Pulp Fiction

Yeah, I know it's Tarantino's so called "best" film but the movie drags now. It was cool when it first came out but now it just drags a lot more than it does entertain although Samuel Jackson's scenes are still gold.


Reservoir Dogs holds up a lot better than Pulp Fiction anyway; better storytelling, more profound characters and better writing.

Reservoir Dogs is Tarantino's best film in my opinion.

I honestly don't see how Pulp Fiction hasn't aged well since there was really nothing in the movie that dated it or anything. I consider it pretty much timeless.

Now a movie that has aged horribly is New Jack City, that shyt is so cheesy now.

Eh, just seems dated to me now.

As for New Jack City, aside from some of the cats haircuts in the movie, nah. It's still great a great film. Classic.

Pulp was a big deal when it was released in the 90's but it has not aged well. The movie drags now. :manny:
:what:

Pulp Fiction hearkens back to a certain style of writing. It's Tarantino's ode to the Pulp Magazines that he grew up with. So what you're seeing as it not aging well, was actually there on it's release date and was done with purpose.

But sometimes I think people just say controversial shyt just to say it. The movie is what it is. There are no corny references, setups, etc. The message in the movie is universal.

And this is when I take the day off from The Coli...shyt like this. See ya'll tomorrow.

I'll leave you guys with these parting thoughts...

The Graduate.

The story is fine and the performances are excellent, but a lot of the camera work really dates it imo.
