| Anonymous | Everyone makes a big deal about Pulp Fiction and Resovoir Dogs but I think True Romance is probably the best thing Quentin wrote, but the original screen play is a little different than the movie. Actually the changes that they made in the movie didn't make it worse though. | |

That's not true. Rober Rodriguez directed it, Quentin Tarantino WROTE it and gave ideas and things. Rober Rodriguez also made desperado. Anyway, it's a fucking action/horror movie that's cheesy to make it more entertaining. It's not supposed to make you think. |

| The Retro Kat | Listen, Bro. The movie was split into two. If you've read any of this at all, ive previously stated that Quentin Tarintino did the regular part, and some mexican guy (not Cheech Marin) did the vampire part. It's like the movie Four Rooms, where a director takes each of the rooms. Bro. | |

Bro, go fuck yourself. It wasn't a good movie. But if you like that gory horror movie bullshit, you'll probably like it. So shut the fuck up and sit down. |

| Royal Tenenbaum | Ha, you're a hypocritical bitch-ass pussy. You just said it sucked, but now you're backpedaling because everyone thinks you're a douchebag. Get your opinions straight. | |

| O71394658 | Well, for sheer entertainment value, it wasn't bad. But that isn't at all what I'm talking about...as I hope you can see. | |

The Mexican guy showed up multiple times because he was motherfuckin' Cheech Martin. I was kind of disappointed with this movie because the setup gave me the idea that this was going to some incredibly inventive and stylish vampire movie. Then it suddenly spiralled off into, in my opinion, a pretty generic horror movie. I'm sure that without that setup I would've loved it all the way through. I mean, the fat kid did get torn to bits. And Sex Machine. I mean, Sex Machine! |

 You're bitching about character development in what's basically a vampire movie? Jesus fuck, get off your high horse. It was simply fun for what it was worth: a popcorn movie. Nothing more. Go watch fucking Magnolia again or something equally as pretentious. |

Okay, motherfucker. The plot was terrible. Admittedly, the movie started out fine. It develops a nice plot and is flowing greatly. But then, once they get to the "bar", the movie suddenly steers completely off course. It seems like the movie was split in two. The vampire scene was way too overdone. When the heads start rolling (literally), all sense flies out the fucking window. The logic just didn't come together. For example, they all seemed rather calm and cool after killing a room full of creatures not even known to exist. The big black guy actually launches into a tirade about wiping out a platoon in Vietnam moments after the slaughter climaxes. Not to mention the fact that they just witnessed the slaughter of a roomful of people and vampires, they listen intently to this. The one Mexican guy, when first introduced, appears to be badass. But, he "turns" all calm and corteous. Doesn't flow with his character at all. During this, Clooney (I forget his character's name) talks to the minister. He says something along the lines of, "I know those bastards came straight from Hell. If there's a Hell, then there's got to be a Heaven, there's gotta be." After the utterance of this tear-jerking sentence, the minister shakes his head vigorously in disagreement. But then, only the next sentence over, viola! Clooney asks, "Are you a mean motherfucking servant of God?" And, in the span of 3 seconds, the Preacher experiences an epiphany, suddenly changing his mind, thus accepting the role as the "mean motherfucking servant of God". Secondly, when they're trapped in the room, another logic hole develops. While they're searching amidst the crates and boxes, they uncover a box filled with hard liquor. Now called me old-fashioned, but wouldn't a Molotov be the perfect weapon against vampires. Flame. Light. Heat. It all fits rather nicely if you ask me. Instead, a crossbow (the girl turns out to be an excellent shot too), a shotty-bat cross, a super soaker, and a stick stuck in a motor. Wow, what a selection! Okay. Ready for another logic hole! Alright. Remember that oh-so-interesting battle between the vampires and the remaining humans? There are 4 vampires feeding on the Asian kid? Okay. Why do the kid and 4 vampires spontaneously combust when a bullet is placed into their midst? Doesn't make any damn sense to me. Additionally, there was one more thing that annoyed me. The Mexican guy played 3 roles in that movie. I don't know if anyone else noticed it, but I found it character rape. Anyone else? Okay. Your turn. |

| Zomboid | From Dusk till Dawn kicks ass. It's one of the best action movies ever. Tarantino wrote it and was on the set for pretty much the entire thing and gave input when needed. The dvd's commentary and that little documentary that comes with the collector's edition are good for fans. | |

| Royal Tenenbaum | Yeah, he wrote the script and acted in it. He had creative control, and it's just a damn good film. The sequels suck, but 95% of sequels do. | |
| Jun 19th, 2003 08:20 AM | ||
| noob3 | He didn't even make Dusk Till Dawn, he was just in it. He might of wrote something, but he definatley did not make it. And FDTD was an awsome vampire flick, alot better then any other crap you'd see with vampires nowadays. | |
