Only after watching this a few times do you understand just how incompetent Vincent is. Unnecessary starts beef with Butch which (likely) leads to his car getting keyed. Leaves his stash out leading to Mia’s overdose. Kills Marvin by accident. Escalates the diner robbery when Jules had it under control. Has the audacity to ask the wolf to say please when he’s doing them a HUGE favor. And somehow lets his target turn the tables on him, leading to his own death and his boss’s torture. A lot of this gets overlooked bc John travolta just looks cool while he’s screwing up
I think a little different about the Wolf scene where I think Vincent speaks for the audience. But otherwise indeed the idea seems to be he had it coming.
You right my man, that Vitamin H addict fucked a lot of his OWN life up by being a SOULES STUPID killer for hire, back from holland as a worthless junkee
Vincent leaving his MAC10 on the kitchen counter while he went to take a dump was something Jules would have quickly picked up on and corrected. Without Jules to look after him, Vincent's sloppiness got him killed.
If Butch had just left instead of making himself pop-tarts, he never would have run into Marcellus on the road at exactly the right time lol this movie is too funny
It’s kinda a theme in this film that all the major events are coincidences (or maybe miracles if you take Jules’ perspective). The watch gets forgotten, all the shots that guy shoots at the hitmen miss, Vincent shoots Marvin in the face, pumpkin and honey bunny happen to pick the one dinner where there are two hitmen etc.
It's not a beautiful shot. It has many issues. Especially the weird cut to him entering the apartment area. It's simply that long shots add tension and should be used more in movies.
More of an appropriate use of music, rather than a lack of, IMO... Butch singing along to the Statler Brothers after killing Vincent...Mr Blonde, dancing/singing along to Stuck in the Middle With You while torturing the cop, the flashback and travel scenes in Kill Bill with their accompanying musical scores...etc...
Music is a stylistic choice used to emphasize what’s on screen and what the storyteller wants you to feel. Personally I think music should be in a movie to more or less guide to the audience by means of audiovisual storytelling. Music in a scene can replace the need for words or emphasize them. Lack of music in a scene ironically can do the same thing.
Yeah he was pretty careless throughout the film but we also got to keep in mind that this was like his first week back on the job after several years over in Europe living the good life. I tend to think he was more cautious and better at his job before that or else I don't think he would've made it up as highly as he did with Wallace.
@@conorcane1211 On top of that his negligence with his heroin almost got Mia Wallace killed. Granted he may have not known she was a coke head nor expected her to go through his coat but it's pretty careless to leave that amount of heroin in your jacket, particularly in just a baggy and not a balloon which is what I guess folks usually keep heroine in.(I wouldn't know for sure but the fact Lance specifically tells him he is out of balloons and asks if a baggy is ok leads me to believe that)
@@shavturtle1213 I think you're right. In paying attention, I think it's clearly Foley work and stock sounds. Still impressive for the cameraman, though.
These sorts of shots often aren't as technically impressive as they look. It is more than likely the camera is handed off to an operator through the fence, who emerges from frame left as the camera moves in, and is concealed with the towels directly before the hand off, hence the very noticeable pan to the left as the camera is "handed off" and the new operator is now framing. A little practice, and still super impressive, but a more likely explanation.
I like how Vincent carelessness finally catches up to him. He could hear Butch loud and clear but he mistook him for Jules and got served two slices of toast with a mac-10.
And shit always go down whenever he uses the head (pun intended). The diner robbery, Mia’s OD and now this. He shouldn’t have been shooting up all that heroin.
It’s crazy how careless Vincent was here. He literally thought he could not be killed and not be taken off guard but that gets him killed by his own weapon.
He’s a clown that doesn’t have proper firearm training. You’d think Marcellus Wallace would make sure his firearm handling employees have at least that.
The gun actually belonged to Marcellus, who set it down to go and get donuts. But it still applies in that Vincent didn't think to keep it close in case Butch came back whilst he was taking a shit.
He never actually expected him to be dumb enough to come back home. He'd have to be a complete IDIOT. Unfortunately for Vincent, he was an idiot for coming home. And Vincent had his gaurd down.. It also wasn't Vincents gun
@@J_C_CH I think it’s a combination of things. Remember, this all starts after Jules and Vincent missed being killed in the apartment. Jules acknowledged that God spared their lives and gave up the life. Vincent on the other hand refused to believe. So after this, death followed Vincent, and blood stayed on his hands. The first proof is the gun mysteriously going off and killing Marvin. The towel. Same soap, same towel. No blood when Jules used it; his sins are washed away.. but it was still bloody after Vincent. Then he almost starts a shootout in the restaurant, but it takes Jules’ calmness and change of heart to de-escalate the situation. So when Jules leaves him when he returns the briefcase to Marcellous, his problems begin. Gets into it with Butch-his eventual killer.. basically kills Marcellous’ wife-but it takes his DRUG DEALER-not Vincent, to bring her back. Something his dealer never had to do. And then the minute he finally sits his weapon/protection down, death catches him. How? By the toaster saying his time is up and he’s toast.
What I love about this scene is how it's basically a continuation of where Butch and Vincent left off. They met once before and they immediately hated each other. Now they see each other again and Butch has the same expression of contempt he had the first time they met.
And going through those empty lots to get to where you're going really quickly. That's as real as it got down there. You find a LOT of shortcuts if you actually look.
I remember renting books from the public library.. You'd get to the 230 page or something and notice brown smudges on the pages ...now I know why..pretty shitty
And to think that his watch getting left behind caused this entire chain sequence of events, with this and then running into Marcellus on the street, and then the pawn shop segment. Sort of a miraculous blessing in disguise.
It also sorta mirrors the gold watch being a cursed object and all the hell Butch's relatives went through with the watch in World War 1& 2 and Vietnam
There's a good conspiracy theory that Marcellus was with Vince in Butch's apartment but decided to go out and get coffee and donuts. Its his gun that Butch picks up and its the reason why Vince was surprised to see Butch when he exits the bathroom. He thought Marcellus had come back.
First rule of being a boss - don't have a dog and bark yourself. Would Marcellus really have been waiting in butch's apartment just to see if he would turn up ? That's what his manpower is for.
@@scudger99 Marcellus made it pretty clear that he took this situation personally. I believe he definitely would have come along to handle this himself.
I love how Marcellus and Vince wear suits like they’re on official business. All the while one guy is taking a shit without a care in the world and the other is going to get coffee and donuts like they’re about to watch Sunday football. Really well-executed steak out, boys.
i know it happened , but how often would butch be coming back anyway ? they didnt know about the watch. why would they think he would come back ? should have been at the bus stations or airports
@@bensawesomemixchannel7220 fair point, slightly unrealistic I agree. Safe to assume Marcellus definitely had some of his guys at all locations including the airport. I think it’s fair that they’d keep an eye on his place too, but not sure they’d realistically be camping out there long enough to have coffee and donuts, especially the boss and one of his top guys. They must’ve assumed butch would’ve skipped town but maybe they were looking for some clues as to where he went? Either way, agreed it’s a little far fetched. Just the price we pay for entertaining cinema I guess.
My takeaway from this scene is that generic brand pop tarts compensate for the lower price by only covering about 5/8 of the surface with icing. Kellogg pop tarts are spendier, but you get more icing and an elevated toaster pastry experience.
I always thought it was more simple. Vincent figured Butch wasn't coming back and got careless. He just as well thought it was another apartment door closing, if he was even paying attention. But I can see it makes more sense why Marcellus was carrying the donuts and 'happened' to be in the same area (instead of sheer coincidence). It's amazing how great movies can still generate so much conversation, decades later!
There's no way Vincent didn't hear all the sounds Butch made, especially when he entered the kitchen and opened the cupboard. The only explanation I can think of is that Marcellus came with Vincent to punish Butch personally.
@Kicked in the calf by a cow the obvious answer. Guy's a junkie, not surprising. Plus he was reading so he was already distracted. Hell dude mightve even been nodding
You guys are way over thinking it, he thought it was the boss coming back with lunch. He was literally in the next scene walking back to the apartment, they were both staked out there.
Yeah in my head cannon is that it is Marcellus's Mac 10 on the kitchen counter. He went out to get some donuts after not finding good food in the kitchen. Vincent was in the bathroom the whole time Marcellus went out. Vincent uses a 1911A1 pistol.
What almost no-one knows about this scene is that the reason he was using the bathroom during such a bad time is because of his heroin use. Opioids, especially really strong ones, slow down your bowel movement. It's a pretty significant issue actually. So in this scene he didn't just die in a stupid way, he died like it because of his drug use, this is some really clever writing, epsecially form a religious / spiritual standpoint.
@@KD--sj8eobro the movie ENDS with a bible passage, if you don't want to hear about religion I hate to tell you but Pulp Fiction is not the movie to avoid that topic
@@chefpyroisin Just because there's a religious character goes on rants about religious superstition, doesn't mean we want to hear someone start making every detail about the movie, religious, when it's not. Vincent wouldn't have died if Jules was still around instead of going around like a bum based on superstitious coincidence.
@@FU-PoliticalHumor that's hilarious that you started that comment describing how Jules main role in the movie is how he had a coming to God moment and wants to change how he lives his life, then proceeded to describe how it totally doesn't matter how Jules had a coming to God moment and insulted what he chose to do with himself just like Vincent, and ignores how the movie makes a point of how ignoring signs to do something with your life leads to you going down the path that's been clearly layed out for you (in Vincent's case getting killed on the job) I'm not religious, I don't believe in God, but the movie literally has a plot point about a character coming to God and how his belief in God allowed him to change his life for the better. Religious discussion is inherent to the movie and shouldn't be dismissed and ignored because a bunch of r/atheist rejects want to pretend that a good movie doesn't include religious themes
@@map3384 exactly this surviving the hand cannon and the bonnie situation were both pretty much pure luck, and jules realized he was pushing it too much already vincent was either too cocky or too stoned to realize how lucky he really was to get out of that unscathed
@@mallrat7926 Absolutely. Jules realized fate has its own way. They survived two fucked up situations. Third time could be the charm on him. Walking away was smart. Vincent was cocky and unreasonable. He bought it in the end.
Another camera operator is just out of shot screen left, the washing will obscure him/her as the camera approaches the hole in fence and is passed through to the 2nd operator. That's how I'd set it up anyway.
This scene confused me the first time I watched the movie. It was my first introduction to a Quintin Tarantino movie and I didn’t realize the story was being told in a non linear storyline. When I saw Vincent reappear in a later scene, I was like “Wait a minute, didn’t Vincent get shot a couple of scenes ago? He healed up pretty damn well …”.
that's the good thing about his and other good movies. they don't spoonfeed you. maybe you didnt get it at first view which means you can view it again and still have fun. weren't old movies great?
@@hazardeur yeah this really confused me the first time i watched it at 13, because i heard a lot of people calling it the best movie ever and upon watching it i kind of just felt uninformed of the storyline, watching it again i realized what was happening and actually got to enjoy it, still wouldn’t call it the best movie i’ve ever seen but better than the first viewing nonetheless
I don't know why, but I've always loved how the smoke from the MAC-10 sets off the fire alarm. Probably because you don't really get that detail in films that often. Guns produce smoke, and firing one in a small building like an apartment is bound to set one off.
I suspect that the MAC-10 Supressor which was supposed to be one of the best held back a huge amount of smoke and then let it out all at once. Which sets off the alarm.
What I love about this scene is that it's pretty much the last time I've seen a poor US neighborhood be showed so matter-of-factly. You gotta love QT for that.
@@hazardeur lmfao other groups having representation really got you in your feelings huh? Imagine accurate cinema pissing people off because it's not what they're used to. Get the fuck over it and try to enjoy things outside of the box you live in. You'll enjoy life a lot more big dawg.
Human nature. It was too big to notice. Sounds funny but true. You look for the tiny little details you're afraid you might miss and overlook the gorilla staring you in the face.
He blinked! I never noticed before. The nervous tension build-up like watching a balloon pop as someone slowly taunts with a needle, or threatens to throw something in your face.
This scene and movie really showcases the brilliance of Tarantino and some of the cinema at the time. A combination of realism, aesthetic, and unpolished yet complimentary grit, acted by legends in their prime and directed by an extremely talented and enthusiastic cinephile.
god Tarantino is such a genius he completely nails that trashy doped-up aesthetic of crime in the 90's with the LA apartments with wood furniture, Butch skinhead look, the off-brand pop-tarts and that blocky mac 10 with the cylindrical cartoon-ish sionics silencer. Of course the movie was made in the 90's so accurate for its time but still it looks badass.
Vincent acted like he wasn't a hitman casually using his targets bathroom waiting for him to return reading a book doing so leaving a gun away from him in plain sight
That wasn't Vincent's gun - that belonged to Marcellus Wallace. He wanted to personally take care of Butch. That's why Vincent didn't react when he heard the door open - he thought it was just Marcellus coming back with food and drinks.
@@Busrayne If M & V were at the apartment waiting to see if B would appear ....very careless for M to go out , V to go to the loo whilst leaving the gun in the kitchen . Sloppy ! They must have thought there was a possibility B would show ... ( I just assumed V was very careless with his firearm management ...)
@@Simpleburger1968 I think it was just desperation. They thought Butch was long gone, but they had to do _something_ and they had no other alternative than to stake out his place because they had no other leads. Vincent was shocked to see him there as was Marcellus on the crosswalk when he drove up in his GF's car leaving the place.
Vincent forgot one cardinal rule: Never leave your weapon on the kitchen counter. Take it with you at all times, you never know who's gonna show up. Even if you have to use the can.
Yeah, had my AR more then 1,25 m away from me in basic training at one point, and got noticed by the instructors :). Had the AR attached to my wrist with a 1,25 cord for a week...
The Surprised look on Vincent’s face though. He probably thought it was Marcellus returning with breakfast, only to see it was Butch. One shitty morning.
I often eat pop tarts without toasting them. This was definitely a situation where Butch should have counted his blessings and just took the damn pop tarts with him!
@@johncaccamo this is blasphemy, its called a toaster pastry for a reason.... you must go to the kitchen immediately and rectify the situation but be on the lookout for sub-machine guns lying around!
To me, it seems Tarantino is using the domino effect to make this situation so damn funny. He's running back to get his father's watch, which he considers a priceless family heirloom. He gets hungry and just has to have a snack. If he hadn't stopped for a snack, he wouldn't have run into Marsellus and ran him over.
The movie is so brilliantly written that you dont even realize the fine details about the scenes the first time around, but if you think about what happens afterwards it clears so much in this scene.. Butch wasn't so silent that Vincent couldn't have heard him, but probably Vince and Marcellus were waiting in the flat since the night so Vince's defend was down, and expected the noises to be Marcellus arriving "home" with the donuts and coffee. The first time i was watching i didnt really understand what the fuck Marcellus did in the city so unexpectedly, i didnt realize the driving off scene was instantly after getting out of the flat. The movie is so subtle about all these details, and it is so amazing to see a movie that doesnt explain every shit to the viewer through dialoge.
really? I didn't care for travolta in this. He was a little... I dunno... too kitchey maybe. In a film that was so perfectly cast, he was the weak link for me.
In the early aughts, this movie was *the* 'cool kid' movie. Anytime I'd go over to a gathering with more than four people, this movie was on. I caught four minutes of this movie at a time, never actually watching it all the way through - but so frequently was it on the TVs of others that I saw this movie dozens of times. These clips hit in a really nostalgic way for me - it's literally the way I watched the movie. lol
No, he thought it was Marsellus Wallace coming back with the food. They probably went there together to kill Butch. In fact in the following scene, when Butch leaves his old apartment, who does he run into, at a pedestrian crossing? Marcellus Wallace, coming back with the food (and runs him over 😅).
I just recently caught on that nobody will really know how Vincent died. His death will turn to speculation and rumor just like how Vincent was wondering about the other henchman. The original conspiracy that the henchman's death was connected to his affiliation with Mia could be reinforced with Vincent's death, as Vincent and Mia were together the night before Vincent got shot.
Clothes, acting, carachters, places, the city.. everything is an inspiration for future movies and videogames, thats makes this movie a truly masterpiece, the point when carachters meet each other without know if even exist is another great detail that no other movie did
0:15 watched this movie so many times and only now realizing the little mention of Jack Rabbit Slim’s. Man I love this movie the more and more I watch it.
@@noahlinden9641 Well, some big cities still deal with a couple homeless people, that'll probably never change. LA though? I went there at the start of 2020 on vacation and it was terrible.
I had a buddy who hated John Travolta until he saw Pulp Fiction...after that it's like a light switch turned on in his head!! Quintin's movies do that to people...opens their eyes and mind to things that were always there!
“Looking good, Butch” after scanning the kitchen and overlooking the huge Mac with 32 rounds in 2 seconds with a suppressor on his counter and grabbing a pop tart instead😂 gotta love it.
Constipation, especially opioid constipation, means you go to the bathroom LESS frequently. You shit like once a week. I’m a nurse as well as a recovered opioid addict so I’ve seen my fair share of users with gastrointestinal issues
Seeing that shit box apartment complex reminded me of all the shit box apartment complexes I’ve lived in over the years… Thank God those days are behind me…
The point you all missed that QT left for us to decide.Butch believed that his watch brings him luck.And as soon as he gets his watch.BANG! Now either the watch itself is good luck for Butch or it's the fact that he BELIEVES it to be good luck that makes it what it is.
I love the fact that Butch is smart enough to wipe down the gun after he's finished, but he doesn't wipe down the toaster or the bathroom door (And we can clearly see him touch the door with his fingertips at about 3:50)
@@snabel4393 Hang on, so he'll wipe the handle of the entrance door to show he never went in to begin with, but won't do the door that's covered in blood?

Ikr! He just touches the blood as he opens the door, making it so easy to lead the murder back to him. It's one thing to have some gangsters looking for you, but it's another thing to have the US Marshalls xD
@@aturn124 most people running for their life who just murdered somebody aren’t in their right mind. And again, it’s his place. His fingerprints are already everywhere. You gumshoes watch too much law and order
Notice how the last shot before the kitchen shots show a racecar on the shelf. That's Tarantino's way of saying "Vincent is here". Earlier in the movie Vincent is wearing a speed racer shirt, and also compares himself to a racecar in another conversation.
Vincent is so hilariously incompetent that you have to question why the other characters even bring him along. Every problem in the movie is due to him fucking up somehow. He doesn't clear the apartment, allowing Hand Cannon Guy to get the drop on them. He blows Marvin's brains out and then is a dick to The Wolfe about it. He leaves his drugs lying around for Mia to OD on. He calls his dealer on a cellular phone. He almost turns the Diner Robbery into a bloodbath. And then he lets Butch get the drop on him. What an idiot.
3:04. I have that exact blender in my kitchen. I've had it for about 35 years and it works great. Mine has one extra feature. It has a knob just above the push buttons with Hi/Low speed so all these differant speed button you can use high and low. Stuff that I notice.

This scene where he's cutting through the neighborhoods and going into the apartment just felt so real....the camera work here is PHENOMENAL
And going through those empty lots to get to where you're going really quickly. That's as real as it got down there. You find a LOT of shortcuts if you actually look.
Clearly, self-preservation is an instinct Vince didn't possess.
Nice one
Smack will do that to you
Supposedly Marcellus was also waiting in the apt. with him, though he appears to be walking the wrong way when Bruce ran him over
"I'm a fukin' grease spot."

What book was it? I couldn't make out the title.

I remember renting books from the public library.. You'd get to the 230 page or something and notice brown smudges on the pages ...now I know why..pretty shitty
This scene feels like going home on your lunch break.
😂
You should be a writer. Seriously. Too funny!
Anyone within 200 feet : " Were those gun shots?" Short, controlled bursts people.
holy fuck that is weirdly accurate
And to think that his watch getting left behind caused this entire chain sequence of events, with this and then running into Marcellus on the street, and then the pawn shop segment. Sort of a miraculous blessing in disguise.
It also sorta mirrors the gold watch being a cursed object and all the hell Butch's relatives went through with the watch in World War 1& 2 and Vietnam
At least he didn't get chosen. Instead it was Marcellus.
His whimsical wife was unreliable. She was careless in a world where utmost care was needed.
@@jdgustofwinddance.7748 True, but in the end her lone act of carelessness wound up workin to their advantage so I think all is forgiven
@@TreWimsical I wonder if Butch would be so forgiving if it was he in Wallace’s _awkward_ position.
There's a good conspiracy theory that Marcellus was with Vince in Butch's apartment but decided to go out and get coffee and donuts. Its his gun that Butch picks up and its the reason why Vince was surprised to see Butch when he exits the bathroom. He thought Marcellus had come back.
That’s not a conspiracy. That’s truth
and why he dont go out with butch walking everywhere and making noise, that would make sense
Yeah that's not a theory, thats what actually happened.
First rule of being a boss - don't have a dog and bark yourself. Would Marcellus really have been waiting in butch's apartment just to see if he would turn up ?
That's what his manpower is for.
@@scudger99 Marcellus made it pretty clear that he took this situation personally. I believe he definitely would have come along to handle this himself.
I love how Marcellus and Vince wear suits like they’re on official business. All the while one guy is taking a shit without a care in the world and the other is going to get coffee and donuts like they’re about to watch Sunday football. Really well-executed steak out, boys.
A well excuted steak out means not dropping it on the floor while walking away from the grill...
Stake out...sorry
i know it happened , but how often would butch be coming back anyway ? they didnt know about the watch. why would they think he would come back ? should have been at the bus stations or airports
@@bensawesomemixchannel7220 fair point, slightly unrealistic I agree. Safe to assume Marcellus definitely had some of his guys at all locations including the airport. I think it’s fair that they’d keep an eye on his place too, but not sure they’d realistically be camping out there long enough to have coffee and donuts, especially the boss and one of his top guys. They must’ve assumed butch would’ve skipped town but maybe they were looking for some clues as to where he went?
Either way, agreed it’s a little far fetched. Just the price we pay for entertaining cinema I guess.
Steak out
vincent was on offal business.
My takeaway from this scene is that generic brand pop tarts compensate for the lower price by only covering about 5/8 of the surface with icing. Kellogg pop tarts are spendier, but you get more icing and an elevated toaster pastry experience.
This guy tarts.
Well known facts, but definitely worth point out regardless.
but even the expensive ones have cut back on the filling...leaving larger crust edges...
pop tarts are for plebians toasters strudel is for master race
An excellent takeaway. Addtionally, a better model of toaster would likely heat the Pop Tarts more evenly adding to the toaster pastry experience.
I always thought it was more simple. Vincent figured Butch wasn't coming back and got careless. He just as well thought it was another apartment door closing, if he was even paying attention. But I can see it makes more sense why Marcellus was carrying the donuts and 'happened' to be in the same area (instead of sheer coincidence). It's amazing how great movies can still generate so much conversation, decades later!
There's no way Vincent didn't hear all the sounds Butch made, especially when he entered the kitchen and opened the cupboard. The only explanation I can think of is that Marcellus came with Vincent to punish Butch personally.
Heroin can dull the senses
@Kicked in the calf by a cow the obvious answer. Guy's a junkie, not surprising. Plus he was reading so he was already distracted. Hell dude mightve even been nodding
You guys are way over thinking it, he thought it was the boss coming back with lunch. He was literally in the next scene walking back to the apartment, they were both staked out there.
Yeah in my head cannon is that it is Marcellus's Mac 10 on the kitchen counter. He went out to get some donuts after not finding good food in the kitchen. Vincent was in the bathroom the whole time Marcellus went out. Vincent uses a 1911A1 pistol.
What almost no-one knows about this scene is that the reason he was using the bathroom during such a bad time is because of his heroin use. Opioids, especially really strong ones, slow down your bowel movement. It's a pretty significant issue actually. So in this scene he didn't just die in a stupid way, he died like it because of his drug use, this is some really clever writing, epsecially form a religious / spiritual standpoint.
Don’t bring in that religious crap 🤦🏼♂️
@@KD--sj8eobro the movie ENDS with a bible passage, if you don't want to hear about religion I hate to tell you but Pulp Fiction is not the movie to avoid that topic
@@KD--sj8eo Looks like someone has a personal vendetta against Religion, and for that I’ll say seek Jesus Mothafucka
@@chefpyroisin Just because there's a religious character goes on rants about religious superstition, doesn't mean we want to hear someone start making every detail about the movie, religious, when it's not. Vincent wouldn't have died if Jules was still around instead of going around like a bum based on superstitious coincidence.
@@FU-PoliticalHumor that's hilarious that you started that comment describing how Jules main role in the movie is how he had a coming to God moment and wants to change how he lives his life, then proceeded to describe how it totally doesn't matter how Jules had a coming to God moment and insulted what he chose to do with himself just like Vincent, and ignores how the movie makes a point of how ignoring signs to do something with your life leads to you going down the path that's been clearly layed out for you (in Vincent's case getting killed on the job)
I'm not religious, I don't believe in God, but the movie literally has a plot point about a character coming to God and how his belief in God allowed him to change his life for the better. Religious discussion is inherent to the movie and shouldn't be dismissed and ignored because a bunch of r/atheist rejects want to pretend that a good movie doesn't include religious themes
I love how opening a door, without breaking it, can still stir up a suspenseful moment.
If I walked through the 'hood like that in Momma jeans I'd get jumped which meant Vince would have never gotten paid.
I always thought they showed carelessness the entire movie and this just showed how it bites you in the ass in the end.
Junkie Hitmen are notoriously unreliable.
Carless of butch to stick around also but he ended up surviving anyways
Jules knew it was over after surviving the hand cannon. Vincent didn’t. A true back up man would have killed then both.
@@map3384 exactly this
surviving the hand cannon and the bonnie situation were both pretty much pure luck, and jules realized he was pushing it too much already
vincent was either too cocky or too stoned to realize how lucky he really was to get out of that unscathed
@@mallrat7926 Absolutely. Jules realized fate has its own way. They survived two fucked up situations. Third time could be the charm on him. Walking away was smart. Vincent was cocky and unreasonable. He bought it in the end.
The smoke alarm basically being Butch’s heart rate after something like that happening is perfect
Never thought of that. Excellent analysis!
This is my favourite bit of camera work. How the camera follows him through the fence without stutter or movement is AMAZING
I feel vindicated. I’m not the only one who noticed .
@@T1971-w4c dose it? To hing up and out of do you mean top right hand side?
Another camera operator is just out of shot screen left, the washing will obscure him/her as the camera approaches the hole in fence and is passed through to the 2nd operator. That's how I'd set it up anyway.
The camera work that makes this scene for me is the slow close-up of the weapon on the counter.
This scene confused me the first time I watched the movie. It was my first introduction to a Quintin Tarantino movie and I didn’t realize the story was being told in a non linear storyline. When I saw Vincent reappear in a later scene, I was like “Wait a minute, didn’t Vincent get shot a couple of scenes ago? He healed up pretty damn well …”.
that's the good thing about his and other good movies. they don't spoonfeed you. maybe you didnt get it at first view which means you can view it again and still have fun. weren't old movies great?
@@hazardeur yeah this really confused me the first time i watched it at 13, because i heard a lot of people calling it the best movie ever and upon watching it i kind of just felt uninformed of the storyline, watching it again i realized what was happening and actually got to enjoy it, still wouldn’t call it the best movie i’ve ever seen but better than the first viewing nonetheless
@@maurice7002 it’s is best movie. Watch it
😭
@@maurice7002 it gets better with each watch imo
I don't know why, but I've always loved how the smoke from the MAC-10 sets off the fire alarm. Probably because you don't really get that detail in films that often. Guns produce smoke, and firing one in a small building like an apartment is bound to set one off.
I suspect that the MAC-10 Supressor which was supposed to be one of the best held back a huge amount of smoke and then let it out all at once. Which sets off the alarm.
What I love about this scene is that it's pretty much the last time I've seen a poor US neighborhood be showed so matter-of-factly.
You gotta love QT for that.
No gender or race lecture either. Great films will return but not for another decade.

How did butch not see that when he walked into the kitchen? He literally looked around the entire place 😂
Guess he was too busy looking for actually guys... and poptarts.
You see what you expect to see.
That actually happened to me in real life, repeatedly
Seriously! That's what im asking. You stood in the doorway and looked around Butch. How did you not see the gun there?
Human nature. It was too big to notice. Sounds funny but true. You look for the tiny little details you're afraid you might miss and overlook the gorilla staring you in the face.

i'll never forget the look on Bruce Willis's face as he shoots.
His face when he realizes its the same asshole from the bar.

He should've used his shooting kissing face when he shot Vincent 🤣
@Cynical Frenchface ouch
He blinked! I never noticed before. The nervous tension build-up like watching a balloon pop as someone slowly taunts with a needle, or threatens to throw something in your face.
This scene and movie really showcases the brilliance of Tarantino and some of the cinema at the time. A combination of realism, aesthetic, and unpolished yet complimentary grit, acted by legends in their prime and directed by an extremely talented and enthusiastic cinephile.
I could watch clips of Pulp Fiction
every day an not be bored... its
the greatest movie of all time
Travoltas yell was priceless😂😂😂😂😂
“WAHAA!”
He was gonna yell in pain by being shot by a suppressed Uzi 9mm,but it's high rate of fire killed him in a split second.
I think Vincent thought it was Marcellus returning with coffee and donuts and didn't think much of it.
Though it might have been Butch (who they were anticipating ) ...and indeed was !
Vincent was waiting for donuts while making them in Butch’s bowl
I’ve always liked that look Vincent gives when he sees Butch standing there with the gun. That’s a man who knows he’s done.
'well damn, maybe I shouldn't have been talking shit to this guy for no reason a few days ago. . .'
I like how the camera passes through that fence.
And without a sound, very smoothly filmed and edited.
Smooth.

The Butch saga is the only part of PF I watch anymore. Love the Statler Brothers music in the car before he spots Marcellus.
There's a great running gag in this flick with Vincent always going to the can when things wind up going sideways for him in the next room.
Opioid addiction causes constipation.
Side effect of opioid use. Clever detail
god Tarantino is such a genius he completely nails that trashy doped-up aesthetic of crime in the 90's with the LA apartments with wood furniture, Butch skinhead look, the off-brand pop-tarts and that blocky mac 10 with the cylindrical cartoon-ish sionics silencer. Of course the movie was made in the 90's so accurate for its time but still it looks badass.
You think it's genius only because you don't know his sources. For the aesthetic he copied the movie Straight Time.
@@festo512 who ever made straight time is a GENIOUS!
@@dinnertime3709 I'm sure they did the same just copied other crime films
Vincent acted like he wasn't a hitman casually using his targets bathroom waiting for him to return reading a book doing so leaving a gun away from him in plain sight
I’m sure he thought butch was long gone out of town
That wasn't Vincent's gun - that belonged to Marcellus Wallace. He wanted to personally take care of Butch. That's why Vincent didn't react when he heard the door open - he thought it was just Marcellus coming back with food and drinks.
This is the same guy who accidentally shot their informant in the head and damn near got the boss man's lady to OD.
@@Busrayne If M & V were at the apartment waiting to see if B would appear ....very careless for M to go out , V to go to the loo whilst leaving the gun in the kitchen . Sloppy ! They must have thought there was a possibility B would show ... ( I just assumed V was very careless with his firearm management ...)
@@Simpleburger1968 I think it was just desperation. They thought Butch was long gone, but they had to do _something_ and they had no other alternative than to stake out his place because they had no other leads. Vincent was shocked to see him there as was Marcellus on the crosswalk when he drove up in his GF's car leaving the place.
Vincent forgot one cardinal rule: Never leave your weapon on the kitchen counter. Take it with you at all times, you never know who's gonna show up. Even if you have to use the can.
I’ll keep that in mind.
It might’ve been Marcellus’ though
They teach you that in the military. Vincent would've been in the front leaning rest position until further notice..
No, the one rule is, to always use the restroom before you go to the place to do the hit. :p
Yeah, had my AR more then 1,25 m away from me in basic training at one point, and got noticed by the instructors :). Had the AR attached to my wrist with a 1,25 cord for a week...
The sound design from beginning to end in this sequence is brilliant
monkey sound design is something else
The ULTIMATE “Deer In The Headlights” Look!!! Bet at that moment, Vincent realized that he hadn’t quite finish his sit down business!!!
Confucius says "always take your gun with you when you go to the toilet."
The gun belonged to Marcellus - he couldn't exactly take it with him when he walked to get breakfast.
The Surprised look on Vincent’s face though. He probably thought it was Marcellus returning with breakfast, only to see it was Butch. One shitty morning.
did they have guns back then???
Always
Confucius say man who poo in other man's home, sure to stink up the joint, light match or firing pin of gun to rid stench...
As good as this scene is, the one following where Butch bumps into Marcellus Wallace is just pure cinematic gold!
I often eat pop tarts without toasting them. This was definitely a situation where Butch should have counted his blessings and just took the damn pop tarts with him!
username checks out
Butch was destined to die. Pulp Fiction is about redemption.
Never toasted a pop tart in my life…
@@johncaccamo this is blasphemy, its called a toaster pastry for a reason.... you must go to the kitchen immediately and rectify the situation but be on the lookout for sub-machine guns lying around!
To me, it seems Tarantino is using the domino effect to make this situation so damn funny. He's running back to get his father's watch, which he considers a priceless family heirloom. He gets hungry and just has to have a snack. If he hadn't stopped for a snack, he wouldn't have run into Marsellus and ran him over.
Only this time I realized he's leaving all the boxing medals and even photos behind. Really starting a new life..
A new life with his daddy’s dirty butthole watch.
Funny that Vincent was reading a pulp fiction novel in the bathroom.
The movie is so brilliantly written that you dont even realize the fine details about the scenes the first time around, but if you think about what happens afterwards it clears so much in this scene.. Butch wasn't so silent that Vincent couldn't have heard him, but probably Vince and Marcellus were waiting in the flat since the night so Vince's defend was down, and expected the noises to be Marcellus arriving "home" with the donuts and coffee. The first time i was watching i didnt really understand what the fuck Marcellus did in the city so unexpectedly, i didnt realize the driving off scene was instantly after getting out of the flat. The movie is so subtle about all these details, and it is so amazing to see a movie that doesnt explain every shit to the viewer through dialoge.
Really pissed me off how careless Vincent was.. he was my favorite character for a long time. That dance scene was so iconic
really? I didn't care for travolta in this. He was a little... I dunno... too kitchey maybe.
In a film that was so perfectly cast, he was the weak link for me.
@@edwardgiovannelli5191 that's your opinion. The dance competition scene alone made him a perfect cast in my eyes
0:45 this part always reminds me of a “Third-person GTA type mission” 😂
the sound that vincent makes upon being sprayed by the mac-10 is funny.
It was probably voiced over by him in another studio
In the early aughts, this movie was *the* 'cool kid' movie. Anytime I'd go over to a gathering with more than four people, this movie was on. I caught four minutes of this movie at a time, never actually watching it all the way through - but so frequently was it on the TVs of others that I saw this movie dozens of times. These clips hit in a really nostalgic way for me - it's literally the way I watched the movie. lol
I’m 19 and I some how just watched this movies yesterday and lemme tell you this whole scene is just amazing the suspense build up is perfect 🤙🏼
Vince was too doped up to hear the loud, aggressive cabinet close, the poptart slam, and the floor creak
No, he thought it was Marsellus Wallace coming back with the food. They probably went there together to kill Butch. In fact in the following scene, when Butch leaves his old apartment, who does he run into, at a pedestrian crossing? Marcellus Wallace, coming back with the food (and runs him over 😅).
Having heard how Bruce Willis got the part makes you understand how perfect Bruce was for him. He made it work
Once it's safe, he goes totally and convincingly limp for the Toaster Pastries--like we all do when we're thinking of cinnamon goodness.
I just recently caught on that nobody will really know how Vincent died. His death will turn to speculation and rumor just like how Vincent was wondering about the other henchman. The original conspiracy that the henchman's death was connected to his affiliation with Mia could be reinforced with Vincent's death, as Vincent and Mia were together the night before Vincent got shot.
Great theory but the other henchman Tony didn't die
Marsellus just saw his killer moments after it happened. He knows Butch just came from the apartment.
@@babywah3290Yeah but after what they passed at the store, i guess Marsellus will keep his lips shut
We need more movies like this. Fantastic actors real life action and dispense
Dispense? Can you explain the "dispense" you witnessed I this film?
It was a good movie, but very overrated.
I love me some dispense
Clothes, acting, carachters, places, the city.. everything is an inspiration for future movies and videogames, thats makes this movie a truly masterpiece, the point when carachters meet each other without know if even exist is another great detail that no other movie did

I had a buddy who hated John Travolta until he saw Pulp Fiction...after that it's like a light switch turned on in his head!! Quintin's movies do that to people...opens their eyes and mind to things that were always there!
Butch would resolve the situation without violence. He really tried. But Vincent touched his comic book!
Thanks, I was wondering about that book on the bathroom floor.
Fun fact: this scene had to be taken in one shot as Bruce Willis could only kill John travolta once
my favorite scene... LMAO when the toaster pops, the MAC-10 rips... excellent sequence!!!

No actor in this film stole the show because they were all so brilliant. 😊👏
The most disturbing thing about this scene is how Butch drops the toaster pastries vertically. Damn that always bothered me 😢
I love the fact that Butch is smart enough to wipe down the gun after he's finished, but he doesn't wipe down the toaster or the bathroom door (And we can clearly see him touch the door with his fingertips at about 3:50)
Maybe cause its his apartment
@@snabel4393 Hang on, so he'll wipe the handle of the entrance door to show he never went in to begin with, but won't do the door that's covered in blood?

1:52 he slides his key in so slowly/quietly but then just bangs open the door and slams it shut. lolwut?
Notice how the last shot before the kitchen shots show a racecar on the shelf. That's Tarantino's way of saying "Vincent is here". Earlier in the movie Vincent is wearing a speed racer shirt, and also compares himself to a racecar in another conversation.
Vincent is so hilariously incompetent that you have to question why the other characters even bring him along. Every problem in the movie is due to him fucking up somehow. He doesn't clear the apartment, allowing Hand Cannon Guy to get the drop on them. He blows Marvin's brains out and then is a dick to The Wolfe about it. He leaves his drugs lying around for Mia to OD on. He calls his dealer on a cellular phone. He almost turns the Diner Robbery into a bloodbath. And then he lets Butch get the drop on him. What an idiot.
