Home Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

I agree. Supposedly an homage to...

... the "70's grindhouse Asian martial arts movies" that Tarantino watched as an (apparently) very disturbed and bored teenager. I don't get it. What the hell are "grindhouse movies" and why would I want to see an homage to them?

I guess we can all be glad that Tarantino didn't spend part of his youth watching 60's industrial training films or army instructional shorts on hygiene otherwise we'd get "homages" to them as well, with the critics still raving over the technical brilliance of the filmmaking.

Perhaps one could arrange ABBA songs as a suite for full symphony orchestra and convince the Berlin Philharmonic to perform it. But why? It would still be garbage. Then, as a topper, imagine if the orchestra stopped playing halfway through the suite and asked that you return in 4 months to hear the rest.

Pulp Fiction was OK. But it just blows my mind that people are falling for this crap.
