DEATH PROOF WATCH ALONG!!

Comments

I think you missed Kurt Russell's look into the camera right before he opens his car door when he takes Rose McGowan for that ride. And also, in the same bar with Quentin, the dude in the red shirt is Eli Roth. And at the beginning, Butterfly had to take a piss when she arrived at Jungle Julia's house. Which is why she was walking that way.

And your explanation of what Quentin was going for with making a bad movie is why it was called Grindhouse and it was a double feature with Robert Rodriguez' Planet Terror. On the Grindhouse Blu-ray, it plays BOTH of the films together (Planet Terror first, then an intermission with some faux trailers, then Death Proof....and the cut of DP is 1 hour 27 minutes, and it EXCLUDES the lap dance scene.) Also, Planet Terror and Death Proof were sold in DVD separately in "Extended & Unrated" versions.

My Kris Kristofferson pick has gotta be Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore. Very early Scorsese. Ellen Burstyn won the best actress Oscar. It’s a treat to see how early on Scorsese had the goods. If you’re interested, I would go in as blind as you can.

Fun fact, in the scene where Kurt Russel is taking pictures of the second group of women, the music that plays is the main theme to the italian Giallo movie "The Bird with the Crustal Plumage".

Respectfully, the project isn't called Grindhouse because Quentin was trying to make a bad movie. Grindhouse is a reference to the types of theaters a double feature like the two movies in Grindhouse would play in. It's really that simple. He just happened to make a 'bad' movie in the process because sometimes he can't get out of the way of his own ego. He's spoken on it a number of times...he thinks Death Proof is a fantastic film and thinks it contains one of (if not the best) car chase scenes captured on film. I disagree on both points. Death Proof definitely has a cool setup, a number of really cool scenes, and Kurt Russell is absolutely 'killing it' as Stuntman Mike, but on a whole it just feels overly pretentious and cutesy and honestly, pretty boring at times. It's his only miss for me, and I wish I liked it more because what does work, really works. Sadly, I think Grindhouse as a project suffered by having Death Proof play second. It really sucks the energy out of what Planet Terror and the faux trailers bring to the table. Swap the features and I think the whole thing plays a lot better.

This is all great you guys, im really unfamiliar with these types of movies. I happen to agree too, like some elements were so so cool and amazingly well done, and well acted for the type of movie and I was still a little bored too. But overall glad to have it on the channel
