Well, now that you expect that kind of opening, he has to mix it up, doesn’t he? He said in a bunch of interviews that he didn’t want his “voice” to get stale, that’s why he adapted rum punch, maybe he doesn’t want his “style” to get stale, either.
He also has stated that he doesn’t do the time switch stuff to be a “clever boy”, but only when that is the best way to show the story. Maybe the best way to show Jackie’s story was to start with her.
Does Kill Bill open with a bunch of dialogue? I don’t remember from the script or the preview reviews.
