  • I think it’s how it is a b-movie that is actually good that makes it and other Tarantino movies so compelling. It is low budget fluff (or well, pulp) done on a high budget with more thought put into it than is incidentally apparent.

    This question reminded me of how the Swedish movie Slim Susie put it. It begins in a movie theatre where they’re watching Pulp Fiction but the movie stops at the half way point because the theatre had only gotten the first film roll. To placate the audience the theatre owner phones his buddy to ask how Pulp Fiction ends: John Travolta dies, but at least the black guy survives.

  • If you’re not making posts that the community members want to see, then they are justified in downvoting you so that they do their part to influence the culture of the community.
