Title: [Movie] - Grindhouse
Post by: TheNightWatchman on April 14, 2007, 01:59:45 pm

Alright here's another movie post.

It's not out here for a few weeks but what does everyone think of Grindhouse?

Apparently people aren't quite understanding the concept of it, especially that it's a double feature (people leaving after the first movie ends, etc).

I havent seen it yet.. but I want to.. it looks pretty amazing.

I wonder why people would leave after the first movie? Arent they like 45 minutes each or something?

Yes but I think the problem is there is credits, and people assume when they see credits that it has finished.

I don't understand the purpose of this movie either, I want to see it but I have always hated Quintin Taratino movies.

Mind filling me in as to why you would have two movies? Also, is it good? Do you recommend it?

It still hasn't come out here yet but, the purpose of it was to recreate a 'grindhouse' film,
see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grindhouse
Basically it was just a bit of fun, and they would do "double features" to entice more people to come.

oh very interesting. I don't think it's in theatres anymore here, I'll wait until it comes out on dvd.

Apparently they're splitting it for DVD as well, so not having a double feature because people couldn't grasp the concept of it and was walking out when the first one finished, etc.

haha that's kinda funny. They should have had a message at the beginning of the credits just to say please do not leave, we are having another movie!

I don't know why anyone would leave after the first movie, in my opinion, the ads in between the movies were the best part.
