Author Topic: Britney Spears in Faster Pussycat Kill Kill? Todd McCracken Master Film Handler Posts: 263 From: Northridge, CA, USA Registered: Mar 2008 posted 08-06-2008 04:47 PM                    Britney to star in Tarantino remake of Faster Pussycat KIll Kill. Well shucks, Tarantino pulled Travolta's careerer out of the fire, cant he do it for Britney?  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-06-2008 08:29 PM                        Well she found some acting cred on that TV show a while back, so who knows? At least it'd keep her from singing for a while which can't be a bad thing.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 08-06-2008 10:47 PM                     I thought Quentin Tarantino was making a movie called Raccoon Raping Bastards or something along those lines. It was supposed to be a World War II movie -starring raccoons. What the hell does Britney have to do with that? Too much eye makeup?  |  IP: Logged Todd McCracken Master Film Handler Posts: 263 From: Northridge, CA, USA Registered: Mar 2008 posted 08-07-2008 01:19 AM                    Inglorious bastards if Im not mistaken.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 08-07-2008 12:11 PM                       quote: Bobby Henderson was the last to post Tarantino  |  IP: Logged Mike Schindler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1039 From: Oak Park, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 08-07-2008 12:40 PM                     I highly doubt that this is happening. But if it is, I'll be first in line to see it.  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 08-07-2008 12:45 PM                        quote: The troubled singer will also have sex scenes with another girl before the drama ends in a blood-bath.

Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 08-07-2008 01:04 PM                     Is there something wrong with how I spelled "Tarantino" or do some people just not like his movies? I thought Death Proof sucked.  |  IP: Logged Chris Slycord Film God Posts: 2986 From: 퍼항시, 경상푹도, South Korea Registered: Mar 2007 posted 08-07-2008 03:11 PM                     You spelled it right; he probably just doesn't like the guy's movies. And for the record, I liked Death Proof though I can easily see how others wouldn't enjoy it.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 08-08-2008 12:12 AM                       Once again, Chris hits the nail on the head! Bobby, I actually quoted from Todd's post, but it came up saying you were the last one to post (I don't know why that sometimes happens)?? I just don't understand the appeal of the guy. From what I've seen, his stuff is very disjointed and uninteresting. And judging from interviews I've seen, he's a jerk personally; so there are no redeeming qualities to capture my esteem.  |  IP: Logged Mike Schindler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1039 From: Oak Park, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 08-08-2008 02:24 PM                     For me, the appeal of Tarantino is that all of his movies take ideas from other movies and refine them into something new. The end result is not just a good movie, but something which raises the bar, challenging other filmmakers to build on top of what becomes a new standard. In particular, if you haven't seen KILL BILL, I would highly recommend it. It's everything that movies can and should be, all crammed into 4 hours.  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 08-08-2008 03:05 PM                        My take on Tarantino is, I guess, somewhere between Tim's and Mike's. He's genuinely got something - using the 'scope frame and a constantly tracking camera to make the abandoned warehouse in Reservoir Dogs look weirdly claustrophobic reminded me of Hitchcock's mobile Technicolor camera in Rope but translated into widescreen, while the climax of Jackie Brown in which the same scene is replayed three times from the first person perspective of three different characters shows a real flair for scriptwriting. But there are only so many expletives and only so much blood, gore and guts splashing about all over the screen before you start to get a bit bored of it. I can't help thinking that if he'd started his career in the classical studio period, a Zanuck or a Warner or a Mayer would have forced him to take on projects that he might not have liked, but which would have focused his talent to the point at which we'd be thinking of him as a modern-day Curtiz, Cukor or Wyler rather than just an eccentric and entertaining maverick.  |  IP: Logged Todd McCracken Master Film Handler Posts: 263 From: Northridge, CA, USA Registered: Mar 2008 posted 08-08-2008 03:54 PM                    Wow Leo, that is very well put  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-08-2008 04:01 PM                     I wish Brittney Spears would just go jump into a Cement Mixer.... Glopada, glopada, glopada!  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 08-08-2008 05:01 PM                     Kill Bill 1 was great... 2, not so great. Death Proof... ugh. Also, this news seems to be made up as far as I can tell, Brad Pitt was just announced for Inglorious Bastards, but maybe the Faster Pussycat remake will be after that one.  |  IP: Logged
