Kill Bill Vol. 1

He’s definitely one of those guys funded by Ballantine.

I wasn't even talking about that guy's post...

last night, and I can't stop smiling.
absolutely perfect 🙂

and I've been listening to the soundtrack all afternoon 😁

Do you have the soundtrack? How much does it cost at a local shop if you bought an original copy?

Justin Patel said:Do you have the soundtrack? How much would it go for at Walmart if you picked up an original copy?

Sorry, I actually have no clue on the price—I downloaded it online ages ago—but man, it didn't really hit me properly until I finally sat down and watched the movie.

For me, the standout track is "Boots" by Nancy Sinatra... how long is the total runtime for the album?

Justin Patel said:ugh, that Scary Movie 3 trailer... reminds me of that one scene from the movie The Others... where the mom is looking for her kid, and there's someone under a sheet in the room, she pulls it back and it's Michael Jackson... that feels more like some creepy predator vibe, and he's just like... I didn't do anything... but she's just a little girl!!!

I totally lost it laughing at that... 😂 😂 Or like when Pamela Anderson gets that wedgie... omg, so hilarious... 😁 😁

And as for Kill Bill... 👍 😎

I'm starting to think Scary Movie 3 might actually be decent, and the Wayans brothers definitely have their thing going (even if they just rely on drug jokes and racial stereotypes, which aren't even funny),,,,but hey, maybe the third one will be better, though I highly doubt it,,, those stupid trailers are always way too well-made.

ahm Kill Bill rules big time.... 🙂

Justin Patel said:Not even the GNN post...

Fine. Let's assume GNN drives people to alcoholism.

rapidstag74 said:Sure, CNN is just driving everyone straight to the liquor store.

Actually, no—just look at his last post on this thread before I added my two cents. It’s not even a big deal... and I'm definitely not an alcoholic, just occasionally... 🙂

That’s really something one ought to take into consideration

Justin Patel said:No, look at his last post on this thread first. I was just adding my two cents after that. And for the record, I'm no alcoholic—just a social drinker from time to time. 🙂

I know what you meant. I was just messing with you.🙂

Justin Patel said:No, seriously, just look at his last post in this thread; I was simply adding my own two cents. And for the record, I’m hardly an alcoholic—just a casual enthusiast from time to time.🙂

Ah, damn, I was actually going to ask if I could add that to my signature. Oh well. In any case, it seems I’m not the only one getting hyped for The Last Samurai.😁

Just to channel that specific energy again—topic: MAN, I CANNOT WAIT TO WATCH KILL BILL!

casualotter21 said:Ah, shoot, I was actually going to ask if I could put that in my signature. Oh well. In any case, looks like I'm not the only one hyped for The Last Samurai. 😁

To stay even slightly on topic—MAN, I CANNOT WAIT TO REWATCH KILL BILL!

I have no idea what you were planning to put in your signature...
My avatar is staying the same until the US premiere, though I might switch it up for the holidays... and how could anyone *not* be hyped for The Last Samurai? It’s got "Samurai" in the title, Tom Cruise plays a samurai, he's in Japan acting as a samurai, it's set in the 19th century, it's a serious film, features a hot bar scene and a hot Japanese woman, etc.

Yeah, Kill Bill.
I can't wait to go watch it again either, because I simply must. But it wasn't exactly a difficult decision...

And apparently, it only made 24 million, supposedly because of those snowy blizzards in The Last Samurai.
Plus, it's a story about honor and courage all wrapped into one man, ahm1_...

I’m heading in to watch it tonight....
🎉

casualotter21 said:Does anyone know what tickets are going for? I heard during that "opening week" they're charging $12 per person... feels like a bit much when you can see the exact same movie in the same theater for just $6.75.

That might be true on Broadway... but at MoMA, it’s $8.25....😉

So, I finally sat down and watched it last night....
The movie is absolutely insane!!!

That’s just how Quentin Tarantino does it...
He’s definitely matured a bit—it doesn't have that raw, unrefined edge it used to—but honestly, I loved this.
Every single scene felt brilliant...
There are so many perfectly composed, meticulously crafted shots...

The atmosphere is constant, and the soundtrack? Man, 👍 👍 👍

To movie was just plain stupid, honestly—I actually had to stop watching after about 25 minutes because I couldn't take it anymore.👎

Based on the Kill Bill trailer, this looks like total garbage to me. But hey, I guess you shouldn't judge a book by its cover until you actually sit down and watch it.

Honestly, you can't really tell anything about a movie just from the trailer... it could end up being worse than the teaser or way better... The Matrix Reloaded was actually a step down... and they totally messed up the trailer for Kill Bill

The trailer is alright with me; I've seen plenty of them, but I'm not exactly missing anything here.

So, I checked out the trailer for Kill Bill today...
And then last night, I actually sat down and watched the movie...

I have to say, that trailer was absolute crap !!
With Tarantino, the atmosphere is everything...
But you just can't feel any of that vibe from a few "mixed together" clips...

Honestly, the Kill Bill trailer is just bad because it makes the whole thing look like some low-budget, knock-off version of Fast and Furious 🙄, when the actual film is pure genius!
