revenge is a dish best served cold

ok, so the stalwart among us stayed up half the night watching kill bill volumes 1 & 2 back to back..........after which i was informed that IF we had had the sense to also rent magnolia, we could have counted this evening as a bonafide loyal opposition film festival.........ah well.....what is life if not a series of missed opportunities................anyway......i was not a fan of pulp fiction..........to say that i didn't get it is an understatement...............but i was blown away by the humor in kill bill...........uma was awesome.................and the sets a whole new target for those aspiring to make a 'camp' film........it was instantly 'camp'....of course, this sentiment requires one to get beyond the violence.............which one can do after one establishes that the woman was left for dead.............her actions take screen violence to john wayne status........in fact, there may have been a john wayne film on a tv in the backround at some point..................or at least a similar genre of film......it is quite obvious that tarentino is a student of film....and that he loves film....all film..................ah well..................now i will have to watch magnolia.........just to complete an installment version of the l.o.f.f........................
