When I saw the Matrix Reloaded, there was one scene I really liked, which was the fight between Neo and all the Agent Smiths -- The rest of the movie was a bit of a yawn.

Anyway, I saw Kill Bill last night, and the fight between Uma and the Crazy 88 gang shat all over the Wachowskis' pissy fight scenes.

This movie was cool; and by cool, I mean totally sweet.

Next March or something.

I've been meaning to see this for a while now.  Every single person seems to say the same thing: "Well, it's not really a GREAT movie, but the style is awesome and the whole thing kicks ass."  I figure I can't go wrong with that.

Kill Bill was cool.. I wanna see it again. It was pretty cheesy... in a good way :)

Yeah, I like cheese, when it's done right :P


About the matrix? what was that all about? it was all one big musical.. except the music was fighting.. and almost every scene had something completely unnecessary, like new star wars.

netmonkey, you're right on the money -- it was cheesy, but that's cause (IMHO) it was a big pisstake on all those cheesy Hong Kong action films.

And it's such a great pisstake that it's a piece of art.

Everything Tarantino loves about films is in Kill Bill.

In fact, I have this image in my mind of Hitchcock alive and dandy, watching that huge fight scene and laughing his chubby arse off.

And that's what I call REAL ULTIMATE POWER!

This is the greatest film you will see this year. The greatest film you'll have seen for AGES. It's absolutly utterly brilliant.

Although it looks like an insanely stylish film, all the ultraviolence I hear about turns me off. I'm not a fan of violence in movies... I guess I think about it to much. When I see someone getting hurt the first thing I think about is, "What would that feel like if it was happening to me?" Damn me and my stupid thinking.
Hmm....

Obviously, this doesn't apply to our forum members under 18. Remember, kids, although seeing sex on screen won't make you want to have sex, seeing violence on screen will make you want to kill someone.  ;D ;)

I was a fan of Tarantino before it became trendy to be a fan of his.  (I'm not saying it's a bad thing he became famous, so let's not start that debate again!!)

It seemed to me (until '97) that QT could do no wrong!  But then came Jackie Brown which was the biggest pile of dung!  If it wasn't for Sam Jackson that might have gone down as one of the most boring movies I've ever seen!  I thought QT had lost his touch and I haven't seen a movie of his since.  Now I don't mind slow movies (if they're interesting) but this movie just put me to sleep.

Soo ... seeing all the previews/hype for Kill Bill I was skeptical ... but now I think I'll go see it because you guys have praised it enough to make me give QT another chance!

The Matrix Reloaded ... well, I think it was quite good actually.  I don't really understand everybodies complaints about it.  The fight scene with the Smiths looked fake (though it was incredibly awesome ... just looked fake).  I think people don't like all the talking and plot developing.  But I think, in the end (after Revolutions), it'll only make it a stronger trilogy with more depth and scope.

Just my opinion, but I look for more (now-a-days) in movies than just fast action.

And SSH is right!  All the violence in the world comes from the movies (and video games!!)

I thought Jackie Brown was great -- Forget Sam L Jackson, though, cause the guy's been doing the same "cool angry black man" crap since Pulp Fiction made him a name.

No, the thing that really made Jackie Brown was Robert Forster as Max Cherry -- He was totally in control and so damn smooth.

Speaking of Forster and Elmore Leonard adaptations, he's in that new series Karen Sisco, based on Leonard's Out of Sight.

He did alright ... my problem wasn't with the acting.  I just wasn't entertained.  I'm glad somebody liked the movie!  It was good to see Forster trying that hard though because, in my opinion, he peaked in The Black Hole

I had high expectations for Kill Bill, and it totally lived up to them. And yes, it totally does piss all over the Matrix fight scenes, and what makes it even sweeter is that it only had a fraction of the buget used for Reloaded. And what Deegee said. Yay and stuff!
