right! keep going!
should we say QT or Tony Scott did these references?
the lamp thing is not in the script, so I assume that Scott did it himself…

Check out the first sticky topic on this page
damn sorry I didn’t check the sticky topic, I just went through the normal ones…
please delete/merge this one!
there is a the French poster of Dressed to Kill in Clarence’s appartment. Regarding the posters in Dick’s appt, QT says in his audio commentary that all the choices was made by the art director and if it was him, he would have never put the poster of Reflexion in a golden eye, that it didn’t seem right for Dick Ritchie.

yeah id say its more likely ‘performance’ (one of my fave films ever) especially if its not in the script, coz tony scott made a reference to ‘performance’ in that bmw short film a couple of years ago as well, the one with gary oldman and marilyn manson
oh really? i haven’t seen this commercial i only heard about it…

Talk about coincidence, I just bought this film on dvd 8)
is it any good? never heard of it, but if TS did a reference to it…
as long as I ain’t seen it, I’ll keep believeing the lamp thing is a reference to OUATITW.
wait- it could be a reference to both!

Allright, since True Romance will get its own forum category once we get the new software, I’ll start a True Romance references thread right now. There’s tons of references to other movies in True Romance. I’ll start of naming a few. Please rewatch this movie and watch out for posters hanging in the background etc.
- A Better Tomorrow 2 (plays in Clarence’s living room)
- The Mack (plays in Drexl’s joint)
- My Blood runs cold (poster hangs in Dick Richie’s house)
- Highway 301 (yet another poster in Dick’s appartment, a film from 1950)
- The Streetfighter
- Sister Streetfighter
- Return of the Streetfighter
(those play in the theater’s triple feature)
- Doctor Zivago (they talk about it, camoeing the coke)
- Mr Majestik (Drexl calls Clarence Mr Majestik)
Now we dont wanna just list them, we wanna explain them. even a bit more than I just did.

Is A Better Tomorrow 2 the movie is being watched in his apartment, with Alabama making noises too, it looks great (has people fighting wiht swords and guns).
Is A Better Tomorrow any good?
Anyone?
Just rent the movie and see for yourself!! Why do you need peoples reassurance a movies good before you watch it? Its John Woo & Chow Yun Fat, how bad can it be?
Make sure to check out the killer and hard boiled too! 
Any Woo besides MI2 and Windtalkers! haha 
Haha, true true!
Woo should be mandatory.
True True. Gotta love Da Woo!
