plus let me get that Grindhouse business outa here. whoever compares this to Grindhouse forgets that Grindhouse is two absolutely separate movies, connected by MAYBE 2 or so references and some same actors. that’s it. so the comparison is totally wrong in that respect.
and I agree with most of what’s been said so far. I just hope we hear some more reliable news soon, and by that i’m not even talking about the actual interview that AICN is talking about, because talking about something is one thing, I wanna see this baby in production, and when qt goes in front of the cameras and sais, “seriously, we’re doing two movies here” then I’ll buy that. so far, it’s all speculation to me, and i’ll treat it as such until i know know, not think believe/wish

Kill Bill is def one film. I mean you dont number each chapter of a film (1-10) for no reason. If youre that dim you think its two completely separate films…i dont know.
All this two movie BS means nothing to me. Just the fact he is making it is enough for me. Ill go see it if its in 5 parts. I dont care.
Even through they split Kill Bill into two films its really one film, and its always gonna be one film to me. When IB comes out to some(like kill bill) it will be two films, but once again it will always be one. Do I like the idea of splitting them up? well of course I dont, but like I said before your average moviegoer does not want to spend more than two hours at one movie plus more money in the companys pocket. I almost want to wait for the dvd to come out that way I can watch it as a whole, but you know I dont have the willpower to wait 8)
I think we can look at it like this. Or at least I do:
Kill Bill was indeed one film. However during editing it was turned into TWO films.
Inglorious Bastards was one film. However during scripting it was turned into TWO films. (rumours withstanding)
I want to echo what Ify posted regarding the feeling of ‘completeness’. I think it could very well work if he did decide to put out two (or three) separate / complete movies. I.e. not simply putting a cap at the end of the first half!
I’ve just noticed Ify has also thrown out what I had in my head too: I think it could work as a 3-part anthology whereby we have three different perspectives from World War II. Different characters could intertwine a la Pulp Fiction, but each would still be a complete story.
So he knows what he wants to do, I just hope everything’s worked out in scripting stages and not left until the editing stage, so we have something more satisfying than Kill Bill.
Yeah I saw it Bio. The whole thing was kinda dull I thought. They whipped thru the movies too fast. QT wasnt even on it very long. He said like 3 sentences on the entire show.
Yeah, chill out man, I’m only airing my opinions. I’m not trying to stir anyone up.
As for his best film. He’s only made 5 movies so isn’t anything he does ‘one of his best’? But no, I don’t consider Kill Bill to be one of his best, i.e. I’ll take Dogs, Pulp and Jackie Brown over it anyday. So there alone, on my list, it’s in his bottom 2. But that doesn’t mean I don’t like it.
And if I wanna second guess, I’ll second guess…I’m a fan. I’m paying to see the movie. So I’m entitled to my speculation!
Really? I dont think that happened (dont remember it) because in the third movie she still doesnt know about Fredo. She says something to Michael about “poor Fredo drowning”.
But they show the origin of Hyman Roth’s name and even have a child character in the film named Carmine Coppola (whos a musician).
