KILL BILL VOLUME ONE tv spot tested and described!
Hey folks, Harry here with The Great Dr Scott and his amorous adventures in spydom... Best of luck Dr Scott, and good work!
Harry:
Don't know if this counts as a scoop or not, but I thought it was cool.
Today, while wandering through the mall, I was confronted by a girl with pink hair and a nose ring holding a clipboard. She said, "Hey, handsome, got time?"
Well, I got a weakness for punk-haired girls with nose rings who call me "handsome". Especially ones with clipboards. So, of course, I said that, yeah, I had time. She told me I was gonna watch some trailers for a movie and then be interviewed on what I thought about them. I'd gone through this once before, and the trailer I ended up having to critique nine ways to sunday was for WILD WILD WEST. Nevertheless, I agreed, and she took me into a small room in this CINESURVEY (or something like that) office.
Then she left, and an older woman who looked like Angela Lansbury came in, with her own clipboard. I had been duped, and what was worse, by the looks of Ol' Mother Hubbard sitting there with me, I'd be doing analysis for some weepy Merchant Ivory shit.
So, imagine my surprise when she answers my question ("So, what the hell am I gonna be watching, anyway?") with: "Oh, some thing called KILL BILL".
She jumped a foot when I yelled, " No fucking shit?!"
Well, here's what I got for ya: She showed me several TV trailers that have been cut for the movie. The footage is just as great as that first teaser, but with some new stuff:
Opens with THE BRIDE in Voice Over talking about how "they left me to die..." etc, and we see guns going off...
We see a butt walking away from the camera, swiveling hips, which leads into-
Daryl Hannah saying "You better never wake up" (or something like that, AKA- O.S.L.T.)
CU of the Bride's eye, snapping open, her thrashing her way out of bed,
Some shots of kung fu, motor cycles in an underground tunnel, that shot of Lucy Lui and gang walking toward the camera,
Then the screen divides into 4 boxes: Bill, Michael Jai White, Lucy Lui, and Vivica Fox doing various violent acts
Then Vivica Fox saying in VO: "You should want to get even with me..." (OSLT)
While we see The BRIDE tearing up the House of Blue Leaves...
And The BRIDE SAYS: "I'd have to kill you..." (VO)
And we see Uma Thurman tracing a square in the air with her finger, a la PULP:
"..for us to be 'square'".
Then we see One of the Yubari sisters laughing on one half of the screen, while the other divides into the title which reads: KILL BILL VOLUME ONE OCT. 10
Through all of this, I was amazed at all the different colors more than anything else. Filters, gels, film stock, all seemed to change with every cut that was in this clip, which I was astounded to see at the end had only been 30 seconds long! All the ones I saw were a variation on this one, just some of the shots in different order. Anyway, you can expect to see this any day now on TV, I guess.
I couldn't believe my luck, and then it got better: On the way out, I got the punky girl's number. New Tarantino, and a cute chick's number....I'm too good.
Well, hope you'll share this, call me
THE GREAT DR SCOTT

explain please............ :)

I hope not... that's not very Tarantino-esque. He's more original than that. Besides, do we need the allusion? We KNOW it's a Quentin Tarantino movie!! We've all been waiting for YEARS!! Other than that, I'm actually very pumped about this movie. Two volumes uncut is better than one volume missing great cinema.
-
I had to view the trailer for "Boys on the Side". When they asked me to evaluate it, I focused on the fact that Drew Barrymore's character seemed to be a lesbian.

Starring Marlon Brando and Sir Laurence Olivier. I told them it just didn't work and because it needed to have Hulk Hogan in it fighting some big dude with a lazy eye. Who would have thought they would have listened to the Goat? "You're mine, brother!" As for Kill Bill, it might be good, it might be bad. Who cares? It will make money twice over and that's all Tarantino cares about. Well, that and talking to anyone who will listen for 12 hours without taking a breath. Goodnight, old man...goooooooodnight.
-
you got the girl's number? Yeah, go ahead and try to make yourself sound cool for thousands of people to read!
In reality, you asked for her number, and she told you to "fuck off". :-D
Can't wait to see this film. It looks phantastic!

by mr brownstone
which ended with me killing everybody in the mother fucking room.

And the number she gave him was "6." Dude, she gave you a fucking SIX! You get stone, man.
-
Hot dang! The only thing I've ever been asked to give MY opinion on in a shopping centre was a new shampoo advert! Still, at least I got a better deal than the poor sod who had to watch Steven Seagal...
-
I got it for The Sweetest Thing. Tottaly ruined a good day.
-
Tarantino? More original, says one poster? Please! Isn't "tarantino" some Tuscan dialect for "derived?" His whole shtick is borrowing (OK, some would say stealing...) from a thousand sources. That's neither good nor bad, but to think that he wouldn't rip his own stuff off is too cute. I'll be in line to see the movie too (maybe 2/3 of the way towards the end), but I'm not one to defend Tarantino as anything other than a hack--a very talented hack, but a hack.
-
Seriously, i'll more than likely get verbally assulted for my thoughts but i saw the trailer before watching PiratesOTC and thought it was laughable, sterile, dull and unimaginative. Pirates rock hard though so all was well. Oh yeah, this is just my opinion. If my younger brother, whom i have had heated debates over this, says it is great then who knows, i prob won't bother though.
-
The first reation to this Cool News was JMWester's stink bomb. The QT 'hack' shit is sooooo fucking tired. Saying that crap over and over by whomever whenever does not make it so. Frankly, IT is UNORIGINAL. For all the haters, please get a nice digital movie camera and film the shit that emerges from your asses. That would be the original shit only you can appreciate. Knock yourselves out! Dr Scott, thanks for the nice descriptions of the 'hack' TV spot. Only just about a month now! Make sure your nuts sacks are in shape. Girls, tighten up your bra straps.

Sorry, Pirates ROCKED Hard. There, that's better, although that film can't be praised enough.

she made a rectangle in pulp, silly tarentino

I was working on this stupid job, setting people up for movie screenings when I met this guy... at first I thought he was kind of a dork, especially when he mistook the total goth look I was going for, for some outdated punk look, I mean I'm like so past that, but after talking to him for a little bit I was intrigued... you've gotta be intrigued by a guy in his late 30's wearing a Blink-182 shirt and reading a Spiderman comic. He didn't look too psyched about the screening but it was hard to gauge his reaction, with his staring at my tits and all. Anyway, I left for a little while to hit up some more sheep over at the Footlocker, but when I got back this dude was pacing back and forth muttering to himself. I thought maybe he's one of those Rain Man types counting matchsticks or something, but when he saw me he perked up like a happy retarded child and ran over and asked for my number in between spit takes. Totally romantic. Anyway, he called, so last night we went out... I picked him up at his parents house and took him for a drink... he was still wearing that same outfit from the day before, but whatever... he didn't seem to interested in me or the drink as much as he was in the Superman pinball game in the corner, so we hit the road pretty early. When we got back to his house, I gave him a quick blowjob in the front seat of my car but he blew his load all over the leather upholstery in like two seconds... no, I know what you're thinking, I didn't swallow, but hey I just met this guy... I love teasing geeks though. So, if you happen to be at one of our next screenings, don't be afraid to ask for my number... I'm down with you dorks.

Didn't take long.......

I can't think of any other part that one of the Yubari sisters laughs in.

wasn't he a Batman Animated Villian with Chris Plummer's voice?
-
You got the punky girl's number. Congrates.

Just as another Talkbacker managed to have Hulk Hogan inserted into "No Holds Barred", I singlehandedly sunk "The Matrix: Reloaded". The spunky chick with the clipboard (who resembled Rachel Leigh Cook) showed me fifteen minutes of the movie, and it featured crisp dialogue, action, and some nude scenes with Carrie Ann Moss. I revolted, demanding inane and pretentious dialogue, less action, and a ridiculous dance/sex scene. The rest, as they say, is history.
-
What's her phone number. I too have a weakness for-- well, chicks.

You know, the photographer who gets beheaded by a flying pane of windowglass in The Omen and Billy Zane's gun-toting henchman in Titanic. Oh, on-topic.. Seems pretty silly to test screen a mere TV spot.
-
Because they aren't advertising it. Where are the comercials. I just saw the preview to "The Incredibles" and that is coming out November of 2004. Whoever is behind Kill Bill's advertising should get their asses whooped.

lessee, multiple film formats, Robert Richardson, lots of hype trying to look badass as the last word on violence. too bad the thing it lacks is a director, I mean an original point of view.

I know the background players should never interfere with the tom cruise. I'm also typing randomly, cuz it's that kind of thread, looks like!

Personally, I'm glad Pat Boone raped whoever you think he raped. And I hope in his next movie Tarantino makes a billion dollars for filming "I'm Thurgood Marshall" starring himself. Why am I glad about these things, and why do I hope these things? Because it makes you angry and hopefully that makes you suffer. Next time invent cannon first, and then you too can steal the culture of whoever you want and make money off of it.
-
i saw the preview for the enormous Hulk Hogan vehicle, "Mr. Nanny" in a mall-survey a long while back. twice. beat that suckas. (and for some reason the little kids in the preview room with us went nuts for it)
-
This story is a load of crap because the hard part i have believing is that he got the hot girls number. Yeah right dr scott.
