NYT: rodriguez a mess, Tarantino great

(Apr 6 07, 08:00)Just saw ithe movie and I thought the opposite. Tarantino's was sloooow in some parts. Some great stunt work tho.
Rodriguez's was everything a B-movie fan can enjoy. The crowd practically gave it a standing ovation!
Also-Eli Roth's fake trailer for "Thanksgiving" during the intermission is hilarious.
check it!!

Tarintino makes some ace films. If he wasent a movie director though, I'm also certain he'd be a major pyscho stalking serial nut. You could see he was getting spooky on Uma Thurman on Killbill.
'Written by Q&U'... ffs lol

I hated Reservoir Dogs so much that I turned it off after 15 minutes. other than that the only Tarantino movie I've seen is Kill Bill which I enjoy (1 and 2). I saw Grindhouse last night and had an entertaining time in the theatre, but for all the praise Tarantino is getting, his movie was boring as shit til the end chase. If I wanted to watch girls talk for an hour I could just go to the mall.

the word grind makes me cringe

I appreciate Tarantino's representation or focus on women, at the very least.
I'll have to catch this film soon.

"I could listen to Sydney Tamiia Poitier and Tracie Thoms, two of the movie’s motor-mouthed heroines, talk through the whole three hours of “Grindhouse,” read the phone book or recite “The Faerie Queene” on tape in my Volvo in the middle of a traffic jam."

this looks about as good as Troma films with bigger budgets.

I didn't like Planet Terror, but loved Death Proof. First half of Death Proof was starting to get a little boring, but it was needed for character development, to make you care about them more... I didn't think Tarantino would pull it off, but once the car chase started, I was blown away. That's gotta be the best car chase scene ever, even better than Ronin's. The New Zealand chick was awesome, and that was her first movie as an actual actor (she did stunt work for Kill Bill and some other movies).

(Apr 8 07, 16:11)Yeah, I heard about how she was Uma Thurman's stunt woman and totally did those car scenes without getting too scared. And during an interview, Rosario (Dawson) stated that Zoe wasn't freaking out too much but the reactions of herself and the other people in the car were pretty much real. They couldn't believe the craziness (I'm paraphrasing).

I went to see it last night, I was a bit skeptic because I liked tarantino's work till I saw kill bill, but gun leg was the bite for me, I loved both movies, I loved the trailer and I loved the b movie style look/ edits/ feel / missing reel resources. I saw a lot of people leaving the theather though, LOTS!
I would say less than %50 stayed to watch the second flick.
The trailer for machete was amazing I heard it will be included as a real movie on the dvd release.. the priest with 2 shotguns is all I needed.. I want to see that!

Caught the Austin premiere last wednesday. It was totally awesome. My bf liked RR's half, I liked Qt's. Deathproof is a chick flick.

(Apr 2 07, 10:57)I disagree..
to be qualified as a chick flick a movie needs to be romantic, boring, has either john cusak or julia roberts in it, there is probably a wedding cake scene and I did not see any of those in there..I can understand a girl liking the movie, but its not a chick flick.

Fuck yea!

I haven't seen it, but the directors, actors, and many viewers are saying that it's leaning towards being a chick flick.
Chick flicks don't necessarily exclude car chases.
