[quote=“Ify”]
He sent me a few PM’s. It’s definitely him.



Btw, what do you mean by you hope its success won’t turn QT to the dark side?

a lot of really talented people do really well before the mainstream catches on - then they get hooked on the fame and start pandering to the mainstream - It is kind of like Orwell’s Animal Farm - all of the animals swore that they would never become like the farmer - oink, oink…

QT has already won an Oscar/Golden Palm and about a hundred other awards. Hes a bonafide superstar in film and look at how he treated Seb when he met him? QT is just one cool dude.

I think QT has enjoyed all the success he will ever have. If he hasn’t gone mainstream by now, he will never do.

Here’s a interview with Kurt Russell you can read it or download it(slight spoilers)

Really cool interview.



“I wish you all could spend an entire movie working, come prepared, I do warn you about that, it’s not easy. I watched people come in who weren’t quite ready to go and that’s not good and I don’t blame him but boy it’s what you figure it’s supposed to be when you want to have fun going after something and just really work hard. Really work hard and then when you get it, it’s just the joy of watching someone who really cares.”



Haha, it’s brilliant how the people on set will and can have a lot of fun. But you have to come in prepared. You have to know your stuff, otherwise QT will murder you. I love that. He won’t tolerate slackness. I guess you have to be like that if you want something special at the end. I’m thinkin gof that clip now that wa sreleased quite a while ago where one of the girls in Death Proof didn’t say the line properly or something and QT made fun of her in front of everybody. Haha, it’s the only way you’ll learn I guess.

Thats just the written version of the audio interview that was posted on IESB last week.

Does anybody know when this is being released in the UK?

Its released in its original double feature format on June 1st in Uk & Ireland. Theres a rumour that its gonna have its european premiere at cannes as well!

June? Fucking hell. I can’t wait that long. Do you have a link? Where did you hear this?

WE’RE BAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!! I’m VERY HAPPY!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH ;D ;D

You dont know how relieved I am that this place is back. I was really scared that it was gone forever. WHEW!!!



Ahhhhhhhhhhh. Im gonna celebrate tonight!! :smiley:

Yeah the same here. I would really miss it! I go here on the forum several times each day and it hasn’t been the same after it was gone for a while! Its good to be back!

The only thing I am dissapointed about with GH is the damn box office. I dont usually care about that stuff but I was convinced it would be #1 or at least in the top 3. I dont think the Easter weekend was the right time to open it either.

Yes I know, I was also very dissapointed. The Weinsteins are re-releasing it though as two separate films

Damn, even the Americans are getting it split in two now :wink: Only they got the chance to see it how it’s supposed to be.

Glad to be back. Hope I get a chance to see it how it supposed to be though.

Grindhouse’s future:

I have been telling all my friends to see Grindhouse.



But after reading this, it does seem strange that the movie premiered in only one of the theaters in a 13 movie theater and only ran 4 times during the whole day. I was suspicious. usually, they premiere movies in 2 theaters, especially ones with that much hype.



I don’t know what went wrong. I had a great time. was it too specialized?? not made for the masses? I don’t know. I can’t see anyone NOT enjoying this film. is there such a thing as BAD advertising???



I love this movie and that’s all that counts. looking forwards to the DVD’s.
