Mr. Stewart, the movie is amoral, not unmoral or moral, it has no concept of either. It is, after all, a movie. Mr. Tarantino’s goal is not one of a message or of any sort of a statement, his goal is entertainment. I found every bit of his film entertaining as did many others, I didn’t think too hard about the abuse of women. The Bride proved herself a more than worthy foe. Bill killed her to kill a person, not to kill a woman. Please realize that this is after all, i repeat, a movie, not a bible.
quick, ask me if i care…
no
patrick stewart is just trying to get his name out there. do we have to know he saw his mom get beat up? is that required knowledge? he must be writing a book or something and needs alittle push. he dont have that much problem with his co star beating up women in movies
look at wolverine, he beats the shit outta girls in one and two:
rebecca romaign and that chinese chick
hypocrite.
and the guy who played nightcrawler was gay too, come to think of it that whole male cast might be alittle fruity, not the x men i envisioned.

British thespian Patrick Stewart has blasted movies like Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill - for helping to “stereotype violent attitudes of men to women”. Speaking at Friday’s launch of a new Amnesty International campaign against attacks on women in London, the Star Trek star revealed he witnessed his father beating his mother and claimed movies and TV have helped to perpetuate a nasty new trend. He says, “The entertainment industry has been extremely irresponsible in perpetuating and stereotyping the violent attitudes of men to women. I condemn utterly films like Kill Bill. We are told it is about empowering women. All it does is empower a woman to kill another woman.” [/quote]
To see that the own mother was beaten by the husband don´t make P.Stewart to an expert in violence against women. That´s ridiclious.
Maybe - like HellHound posted - he will publish a book about his youth…
And to see women in movies fight like Uma made us violent like men? wtf?
Are men violent cuz they saw men fighting?
Make it women violent when they now see women fighting?
I think that the most men and women are a little bit more intellegent than that.
btw he should refer to the point that Uma in reallity is a good example how women can make it! She is a mother of 2 children and work and she kicked this fucking Ethan out of her house, cuz he cheaten on her. (In german TV Ethan said, that the main problem in the marriage with Uma was the point that SHE wanted to be famous like him! What an asshole).
Anyway I don´t care what P. Stewart said. KB is a great movie and Stewart should go and see it, right now!
What Mr.Stewert said has been noted but what he fails to relize is that by blaming movies and television for violence in the household you take the responsibility out of the person who is commiting these crimes and you begin to tell them that its not their fault and they are not to blame but rather the fault of the people who create them.We learn when we are children to tell the difference between reality and fiction and anyone who would blame film and television for violence in the world has a misconsuption about whats real and whats not.If we continue to act in this way we make it ok for the people who commit violence to blame it on the people who use it for artistic value in film and television.

Truer words have never been spoken.
Amen to that
Patrick can kill my ass.
I can bet he never saw it -
One eg…I saw Hannibal a few times, so I knew what I was talking about, and this bitch writes into the paper one day (they were arguing over the violence etc in Aust) and said "in the first 20min I had to leave it was so violent and gory"
BULLSHT GIRL! The people who REALLY saw it, would have seen a gun shoot out between the good guys and bad guys…like they have in EVERY DAMN ACTION MOVIE!
So I can bet 100 bucks he’s judging what he’s imagined.
I agree with you guys…
hello Patrick! if you watched if you ever did maybe a bit more than the first 2 min, you would have noticed that the girl who had been "a victim of violence’ kicked the sht out of the ppl who did it to her…so i.e. it’s showing a reversal of gender steriotypes and make the women in this film more powerful than the men.
Uh… do you mean ‘kiss’ my ass?
Single greatst typo ever. Bravo.

I whole heartedly agree. Hey Patrick Stewart–what was your dad watching when he decided to abuse your mother? Because OBVIOUSLY by your logic he must’ve been watching tons of violent movies and television shows and that just made him think it was fine and dandy to hall off and beat your mom. It couldn’t have anything to do with the fact that these people are mentally unstable to begin with and have a bevy of problems that have NOTHING to do with what they watch. No, not at all. :
Stewart has his head up his ass. Him and Stephen King should be put on a boat and sent to JACKASS ISLAND.
LOL @ Stewart can Kill My Ass
hey not a fan of the X Men Movies
i thought it sucked
actors are faggy
HellHound, you’re KILLING ME!
‘faggy’ actors does not mean ‘bad’ actors.
I’ll spell it out again:
faggy != bad
there’s actually no real reason to say the X-men movies were bad.
ehhh
not what i thought x men shouldof been like
no gambit
Gambit is too much like Wolverine in attitude. I can understand not putting him in.
its not for everyone man
get over it
youre not gonna turn me
sick of the series and wont support it
it’ll kill itself sure enough, people will just get sick of it and they’l keep pumping em out with more hack characters and faggy actors
excuse me for having an oppinion
well… the opinion is ill-founded and poorly constructed. You again used ‘faggy actors’ which I think we’ve proven is just incorrect. And if it hasn’t ‘killed itself’ yet, it probably won’t.
Nothing against you, it’s just that I wish people would actually come up with rational reasons when they say something is ‘bad.’ You haven’t.
Que sera, sera
ob la di ob la da
etc. etc.
god help me if i dont like x men
i think i’ll live
dont like the popcorn flicks like everyone else
