<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I loved that. It was supposed to look ridiculously over the top. Like anime or cheesy kung fu movies.

The movie would seem bland without it now. I guess it's just something you get or you don't.

I saw it twice in the theatres and since i bought the DVD I've watched it 4 times.

The 2nd one is alot more like a western. Not very much combat really at all. Lot's of dialogue and story though.

You obviously haven't seen enough old chinese kung-fu films if you think that blood spray was over the top chaser.....

well I've seen a few Bruce Lee flics and dont remember that happening. Guess I wasnt expecting it more than anything. still loved the flic

I was under the impression the spraying blood was more of a relfection of the animated violence style... the movie had more of an anime flavour than an old kung-fu movie flavour to me... of course, the anime sequence might have something to do with that...

yeah, it was for more of an anime feel (just look at O-Ren's history part) but, the cutting off limbs and having stubs and people screaming was in like, old kung-fu and samurai movies back in the day, and, well, Tarntino takes from what he likes, and he likes those movies http://www.hostboard.com/forums/

I always loved the part in Akira Kurasawa's RAN where the evil wife gets her head cut off and the blood sprays out in the manner it does. Evil whore!!! [img]graemlins/cake.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/sun.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rainbow.gif[/img]

Chaser I'm ashamed of you. After all of this talk and you still haven't offered to give autographs to any of us for your role in the movie
