its a basic tarantino type of movie, but i felt the slow parts were worth getting through for the ending, it wasn't any 'epic' ending or anything, but entertaining


i also watched the illusionist tonight.....eh

^^i think you gotta consider the type of films death proof and planet terror are paying tribute to when watching either one. i thought they were both done really well in glorifying the quarks of b-movie/exploitation/grindhouse films and a lot of what i loved about death proof is quentin's attention to detail in paying homage to that style.

^yeah, i'm goin with the prestige as well

I feel the dvd is a lot slower because they added in a lot more crap to draw it out so that it wouldn't seem like such a rip off to market Grind House as two different dvds.

weird -- my co-worker and i were talking about this movie yesterday afternoon. Machine-gun-leg girl was much more enjoyable imho.

^^^I'm totally aware and have seen plenty of the "genre" of films they were paying homage to. I just didn't enjoy it. I though planet terror was a lot of fun to watch, but I didn't like Death Proof. To each his own I suppose.

Death Proof >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Planet Terror. Anyone on half a hit of LSD looking through the action section of blockbuster could've pieced together the script for planet terror

originally I was a little confused because I thought Death Proof WAS the machine-gun leg girl movie lol

so eventually I realized that it I was wrong, obviously

^^^but, as someone else pointed out earlier, that was kind of the point.

still, I liked Deathproof much better than Planet of Terror.

Planet Terror is garbage that's fun to watch once.

Death Proof is a fine film.

With that said, the theatrical version is much better than the DVD version.

No, it is not a fine film. It is terrible.

I bet you would let Q.T. fuck you in the ass wouldn't you?

You've got a badass villain (who turns into a pussy, which is even better), a badass heroine, a bunch of good puns, and one of the best car chases ever filmed. What's not to love?

I would not let QT fuck me in the ass, but if Zoe Bell asked to fuck me in the ass I would oblige.

i went and saw grindhouse in theaters, and all i remember from death proof was that it's a bunch of bullshit QT dialogue for 75% of the movie

Yeah, its Tarantino's least entertaining dialogue by far, including the scripts of the movies he didn't direct.

Also, the scene in the diner in Lebanon is a single shot...somewhere around nine minutes.

Planet Terror is better. It has zombie Fergie!

It doesn't have zombie Fergie. It has Fergie and then emptied-out Fergie skull.

Don't get me wrong, there are good bits, but I was much more entertained by the fact that they shot the movie twice, with and without Tony, so that Rebel Rodriguez wouldn't know that his character dies.

Planet Terror is good in that it has a good amount of action, rose mcgowan is super hot (and the blonde chick too i forget her name, even with her bleeding eye shadow), and a bunch of zombie shooting up. Just a good fun movie watching experience.

Death Proof was decent, but i hated the second segment of it. There is too much bullshit talking and not enough exciting stuff. At least the first segment they are all out at the bar doing whatever and kurt russell is actually a normal person for a while and he was really funny during that whole scene. The car crash scene at the end of the first segment wins at life.
