She doesn't speak English very well. But then, neither does Marion Cotillard.

Also the DP work in that one single take in Act II where the camera keeps rotating between the last German/translator/map/Pitt is really pretty nice.

Kill Bill 2 > Kill Bill 1 and I will fight to the death over it. I do think they should be looked at as one film though for these rankings.

I hear this a lot...and you typically have a solid view of films...so why do you view rank KB2 as > 1?

I see KB1 as a clearly superior film is just about every way..so much so that I almost rank it > than Pulp Fiction. Writing, directing, set design, pacing, score, acting, costume design, directing, camera work, stunt work, etc etc.

Haven't seen IG yet (going tomorrow) and have never seen Jackie Brown but it seems to me that Reservoir Dogs is 4 places too low.

KB1 is just a tighter, more constantly entertaining movie. There isn't a wasted millisecond of film in it. The soundtrack is also clearly superior (imo). Don't get me wrong, I love KB2, but I'd pick KB1 if forced to choose between the two.

KB1 > KB2 but my favorite part of both is everything that happens in David Carridine's house at the end. I can see how that scene alone could switch the order for some people.

Just rewatched Tarintino's room in Four Rooms. Way worse then I remembered, the ending is pretty awesome though.

He was even able to make the subtitles entertaining. I was cracking up when he would randomly use the German or French word in the subtitles instead of the English counterpart.

I was trying to figure out if there was any significance of him not translating the word to English. Does anyone have an idea? Sometimes when the character spoke "Oui" it would be subtitles as "Oui" and other times as "Yes".

Agree with A and was the primary question I had leaving the theater. I don't think there is a logical reason for this given Landa's true feelings about the war and his loyalties. The only thing I could think of was that he wasn't exactly sure of what the IB's were capable of at that time, and even if he was, probably hadn't thought the implications of their actions through completely yet and was just doing his duty.

good movie though.

I absolutely loved this movie, and was really let down my D9 (I realize they are incomparable, but many of my friends felt the opposite and I was like wtf?!?)

Tarantino is a hack. Dogs and PF were good because Stacey Sher was involved. Everything else he's done is self indulgent crap.

I was somewhat underwhelmed, after getting my hopes up from this thread. Guess I was expecting another pulp fiction/reservoir dogs type masterpiece.

Kill Bill v2 has better dialogue imo, and I really liked the ending. It just felt more like a Tarantino movie. But, unless IB somehow changes things, I'll still always rank them right next to each other since it's one story. I like both.
