dialogue was awesome, ppl who think otherwise are obviously too stupid to appreciate it
what would u rather watch? the same cliche bullshit that pervades 90% of movies today… obviously chances are high because this is what sells…
this both disgusts and delights me as it affirms that i am much smarter than everybody
go watch The Mist u dumbfucks
This just in - The SATs and the ACT have been dropped by all state universities as an application requirement. Their replacement? A review of the movie Death Proof and it will be graded as either pass or fail. Pass if you like it, fail if you didn’t.

you say this as a joke but i bet if u did this and looked at the intelligence levels of the respondents they would be significantly higher in the group that said they liked the movie
(i however give ur post a 1300, it made me laugh heartily)
Don’t get me wrong. I think Death Proof was a very good movie and better than Planet Terror, but it’s by no mean a masterpiece. Yes, in the genre (car chases), it is certainly way up there with the famous classics. But on the grand scheme of things, I don’t consider it movie of the year or anything like that.
I agree Death Proof was an excellent movie. Not just as a car chase but also as a slasher film. Its also freaking hilarious how kurt russell turns into a complete bitch at the end.
The people that thought it was the lamest movie ever should just stick to their michael bay movies.

You Sir! FAIL!!!
Death Proof shows what a proper car chase should be. None of that Fast and Furious rice burner crap. Sure there are some good ones cropping up every now and again, Ronin, the Bourne series, and few others. A few directors make use of new tecnology to enhance the explosions and can make some spectaculor crashes like in Deja Vu or The Island, but that’s just splash. Real car chases need to go old school.
Vanashing Point (1971) - the original not the shitty remake with Viggo Mortensen
Gone in 60 Seconds (1974)- the original not the shitty remake with the over hyped homo Nicky Cage
Bullitt (1968) - fortunately nobody’s had the balls to remake this one.
The JunkMan (1982)[/quote]
I thought it was a big let down, I watched it expecting to see alot of mindless violence and tits and didn’t see either. All it had was a car chase and if I’m gonna watch a movie I want to see more than that.
…a couple of points: saw Planet Terror yesterday and didn’t think it was that good, but it was pretty succesful at emulating late '70s and early '80s horrormovies, and it actually made me like Rose McGowan. Frankly, i judge movies on how i was entertained, and altough it’s fair to argue that ‘The last king of Scotland’ for instance was the better movie, i was more entertained by ‘Death Proof’ and as far as that goes, for me, it was the most entertaining movie i’ve seen this year…
I loved Planet Terror because I’m a zombie movie fanatic. Death proof was good and listenin’ to those stupid bitches talk about partyin’ and all that was cool, but I expected to see action earlier. All good tho. I rented them seperately so the only trailer I saw was Machete and that made me cream my panties. “They fucked with the wrong Mexican!” “Where’s my wife and daughter?”
Tarantino thinks he can do whatever the fuck he wants and people like Carl will mess their pants “cause the dialogue is so cool”. That movie was about 45 minutes too long (guess what 45 minutes…). Kurt Russell rocked the shit and the car chase was incredibly entertaining, but it was by no means more entertaining than Planet Terror.
Anyone arguing otherwise just wants you to think they are smarter than you.

yeah thats true… because good dialogue is so much easier to come by than violence and explosions
id guess id rather watch a bunch of explosions and hear the same tired old lines with the same tired out story… but wow like the explosions this time did u see the way it exploded it was like bAh ca bLAAMMM!!!
