And it's coming to the UK, nothing scheduled at my local cinema for that date yet though.

Is it just the two halves in one or some changes/additional content? Hopefully the black and white fight scene is now in colour as I think that was available on one of the limited editions or in other markets.

Wouldn't mind seeing Pulp Fiction in chronological order just to see how it played out start to end. Guess it's not as interesting so they've not bothered doing it.

My daughter loves this film and I spent a fortune on those yellow trainers she wears for her. Unfortunately she's not quite old enough to see it at the cinema so she will be gutted.

Although I took both kids to 15s at the cinema before they were and no one asked so might risk it.

Thanks. The changes are mostly 'meh' except the black and white fight scene is now in colour.

Now just waiting for the Pulp Fiction Chronological Cut. hehe

Seems a bit odd. Do people still think plagarism machine tarantino is good?
Maybe all the people unaware of the obscure films he saw in his rental shop,and those that like the dialog thats just people saying things like they are in a different film.

Nothing different to hollywood remaking some films originally released in 'foreign', e.g. The Ring, or like how A Fistful of Dollars is a remake of Yojimbo, though ironically they still had to dub it into english due to how it was produced. Besides there's very little originality coming out of Hollywood for a long time now.

I did buy The Inglorious bds on dvd thinking I had a bargain, until I realised it was the 1978 original and not the Tarantino remake. Should have checked the spelling as at least they give a big clue in that. hehe

I see Tarantino as a "hiphop director". What I mean is he 'samples' great work in obscure works of art and we uses them like an old school hiphop producer would sample a vintage breakbeat and re-use it in a new creative way. Some more obvious than others.

Like this vintage of hiphop/rap music Tarantino's mismash of styles is not for everyone.

Given attendance figures at cinemas these days, they will probably be so pleased to see you that they wouldn’t even bother asking.

What an edgy take. rolleyes

For anyone who doesn't want to sit in the theatre for that long it looks like it's getting a 4k release from Lionsgate, which is great news. Treat it as a rumour for now as it's unconfirmed, but it is showing as coming to Apple TV so you'll very definitely be able to watch it at home one way or another.

I took my 10 year old daughter and 6 year old son into My Bloody Valentine - we were cheerfully waved in by an usherette. The first advert was for Durex and I did wonder briefly if this was appropriate for children. It was only after the first beheading that I realised we had wandered into the wrong screen and it wasn't the kids film I had booked.

How we laughed.

Terrifier 1 and 2 double bill before 3 was released. Ads and trailers done, the film is just starting with the interview on TV. Doors open and a mum and kids walk in... "Ok up you go, row..." People in the front row get up and stop them "No, no, you're in the wrong screen, wrong film!!". The mum is fine with this "Ok kids, out we go, come on"

That's the closest I've seen to bad stuff happening with people in the wrong screen.

When my wife was out one evening many years ago, I let all four of my children, (6–16) watch, Life of Brian.

How they laughed and how they enjoyed the film! Several have seen the film more than once now. You can’t start their education early enough in my opinion.

Kill Bill though, hmmm, not my cup of tea, thought it was a little boring…

O/T I recall going to Super 8 with my son and his friends, they were perhaps 9-10 at the time. Classified a PG13 afaik. All was sweet until the one and only time they swore, something like fk you! I turned to my son and his eyes had almost popped out of his head!

Saw this at my local cinema on Friday. I'd say the place was about a third full, not bad for film(s) that are a couple of decades old.

The extra scenes in the new cut are a bit of a mixed bag. The anime addition is a change of style and quite long (10+ minutes). The studio heard Tarantino say publicly that he'd want to include it some day, so they animated it without being asked. The original was almost rotoscoped and quite dreamlike with things like O-Ren catching the "whimper" in her hands. The new part is still stylised but different than the rest of the animation, it's almost like Peter Chung did it. It always was a bit of a lurch to switch suddenly to animation and while it works for me, I appreciate it might not work for everyone.

The full colour Blue Leaves scene is a bit ridiculous as it reaches Python levels of dismemberment and blood spray, I know Tarantino can never have enough violence so you just have to sit back and watch 88 (ish) people suffer life-changing injuries. It is quite fun watching the invincible Hanzo sword demolish everyone. Also, the same guy plays the leader of the Yakuza gang as well as Pai Mei, which I hadn't paid enough attention to learn until now.

Something that stuck with me was how great the action choreography is and how much effort they put in, but Uma Thurman is so small and slight I caught myself thinking she'd never be able to chop all these people up, she's tiny. I did not have the same disbelief reaction while watching Carrie-Anne Moss beat the crap out of people in The Matrix, so who knows smile
