So I Just Came Back From Seeing "Grindhouse"

Never seen anything like this...Ever. Brilliant in every aspect. So brilliant, it made 300 look like crap, imo. I'll probably end up seeing it again.

I hope there will be an unrated version. When you see the movie you'll know why I said that

Check out a review (May contain spoliers) here

If you know nothing about this film, you can check out the movie's website here

Yea, bro. But don't base the movie just from that scene. Planet Terror was done really really well. Things Resident Evil should've done but didn't. Fighting was great.

best time at the movies EVER!
i saw the first showing today and it was just so damn good, like a blowjob. iv been waiting three years to see this film.

k first off we canadians got a fake trailer no one else had called 'Hobo with a shotgun'. this trailer was so damn good on the big screen, the whole audience loved it. then came the Machete trailer which was so fuckin great that its being made into a real movie now (source: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0985694/). after those two trailers came Planet Terror by Robert Rodriguez. if you hate gore, mexicans, texas, and little 7 year olds getting shot in the face, then this is not the movie for you, u little pussy panzy ass piece of shit. Planet Terror is probably one of the best Zombie flicks you will ever see since the original Dawn of the Dead. during the sex scene with Rose McGowan and Freddy Rodr�guez, there was a missing reel and 20 minutes of plot was missing. but the audience still loved it and was laughing.
after planet terror was over we got to see 3 more fake trailers.

Werewolf Women of the S.S. by rob zombie
Nicolas Cage as Fu Manchu...nuff said

the most sick and twisted trailer of em all, 20 seconds had to be cut from the trailer to avoid an NC-17...cant wait for the DVD

then came Tarantino's Death Proof. Death Proof started out with really bad intentional funny editing. its hard to explain, u have to see it for yourself. first half of the movie is just girls doing girl talk and being whores. but its starts to pick up later on and turns into a fucking good tarantino movie. probably my 2nd favorite taratino film(1st is pulp fiction).

long story short, go watch Grindhouse.

caught the 8pm show on opening nite and loved it. planet terror got dragging past the mid point but def. watchable, im just not a fan of rodriguez's style of dialog & storytelling. death proof had a simpler plot but the flow & delivery was awesome, solid performance shown by kurt russell and dialog and story was done properly in typical tarantino dopeness. all the actors in it came thru and mind you, robert & quentin really took their time to keep it real as they possible could have... film glitches, missing reels, static, fake trailers all had you in the 70s vibe from beginning to end.

big ups to tarantino & rodriguez givin us something out the ordinary and also giving the cinematic experience a breath of fresh air. more so than judging the 2 films in detail, i believe that the concept they stuck to and pulling it off is more meaningful. peep it. peace.

This happened 2 times during both films I believe. Not sure about the 20 min of missing reel part, but I think this leaves some goodness for the unrated DVD version :hopes:

Yea and? You see alot of posts on TA that has nothing to do with Trance. In fact, alot of events posted on TA are House music related
