actually didn't Tarantino manage to get his name tacked onto Iron Monkey? I would have voted that over any of his actual films

Death Proof > IB, at the end of the day
this is a, how you say, interesting contention. I like Death Proof a lot, but the dialogue with the first set of girls really detracts imho

I really liked IB. Better than DP I think but they're pretty different movies so it's tough to compare.
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:27 (twelve years ago) link
i mean STEALTH is not very good but its mentalism is gung ho and hilarious which is more than can be said for some of the o_O movies on this list

The Wild Bunch deserves a better defense than given on this thread so far. really changed the way I thought about/watched films in general and westerns in particular.
― max buzzword (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:37 (twelve years ago) link
live n die in la is great, similar vibe to the hidden but no thrash aliens
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:37 (twelve years ago) link
also while we're updating this thread with how it affected our daily lives:
i thought about the akira cartoon ade posted while i was driving home from work, about 8 hours after i had first seen it, and laughed out loud
― ⚓ (gr8080), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:38 (twelve years ago) link
i can't remember if i've ever seen The Hidden 2 or not, i shd put that right
― dayove cool (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:38 (twelve years ago) link
for cartoon fans can i point out there's a load of violent action in the Road Runner series

well yeah but i didn't vote that either :D
― dayove cool (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:42 (twelve years ago) link
when i first saw this thread i thought to myself 'i wouldve voted for the hidden' true story
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:42 (twelve years ago) link
tb totally honest The Hidden loses a bit of steam and the budget obviously didn't allow for the whole thing to have the total owning intensity of the first 15 minutes but it's still conceptually perfect

I like Tarantino a lot, but the dialogue really detracts imho

One of the few moments I loved in IB: when dude pulls out the ridiculous pipe.
