Even though I never was into comics, I'm loving these comic movies. The ending of Avengers caught my attention, I looked up who that guy was, and I liked what I saw (Thanos). If he is in Avengers 2, I don't see how they will be able to beat him. I also looked up World War Hulk, that seems very interesting as well.

I have no idea how Batman keeps hitting Superman in comics while Superman looks like he's feeling the punches. Someone on my instant messenger said it's probably kryptonite though.

I think that movie is good, but I don't get how it can be in a top 10 list.

It's not nearly as good as Reservoir Dogs that Tarantino did and that movie barely gets mentioned.

I loved Pulp Fiction. Everybody getting in trouble, some good old revenges, and a lot of good stuff in the middle. It's like Friday, poor Jewels.

That quote right there, it was built up for years for me from the internet.
And it's not even that powerful in the movie, it's also part of an even longer sentence. It's not like that's the only thing he says.
The Samuel L Jackson parts were dope though, wish he was the whole movie.

The thing I like about the movie is the intertwined stories all going on at the same time though, with the times events happened mixed up but you get it, sorta like Kill Bill. It starts with showing her list, and you see she already had names striked out. Also Momento is something else that mixes up the time line. This topic just makes me put Pulp Fiction at the top of my movies to watch when I get a chance.

I'm not getting on your case about not liking it btw. People have opinions and tastes. I'm just talking about the movie because you gave me a reason to.

I like Bruce and Ving's situation with the rednecks lol. Cracks me up each time.

Vincent's situation with Ving's wife how scared he was of keeping her company, because he heard a story about how Ving killed a man for giving her a foot massage. I'm laughing at this just by typing it. Then she overdosed on his drugs and he knew he was a dead man if he didn't fix it hahah. (Calm down ploid, stop laughing.)

The movie had so many good moments in it for me. Like Jewels not killing the people in the diner, and even reciting his final you're dead words to them.

I agree, the stories intertwining were great. That brings me to another question, ever seen Crash?

I saw it, it was pretty good from what I remember. It was so long ago though. Also Vantage Point, and some other movie where they had 4 segmented squares on the screen recording 4 different people real time for in a movie and they sometimes interacted with each other bringing their squares together, and i think all 4 was in a scene which allowed them to use the full screen. I only saw that movie once but my mind was blown on the one take to do all that.

Dhil had me tricked for a second. I felt bad.

It's been longer than 7 years, full spoilers are permitted.
Crash was excellent, I had high hopes for Vantage Point because the plot was intriguing to me, but I remember thinking it was like thumbs middle. Good concept, fun idea but it wasn't fully executed.

Saw Ted for the first time, some of the lines were fantastic but the idea behind the movie was only ok.

I saw The Watch also, with Ben Stiller etc. Man, I thought that movie was going to be totally different. When Jonah Hill busts in and gives his mom the finger, I just about cried laughing.

Great movie. I want that future where you can talk to stuff that fluently and it responds naturally. I'll never need to look at a monitor again, though so many jobs would be replaced.

Heard good things about that movie, and Spike Jonze does great work.

I just saw "Johnny Got His Gun (1971)" for the first time :(

Now this has to be the inspiration for "I No Mouth Yet I Must Scream."
