    Hated kill bill and not massively keen on death proof. Pulp Fiction is brilliant and enjoyed Django. Wasnt epic but decent enough.

    Its the best thing on TV right now, and probably the best show since The Wire and The Sopranos.
    Depends whether Medieval politics, violence, and borderline porn are your thing...which they are mine <laugh>

    Not a fan of LOTR and that type of medieval stuff tbh but its seems ok so far.

    And Breaking bad was better that the other 2 you mentioned ( though I havent seen them, on my list ).

    Breaking Bad wasnt as good as any of the 3 shows I have talked about in my opinion.

    It was very good, and I enjoyed it immensely but it was on AMC, so no swearing or sex. Plus the last half season was dog $hite.

    Spoilers.............




    Why spend all those seasons building up to a big Walt V Hank stand off, only to have Hank die almost immediately after finding out about Walt and I ****ing hate it when they introduce villains right at the end of a shows run....like the Neo Nazi redneck dudes who steal Walts money and hold Jesse hostage. I dont ****ing care about them, they have been in the show for 5 ****ing minutes......I wanted to see Hank and Walt fight it out......

    Oh and for TV shows - game of thrones is quality, stick with it you'll enjoy it uir.

    Breaking bad was ****ing awesome.

    One TV show I recommend to absolutely anyone I talk to about TV series is Jericho. It's one of the best series I think I've ever seen. Problem is it only lasts for two seasons and then it got cancelled. It has since grown incredibly popular online (and is available on Netflix) and they are considering producing a third series now, years later.

    It's about a town in America that gets cut off when nukes go off nearby in America. Hey have no idea what has happened and the story unravels from there.

    But yeh, be warned you will greatly into it and then it'll just end on you!

    Well it was better than Inglorious Bastards, which I thought was ****. For me Reservoir Dogs is still number 2 behind Pulp Fiction

    Christoph Waltz was good (The German bounty hunter guy), but wasnt too fond of the rest of the film to be honest. Jamie Foxx is a douchebag.
    Preferred Inglorious myself, in which Christoph Waltz was awesome, and it had Fassbender in it, who is a genius.

    I seem to be alone in the world in thinking Jackie Brown was a good movie!

    For me, Reservoir Dogs is his best film, followed by Inglorious.
    Worst is Pulp Fiction, steaming pile of pretentious, self important, horse sh!te.

    Waltz is brilliant in bastards.

    What about nbk? Not one he directed but imo a fantastic film. Theres also sin city which im not overly keen about. Decent but not something to shout about. Again he was involved in the film.

    I'm a huge Vampire fan, and I mean cool Vampire movies, like the Lost Boys, Fright Night, Interview with a Vampire etc
    First time I watched Dusk I had no idea it was a Vampire film.
    Thought the film was awesome for the first 40 minutes,(The gas station opening is still one of the best movie opening scenes) seemed like a psychological thriller where I thought Clooney's character was going to have to try to contain his brother's (Tarantino) psychopathic tendencies and stop him murdering Harvey Keitels family and figured he was going to have to "Of Mice and Men his ass" and end up having to kill his brother to save the family and it would be deep and poignant......boy was I ever wrong.....
    Salma Hayeks dance was sexy as hell, but then loads of bad costumed "vampire" monsters turned up and the film became absolutely ridiculous.......came way out of left field.
    When they first showed up I was like "huh? Did that just happen?!" for about 10 minutes...before I sighed and watched the rest of the film with a furrowed brow.
