(SPOILERS) Kill Bill Talkback - Beyond Tiki

Some of their descriptions were quite poetic .... how about this description of 'Kill Bill' ... "You'll also see heads falling like snowflakes, limbs flying like sparrows and blood spurting like a firehose." Oddly enough, their website considers the 1998 remake of Psycho to be less offensive that the Scooby Doo movie. Their scoring system was skewed by the fact that the Psycho film had absolutely no swearing. Meanwhile, this is what they had to say about Scooby Doo .... "If it were not for Daphne's main outfit, the scoring would have been much higher. When a young woman repeatedly exposes the skin of her chest below her breast line and much of the skin of her breasts by wearing a very wide and low cut dress throughout a show, it is considered excessive." What they refer to as the most foul of foul words is 'fuck.' This word was partly responsible for the movie 'South Park' being given their highest ever CAP influence density value,which measures 'moral assault per hour.' As to the CAP copyright red dots, I definitely did notice them, and thought at first that there might be some subliminal message behind them, and was a bit annoyed that they were added post-production, and not part of Quentin's vision. Did anyone notice the ineffectiveness of guns in the film? The bullet intended to kill the bride did not do its job, and the gun used in the kitchen scene was poorly aimed. Once I had adjusted my worldview to one where swords were much more preferred than guns, it became a bit easier to adjust to a world where red dots were allowed to be briefly superimposed on the screen. I'm not really a big fan of kung fung or action/adventure films, but I loved the whole editing/anime/unique look and feel of this film, and wish more directors had the vision that Quentin has. Great, great soundtrack also -- especially Nancy Sinatra's leadof track and Santa Esmeralda's instrumental used during the snow/sword fight. Vern
