View Full Version : Grind House
Is anyone as excited as me for Grind House? It seems like it will be amazing especially since Tarintino and Robert Rodriguez are directing.

Never heard of it, and if Tarantino is directing it, I'm staying far a-fucking-way from it.
Do you like Robert Rodriguez? Because its a doble feature thing where there is a movie by tarantino then fake ads then a movie by Rodriguez. And they are Zombie movies.
Edit:Heres the link from IMDB.

P.S. Tarantino is a rapist in it.

Zombies... Tempting.
Thought you'd say something like that and if you did see it you wouldn't even have to stay for the Tarantino part.

What the hell is Grind House?
I have no freaking idea what the movie's about, and I don't care to find out ('cause I'm a lazy jerk).
What ever your loss. :g-hmph:
Is it just me or has it recently become "cool" to hate Tarantino? After Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill, I don't get why there's all the hate.
Finally somebody else who doesn't hate Tarantino.
The only thing I could probably slag him off over if slapping his name on crap things he had nothing to do with like er...that horror one that came out a while ago that was so forgettable I've forgotten the title.
Also, I'm pretty darn sure he had a starring role in Young Frankenstein:

Wow even though I've seen Young Frankenstien 50 times I've never noticed how much that looks like Tarantino.

The resembulance is so uncanny that anyone would think he had gone back in time just to be in that movie. Of course time machines haven't been invented yet, but he does look a bit older in that, so maybe they will be in the near future! :g-laugh:
Maybe but then how would you know all this unless you came from the future to tell people that that is Tarantino. But how would I know you went back in time unless I went back in time to folow you. But then wouldnt there be a paradox right now?

This is not the place to talk about space-time mechanics. If you really wish to get into such discussions go elsewhere. *Throws a sundial* :p
I haven't actually seen any Tarantino movies so I wouldn't know what to like or dislike about him.

You showed watch Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, kill bill 1 & 2, and Jackie Brown.

I actually wanted to go see Kill Bill 1, but I never had the chance to before.

I like 3 of Tarantinos movies so far. Have yet to see Reservoir dogs or the ones he had little involvement in (Except Sin city which was great). Apparently people hate Tarantino because they think he's a poor-man's Beat Takeshi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_Takeshi)

Marty Feldman is a God, and 9 out of 10 comedy shows that are not Round The Horne, are crap!
I personally wasn't that impressed with Beat's Zatoichi, and to be honest I can't even really remember much of it now.

As a fan of the old Zatoichi movies, I loved it.
Never seen them, are they any good?

hmm..... sounds cool, though I've never heard of it before just now. I'll have to wait and see.

Blasphemer!

Beat's Zatoichi was brilliant but i can't compare to the predecessors that i haven't seen. On the other hand i kinda thought the cgi dismemberment in the recent one wasn't as good as it could have been.
Just seemed like a pretty sub-par Matrial Arts movie to me. I don't know, maybe I need to see it again to remind myself, but I don't remember it really doing much for me.

In comparisson to it's predecessors, it's ok.
On it's own, I love it.
Though I prefer Takeshi's character to Katsu's, I dunno, this new blonde Zatoichi seemed cooler. (is stoned to death)

I wouldn't compare it to martial arts flicks myself. They usually drag (sword) fights on for a bit whilst in this movie it, as my friend says, harks towards traditional japanese sword fights where the victor is to be decided mere seconds after the fight has begun; settling it in one strike.
Otherwise on topic i'll probably give the movie a go after reading what little there is to say about it on wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grind_House_%28film%29
I love the B-Movie style posters, and one half of the movie stars a woman with a gun for a leg! Sold.
Ya I forgot to mention that. Sounds dangerously fun.
