One of my all time favourite films, I've lost count of how many times I've watched it. I remember the first time I saw it in theatres. It was under the worst possible conditions, we missed the first 15 minutes, it was in a second run $1.00 theatre full of noisy people (some with little kids. Huh???) and my friend was bored and restless in his seat. Despite all this, I was absolutely riveted in my seat for the two plus hours that I did see. Time just flew by, I became completely unaware of my surroundings and 100% engrossed in the movie (it's a rare film that has that strong of an affect on me). I immediately wanted to see it again. I was a Tarantino fan since I first saw Reservoir Dogs, but after this film, QT could do no wrong in my book. Great great film.

A great, great movie. It has more ebergy than just about any movie I've ever seen. It also has probably my favorite poster of all time.

[hobub]

Awesome movie. I've only seen it a couple times but it was great.

I also liked Sin City, which isn't the same but reminds me of it's style.

That Summer, I was all about Forrest Gump. Disregarded PF as a fad. I got dragged to a showing at the dollar theater and walked out thinking, "Boy, was I wrong about this one!". Since then, I don't think I have seen Forrest Gump once, but I have watched PF countless times.

It was a big battle between those two films at the Academy Awards in 1994. Unfortunately, Gump won. But in the long run, PULP FICTION will definitely stand as the most memorable/influential/relevant of the two films. Hell, that's already the case now.

I've always thought of FOUR ROOMS as a mixed bag. Allison Anders and Alexandre Rockwell's segments are mostly forgettable, Robert Rodriguez's segment is brilliant, and QT's segment, a quasi-remake of "The Man from Rio" from Alfred Hitchcock Presents, features very hammy acting performances but is still charming with a great payoff ending. Tim Roth is enjoyable thoughout the whole film.

My favourite QT film is KILL BILL Vol.1, it just blew me away when I saw it. (Vol 2 isn't shabby either). And I'm really looking forward to INGLOURIUS BASTERDS this year.

I like Tarantino, and his movies are outstanding, but his work is very obviously influenced by Jim Jarmusch. And maybe Sergio Leone...

Check out Jarmusch's Mystery Train.

BIG BIG PF fan here....now excuse me while I help myself to a Big Kahuna Burger and a tasty beverage to wash it down

I Love Pulp Fiction.

I remember the first time that I saw it. It blew my mind. It had everything that I was looking for in a movie at that time. Me and my friends use to watch it on a regular basis. At one point I had so many of the lines memorized.

Another favorite movie of mine is Kill Bill vol 1 & 2. Wow! It has the Master Killer and an homage to the Shaw Bros not to mention a great story and alot of action. How awesome is that

At least Samuel L. Jackson didn't show up as Nick Fury and start quoting the bible.
