    Reservoir Dogs – Just the Tip

    Feb 2022 · raised by Rob

    "Oti points to Mr. Blonde and Vincent Vega and the callbacks that build his own world, but it does little for either of you; KT tells the super fans to go watch something else."

    Pulp Fiction – Big Gimpin’

    Feb 2022 · raised by Rob

    "Oti points to the Vega connection and KT to Fox Force Five pointing towards Kill Bill, but KT says it's cool if you notice it, then go outside; Oti puts the forum digging down to fandom."

    Jackie Brown – Top Grier

    Feb 2022 · raised by Rob

    "Oti sees no link to Tarantino's other films beyond echoes of Pam Grier's Coffy and Foxy Brown, and KT wants Jackie Brown to stand alone, unconnected to any universe."

    Kill Bill – All Bride Out

    Feb 2022 · raised by Rob

    "KT calls Fox Force Five the biggest film within a film and Oti links Bill to the Kung Fu nod in Pulp Fiction; KT spots the Paula Schultz tombstone but has no time for that granular detail."

    Inglourious Basterds – Miniature Strudel

    Feb 2022 · raised by Rob

    "You keep it light: KT says the film feels insular like Jackie Brown, and you joke about which Samuel L. Jackson character turns up here, with Oti settling on his Jackie Brown role."

    Django Unchained – Nuts & Schultz

    Feb 2022 · raised by Rob

    "KT admits she has become the film bro she mocked during Kill Bill, linking Paula Schultz's gravestone to Christoph Waltz's Dr. Schultz here, before steering the talk to Samuel L. Jackson and Tarantino."
