    and watched it last night. I enjoyed it thoroughly, the dialog, the acting and most of all, the car chase at the end. Y'all should check it out, if'n you're about my age and dug all those dumb car chase movies from the 70s.

    Sam's Wholesale Club is hell on earth though, nobody needs to buy a case of strawberry flavored Hoo Hoo Pops, least of all you in the Hoveround with the self inflicted extra person or three around yer mid-section.

    I got it from wallyworld for 19 & change. I wish there was more tire squealing and less swaking from the bimbos. But the 20 minute long car chase kicked several kinds of ass.

    The bimbos yammering on and on was like the foreplay for the destruction that ensues an hour later. The first crash scene is very violent, almost as bad as when they were having a 50% off sale on adult diapers at CVS pharmacy last weekend.....oh the carnage!

    I watched that movie at the cinemas in the Palms across the sreet from the Gold Coast during VLV. Hot chicks and one of the best chase scenes ever filmed, good shit. I reckon I'll have to get myself a copy.

    Go Stuntman Mike...

    I saw this before the rest of the world at the Alamo Drafthouse the night before the premiere. I have to say, Quentin loves his words, and I thought the dialogue scenes were drawn-out. I haven't seen the uncut version but I'm looking forward to it, along with "Planet Terror", which I honestly dug alot more.
    Right before they released the movie last year, Rodriguez hosted a Alamo Roadshow downtown in Republic Park, showing a double feature of the two movies that influenced them the most when making "Grindhouse"- Lucio Fulci's "Zombi" and "Torso". If you watch "Torso", you'll see the parallels.

    Yeah, well maybe, compared to When Harry Met Sally, but watch it again, it'll grow on you, that dentally overbittten director/writer does love his words but the dialog really is funny.
     
  9. Is it just Deathproof, or is the other flick in there too? When I saw it in the theater, it was called Grindhouse....and was 2 movies packaged together...

    Just Deathproof and some other B movie which I haven't seen.

    I'm not a professional movie critic, I thought It's Pat was a 4 star classic.

    Well I gotta agree that what Bronson did with that roll of coins in a sock was pretty outstanding. And it's women's job job to talk and talk, shutting the fuck up is a good indication that they're either dead, asleep or have something in their mouth that's interfering.

    Are you kidding me? We had a greeter at ours that was of inderteminate sex, I was kinda gearing towards chick with dick, but someone told me that it was in fact a woman, a damn ugly one I must add.

    the movie had too much talking, but the burnout on the chicks face in the first car crash was pretty sweet

    His movies are getting to be a laundry list:

    Entended dialog sequence over food: check
    Obscure, hip, pop culture references: check
    Trunk perspective shot: check
    Obscure, but hip soundtrack: check
    References to previous movies (Red Apple cigs, lil Pussy Wagon): check
    Character (Sheriff) from previous movie: check

    In this movie, the usual 3 way shootout was rendered as a 3 way ass kicking.

    Still better than 99% of the shit that gets made these days. I'll own it when the proper Grindhouse release comes out. The trailers were to die for. I hear "Machete" will be made into a full blown movie.

    The chick who rode on the hood is a real stuntwoman and those scenes were shot at speed!

    Broke my heart to hear that they destroyed all those cars to make that movie though.

    I wished the lap dance scene had involved a lack of pants...you just know she would have been sporting a full blown muff!

    You forgot:

    Self-gratuitous foot fetish shots: Check.
    "Girl-power" empowerment: Check
    Cameo appearance: Check



    The movie isn't bad if you skip the looooooong, drawn out build-ups. Fast Forward is your friend.

    And if I was driving that car during the last chase scene, I'd do a bunch of crap differently... You don't go from driving that offensively to turning into a snively wimp in a few bumps.

    And I've ridden on the hoods of several cars, it isn't THAT wild of an idea.

    The challenger with welded on upper door frames so they could use the belts was a funny oversight....

    "Okay bring the car over so we can do the ship's mast scene, just loop the belts through the frames honey.....oooooohhhhh. Wait."

    need to make "Werewolf Women of the SS"...

    The lady who rode in the hood of the Challenger: that's a real woman

    Bring back 70's bush, then again, maybe not.

    Bring back the 70's bush on the top... keep the bottom clean for easy access... like a bush mullet... :D
     
  23. SPOILER ALERT! IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE DON'T READ THIS!



    I think the ending sucked. I wanted him to kill the second group of bitches more than the first. Except the cheerleader. She was the prettiest one. Actually, that means she should have been punished the most. Maybe I need more therapy, maybe not; it's not my fault pretty girls are all evil.

    By the way, I'm still looking to buy a non-descript van with no windows...

    I am a serious Tarantino fan, I got to watch this move saturday and I thought it rocked. And the part in the end where the 3 chicks kicked his ass ROCKED.

    Guess I'm still hooked on the World's Fastest Indian. Quentin's an aquired taste...subtle isn't really part of his language.
