Side of Pulp Please

I love Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. Love their movies. Love the soundtracks, a great mixture of old and odd tracks which really set the feel of his movies (I have Kill Bill Vol. 1 in my car). Just love the mixture of camp with a modern twist, though sometimes I think that I'm a little twisted for really enjoying their movies which tend to be ... oh ... a smidge violent. My husband doesn't like the dialogue in Tarantino movies but I love that the best. It's fun. It's different. It's on the edge. Yeah, sometimes it's stuff that no one would say. But most of it is normal conversation boiled down to the bare minimum and put in a scene which is anything but normal (take the foot massage conversation in Pulp Fiction or Mr. Pink's monologue on how he doesn't tip). The latest movie is Grindhouse coming out on April 6. Its actually two movies in one: Planet Terror (Rodriguez) and Death Proof (Tarantino). Totally gritty look and feel. And the best part ... Rose McGowan is an amputee missing a leg which she replaces with a machinegun and proceeds to blow everyone away. How cool is that!?!

Yes, I'm a total dork.

If I could be in any movie, I'd love to be in a Tarantino film or be a James Bond girl. Ah, to have a pipe dream. Anyone have a favorite director? Anyone wish they could be in certain movies?

Kill Bill favorite quotes:

O-Ren Ishii: You didn't think it was gonna be that easy, did you?
The Bride: You know, for a second there, yeah, I kinda did.
O-Ren Ishii: Silly rabbit. Trix are for kids.

The Bride: As I said before, I've allowed you to keep your wicked life for two reasons. And the second reason is so you can tell him in person everything that happened here tonight. I want him to witness the extent of my mercy by witnessing your deformed body. I want you to tell him all the information you just told me. I want him to know what I know. I want him to know I want him to know. And I want them all to know they'll all soon be as dead as O-Ren.
