMO.

What ain’t no country I ever heard of. Do they speak English in What?

While I agree with you (which is also a reason preventing me from watching Destingy Turns on the Radio, that and I hate Dylan McDermott), QT does have one of the best exchanges in the whole movie (paraphrased):

"No, let me ask you a question. When you came pulling in here, did you see a sign out in front of my house that said “Dead Nigger Storage?”

[no]

“Cause it ain’t there, 'cause storing dead niggers ain’t my fucking business, that’s why!”

And, in terms of comedic timing with the best use of a prop, I offer this:

Pumpkin: Which one is your wallet?
Jules: It’s the one that says “Bad Motherfucker”
[Shows wallet with Bad Motherfucker on it]

Ever see it on Bravo? Doesn’t quite stand up with all the editing…

I dunno about that. I think I’d rather get to work on helping Fabby acquire her sexy pot belly than live with the cabbie’s singular obsession every day.

What?

English, motherfucker, do you speak it?!

Jules: “It ain’t the same thing.”
Vincent: “Lemme ask you something. You good at giving foot massages?”
Jules: “Shit. I’m the master at foot massages. Got my technique down. Don’t tickle or nuthin’.”
Vincent: “Okay. So…” smile “Would you give a man a foot massage?”
Jules: pause “Fuck you.”

My favorite bit of trivia is that Mace Windu’s lightsabre has BMF engraved on the handle.

Phoenix has a GM proving ground nearby so I’ve seen disguised vehicles once in a while. Once on the street I saw an SUV that was covered in black naugahyde. I don’t mean like a padded roof I mean like a car bra that covered every square inch of sheet metal. Nothing but black faux leather and zippers with only windows and lights exposed. The Gimpmobile.

“I don’t know if it’s worth five dollars but that’s one pretty good fuckin’ milkshake.” The waitresses at 5 and Diner hate that one.

“Hey, you. Flock of Saegulls…”

Anyone know what The Wolf was doing when he first got called? Was he in a hotel room? Why was he in a tux that early in the morning? Who were the other people in the background?

The script identifies it as a hotel room, with gambling in the background.

Sir Rhosis

Four minutes?! I love this board. Thanks!

Jules - Ezekiel 25:17 - The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
BLAM, BLAM, BLAM - BLAM!
Have the sound track. :smiley:
