      Well said @llaauuddrruupp
      Whimsory sets the bar high. I appreciate her unique formula/format in creating her YT Reactions. It is so easy to watch her videos, among other things, she is consistent and entertaining which, for some of the many other YT Reactors, seems to be a challenge, even some of the 'good' YT Reactors, they can't match Whimsory's level of consistency & attention to detail nor her exceptional editing, background information and intelligent opinions.

    The reason Mia gets all messed up from the drugs is because she was snorting heroin (which is really dangerous to snort). She thought it was cocaine (which is fine to snort). She got confused because cocaine is usually packaged in little baggies while heroin is packaged in balloons or paper bags.
    Earlier in the movie the drug dealer says "I’m out of balloons. Is a baggie alright?"

      Snorting heroin is actually safer than IVing it (use to date a junkie), the reason she got messed up because she has no tolerance for opiates, whereas if Vincent snorted the same amount he'd be fine.

      Heroin is fine to snort, the problem is Mia thought it was coke as she uses coke regularly and has a tolerance to coke, she didn’t know it was heroin and didn’t have a tolerance to heroin and thus did her normal coke dose in heroine instead and OD’ed.

    This is one of the best reaction channels on UA-cam. Most reactors watch a movie, say some non-insightful stuff, and then say, "Yeah, I liked it." You do a deep, deep dive with multiple watches, research, and a deeply considered commentary. I wish they were all as good as you.

    As far as pay goes, keep in mind that both Willis and Travolta were in down periods in their careers at the time. This movie made them stars again. I think Butch went back because of the gold watch story he heard as a kid. That story taught him about honor. Walken's character even starts out saying something like 'When two men are held prisoner...". I don't think it's a coincidence that we hear that story then later Butch is taken prisoner with Marcellus. Butch had that opportunity to redeem himself and he took it. That's why he gets to ride off into the sunset sort of. The scene where Butch runs over Marcellus is definitely a nod to Psycho. BUT the pawn shop scene is a nod to a scene in the movie Deliverance. I can highly recommend that movie. Even if you never do a reaction video with it, it's worth seeing simply because it's such a good movie and it influenced a lot of other movies.

    42:07 "He could've left but couldn't do it" That's what makes the gold watch story even better, it isn't just a McGuffin like the suitcase, it gave Butch a moral background, he knew he had to help his enemy from those monsters. Plus what happened to him and Marcellus is in a way similar to what his father and Christopher Walken's character experienced

    Also trivia: it was in the oldies cafe sitting at tge "car table" where between scenes Uma Thurman and Quentin Tarrantino came up with Kill Bill, which they loosely reference her character b/c her pilot show is the rough draft concept for Kill Bill. 😁

    33:24 You're correct. The other coffee was for Vincent. Jules has just left the picture, so Marcellus was staking out Butch's place with Vincent and went to get them breakfast. Who knows, if they'd known Butch had toaster pastries in the cupboard, maybe Butch would be dead and Vincent would've survived.

    Hi! I just found your channel and love it! I thoroughly enjoy seeing people's reactions to movies for the first time!

  • @williamferguson5404
    @williamferguson5404 4 місяці тому +9

    FUN FACT: There are those that believe that Butch remained in the pawn shop to save Marcellus because he saw a subliminal message that compelled him to do so. As Butch is exiting the Pawn Shop, he grabs the keys to Zed's Chopper off the counter. The keys are attached to a key ring with a large "Z" attached. Immediately after this, Butch glances over his right shoulder as he walks to the door. Looking over his right shoulder, Butch's view includes, among many things, a neon sign that is sitting on one of the shelves. Now, while Butch obviously didn't study the neon sign, he would have been aware of it on a subliminal level. This neon sign is usually hung in bars to advertise a brand of the alcoholic beverage ale. The sign reads "Killian's Red." However, on this particular sign, the portion that reads "ian's ed" is burned out. This leaves a neon sign that reads "Kill ed." If you combine this neon sign with the key ring for the chopper, you get a message that says, "Kill Zed."
    "KILL ZED."
    I'm sure that this was intentional and not simply an accidentally message.

    • @PauloHernandezXD
      @PauloHernandezXD 4 місяці тому +6

      That sounds like a serious stretch.
      Butch isn’t evil, & knows it would be absolutely cruel to leave Marcellus to stay tortured. And in the end he leaves with his life & his personal honor.

    Chris Walken does another interesting character sketch in the movie True Romance, which is comparable to Pulp Fiction in many ways. It's also a Tarantino script, though he didn't direct it, and it has a great cast including memorable bits from Gary Oldman, Dennis Hopper, and James Gandolfini.

    Quentin Tarantino did another movie previous to this (Reservoir dogs).
    In that movie there is a character called Mr.Blonde.
    The actor who played Mr.Blonde was going to be the one to play Vincent Vega, meaning
    Vincent Vega was going to be Mr.Blonde. But the actor Michael Madsen passed the roll because he was
    in another project at the time. Instead the roll was given to John Travolta, and the new character
    was named Vincent, which is Mr.Blondes (Victor Vega) brother.

    Antoine Roccamora a half black/half Samoan organized crime figure known to some as Tony Rocky Horror. A character that doesn't even appear in this movie had been stuck in my head since I saw this in the theaters when it first came out, it's the little flairs of dialogue that make a QT script so fun to watch, i can't imagine anyone else would have come up with that name in a million passes at this script, but it is so evocative and makes perfect sense when you hear it that you can't help but think that it can only be the name of an actual person.

    That's the twist they're dancing - to dance the twist, you just twist like they did
    also, Mia's overdose is a mix of bad luck; mainly that what Vince carried was heroin, which is uuusually brown and sort of unappealing looking, unlesss it is unusually pure, then it will be white - but this is fairly rare, so when Mia looks at it - she sees what looks exactly like cocaine, which is what rich-people love to sniffle up their nose. Basically, she introcudes a top quality, super-dose of an extremely potent drug she has no exprience with, right up her nose, and overdoses immediately.
