Film Pulp Fiction

[His Name Is Frank]

I read in a movie trivia thing that all the clocks in the movie are set to the time 4:20. Never checked it out for myself, gonna do that next time I watch..

It's not true. There's more than one scene that shows a clock set at a different time. Remember when Marcellus called the Wolf? It was 7:22 in the am. I'm almost positive they showed the time in Jimmy's kitchen,too.

 

[Rated E]

Rated E - OMG I cant believe you hadnt seen Pulp Fiction until yesterday. That is insane!


My favorite scene is when Christopher Walken comes to tell Butch when he was a child about his father and his watch.

haha, I loved that scene.

I was so surprised when Christopher Walken appeared on screen. He rocks. And is probably the only person in the world who could have done that scene.


Also it was weird watching this movie so recently. Because I noticed how a few of the scenes in the movie have been parodied by shows (like Seinfeld and the Simpsons) or done little shout outs to this movie.

Like that scene in the Simpsons episode where Wiggum and Snake are wrestling in the street and they burst through the door of the old guy with one arm's shop, and get tied up similar to in Pulp Fiction.

And that Seinfeld episode where Elaine opens a store that just sells muffin tops ("top of the muffin to ya"), and Kramer comes up with the idea that she has to cook the whole muffin then pull the top off, or it won't taste as good. So Elaine ends up with thousands of muffin bottoms that she can't get rid of (not even at the homeless shelter). So Kramer suggest that they call Newman, the problem solver (at which point a parody of the Wolf from Pulp Fiction takes place.)

 

[Rated E]

"English motherfucker, do you speak it."

 

[wArEhOuSePuNk]

" Say what one more time muthafucka i dare you"

My two favorite lines that Samuel L Jackeson says in this movie are...

"Usually they'd be dead as fried-fuckin-chicken."

and

"BITCH BE COOL! BITCH BE COOL! HEY, TELL THAT BITCH BE COOL!"

Jules: You, flock of seagulls, you know why we're here? Why don't you tell my man Vincent where you got the shit hid?
Marvin: It's over there.
Jules: I don't remember askin' you a Goddamn thing! You were saying?
Roger: It's in the cupboard. No, no, the one by your knees.
Jules: We happy? Vincent! We happy?
Vincent: Yeah, yeah, we happy.
Brett: I'm sorry, I didn't get your name. I got your name, Vincent, right? But I didn't get...
Jules: My name's Pith. And your ass ain't talkin' your way out of this shit.
Brett: No, no, I just want you to know... I just want you to know how sorry we are that things got so fucked up with us and Mr. Wallace. We got into this thing with the best intentions and I never...
Jules: [Jules shoots the man on the couch] I'm sorry, did I break your concentration? I didn't mean to do that. Please, continue, you were saying something about best intentions. What's the matter? Oh, you were finished. Well then, allow me to retort. What does Marsellus Wallace look like?
Brett: What?
Jules: What country are you from?
Brett: What?
Jules: What ain't no country I ever heard of. They speak English in What?
Brett: What?
Jules: English, motherfucker, do you speak it?
Brett: Yes.
Jules: Then you know what I'm sayin'!
Brett: Yes.
Jules: Describe what Marsellus Wallace looks like!
Brett: What?
Jules: Say what again. Say what again, motherfucker, say what one more Goddamn time!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jules: Hey kids! How you boys doin'?
[to man laying on the couch]
Jules: Hey, keep chillin'. You know who we are? We're associates of your business partner Marsellus Wallace. You do remember your business partner don't you? Let me take a wild guess here. You're Brett, right?
Brett: Yeah.
Jules: I thought so. You remember your business partner Marsellus Wallace, don't you, Brett?
Brett: Yeah, yeah, I remember him.
Jules: Good. Looks like me an Vincent caught you boys at breakfast. Sorry about that. Whatcha havin'?
Brett: Hamburgers.
Jules: Hamburgers! The cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast. What kind of hamburgers?
Brett: Ch-cheeseburgers.
Jules: No, no no, where'd you get 'em? McDonalds? Wendy's? Jack in the Box? Where?
Brett: Big Kahuna Burger.
Jules: Big Kahuna Burger. That's that Hawaiian burger joint. I hear they got some tasty burgers. I ain't never had one myself. How are they?
Brett: They're good.
Jules: Mind if I try one of yours? This is yours here, right?
[Picks up burger and takes a bite]
Jules: Mmm-mmmm. That is a tasty burger. Vincent, ever have a Big Kahuna Burger?
[Vincent shakes his head]
Jules: Wanna bite? They're real tasty.
Vincent: Ain't hungry.
Jules: Well, if you like burgers give 'em a try sometime. I can't usually get 'em myself because my girlfriend's a vegitarian which pretty much makes me a vegitarian. But I do love the taste of a good burger. Mm-mm-mm. You know what they call a Quarter Pounder with cheese in France?
Brett: No.
Jules: Tell 'em, Vincent.
Vincent: A Royale with cheese.
Jules: A Royale with cheese! You know why they call it that?
Brett: Because of the metric system?
Jules: Check out the big brain on Brett! You're a smart motherfucker. That's right. The metric system. What's in this?
Brett: Sprite.
Jules: Sprite, good. You mind if I have some of your tasty beverage to wash this down?
Brett: Go right ahead.
Jules: Ah, hit the spot.

My two favorite lines that Samuel L Jackeson says in this movie are...

"Usually they'd be dead as fried-fuckin-chicken."

Jules: Normally, both your asses would be dead as fucking fried chicken, but you happen to pull this shit while I'm in a transitional period so I don't wanna kill you, I wanna help you. But I can't give you this case, it don't belong to me. Besides, I've already been through too much shit this morning over this case to hand it over to your dumb ass.

 

[TALLY]

^yeah, thats what I said.:D

 

[trancedeviate]

"Let me ask you something. When you came in here, did you see a sign out in front that said dead nigger storage?"

"No, I didn't."

"Good, thats because the sign isnt there, because storing dead niggers aint my FUCKIN BUSINESS!!"
----------------------------------

"What now between you and me? I'll tell you what now between you and me. There IS no you and me."






Awesome movie.

^^ why did they make Jimmy come off as a racist.
I never understood that?? " Jimmy " wrote the movie. I wonder what Samuel L. Jackson thought off that.....

He didn't come off as a racist to me. First of all,he was friends with Jules. Second,they showed a scenerio of what would happen if Jimmy's wife Bonnie came home and saw the body. Bonnie was mos def a black woman. That was just the way Jimmy talked. That's the way most black people talk to each other. If Jimmy's character was black,I'm sure the dialogue would have been the same.

Bonnie was mos def a black woman.

how do you figure that one out? it never even occurred to me.

 

[Rated E]

Bonnie looked like a black woman to me.

Yea I don't think he did either. This movie is a depiction of criminals and the world they live in. I'm sure they don't bother with pleasantries like avoiding using the N-word.

Also, if someone is going to focus on these few lines in the movie, it just doesn't make sense to me. There was not a racist attitude or racist ideas expressed in the movie. So why would someone get caught up over the use of the word?

Think about it. The leader, the person who everyone answers to, Marcellus Wallace, is a black man. Jules is black as well, and he comes off as a well read, and intelligent character.

i don't remember even seeing Bonnie? i thought they got out of there before she turned up...

eeeehhh i need to watch this again soon.

uhhhhh anybody who is white that even uses the N word is a racist.....especially to a black person.
Thomas Jefferson fucked & impregnated his slaves. was he not a racist to?


dont believe me? go call a black person a nigger..... friend or foe youre gonna get your ass kicked ----- @ least in America

eeeehhh i need to watch this again soon.

there's a fuckin hilarious "what if" shot where bonnie walks into her house to find her husband and two men carrying a body through and when they see her they all stop and GASP!

 

[JerryBlunted]

depends. some white people can get away with it with some black people they know well. i wouldnt walk around slinging that word, but hey... it doesn't automatically equate to a racist.

youtube link or it didn't happen.

:D

 

[L2R]

you see it during this line:

JULES:
You got to appreciate what an explosive element this Bonnie situation is. If she comes home from a hard day's work and finds a bunch of gangsters doin' a bunch of gangsta' shit in her kitchen, ain't no tellin' what she's apt to do.

bah fudge it.... here's some screenshots i just took with my phone. just for you fritz.

it's such an utterly delightful shot which made me laugh very loudly the first few times.

 

[felix]

bah fudge it.... here's some screenshots i just took with my phone. just for you fritz.
