Uma Thurman's outfit in Japan is based on what Bruce Lee wore in Game of Death. Tarantino said Uma hated the jumpsuit and didn't know about the connection so he had her watch Game of Death and once she got the connection to Bruce Lee, she understood the jumpsuit. Of course her in the jumpsuit is now iconic like most things about Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2.

The character of O-Ren Ishii and her origin story are partially inspired by the film Lady Snowblood (1973).

Such as Coffy (1973), Foxy Brown (1974) and Female Prisoner 701: Scorpion (1972) all of which I recommend watching/reacting to someday.

[@shoujahatsumetsu]

I second this, Lady Snowblood is a milestone in revenge cinema (the sequel sucks though) and they even used certain scenes for inspiration for some of the scenes in Kill Bill as well as the main theme song of Lady Snowblood that was performed by the actress herself, Meiko Kaji, who also stars in Female Prisoner 701: Scorpion, where she also sings the theme song. Which is also used in Kill Bill.

A lot of Tarantino's films are influnced by old Spaghetti Westerns, Blaploitation films and Chinese martial arts movies. I think this film/films blends those genres together masterfully. The way that he writes his dialogue is so unique and makes interactions between characters seem very natural and organic. There is a reason he is one of the most influential, and often copied, filmmakers of the past 30 years.

This film takes so many cues from 1970's martial arts movies. Chinese Kung Fu movies back then used to use well known music samples rather than create their own original soundtracks. They would use Ennio Morricone's score from The Good the Bad and the Ugly, John Barry's music from the James Bond films and that intense wah, wah piece of music you heard at the beginning of the film is written by Quincey Jones and is the opening theme to a 1970's detective TV show called Ironside. You can hear that theme being played in the 70's Chinese Kung Fu movie Queen Boxer. Also the guy playing Hattori Hanzo is legendary Japanese film star Sonny Chiba, who back in the 1970's was considered the Japanese Bruce Lee, mostly for his very Bruce Lee-like performance in the Street fighter trilogy.

[@anthonyleecollins9319]

One thing it took me several watches to catch is that Bill is the douchebag sword wielding henchmen that kills O-Ren’s dad. They never come out and say it, but based on the sword, his skills, and all of the rings on his fingers (you see Bill’s rings when he is on the phone with Elle) it’s clear the guy is Bill. I have always wondered if O-Ren ever found out. Is that why she left the Vipers to run her own crime family? I would love to ask Tarantino if I ever get the chance.

The revenge elements are typical of old martial arts movies. But, it's all based on an ancient proverb that essentially says if you plan to kill for revenge, you must dig two graves. The Bride knows this, being exceptionally familiar with Asian martial arts and customs. Revenge begets vengeance, so we could possibly see something down the road about the daughter still feeling kinda raw about it. That would be fun. haha

Someone probably mentioned this but the black and white fight scene was decided in editing, Tarantino said there was so much red from all the blood they opted to transfer all the film prints to B&W, and it cost a small fortune but it created an incredible and memorable fight scene

[@HrWisch]

The way blood is shown in Kill Bill is a homage to Samurai movies and Mangas. There's a specific way blood has to spill in those films / pictures. The yellow suit is a homage to Bruce Lee. Also the way new characters are introduced (with text of their name in a freeze frame and a short music clip) is taken from the same culture.

One thing I love about this film is that *yes* on the surface it's mostly just a bloodbath... but there is so many little things, little details, piece of drama, small revelations here and there which reveal more about each major character. It's fed to you in subtle pieces, hidden among the carnage and murder. This is one of those films that really make use of the major goal of good film making: "show, don't tell". Consider Gogo. As the fight progresses, she earns some respect at her skill, which tempers the audience's disgust at her cruelty. But this also implies some things about O-Ren, because what kind of person would Gogo follow, and what kind of person would lead Gogo? Someone who can tame her, and see past (or channel) her vicious streak. There are a few things to be gleaned in there. All this from just a fight.

Just like Django Unchained was Tarantino's homage to spaghetti westerns and slavery, Kill BIll was his take on martial arts films and samourai cinema (Hanzo was played by SOnny Chiba and the leader of the Crazy 88s was played by Gordon Liu, both martial arts legends), both the pulpy kind and the more classical in the vein of Seven Samourai and Yojimbo.

Kill Bill was a single movie for a bit until the studio demanded it to be cut down or split in two, I saw Kill Bill as a single movie in a movie festival. The cliffhanger at the end wasn't in it though and I wish people could have watched the second one without that knowledge. It's one of the most crazy reveals I've ever experienced in the theater where the crowd went wild. I love Kill Bill just because it's an hommage to 70s Asian cinema, with Sergio Leone here and there. The water fountain in the O'ren Ishii reminded me so much of the opening of Once upon a time in the west where the watertower is squeeking.

Fun fact: The grave that the Bride was buried in was Paula Schultz, widow of Dr. King Schultz... as in Christoph Waltz's character in "Django Unchained".

If you watch the Japanese cut, in the final fight scene with the crazy 88 they do not go to black&white. You get to see all the blood & gore in full colour.

This is such a display of boys vs girls. She spent half the movie with her face covered, grimacing, and he's laughing and cheering HE CUT THAT GUY IN HALF!!! lol

[@JamesASharp]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Quentin Tarantino is a lunatic. But, it's undeniable that he's one of the greatest directors in the history of Hollywood cinema, perhaps in the top 10. Great reaction! 👍🏿

Music at beginning of fight scene between copperhead and black momba is the opening music for the TV show ironsides

In case your both wondering the woman who played gogo was in a movie before kill Bill that made her pretty famous in Japan and in the US. It's called Battle Royale. You guys should check it out. It's basically the founding father for the hunger games and others like it.

I think the "apology" from Lucy Liu's character was from the fact that she was a part of the attack on the church🤔 If she really wanted to kill the bride, she would have done it one-on-one. At least that's what I take the "apology"🤷‍♂️

[@marcobiotic]

a bit of a correction: QT did not intend this to be 2 movies. It was either a studio decision post production (or a joint one) to split them. There’s a cut out there in the wild, not made by QT, that makes both just one big movie

[@dustman820]

TBR brings that up after they watched the movie with their discussion at the end.

[@danholmesfilm]

Samantha’s reaction to the first scene is PRICELESS. more now pls ❤️

[@Jay-ln1co]

When this came out, I recognized Gogo's actress from Battle Royale a few years earlier. Battle Royale was, funny enough, the first DVD I ever bought. Still have it, metal case and a single frame of the original film print included.

Just in case nobody has said this yet, Hattori Hanzo the Sushi Bar Sword Smith was played by "Sonny" Chiba. In True Romance, the triple feature where Alabama meets WHN is the Streetfighter Trilogy starring Sonny Chiba.

The pairs of sunglasses on the sheriff's dashboard are an homage to the original 1973 H.B. Halickis' "Gone In 60 Seconds". You should check it out, it's sooooo good!

6:05 FUN FACT: This is Earl McGraw, played by Michaels Parks. This Character also appears in the movies From Dusk Till Dawn, Death Proof and Planet Terror, Produced By Quentin Tarantino and Robet Rodriguez

[@eduardodiaz9942]

Fun fact: Hattori Hanzo is played by Sonny Chiba (RIP), who was considered a cinema legend in Japan and was one of Tarantino's fav martial art film actors.
