I'd forgotten about Tim Roth being in The Hit. When I saw Reservoir Dogs at the AMC Maple back in '92, the cashier felt the need to warn me "This a violent movie, you know," to which I cheekily replied "Harvey Keitel holding a gun in both hands on the poster; I would hope so." Also, in the theater, I could hear an elderly couple a few seats from me grumbling how "terrible" the movie was. For me, the most memorable scene is Randy Brooks coaching Tim Roth on going undercover and putting himself into the story and he's talking to Roth in the bathroom story he's made up.

[@wattsnottaken1]

I love the dialogue of those scenes with that black gentleman teaching Tim Roth’s character about how to be naturalistic and “if you ain’t a good actor you’re a bad actor” he also said

Just watched it again and had to watch the deleted scenes. There’s one deleted scene with White, Pink and Eddie in a car discussing getting a nurse called Bonnie to treat Orange, and they refer to the “Bonnie Situation “. Bonnie was Tarantino’s unseen wife in Pulp Fiction, in a chapter with the same name. Also, Vic Vega’s parole officer is Seymour Scagnetti. The warden in Batonga prison in Natural Born Killers was Jack Scagnetti. Pretty sure there’s some family connection there too.

[@MrRuffntumble9]

Jack Scagnetti was a detective that was chasing Mickey and Mallory, played by Tom Sizemore..the warden at Batonga , played by Tommy Lee Jones, was named Dwight McClusky

[@behelit1997]

落水狗 is the literal translation of Reservoir dogs, and is actually an idiom/analogy for describing someone who was above others but has since fallen (into the water) and now is looked down upon by everyone because of the discrepancy of their previous status to now I think that this perfectly describes what the movie was talking about. 6 guys being cocky on a robbery because they think they are undefeated to eventually all dying/arrested in a span of a day.

[@ownpetard8379]

Tarantino has some affinity for Japanese culture, and I suspect Chinese culture as well - the Kill Bill series. Perhaps he knew of this. Very interesting. I personally know of a dog that died in a reservoir, no doubt searching for water to quench his thirst. So, it is common across societies that have piped in water and don't care that animals may drown.

[@UserAndLoser1985]

[@badbadmanly903]

About 25 years ago I saw a movie at 530 am on a Sunday called The Killing. It starred Sterlin Hayden, and Stanley Kubrick directed early in his career, 1956 I think. Was shocked, as Reservoir Dogs was a more gritty version of the same movie. Then remembered that Tarantino dropped out of school at 16 and worked in a video rental place. I’m sure he saw The Killing and it strongly influenced Reservoir Dogs. See the movie if you have any doubt. Also, saw an interview with Madsen, who also starred in a child’s movie, Free Willie. He said little kids would see him and gravitate to him, but their parent would be horrified.

So if Steve Buscemi plays Mr. Pink in Reservoir Dogs, and also plays the waiter at Jackrabbit Slim's in Pulp Fiction, does that mean he's the same character?

In Pulp Fiction, we can clearly see that it's a big mess there. Vincent Vega even calls it a 'wax-museum with a pulse'. It goes like this: Pink works at JBR --> He quits and becomes a gangster --> After the Mexican Standoff, he tries getting away but gets killed by the cops (take your volume up a notch when he tries getting away, you can hear him and the cops).

[@nosomusk864]

It may be the most impressive movie, for being made against the odds, but it’s not the best movie he made, I feel like, while it may be a cliche to praise the film, there is a reason for pulp fiction being praised the way it is.

@@glocknineteen9190 The fact that RD paved the way for Pulp doesn't make it the better film. Nor does the fact that the non linear story telling used was a blueprint for Pulp. While RD is a great film, Pulp is better and a much more accomplished film, hence the justified acclaim for it. For me it's the 2nd best film ever, just pipped to the number one spot by Goodfellas.

[@Rob_-dv6ei]

Ok so there's some confusion here as to what happened to Mr. Pink, people say that: A) He died in the shootout with the police outside B) He survived, but was arrested by police outside C) He survived and escaped I'm pretty damn sure it's not A though because QT confirmed that he's alive.

How can a film festival not have a Cinemascope lens for their projektor? I worked at the worlds smallest cinema, and even we had a CS lens. It was a hassle to mount and focus, so we hated it, but we did have a CS lens...

You could argue the grammar was intentional due to it being a unoriginal lowbrow insult. "Mom jokes" are a meme at this point and are usually a joke and intentionally lowbrow rather than an intended insult.

The uniform of the suits etc was started in Nottingham, England in the early 1970s it was a derivation of the Mod fashion.

I for one am glad they cut the only scene with a woman in it purely because it features some fairly atrocious talking-while-eating.

Good work on the background information, I only knew a few of these facts! However, you fail to mention that the take of Mr. Whire taking multiple attempts to 'click' light his Zippo was kept for authenticity, even though Keitel fails to light his cigarette in that scene!

[@gamersjug3876]

Reservoir dogs is actually Tarantino's first film, *I think what makes reservoir dogs such a charm is that every character ever showed is likable, even down to the kidnapped cop, you feel for him and when he dies at least I felt bad. The ending in of itself made me feel bad but I like movies that leave an impact on me, that's what I'd call a good movie.

[@miguelmartins9706]

Actually, Edward Bunker wasn't the only "real-life criminal" in the film. Lawrence Tierney had a pretty long sheet himself.

To this day I still can't listen to George Baker Selection's "Little Green Bag" without seeing a row of casually suited men walking in slow motion. (And since I'm Dutch, like the band itself, I get to hear it quite a lot on the radio.) Just like Steeler's Wheel makes me break out in a silly dancing Mr. Blonde inspired walk. God I love this movie...

Mr Blue,Eddie Bunker recommended Danny Trejo to train Eric Roberts for the boxing scene in Runaway Train. When Danny and Eric had obvious chemistry, the director asked if Danny could play a criminal and act in the boxing scene. The crazy bit is that Danny Trejo and Eddie Bunker had actually met in prison when both were serving time for separate individual crimes. So thanks to a chance meeting in prison, the world of movies was given the Mexican to ever grace the silver screen. The movie Danny Trejo was asked about the most before playing the title character Machete was in fact Blood In Blood Out in which he plays a criminal

Steven Wright misidentifies the year "Stuck in the Middle With You" was popular.

[@mightymeatmonsta]

Jack Rabbit slim, a song from the 1950's was playing in the background in Reservoir dogs, and was the song that Uma Thurman and John Travolta were dancing to, and won the dance contest with. Rumor has it that they were handed a trophy by the Ed Sullivan look-alike, but it was just for show, and was supposedly, later STOLEN by the two! Ed Sullivan reported it stolen to the police later that night. You can see that when they enter Uma Thurman's house carrying the trophy.

[@Ufc12355]

Did anyone notice the punch Harvey threw on Steve. It was 2 feet short I know it's a movie but was the choreography budget $1.

[@tiddler3747]

Another fact: In the 50s Lawrence tierney and Eddie Bunker once had a fight but when they started filming, Lawrence didn’t remember who he was or what happened

In the 90's i worked for a bit at an independent theater that showed more independent style films.When reservoir dogs came through it was amazing! Without fail at every showing within the first 15 minutes the entire theater would be empty because it was too violent and bloody for every film snob yuppie that would come. Because there was nobody there i got to watch the film for free for about a month. Try watching this movie while coming down from a 3 days liquid lsd binge while at work. Great times!

[@dorkmax7073]

I don't think the female cop is actually named McClusky. Another character calls her "McClusky" as a reference to the character of the same name in The Godfather. Officer McClusky is the guy who gets shot in the restaurant

[@oldblinddarby2498]

Pink did NOT survive.... if you crank up the audio, you hear pink get into a shoot out as he leaves. First there is yelling back and forth, shouting to put it down, shooting, then the police come in, thus indicating that he was shot before they entered.

[@frankthetank2284]

Seems like a book put onto a movie screen, I'm guessing maybe its the nonlinear style.

[@reimourrpower9357]

That's an interesting observation considering that QT used that fully in Pulp and other films especially Inglorious, Kill, H8ful and Django. And that he's stated he leans toward carefully composing the script that way that can be read like a novel and he wants to write books after completing his 10 film limit.

[@TimothyCihal-pn7fm]

The first time I watch this film I was working an evening visitation at a funeral home and the warehouse is a funeral home embalming warehouse with the hearse, embalming sinks, funeral chairs and body lift. How fitting!
