5 Minute Read



Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary at some point in their early film-maker lives came up with a bunch of tiny little stories that they wanted to develop into movies. And one day a stroke of genius struck these two. Those little stories could be told together as one film, with interconnected characters. Quentin took off with the concept and wrote the final script. And then took off with said final script and made the movie itself. A movie that a lot of people consider to be one of the greatest masterpieces ever made. Yet, with that, re-watching it for this review, it struck me how amateurish the movie feels, despite its greatness. ↩ Reply

@blenderdumbass > Almost every single transition is a fade to black and then fade out of black.

Yikes, even in early silent films there were more variations.

@blenderdumbass When it comes to transitions, one of the first things that come to my mind is the opening in Citizen Kane. By that, I mean just before the Rosebud incident.

In December of 2025, my neighbor, Quentin Tarantino finally released Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair. The film that was originally meant to be, but that was unfortunately cut into two volumes upon its original release, 2 decades ago. Therefore for this review I will be treating Volume 1 and Volume 2 as one film, even though it has a rather substantial intermission in its not-directors-cut version. Re-experiencing the story of the Bride and her revenge, for this review, filled me with some rather profound questions. Questions that I believe I started asking in my review of Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood. Questions as to: what is the meaning of Kill Bill?

[icon reviews]The Fifth Element 1997 is the most tragic film in Luc Besson's career

It is not a spoiler in 2025 that the message of Luc Besson's 1997 film The Fifth Element is "Love". The fifth element itself ( a revelation in the end of the film ) appears to be Love. And the thesis is that Love is the thing that can defeat the evil in the world. But looking at the film and the behind the scenes drama around it, you can say that Besson didn't really mean love in its purest sense. But he was instead preaching a Bonobo Philosophy. Where "love" or in modern language sex, is used to deescalate conflict. Bonobos are known to fuck each other instead of fighting with each other, making themselves more peaceful. Looking at how horny The Fifth Element ( and Luc Besson ) is, the Bonobo philosophy theory sounds to be a much more plausible reading of the film. Making it very tragic indeed.
