    Vincent's always on the toilet because he's a heroin addict. Opiates cause constipation. Opiate addicts also suffer from muscle twitches, which is why he shot Marvin in the face. His addiction is the cause of every problem he faces in the movie.

    Just thought I'd provide a little clarity on the situation where Butch shoots Vincent, because a lot of people get confused about why everything that happened, happened. Butch hitting Marcellus with his car isn't a coincidence. He didn't just happen to be down there and whoops, there's Butch. He and Vincent were at the apartment together, either searching it or staking it out in case Butch returned, which is why Marcellus is walking back to it carrying donuts and drinks. When Marcellus had gone out to get food for them he obviously couldn't carry that massive machine gun with him, so he left it behind on the counter. Vincent, being a heroine addict, has bowel problems, and went into the bathroom. He no doubt heard noises out in the apartment while he was in there, but figured it was just Marcellus having returned with their food. Instead he opens the door to find Butch pointing his boss's gun at him. Whoops.

    I think that in Butch's apartment we see the consequences for Vincent in rejecting the miracle. He works with Jules. Jules retired due to the miracle. This meant Vincent was watching the apartment with a new partner, Marcellus. When Vincent was in the bathroom, Marcellus went out for some snacks. That's the only reason Butch was able to walk out of that apartment. Marcellus doesn't know about Vincent's habits. He didn't know Vincent would spend a significant amount of time in the bathroom. Jules would have known and Jules would have been there when Butch showed up.

    30:00 - Think about it. If Marsellus dies, his posse will still spend the rest of their lives looking for Butch. In fact, both Vincent and Marsellus would have died today while waiting for Butch so it would be obvious that he was to blame. Saving Marsellus was both compassionate, and intelligent. It was the only real way to be completely free from pursuit.

    • @justmeeagainn
      @justmeeagainn Рік тому +3

      You're overthinking it. Even though Butch and Marcellus had a beef, now they had a common enemy and they were essentially allies. Nobody could leave another person in that situation no matter how they felt about them.

    • @83gemm
      @83gemm 10 місяців тому

      That’s all true, but I think if you read Butch’s expression when he decides to go back, he’s really only thinking that what Zed is doing is a whole other level of wrong. He and Marcellous have disrespected each other and are out to kill each other, but this isn’t right and has nothing to do with their disagreement.
      Plus… Butch isn’t much of a thinker. This plot to scam Marcellous is probably the most planning he’s done in his life and even it doesn’t require much deep thought.

    "Whose motorcycle is this?"
    "It's a chopper, baby."
    "Whose chopper is this?"
    "It's Zed's."
    "Who's Zed?"
    "Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead."
    Fun Fact: This was one of the first movies to use the Internet for advertising.
    Casting Notes Fact: Uma Thurman originally turned down the role of Mia Wallace. Quentin Tarantino was so desperate to have her as Mia, he ended up reading her the script over the phone, finally convincing her to take on the role.
    Highly Profitable Fact: The movie cost only $8 Million to make. The initial budget was reportedly even lower until Bruce Willis was added to the cast (he had a recent string of domestic flops but was still a box-office draw overseas). $5 Million went to pay the cast's salaries. The film was already profitable when its worldwide rights were sold for $11 Million (again, mainly on the strength of Bruce Willis' presence). It went on to gross over $200 Million at the box office.
    Automobile Enthusiast Fact: The 1964 Chevelle Malibu convertible driven by Vincent Vega (John Travolta) belonged to writer and director Quentin Tarantino and was stolen during production of the film. In 2013, a police officer saw two kids stripping an older car. He arrested them, and while looking up the owner of the vehicle he found the VIN had been altered. It turned out that it was Tarantino's stolen car. The owner had recently purchased it and had no idea it was stolen.
    The MacGuffin Fact: Speculation abounds as to the nature of the mysterious glowing contents of the case (which Tarantino said was simply a MacGuffin plot device). Some think it could be Elvis' gold suit, seen worn by Val Kilmer (as Elvis) in True Romance (1993). The most persistent theory is that it is Marcellus Wallace's soul. The story goes that when the Devil takes a person's soul, it is removed through the back of the head (though it should be noted that this part of devilish lore is found nowhere in the Bible). When we see the back of Marcellus' head he has a Band-Aid covering the precise spot indicated by tradition (supposedly) for soul removal. Perhaps Marcellus sold his soul to the devil which would also explain why the combination to open the briefcase is 666. Makes you think.

    Not many people notice the "666" on the suitcase lock, my favourite theory is that what is inside is Marsellus' soul. When we see him talking to Butch about the fight he has a band aid on his neck, that is traditionally the way people say the soul leaves the body. Vincent was always in the bathroom because heroine usually how to say, stops your bowel movements. Great reaction!!

    A lot of people wonder why Butch is in such a rush to get out of town when he leaves Wallace with Zed. If Wallace gave him a free pass to get out of town, why the rush? Some think that its because Wallace may change his mind, and would want to silence Butch, to keep that little incident hush hush. After thinking on it, it occurred to me that there is another very big reason that he needs to split real fast. The reason is this, Wallace doesn't yet know that Butch just gunned down his good friend Vincent. When Wallace discovers that, he will most definitely have the kill order back on.

    26:25 - A couple of things about this scene. First, I heard that heroin makes people constapated. This is why you see Vincent on the toilet throughout the movie. Secondly, Jules decided to "retire" (which you see at the last scene of the movie) - which is why Vincent was alone in Butch's house. If Jules didn't retire, it would have been the end for Butch.

      Actually Vincent was not alone. The gun that was on the counter was actually belonging to Marcellus who was walking back to the apartment with what looked like food and drinks for both of them when he ran into Butch in the car. That's why Vincent wasn't surprised or concerned when he was in the toilet and heard Butch in the kitchen because he figured it was Marcellus until he saw him of course.

    The breafcase its just a MacGuffin. Altough there are some of hypothesis about what it is (because its never said on the movie). Some people believe its meant to be Marcellius soul: The briefcase pass is 666, and in some religions its believed that the soul sits on the back of the neck (where he has a band-aid). Other people think that its whatever you desire most. I prefer the last one.

    My personal theory is that Marvin's death was a replacement for Vincent and Jules lives. It sort of balances the books, even though he was only one and they were two. (Probably for Jules, since Vincent is shot later on.) There's a lot of god and devil stuff in this movie; note the color the room changes when Brett is killed to the same color as the open briefcase glows. Is that the devil in the room?
    Don't know if any other commenters have mentioned this, but there's a theory that Mr. Pink, the non-tipper is now in this movie making his living as a waiter dependent on tips.

    Next up for Tarantino is 'Jackie Brown' that came out a few years later which I'm sure you'll enjoy. Samuel L Jackson said it's his favorite one. He also stars in it and does another excellent job. De Niro is in it as well.

    • @TTM9691
      @TTM9691 Рік тому +4

      Damn good movie. As if Samuel Jackson couldn't get any better than he was in "Pulp Fiction". What a performance. De Niro too, possibly my favorite supporting performance he's ever done (unless you count "Goodfellas" as a supporting role, which in a way it was). (He was great as Capone too. He's always great! lol) But he's so brilliantly understated in "Jackie Brown", it's almost an acting lesson. Absolutely "Jackie Brown".

    Some points of interest:
    - Mia’s story about the pilot she did and how she was supposed to tell a bad joke at the end of each episode is an Easter egg reference to Travolta’s early career starring in Welcome Back Kotter in which Kotter’s wife Julie would end each episode by telling a lame joke.
    - You’ll see women’s dirty feet scattered through several of Taranino’s movies as one of his trademarks.
    - I was disappointed you guys faulted Butch for double crossing Marcellus. This is a common movie mechanism in most boxing movies. A boxer finally gets his chance at the championship yet a gangster forces him to take a fall for a bit of money. If Butch declines he will be taken out at some point. It’s not a handshake deal of honor. Butch did the right thing in taking Marcellus’ money, betting on himself, winning the belt and running as the consequence would be the same as not taking the deal, death. Might as well grab the brass ring.
    Enjoy this rabbit hole as his movies are great, my favorites being the two you’ve already watched in addition to Jackie Brown, Django Unchained and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

    • @byrdmanteddie

      That's a fair point about butch. I think it was the cocky attitude that made us not like butch at first. Mainly in the phone booth talking about killing the other fighter. He did what he had to do to protect himself from marcellus tho looking back on it.

    I think you also should react to "True romance" from 1993. It was written by Tarantino but directed the same way as his. It has the same kind of dialogues and situations as Pulp fiction and the casting is stellar like you won't believe it :)
    And by the way, Travolta's character is Mr Blonde's brother ;)

    -The didn't win the contest. If you listen closely, when Butch is creeping by the apartment houses alley to get back to his, you hear a radio in the background that talks about Jackrabbit Slims and the trophy was stolen and the winners beaten up.
    -Tarantino has a foot fetish, sooooo, every movie he does, you'll see some women's feet...
    -Vincent got killed AFTER Jules retired. Marcellus was the other one there but left to go get food.
    -Heroin causes constipation. That's why Vincent always was in the bathroom...
    -In classic Tarantino style, it is shot out of order. It would be a crappy movie if the main characters all were gone by the end of the first act.
    -"I'm glad Marvin's ok...." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
    -The briefcase is just a McGuffin. It has no significance to the plot but to move it along..
    The book Vincent was reading in the crater was a "pulpy" novel called "Modesty Blaise" by Peter O'Donnell. A story like "Fox Force 5" features a female spy with many different talents. It was also made into a movie...

    I saw this in the theater the day it came out. Right after the scene young "Butch" getting the watch the film at the theater broke. Yes, they used real 35mm film back then. So anyways after about 15 minutes the movie starts back up and the next scene is of Butch at the apartment shooting Vincent. I was convinced that the projectionist had screwed up the film reels and put the last reel on instead of the third reel. I went the next day to the early showing and then realized how the timeline was set up. This movie should have won an Oscar, unfortunately the Academy went with the feel good "Forrest Gump" for best picture. I also think "Shawshank Redemption" from the same year was more worthy than "Forrest Gump". I do like "Gump", however I feel it's a bit to contrived.
