1. Pulp Fiction
2. Reservoir Dogs
3. Jackie Brown
4. Kill Bill, Vol. 1
5. Kill Bill, Vol. 2

That's almost in reverse chronological order. I think Tarantino's become less and less interesting and creative as his career has progressed.

I still look forward to anything Tarantino does, but maybe what Capo meant by least creative is that he has become a little gimmicky in his last few movies? Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs were his own ideas. Jackie Brown was an Elmore Leonard adaptation, so not entirely his own idea. Kill Bill and Grindhouse were tributes to kung-fu/spaghetti westerns, and B movies. I loved all of his movies, but I would like to see him write something completely original again.

I'd like to see him crack at a mob movie. He's already done a gangster picture with RESERVOIR DOGS, but I'm saying a full-blown mob movie like a GOODFELLAS, CASINO, GODFATHER, etc.

Did you get the one for V FOR VENDETTA last year? I did and I was at Best Buy at 10am when they opened. I grabbed 1 and then 2 guys behind grabbed some as well. They were almost out in the first couple of minutes of them opening the store.

Hmmm... I was hoping for something a bit more exciting.

But oh well, the features seem great, and I'm sure the transfer will be too.

Yeah, but "Special Edition" sort of implies a holographic Travis Bickle swooping down in a flying taxi cab, ascending from flames, and grabbing a live chicken from the neck and using it to club pimps over the head.

I mean, that's how I've been envisioning the cover art for the past five years or so.

I'm actually considering doing that. No, really. I shit you not.

I actually think that if we could get together a fake petition here on the boards, and then sent it to Sony, we'd have a seriously funny gag on our hands.

Word.

I'll write them a fake, goofy letter tonight and look for a site to make a petition on.

Rounders is a very underrated movie. Edward Norton plays a great Johnny Boy-esque asshole. Johnny Boy being De Niro's character in Mean Streets. So, go see that too.

See, this kid LLC ain't all bad. And until those bestiality charges are proven, I don't want anyone picking on him.

ROUNDERS is a great flick, alot of fun. My absolute favorite part is when they go get barber shaves to Claudio Villa singing Las Strada Del Bosco.

What'd you expect from an old wop like me?

Mine is when Matt Damon walks in on the judges playing cards and he helps one of them. Finally one of the other judges looks at him and says, "we've only seen the first hand. What the f*ck are you betting into us for?"
