I absolutely loved this movie when it first came out. It certainly showed at the time that Tarrantino movies were ones to watch out for! Samuel L Jackson mentioned in an interview some years ago that the top 2 questions he got were 'What's in the case?' and 'why purple?'I'm always reminded of that every time I watch this film! Thanks for sharing.

FYI the Download links appear to be pointing to Mulan files.

One more movie series suggestion: this one doesn't seem to have any official name, so I'll just call it the Death Day Verse. This is a set of films by Christopher Landon for Blumhouse Studios, which he's confirmed are in a shared setting that he hopes to eventually tie together Avengers-style, which take the basic premise of a well-known fantasy comedy and put it on top of a slasher movie story. So far there are three: Happy Death Day and its sequel (with the story of Groundhog Day, as a typical slasher movie victim gets stuck in a time loop of the day she's killed) and Freaky (with the story of Freaky Friday, as a high school girl and a slasher villain switch bodies).

Tarantino's first movie Reservoir Dogs got plenty of attention, but was also a pretty straightforward remake of the Hong Kong film City on Fire. This was where he showed how well he could make his own story (for a certain degree, since as the title implies, he's still mostly just playing around with classic plot and character archetypes, though the way they're played off each other in unusual combinations is still pretty novel, especially for the time).

OMG I haven't seen this in years! Going to watch it with your reaction right now!

About Mia's overdose: In the '90s, it was typical to store heroin in balloons and cocaine in bags. But when Vincent buys his heroin from Lance, he takes it in a bag because Lance is out of balloons. So Mia thinks the heroin is cocaine and snorts it rather than injecting it, resulting in an instant overdose.

I’m probably going to have to split my comment into two given the length of the film, combined with there being a lot to say about it. Start with your choice of beverage. Lagers are good. I do like a good lager, so that sounded nice you treated yourself to one. I admit I was curious how this series was going to play out given the love it or hate it nature of Tarantino’s work. To use myself as an example, my brother and I are quite fond of Tarantino’s work. My dad never much cared for Tarantino’s work. He never got into any of Tarantino’s films. My mom has never seen any of Tarantino’s films beyond tiny snippets here and there as they are not the types of films that are my mom’s cup of tea. Though I could see her perhaps liking Jackie Brown, and perhaps Once Upon a Time in Hollywood save for one or two scenes. There is some nostalgia with Pulp Fiction in that, although I'm too young to have seen this when it first came out as I was three when it was released, it’s been fifteen years since I first saw it at the beginning of the summer when I was seventeen. It's been a few years since I've seen it completely start to finish, so it was genuinely quite nice to sit down and watch it again, and to share it with you, Jess. Yes, this film is quite insane. A killer soundtrack, and I was joining you on dancing and singing along, Son of a Preacher Man, especially. Immense rewatchability with the dialogue. There are large sections of the dialogue my brother and I can quote back and forth practically verbatim. I'm told the unique nature of the dialogue was particularly novel when the film was first released and has continued to be a major part of its legacy in the three decades, hence. Addressing your observations about the fact that you weren’t thinking that the film would talk about foot massages that much. Yeah, well, uh, Tarantino has a uh, uh, uh, let’s just say a fondness for feet which, if you ask me borders on the unhealthy. That's all I'm going to say about that. I knew most of the cast of this going into it in my first viewing. This served as my introduction to Tim Roth, and I thought he and Amanda Plummer were a riot. The scene where the briefcase is collected remains a highlight of the film. It feels like Frank Whaley who plays Brett never really gets all that much credit for that scene. The date between Vincent and Mia is another major highlight of the film. John Travolta and Uma Thurman had great chemistry. Yeah, it does seem odd what with the fear of getting thrown off a roof that Marsellus would have Vincent take Mia out. When you commented, “Someone might just like throwing people off roofs.” or however you said it, I thought on that some, and said, “That's an interesting observation, and perhaps an accurate one.” I did get a laugh over your rectangle comment. Yes, it was a touch unorthodox with the dancing with Travolta doing a variation of the Bat-tusi, and, and you might get a kick out of this fun fact, Jess, Uma basing her dancing at least in part after the dance in The Aristocats. To address your query on the drug overdose, I refer to Ryan’s comment that succinctly sums it up. Yeah, the OD scene and the sequence where Vincent shoots up were scenes that I was worried about for you. Also, I KNEW you were going to have a noticeable reaction to Rosanna Arquette’s character discussing her piercings. I would say you handled the scenes with the needles fairly well, all things considered. When you kept glancing back to the screen during the OD scene, I found myself saying, “Keep your eyes firmly glued to that random inconsequential spot on the floor, Jess.” The scene with Christopher Walken is great in that I love the mood whiplash from when it starts out being a very dramatic monologue, and then it nosedives into pure Walken-ness at the end of it. The look on your face at that part was great.

Bruce Willis as Butch certainly was unbothered and untroubled what with him going about in a blasé and lackadaisical manner. Yeah, it would be something to strive for being that unconcerned, though that bit with the knockoff brand pop-tarts was a bit extreme. I find I’m insanely critical of him with the watch in that he had a duffle bag containing a change of clothes when he fled the one building. So, why didn’t he have the watch in the bag. I mean, if it’s a highly prized and treasured possession of your dad and by extension, your dad’s dad and so on, I would keep that with me in this type of scenario, regardless of how much I trust certain people. The pawn shop scene is definitely one of the most shocking scenes. When you were initially questioning what you were seeing, the gimp especially, I replied, “...You don’t want to know, Jess.” And when you retracted the inquires as to what was going on, I said, “Wise decision.” To your point, the scene does need to be shocking to highlight that it’s beyond the pale, even by hardened criminals' standards. Sidenote, it is hilarious if you watch this movie on censored tv during that scene as they go to EXTREME lengths to NOT show the gimp. My interpretation of Butch’s actions in going back for Marsellus was motivated largely by the horror of leaving him in such a situation. I mean, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, even if they were my worst enemy. I also imagine that Butch probably was not expecting to live following his decision to save Marsellus, and he would have been fine with that, so long as he was able to take out Zed and Maynard first. I loved Ving Rhames as Marsellus in that scene. The scene of Phil LaMarr as poor Marvin getting shot is where I always lose it the most, and again, your face in that scene was worth the price of admission. I particularly love how the infamous line, “Aw, man, I shot Marvin in the face.” is delivered with a tone of voice that says, “Aw, man, I spilled coffee on my shirt.” And how Vincent keeps trying to downplay it by saying it was an accident, like that’s supposed to cushion the blow. I had a feeling you would like Harvey Keitel as Winston Wolf. Yeah, Vincent should have gotten smacked upside the head once or thrice. To briefly address how you commented on the excessive usage of the slurs, yeah, Tarantino has received, not unwarranted criticism for that over his career. This film has the worst, or at least the most unnecessary case of it when you have Tarantino himself repeatedly using slurs. My brother and I have discussed it once or twice, and we both have a similar thought of we watch the scene, and say, “Quentin, what the fuck, man?” Now to talk about Jules. It’s hard for me to settle on a favorite character in this film, but in terms of performance, Samuel L. Jackson as Jules is my favorite performance of the film. It is like you say that most if not all the characters have disassociated and/or detached themselves from what they do. Jules is the sole exception. And we see this through his miraculous survival and his decision to leave his life of crime following his moment of clarity. I loved how you got a laugh over his wallet saying “Bad motherfucker” which incidentally is the same thing written on Mace Windu’s lightsaber, true story. The entire final scene is the scene that makes clear why Sam got an Oscar nomination. He sadly did not win, and understandably so, as Martin Landau’s Oscar-winning performance as Bela Lugosi in Ed Wood was more than well-deserved. An unfortunate occasion of the category being a stacked field with great performances like Sam as Jules sadly had to lose. This reaction that was most enjoyable, very insightful, and just so lovely Jess. I thank you for such a terrific time that was had in revisiting and sharing this film with you.

I remember the pawn shop scene was spoofed on The Simpsons pretty quickly after this film's release (in the episode 22 Short Films About Spirngfield), and of course 12 year old me had absolutely no idea what the hell it was about, but it was still so specifically weird that it stuck in my head and I instantly made the connection when I finally saw the movie many years later.

A couple notes for the Jack Rabbit Slims scene: Vincent orders the Douglas Sirk Steak, referring to a director whose style was notoriously melodramatic with hugely heightened emotions, hence the steak can be ordered "burned or bloody" with no half-measures. And Mia's choices for the milkshake are "Amos and Andy or Martin and Lewis," referring to two famous comedy duos, one black and one white, ie chocolate or vanilla.

Came here to say this. She mistook heroin for cocaine and had obviously never used heroin before so she had no tolerance.
