I have a ton of things to do today and very little time in front of the computer, so I’ll churn this out and pretty it up later.
Ghic Chic Hollywood Video had NOTHING in- so I watched Death Proof and Quint continues to disappoint in a way that you feel you’re now watching something he created out of a sheer boredom stemming from a conversation at a pool party whilst drunk and thought, “Yeah! I should totally do that!” and of course everyone at the party hopped on board and they made it that afternoon. I don’t think it was supposed to be released to the public as horrible as it was.
Mad Movie Guy well it was part of a whole experience, and the suits split it up for the DVD release
… I am in no way defending him
Ghic Chic Sounds like you are! The plot was just silly and he took what he thought was the appeal of Pulp Fiction and recreated it there. It had so many inconsistencies in his formulas that it came off as a painful attempt
Mad Movie Guy Thats the thing though, he made pulp fiction so now no one judges him correctly
Mad Movie Guy its pathetic he hasnt made anything watchable for over 10 years
Ghic Chic Exactly! He got lucky with some elements he used in that film and due to his failures it’s like he wanted to throw it all in this one. Off beat conversations which (yawn) were just moronic and done better in Clerks et al., he over used retro references in which he basically started to show boat his knowledge of long ago forgotten film/cars/actors etc.
Ghic Chic It wasn’t a film, it was a struggling ego
Mad Movie Guy Personally, I dont even think pulp fiction is any thing great
Mad Movie Guy resavoir dogs was his first and only movie that I will watch
Ghic Chic It wasn’t- but when it first came out, I appreciated the initial feel. I hadn’t seen Reservoir Dogs, I hadn’t seen much of anything as I was FINALLY starting to settle down after a long period of travel, relocating etc. So I have to admit I thought it was pretty good. And it stopped there (with the exception of RD)
Mad Movie Guy he sucks, Im so sick of him
Mad Movie Guy he thinks he is film god too
Mad Movie Guy and unfortunatly the masses buy into it as every thing he shits turns to gold
Ghic Chic Uh huh, which two okay films over a decade ago- if they allowed actual talent to make it to distribution by big named studios, then the masses wouldn’t hold onto such crap.
Mad Movie Guy yeah its sad
Mad Movie Guy same thing happens with music
Ghic Chic The film seriously reminded me of when I was little and I drew pictures- TONS of them, but I drew one of a horse and that got attention… I didn’t care for drawing horses… but I started to churn out a ton of the same element hoping for the same reaction. Needless to say, I no longer draw horses.
Mad Movie Guy I wouldnt know
Mad Movie Guy im done with him
Mad Movie Guy no level of bordom out there will get me to a point where I say to myself “hey, Ill watch QT’s latest”
Ghic Chic I let curiosity get the better of me
Ghic Chic I think I’ll just copy/paste this as my review so I don’t have to relive the movie again by actually thinking about it later on tonight
Mad Movie Guy Sometimes we should trust the jesse
Ghic Chic I know!!!!!!!!
Mad Movie Guy I have yesterdays window still open so I could copy paste you that for your review as well
Ghic Chic Which review was that?
Mad Movie Guy where I told you not to watch it and we ranted about kill bill
(YESTERDAY)
Ghic Chic Have you seen Death Proof?
Mad Movie Guy no
Ghic Chic Trying to find something to rent tonight- figured I’d see that one.
Ghic Chic Since there’s no opinion, I might as well be the first
Mad Movie Guy oh oh oh
Mad Movie Guy hold that thought
Mad Movie Guy I have an opinion
Ghic Chic lol k
Ghic Chic I want to use my free rental on something worth while
Mad Movie Guy Tarantino should be kicked out of hollywood for making movies with his head so far up his own ass
Ghic Chic lmao
Mad Movie Guy I hate him so much, I would never watch that movie
Mad Movie Guy hes a hack
Mad Movie Guy yet “praised” as a genuis
Ghic Chic I some how knew you’d say something like that about it (being as Quinton’s named attached) I was waiting for it
Ghic Chic People still see him as genius?
Mad Movie Guy he directed it… thats worse than those movies he attaches his names too just to boost the sales
Ghic Chic I figured due to him completely drowning he might churn out something decent. Unless I was the only one who hated Kill Bill
Mad Movie Guy Nope
Mad Movie Guy ill always be with you on that boat
Mad Movie Guy and my roommate ross is with us
Ghic Chic lol YAY! I’ve had heated arguements over that one as well
Mad Movie Guy but across america fanboys kiss his ass, and it drives me nuts
Mad Movie Guy god
Mad Movie Guy I get heated just thinking about it
Ghic Chic Breatheeeeeeeeeeee okay- any other flick from here?

Mad Movie Guy Kill Bill was so bad I didnt even try vol 2 (which I heard was worse) and Im an anal freak about movies and books and tv shows, if i watch one I gotta watch the rest
Ghic Chic I think I started with 2 as I refused to see 1 but an idiot I was dating at the time rented it- it was so terrible that I didn’t care to see the first… and I always need to know the beginning
Mad Movie Guy I would rather watch “Snoop Dog’s Hood of Horror’” than DeathProof
Ghic Chic Could be campy fun (ugh- sounds painful)
So there you have it. I hated Death Proof.
