He did have some decent hits in the 90's, primarily Face Off, which did make him a boatload of cash. I would say that was the peak of his career post-Fiction. I'm not saying Pulp Fiction didn't change his life, and get him some very nice paychecks in the following years. But the public perception of him as "cool" again or a great actor didn't last long.

Wild Hogs, The taking of Pelham 1 2 3 and From Paris with love,
      in 2010. From there on, yeah, his career went hopelessly downhill and into the "straight to dvd" aisle. But, then again, he made a good run during those 10-15 years for an actor that was already considered washed up.

      Jeffrey: Self expression would be a HUGE perk of folks who produce video, movies, etc.
      For me, the reason I love adult cartoons like "The Simpsons" and so many others so much is all the great social commentary.
      To have a CAREER doing that seems like it would be MASSIVELY fulfilling compared to 99% of ordinary jobs, IMO.
      So for example, if it weren't for the social commentary, I wouldn't like South Park at all.

      Diablo: A really good to great movie requires a LOT of talent to come together. Acting, writing, directing, and production that is willing to stay mostly the hell out of the way, and let the crew do the work.
      What's more normal for movies, per various documentaries, is procrastination and far too much rushing at the end, to where it's a wonder many movies aren't far worse than they are.

    Tarantino has this skill of making every line, every move, every detail meaningful.
    Just imagine, when Jules is told they’re sending the Wolf and he goes “shit, negro, that’s all you had to say.”
    The line is sort of a joke, a break of tension, but it still doesn’t feel like improv, ad lib, mouth diarrhoea or anything like that. It feels like every word is exactly what Jules would say, he’s not a character in a movie, so much as a character alive in a movie.

    As a 45 year old man, the more videos I watch concerning movies from the ‘80s and ‘90s, the more I realize that, at least in this regard, my entire childhood was a sham!
    Now, it’s not so surprising to me that many of the movies that were considered to be box office gold at the time did very little to pique my interest as a juvenile from the ages of 8 to 18. But when hear titles like ‘Howard the Duck’, ‘Labyrinth’, ‘The Dark Crystal’, ‘Legend’, ‘Flight of the Navigator’, ‘The Last Starfighter’, etc consistently lambasted in conversations and lists featuring “the biggest box office flops of the decade”, and even “the biggest box office flops of all time”, I have to pinch myself and reassess my position as a member of the human family. Because some folks be having sh*t for tastes in movies and music.

    He didn't give Bruce Willis career a "2nd wind" Bruce was one of, if not the biggest star in the world at the time. Especially with the Asian audiences. Having him come aboard the film is what gave them the freedom to do basically whatever they wanted. That all comes straight from Tarantino on Tom Seguras podcast.

    Unbelievably perfect cast! I cannot imagine a single character being played by anyone else! Actually, there is one exception: I did find Tarantino playing the part of Jimmie to be disturbing and immersion breaking somehow. Tarantino having such distinctive features and voice prevents him from "melting in" to the movie very well.

      People carry personas onto the screen. Tarantino's persona is unlikable, which I think he realizes. He played the jerk in Dusk Till Dawn, which worked for that movie. But yeah, in Pulp Fiction his energy was wrong. You'll laugh at this, but I think it's true: Michael J Fox would have played the character better.

    I must have been around 13 years old when my younger brother found an unmarked VHS hidden away in the bookshelf at home and decided to see what was on it. It was Pulp Fiction. We knew we'd hit the jackpot, so we secretly watched it in installments whenever the coast was clear. We thought it was the coolest film ever, but nothing could have prepared is for the scene where Zed rapes Marcellus. We looked at eachother in pure shock, our chins hitting the floor! Then we told everyone at school we'd seen it, meaning we were cool for a week or so. Great times.

    Quentin did some decent podcasts in the last few weeks talking about lots of this exact info. Very interesting and a good listen. He was on YMH with Tom Segura recently and it was entertaining. He even roasts Tom in the final interview minutes and embarrasses him which is awesome cuz tom is a professional comedian lol Quentin actually is a big stand up comedy fan. Anyway I suggest listening to his recent interviews! Apparently he’s only doing 1 more movie (10th) which hes stated before, but even more interesting he has written a screenplay for a potential future limited series! Im soo looking forward to seeing his future projects

    I can't imagine Stallone doing Butch's Samurai sword scene - nor any other actor doing any of the parts, for that matter - the casting for this film was perfect - but I suppose it's easy to say that after the fact. Some other films that I think were perfectly cast are McCabe and Mrs. Miller, The Great Gatsby (the first one!) amd Withnail and I - but I'm sure there are loads more. I think someone should write a comparison between Pulp Fiction and Withnail, actually - they were filmed at about the same time on low budgets, there's lots of swearing, drug abuse, anti- 'WOKE' language etc, etc - but the main thing about both films is that they are driven by wonderful, totally believable, realistic comic dialogue which contrasts massively with the full horror of what is actually going on. Pulp Fiction is rather like a Greek tradegy, in the sense that much of the violence occurs off-screen - e.g. we don't see Brad's head being blown off, we don't see Zed being tortured to death, we don't see the boxing match in which Butch beats Floyd to death, we don't see Butch's trainer being tortured to see if he knew about the fight fix - these are just a few. The triumph of the film is that it manages to float above all this horror in a kind of 'bubble' with a wonderful, brilliantly-written, comic script. The writing also reminds me of that in Jonathan Swift's 'Gulliver's Travels' - in both works, the situations that are created create a context for wonderfully absurd lines such as '... it ain't the coffee in my kitchen - it's the dead nigger in my garage' - etc. Swift was the master of this kind of writing - he creates a world in which it is quite possible for a nine-year-old girl to pick up a 'boat capable of holding 40 men' - etc., etc. Tarantino taps into that same kind of writing, which allows for completely unexpected juxtapositions - but I suspect he got it more from film than literature. The underlying 'horror' in Withnail is, of course, the potential suicidal despair of Withnail himself, who was modelled on a real person who tragically died young.
