I honestly loved the dialogue of Kill Bill more than the action. It's so raw, so savage, I wish I could talk like Beatrix.

[@upcomingyogi]

If you wanna talk like her you have to be a born killer 😁

[@jdrc1233]

Being honest i thought the first one was farrr better until i heard that Superman speech....goddamnit the last confrontation between Beatrix and Bill has to be the best dialogue i’ve ever seen in an action movie

I was off shrooms watching kill bill and it blew my mind how all the dialogue adds up nothing is irrelevant

That Superman story. Only he... And I know how he does this too. He dives deeper than almost everyone. Man doesn't write characters. He lives with them.

[@marzblaq7267]

My favorite piece of dialogue from Quentin has to be O-Ren’s monologue. It established to me not only how ruthless she was, she’s fiercely proud of her heritage and she’s willing to kill anyone who tries to degrade her because of it.

[@JayInDecent]

My favorite act/ dialogue is the Japan scene where Hattori Hanzo makes her sword. It's so sacred and beautiful

The last half hour of Kill Bill volume 2 might be my favorite ending to any movie ever. And the fight scene was only about 20 seconds long. The dialogue between Kiddo and Bill and what made it so incredible. The music by RZA was incredible too.

[@WhiteBloggerBlackSpecs]

Bill's dialogue about Superman...masterful

[@DarthWinterMadness]

I used to like Vol. 1 better when they came out. But after growing a little bit and seeing movies through a different lense made me appreciate Vol. 2 how it should be. That last half hour with just 20 secs of fighting disappointed me on first viewing. Now it's one of my favorite sequences, it deserves all of the praise it gets. Just great Tarantino dialogue as usual. The conversation is the fight, that's why it's great. Also, there's a version of the movie that only exists on DVD (there is apparently a bootleg version on Blu-ray) that's called The Whole Bloody Affair. It's one 4h movie, including the uncensored Japanese version of the fight against the Crazy 88. That's the way I watch it, just one story, one movie and it's amazing. Cheers from France! 🍻

[@highwind1991]

When I was a young teen and first getting into film, Kill Bill was the first Tarantino film that I saw. And kill bill vol. 2's ending taught me early on that scenes with dialogue can be just as engaging if not more so than action scenes when it comes to concluding a story. I love me a good action climax, but Most of the time, simple human drama can be all you need to get the point across. It can pay off to take chances and to do the unexpected thing and not follow the cliches of storytelling

[@yallTweakin]

Sucks for you that you cant enjoy other stuff lmfao. I love all film

[@DarthWinterMadness]

I've felt similar after watching The Whole Bloody Affair, the 4h piece. I could watch any of his movies on repeat, that's what I did after each movie was released on digital. Or as I did with Django, saw it several times in the theater. That said, I'm not bored of any other movies. Some have similar rewatch value but not that many. Cheers from France! 🍻

[@garciavashchino1]

Wow has time flown. When I watched Kill Bill I had no children, now I have two daughters and I can't stop tearing up. It says I'm a bit of a masochist I'm going to now have to watch Kill Bill again. This film is to good.

I like kill bill a lot because it didn't beat me over the head like marvel or something that the protagonist is a female. She was so badass

[@isaac_alexander_v]

Tarantino’s structure for dialog is sometimes repetitive and unnatural. It can be very flowery and all his characters speak and sound like him. They all adhere to that same structure. Like at times too detailed. But I love about 80% of it. A true gem.

@Christian Tompkins oh absolutely. The analysis he has of Kiddo is dead on, again I however don't believe Superman views the human race as weak......I wonder if he wrote for the DCCU before he had his heart exploded 😂

[@neegas3490]

@Christian Tompkins oop

[@Ruylopez778]

I guess the idea was imply these two are kind of elite, and alien, from all the little people. Plus Superman had his costume right from being a baby, and spent his whole life trying to fit in, so I can't think of a more suitable comic book character for his anecdote. As you say, seeing humans as weak, is merely Bill's take on it, which adds something to his characterisation.

[@GearWukong]

It's pretty much how lex luther sees superman.

[@morcey7154]

​@chubbyurma Eh, I disagree. Clark dresses like a nerd so that he's a far cry from what people expect of Superman, which allows him to maintain his Superman status as a secret. If he walked around in clothes that showed off his huge muscles, and didn't wear those goofy big glasses, it'd be tougher to justify why people don't immediately clock who he is. It's really nothing to do with how he sees the average person; he raised by, and grew up with, "average humans". For all intents and purposes, aside from how his body reacts to the yellow sun, he pretty much IS human himself.

"ah, so, the point emerges" . . darn right it does. that superman speech is pure gold.

[@simonefabiane9562]

I love the beginning of Reservoir Dogs. There seems to be an odd pointlessness to that scene in the restaurant and the truth is if you remove it, it wont make the difference to the story. However, I think there are four purposes to the scene. First it introduces us the characters in style. Second, its sets the tone of the story. It allows us to make up our minds about how we feel about them. Here's how I feel about the characters. I like the father and son because they consider paying a tip to the waitress almost a duty. The son collects the tips and the father checks the total. So even though they are thieves, they still have principals that I respect. The babbling idiot who is speaking nonsense and who is inconsequential to the mini plot of the scene is oddly enough, Quentin's character. It will mirror his pointlessness in the overall story. Even when he speaks here he seems to be ignored. The one that ratted out Mr Pink when the old man asked who didnt tip, is the overall rat in the story. The one that I hate is the man who is stealing his money rather than earning it but is not generous enough to leave a tip. Mr White's ability to confiscate the old man's book and still live to tell the tale shows that the old man has heart is a father figure to most of these people. Other than Pink everyone else has heart and compassion. However the fourth purpose is subversion of expectation. Even though we are being shown that they are nice people, what happens afterwards, spins our opinion of them on its head. Awesome opening.

[@piedradelaselvados]

Its quite simple: if the voice over is done by the old dude, I'm watching the video, if not I won't. Excalibur!

I understood the gold watch was all but roger averys, but Tarantino injected his own pacing and some changes to it, in order to have the final pulp fiction section?? I could be wrong.

[@smolboy1237]

Someone help me explain this. I heard that dialogue is about context. For the scene in Pulp Fiction about the Royale with Cheese scene. Despite it not having to do with the context of the following moment, why is it still memorable?

[@NathanLorenzana]

Kind of a late reply, but I think it has to do with the fact that it introduces the characters as humans, having a very fun and interesting conversation before they go into character to get a job done later. It's also funny because you can see that the 2 guys are obviously killers but they're talking about burgers... which so happens there's a half-eaten burger in the next scene that Jules takes a bite off. It's just amazing how it all ties up and gets us hooked.

[@artistaccount]

It's like the the tip scene at the start of reservoir dogs. I forget the exact name but it's like an introduction to the characters even though it doesn't relate much to the story it's just a way for authors to show us the characters and even foreshadow events that happen in the movie with benign little things in the character introduction scene that turn into on second reading or viewing oh this character did this in the intro that's why in he told or is shrewd or whatever the charavters personality type is later on in the movie This is a long winded way of saying the character introduction scene is about showing their personality and linking those actions in the intro scene to later critical events in the story

[@KevalVorahere]

I will say that adding stakes is not necessary. I am not talking about Tarantino, am talking about extended dialogues. Take an example of Seinfeld. They are generally talking and talking, but there is nothing at stake there. Like the pulp fiction Mac n Cheese dialogues, Seinfeld writes about the watch, the pen, parking lot, chinese restaurant and more. I know the example which am using is very far from Tarantino, but am solely talking about extended dialogues and how it keeps you hooked.

[@StudioBinder]

It's important to note that Seinfeld and Tarantino films are drastically different genres. One is a TV sitcom and the other is a vibrant, gritty, and violent cinematic experience. Creating stakes in a Seinfeld conversation scene would be disingenuous to the show's style and tone. Whereas, in a Tarantino film, the stakes are set high and are inherent occurrences in the storyline due to Tarantino's direction. Not sure where you're going with this comparison. Thanks for watching though! Hope you like our other content 😊✌🏻🎬

[@KevalVorahere]

@@StudioBinder No, no am sorry if I offended you. I did not mean that, I was not actually comparing, I am just saying that it happened in Seinfeld too. So, I meant stakes need not be very high, but yes, Tarantino films are different. I love your content. Thank you and again sorry.
