KILL BILL - Pai Mei Expanded Sequence

I love the fact that QT casted Gordon Liu as Pai Mei. It was a real "The student becomes the master type moment.

Interesting side-note: The flute David Carradine plays is the same one he used in The Silent Flute AKA Circle of Iron - the movie Bruce Lee didn't live long enough to make.

What a way to die. During a super creepy wack off session!

[@RyBreadisRyGuy]

Great way of interweaving Kill Bill, Executioners From Shaolin and Clan of the White Lotus together to tell the story of Pai Mei.

[@alanwatts8239]

"The nod.... was not returned.." Translation: the monk died

[@gwun2008]

Pai Mei, like Yagyu Jubei of Japan, was a legend of Chinese martial arts. Whether he was real or fictitious is still debatable. Lots of folklore/novels about this character were produced in the past century or so. Some regarded him as evil, some righteous. Unlike Yagyu, whose living dates were documented, Pai Mei's background was undetermined. That's why some believed he had lived hundreds of years!

[@Mysticinvestigations]

That Pai Mei is quite the delicate little prince. You don't reciprocate a head nod, and he goes nuts!

[@bwarrior83]

It's called "politeness". Let's say you see the Godfather from the Italian mafia nodding at you and you don't nod back out of "not wanting to be little prince". Well, you can be sure next morning you'll end up dead for not being polite. It's crazy, but you have to learn to respect your elders.

[@Mysticinvestigations]

bwarrior83 There's respecting your elders, and then there's just being silly. These people with power who abuse their positions, whether it be the government, mafia, martial arts masters, or whoever, should deal with the mental illness they suffer from. That being delusions of grandeur, God complex, and a generally sadistic nature with tendencies toward unwarranted bursts of anger.

[@bwarrior83]

MysticInvestigations I guess you're too young to understand respect. It's allright, you'll get there.

[@Mysticinvestigations]

bwarrior83 Respect for arrogant people full of themselves due to their age, talent, or position they've acquired. I'll never understand that. Such people sound like they've backslided into a childish mode rather than a place of wisdom. The video displays such childish bully behavior.

[@nambelas]

Some people have balls to be arrogant or plain ignorant. They just can't choose to stand in the middle. Elle Driver calls him miserable old fool and his words mean less than nothing to her. Both of them paid the price dearly. Elle lost her eye for being insolent, and Pai Mei lost his life for being too confident in his own skills... which means nothing as he dies less honorable death by poison.

[@natethehuman]

The scenes are from executioners from shaolin 1977. It's a good kung fu movie.

[@youregonnaburnalright7333]

+natethehuman so its like the same universe as kill bill,but in the past?

[@trappenweisseguy27]

Same character but in his original time frame. The EFS movie also has the awesome fight between the priest and Pai Mei in the opening credits. The white lotus movie is good as well. Tarantino wanted Lo Lieh to play Pai Mei again in his movies but the man died just before filming.

Quentin Tarantino worked at movie store before he was a director, and he watched all the movies that were there. Seems like he liked some movies enough to get into his scripts as references.

It's the same with writers. S.King said something like this, that in order to become a good writer, you must read tons of books. I guess Q.T. Watched all the movies in his rental/movie store

Kill bill is Tarantino's love letter to all the movies and genres he likes. Spaghetti westerns, kung fu movies, anime, and whatever other films he's into.

[@willgouin445]

I wish this scene was longer, I love the way he tells the story

[@TheDanzomanzo]

I'm glad they removed the Pai Mei scenes here. It made him all the more mysterious and tension building for the moment, including the Five Point Exploding Heart Technique.

[@JNadobnik]

This was made by a fan, with parts from other films with Pai Mei of the White Lotus.

So if someone does the five point palm exploding heart technique on you and you only take FOUR steps you'll be fine. Just get in a wheelchair and roll away.

[@shanesuperville766]

THEORY: Pai Mei is not a single person, but a title passed from Master to student for centuries, this would explain the original Pai Mei's exaggerated age (1000+ years old). Beatrix became the most recent Pai Mei, after the death of her teacher. When Beatrix killed Vernita (Vivica A. Fox's character) in volume 1, she extended an invitation to Vernita's daughter who saw her mother killed, to seek out Beatrix one day and challenge her to become the next successive Pai Mei when she comes of age.

[@Carlschwamberger1]

This sounds a bit to much like Sith. I'd think there is more to becoming Pai Mei than just offing the existing Pai Mei.

[@stitcha123]

its just a film thing. dont take it literally.

[@thuyanhle7104]

then comes the Chirin’s Bell reference?

[@12227UserName]

No. Pai Mei is a legendary Toaist in Chinese mythology. In Taoist beliefs, a huge part of their practice is to purify the body and mind. According to legend, Pai Mei the Priest became one of the 7 Chinese immortals and became a diety.

[@dayman161172]

Like kagemaru?

[@IamNearl]

Either way, David Carradine telling the story is a slice of Kung Fu film history. Great way of showing respect to Shaw Brothers and HK film history.

I love how the Pai Mei scenes look like they're straight from a Chinese martial arts soap opera. Quentin Tarantino's a genius.

"The abbot at first tried to console Pai Mei, only to find Pai Mei was... inconsolable." Because this isn't the typical usage of the word, it makes me think of an "inconsolable" Pai Mei weeping like a child as he goes around slaughtering all the monks.

[@landonletterman831]

As the leader of the Shaolin monastery I would have had to apologize for the insult, give punishment for all the monks with lessons in manners and respect and being humble, but first question Pai-Mei who he is and what exactly makes him so damn important that a neck needs to be given up over a monk who was probably just lost in thought contemplating the universe during a stroll

[@SecretTechniqueGuy]

@GamrDan This is a great story because it hints to the listener that Pai Mei is a man of incredible powers: After all, this happened over 1000 years ago, and this man killed sixty people by himself with his bare hands, for such a petty and absurd reason. We instantly get a sense of Pai Mei's character.

[@bwackbeedows3629]

An amazing story; admittedly, Bill's florid way of saying "1002 AD" flew right over my head as a kid 😂

[@CraneTiger2]

Pai Mei, aka Bak Mei, founded the style "Bak Mei." He should have practiced that style in the movies.

[@olaf2046]

Fist Of The White Lotus (1975) is the name of this Shaw Brothers movie with actor Lo Mieh as the White Lotus/Pia Mei and actor Gordon Liu aka Liu Kai Fai as the hero. Funny factoid is that Gordon Liu also appears as Pia Mei in Kill Bill almost 40 years after his role in the Fist Of The White Lotus .

[@medien5148]

Thanks for the info. Apparently there are also scenes from "Executioners from Shaolin" (1977) starring Kuan Tai Chen (who played in Iron Monkey 1977) and Gordon Liu as Tung Chien-Chin and Lieh Lo as Pai Mei. Also, Fist of the White Lotus was 1980. I know, very confusing, i'm just getting into this, plus many of these movies have multiple different english titles going.

[@Zamolxes77]

It would be awesome to explore how did Pai Mei come up with the 5 point Exploding Heart technique. Did someone taught him ? Or he discovered it himself, through experimentation ? Did he slaughter thousands of Shaolin to come up with the move ?

[@m.koksal3396]

That's an interesting one. At 3:21 we can see Pai Mei counting his opponents' steps before they fall dead; as if he were still experimenting and finetuning his technique

[@NAVEMAN3]

Fun fact: The actor in the flashbacks, is the same acter that played this movie's Pai Mei. Also and I don't know if you guys noticed but the leader of the crazy 88 from vol 1 is the same acter. Look it up on Wiki if you need proof.

Fun Fact. Pai Mei has died 3 times. Killed by the Tiger/Crane style in Executioners of Shaolin. By way of head kick in Shaolin Abbott. And by way of exploded heart in Firsts of the white lotus. Although none of the movies are related, it was the exact same character. A sociopath white lotus priest that was killing kung fu masters that he didn't like.
