What is your favorite Tarantino film? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

burntmonkey · 10-15-2003, 04:48 PM

Okay, folks, which Tarantino film is the best?

Reservoir Dogs
From Dusk To Dawn
Pulp Fiction
Jackie Brown
Kill Bill (haven't seen it yet--please, no spoilers!)

LaZy · 10-15-2003, 05:17 PM

pulp fiction because its pulp fiction.

Anomaly_ · 10-15-2003, 05:19 PM

I wouldn't consider From Dusk Till Dawn a Tarantino movie and I don't think Tarantino does either; he did have a part in the writing (and acting of course) but he didn't direct it. I can't decide between Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown as favorites go. Pulp Fiction has unforgettable, engaging dialogue and weaves the story of three parties really well. Jackie Brown is a lot more sincere than Tarantino's other films and still manages to have a frantic plot and good dialogue. I haven't seen Kill Bill yet but I'm trying not to build it up to unattainable standards.

burntmonkey · 10-15-2003, 05:34 PM

Yeah, I wasn't sure about that one. That would explain the subheader on Kill Bill:

Quentin Tarantino's Fourth Film

bundy · 10-15-2003, 06:11 PM

i had to pick Pulp FIction... but that may change since i´m about to go and see Kill Bill.

Mr. Spacemonkey · 10-15-2003, 07:04 PM

Pulp Fiction baby!

mattevil · 10-15-2003, 07:34 PM

i like pulp fiction the best. but why isn't true romance listed?

Astrocloud · 10-15-2003, 10:19 PM

I had to go with Kill Bill... Even though I feel that True Romance (which he wrote and didn't produce) and even Killing Zoey (which he produced but didn't write) are better movies.

Kill Bill is a wild ride into a red-wet katana.

Has anyone seen "FOUR ROOMS story.4" -he supposed wrote, directed, produced, -etc. that one.

Chingal0 · 10-15-2003, 10:37 PM

Four Rooms was kinda odd. A bit like Pulp Fiction, but not even close to Pulp. Im pretty sure (its been awhile) 'Four rooms' had 4 directors, each with their own room in a hotel, and the blah blah whatever else that went with that. Kinda boring.

Oh yea, voted for Pulp Fiction

YaWhateva · 10-15-2003, 10:47 PM

I had to go Kill Bill, i just cant get over how good it is. I love Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown and Reservoir Dogs though.

Batman976 · 10-15-2003, 11:37 PM

Tarantino did the fourth room in Four Rooms. That movie is very strange. The first room is crap, but they get better after that one. It's painfully obvious which room is Tarantino's. I'd say it's worth checking out though.. it's very funny at times.

As far as the subject on hand, I think I'm too hard pressed to choose. I like all of them for different reasons. I haven't seen Kill Bill either, so I wouldn't feel right voting anyway.

Xiangsu · 10-16-2003, 01:52 AM

I liked Four Rooms, but its been ages since I've seen it. I just saw True Romance the other day and I thought it was pretty good. I voted for Pulp Fiction. It was really tough between Pulp Fiction and Resevoir Dogs, I really liked both of them. Kill Bill has been good so far, but I'm not saying anything until I see the second part.

Macheath · 10-16-2003, 03:22 AM

Well, I'll put in a vote for Reservoir Dogs. Stylish, harrowing and gritty with great performances. Tim Roth played one of the best gunshot victims ever.

wondash · 10-16-2003, 04:20 AM

Pulp Fiction, with Kill Bill a close second!

Kadath · 10-16-2003, 05:28 AM

Reservoir Dogs. I have not seen Kill Bill or Jackie Brown, though, so my vote's pretty useless.

Gortexfogg · 10-16-2003, 05:36 AM

Pulp Fiction definately. It's just a great film.

JohnnyRock · 10-16-2003, 05:37 AM

voted for Resevoir dogs, but probably because I just watched it this weekend. Can really vote for any and not be wrong [haven't seen Kill Bill yet, have to wait for the DVD--ah, the joys of being a new parent!]

almostaugust · 10-16-2003, 07:30 AM

Yeah Pulp Fiction for me.

burntmonkey · 10-16-2003, 08:37 AM

I think each film has a uniqueness and appeal of its own.

For me, Pulp Fiction was the best. The Uma/Travolta dance was quite memorable and the best quotable dialogue:

Fabienne: Whose motorcycle is this?
Butch: It's a chopper, baby.
Fabienne: Whose chopper is this?
Butch: It's Zed's.
Fabienne: Who's Zed?
Butch: Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead.

krazixs · 10-16-2003, 09:05 AM

See I'm going to have to go with Resvoir Dogs here that was my all time favorite

punx1325 · 10-16-2003, 10:26 AM

I thought kill bill was the best just because it had everything in it you needed for a movie. I never like pulp fiction because of John Travolta. I know some people would shoot me for saying that, but I just can't stand the guy.

more fire · 10-16-2003, 10:51 AM

pulp fiction. absolutely classic.

lordjeebus · 10-16-2003, 11:49 AM

pulp fiction is the only movie i could watch 10 or 50 times and not get tired of. other tarantino movies are great too though, just not as great.

Kyp · 10-16-2003, 01:16 PM

I voted Resevoir Dogs. I haven't seen Jackie Brown but I doubt that would change my opinion. I'm not a big Tarantino fan. Resevoir Dogs seemed like the only movie with a point, but that's just me.

ghezzo · 10-16-2003, 02:17 PM

Pulp Fiction without a doubt although its funny stumbled across this thread cuz in about 2 hours im gonna go see Kill Bill. Maybe ill have to come back and update my opinion but for now! definetly Pulp Fiction

bundy · 10-16-2003, 06:24 PM

ok, i am officially changing my vote.

i initially voted for Pulp Fiction, i´m now changing my mind and voting for Kill Bill.

i saw this yesterday, and was absolutely blown away.

Scipio · 10-16-2003, 06:26 PM

Pulp Fiction won best picture. It has Samuel L. Jackson. It has John Travolta. It has Uma Thurman. It's funny and freaking good. Top 3 of all time for me.

maximusveritas · 10-16-2003, 07:40 PM

Reservoir Dogs, no doubt about it. The only Tarantino film I like.

Derwood · 10-17-2003, 09:23 AM

Reservoir Dogs, though I haven't seen Kill Bill yet.

World's King · 10-17-2003, 10:34 AM

Reservoir Dogs.

"Are you gonna bark all day little doggie, or are you gonna bite?"

GSRIDER · 10-17-2003, 10:41 AM

I went w/ Pulp.... it was close between that and dogs.

And if you're gonna include From Dusk Til Dawn shouldn't Natural Born Killers be included?

I thought he did a large chunk of writing for that.

And Golden Girls

^Ice_Bat^ · 10-17-2003, 09:35 PM

Pulp fiction is definately the classic that will never die, although Kill Bill ranks a close second.

Loup · 10-18-2003, 03:12 AM

Pulp Fiction
Have not seen Kill Bill yet.
I have liked them all so far.

Stare At The Sun · 10-18-2003, 07:33 AM

Saw Kill Bill last night, though great, it is still not better than pulp.

Pulp>All

Porkchop · 10-20-2003, 02:32 AM

Very close but would say Dogs that one ive watched most on dvd anyway.

happymaan · 11-12-2003, 06:14 PM

I love Jackie Brown. The woman is so smart, sexy, and in control of everything.

I also love that she's black but they never make a big deal about that.

crow_daw · 11-12-2003, 08:17 PM

Well, I love Pulp Fiction, but I think that all of Tarantino's films are brilliant.

Kostya · 11-13-2003, 05:00 AM

I think it's only fair to go with Pulp Fiction here, though I feel that both Kill Bill and Resevoir Dogs are brilliant films.

Also, while I rate Kill Bill equally with Pulp Fiction, I think it's only fair to wait until Volume 2 is released next year before making any calls on it.

Tarantino rules though.

Aaron0000 · 11-13-2003, 12:50 PM

It's a toss up between Pulp and Reservoir Dogs, but I think I will go with Reservoir Dogs.

hahaha · 11-13-2003, 12:52 PM

I'm leaning towards Kill Bill, but Ive got to see volume 2 first.
