I saw it in the theater with my cousin the first time. I had seen Reservoir Dogs and convinced him that we needed to watch this. We were quoting the movie all the way home. When Vincent shot Marvin we exploded laughing. I looked around and everyone else had this shocked look on their faces, which made us laugh more. I don't think I've had a better time at the theatre since.
I don't remember why my friends and I went to see it, it wasn't my idea, but we did and it's one of the movies I have the most vivid memories of seeing. I'll never forget Roth near the end shouting "Garcon, coffee" and realizing "ohhh shit, this is where we began." I'd never seen a movie do that (I had not seen Reservoir Dogs yet either). I remember being at a small handful of movies where the audience clapped at the end, I can't say for sure but this may have been one of them.
This was sold as a big comeback for Travolta at the time (it was). But it was also a decent comeback for Bruce Willis after a few early 90s misfires and a huge career boost for Thurman and Jackson. I'd say the latter two benefitted the most.
It was also the movie that first gave him the role as a bad guy (if we don't count being a douchebag in "Carrie") and he loved it. So he accepted many roles as bad guy in movies after that.
The glowing suitcase is an homage to Robert Aldrich's film noir classic KISS ME DEADLY, where a briefcase contained glowing plutonium. The car in REPO MAN was also a homage to it.
For some odd reason, in my head cannon, I always thought up or came up with the notion that the katana that Butch pulled from the wall in the pawn shop was Bud's Hatori Hanzo sword from Kill Bill Vol 2. Now I know what you are thinking, and that Bill said to Elle that Bud pawned it off for 250.00. Not to make note that the Kill Bill movies were made long after Pulp Fiction (PF in 1994 and KB 1 & 2 were in 2003 and 2004 respectively) But remember, that again QT's movies are filmed out of sequence but in random places within his universe. So maybe, at one time Bud did pawn off his Hatori Hanzo sword off for beer and cigarettes at some point, but then had second thoughts and bought it out of hock, maybe he had to chase it down for a bit as it had left Texas, and found it's way off to California. Maybe Bud got lucky and managed to pick it up after Butch fled after his attack and saving Marcelous from Zedd. He could had just walked right in, picked up the sword, wiped the blood off and walked out with it before the cops showed up. Just a random thought of my own head cannon.
21 when I saw it, and still in the Navy. This movie certainly changed my taste in movies and I looked for move movies like it, but sadly none ever came close.
So is Zeds chopper Grace, she was one of my favourite bikes of all time wish it had a bigger part in the film or give it a part in other films. To me Grace is iconic as the peterbilt from Steven Spielberg duel or the Plymouth fury from Stephen King Christine. Grace is not to be confused with Grace from ghost rider which was probably the best part of that film 🙄🙄
@@sirenofthesea7802 I've read it was originally supposed to be diamonds, probably when it was supposed to tie into RD, but that was thought to be too cliche after the connection was dropped, so they decided that it should just be a mystery.
@@CONSOLETRUTH2 Actually, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is his 9th. The reason he dropped out of directing the next Star Trek film is because he didn't want it to be his 10th (and final) film.
I agree, due to the fact that once upon a time in Hollywood was mediocre. not as good as most of his other work, but okay I guess. Plus hateful eight sucked major ass in my opinion.

It's amazing how the concept of movie telling came about - out of sequence. And people today still do get how it works... I love it - its like a little puzzle you put together and Voila!!!
"Aw man I shot Marvin in the face." You can hear the rest of it... How Vince treats it like he just spilled milk and Jules and later Jimmy are flipping out hardcore.
@@Cydonia2020 It seemed a bit obvious despite it coming as a shock. He was waving a load gun around AT a person, of COURSE its going to go off. I think it was the WHEN that came as shock for me.
@drew pedersen Naw, he was some sort of inside associate for Wallace. When you watch the movie again, you'll see Marvin open the door for Jules and Vincent when they arrive.
Fun Fact: When Quentin was visiting Hawaii. He asked his driver if there was a place to get some good food. The driver takes him to his restaurant. He gives him a burger. Quentin loved it so much, he asked if he could put it in his movie. That's where Big Kahuna Burger came from. There are 3 Big Kahunas. 2 in San Diego, Ca and 1 in Hawaii. The dad owns the 1 in Hawaii and his son's own the other 2.
Man I did not know that and I go to San Diego every year and nobody said nothing about it. Thanks will check it out along with the Top Gun bbq place. Cheers!
"A pair of pliers and a blowtorch." I don't suspect Marcellus was planning on removing the buckshot in Zed's groin with the pliers and cauterizing the wounds with the blowtorch to keep him alive for an extended torture. He was just going to skin him alive and leave him to die in agonizing pain.
@Bill Whittaker True, but, they can photoshop; I have a poster of Connery as Bond holding a pistol that wasn't even made back then. But, yeah, it looks like Yravolta to me, too, especially the t-shirt.
@@varanid9 I get what you're saying but it's definitely Travolta. In the final scene of the movie, he's pointing the gun up at Honey Bunny as Julz talks with Punkin (Tim Roth)
I _adore_ this movie. I remember seeing it with friends when it first came out (I was in high school at the time), and it became our instant favorite. We were talking about it and quoting lines for months afterward, and it cemented Tarantino as one of my favorite writer/directors.
Thank you Minty! This movie has a special place in my mind as it reminds me of a time when I was at university and we couldn't stop reciting lines from that crazy dialogue. I look forward to your videos every week and I appreciate a your hard work even when you unintentionally make me laugh out loud with such gems as "Souvlakia" as a country! 😂😆👍🏽👌🏽
He's right up there with Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese. Robert Rodriguez of course has his own moments considering they collaborate quite often.
Rob T, in the movie (spoiler ahead) Samuel L Jackson character, Nick Fury dies. But Nick Fury actually faked his death to make Hydra think he was death. On his Nick Fury tombstone it said, “The path of the righteous man”
As a Portuguese, I must thank you for doing this video. As a fan of Maria de Medeiros (she's one of our best international actresses and directors, and I'm a really big fan of her), I love watching her as Bruce's girlfriend in the movie.
I can see Matt Dillon pulling off the role of Butch...but Sylvester Stallone was also a choice for the role and he would've done way better than Matt Dillon...and considering the Rocky movies Stallone as the a boxer in Pulp Fiction would've been badass. Nothing against Willis tho...he had his usual tough guy attitude like in the Die Hard films,Last Boy Scout,and much more of his other earlier films.
Heard that Christopher Walken done “The gold watch” scene in one take. “Hhhe hid it!, it the one place he knew he could hide something...his ass! 5 long years he wore this watch, up his ass. He died of dysentery. He gimme the watch, I hid this uncomfortable hunk of metal up my ass 2 years. And after 7 years I was sent home to my family. Now, little man, I give the watch to you!” 😳😳
MINTY, TNK U SO MCH 100X 4D REVIEW OF THIS CINEMATIC GEM..I WAITED A LONG TIME 4 U TO REVIEW DIS FILM. I APPRECIATE IT A LOT, BIGTIME!!! PULP FICTION IS A CLASSIC FILM. THANK YOU MINTY.
The legendary Dick Dale helped kick the movie off. Tarantino knew he was going to use Misirlou before he fully knew what the movie was going to be about.
Love this movie. Saw it at the movies. It's will always hold close place in my heart too cuz my cousin took me to see this movie that past almost 10 years ago. So it has great memories for me when I first saw this wonderful clever movie. Love the Bonnie situation segment. My favorite one😆
I felt like I was on really good drugs the entire movie and I was never so relieved as I was at the End of the Bruce Willis segment. Pulp Fiction is the Greatest movie ever made!
I agree that it's probably better NOT knowing what's in the case. I love Mr. Bishop's explanation, that it's beyond our comprehension to understand what it is. But notice that Tim Roth's character RECOGNIZED what it is! So it may be beyond our capability to DESCRIBE, but we would all know what it is if we saw it. I find this AMAZING!
Funny connection to this movie: In the 90s, shortly after this was released on home video, White Wolf Inphobia Magazine, Issue 44, had a pack-in Rage CCG card. It was labeled "Get Medieval," and the werewolf in the pic is holding a blowtorch and a pair of pliers .
The scene that still gets me to this very day is when Uma Thurman's character gets stabbed through the chest and in the heart with the adrenaline needle... The first time I saw the scene I'm thinking "Wouldn't it kill her? because she just got stabbed in the heart." Even if it is an adrenaline injection... Or was she able to regain consciousness because that the magic of making movies as the old saying goes "Only in the movies." Or "It's a movie, anything can happen." Tell me what you guys.
The brief case represents desire, just as Quinten Tarantino said himself whatever's in the Briefcase whatever you think it is whatever you desire is in the case and the gold light is to represent that it's what you want the most making the Briefcase a symbol for greed and desire
This is the kicker. The colors of the case the combo the light that's the light that shines in the darkness. You could have it any way you want it. Just remember that want comes with payment when and when payment is do you meet the Equalizers. I am Lucid I see behind the veil.
I'm too literal for interpretations like that. Same as movies with huge plot holes...can't freaking stand that bs. "oh you have to ignore them and enjoy the movie" nope.
Souvlakia? Where is that country? You listed this as one of the places pulp fiction screened before the U.S! Thanks for the content Minty, much love from the good coast😁
Good stuff Minty! I just realized watching this that Tarantino was so great at making 'alternate universes'. Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction seemed to take place in another world that only looked similar to a major American city. Whereas his later movies tend to try to enforce this 'alternate existence' of Wouldn't It Be Great If.... Hitler was taken out in a movie theater, or Manson's minions were taken out by a couple of Hollywood old standards. Other movies like Dusk Till Dawn, Hateful Eight, and Death Proof are to me 'too out there to be believed'. Not that they're bad movies - but exist in a totally foreign realm that is hard to relate to. But Tarantino shines best when it's characters and settings are something we can relate to, think we may have actually brushed by, and is possible the situation(s) could be happening at any moment near us today or tomorrow or maybe last week. Which I think Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction does in spades!
The mid 1950's movie staring Cloris Leachman, "Kiss Me Deadly", based on a Micky Spillane pulp fiction detective novel, had a briefcase containing a mystery glowing item thought to be some sort of nuclear fuel or item, such as uranium. I'm sure, that Tarintino got the briefcase idea from that movie.
At the end of The Spy Who Loved Me, it announced Bond’s next film will be For Your Eyes Only, but the success of Star Wars made the studio decide to do Moonraker instead, hoping to capitalize on the resurgence of sci-fi space movies. There’s your second fact.
As in one common item that everyone shares a want for? Or as in the item changes depending on whomever opens it and looks in to become whatever that person desires most?
“Hey Debbie, Hey Brody. What a day for a mow huh” I could quote that movie for days & it’s been maybe eight years since the last time I watched it. “What did you need so many copies of the book for? Incase I wanted to read it more than once.” The Best.
Makes sense since all of Tarantino's movies take place in the same universe. I mean Travolta's character is the brother of one of the dudes in Reseviore Dog's
@@CONSOLETRUTH2 Travoltas characters brother in Reservoir Dogs is Vic Vega played by Michael Madsen. He's been in a few other films like Free Willy and Free Willy 2 as the adoptive father...he's Budd in Kill Bill 2,Hateful 8,and fun fact...Madsen was offered the role of Vincent Vega for Pulp Fiction but turned it down and John Travolta took the role.
Very well done Minty! And props for pointing out Rob Ager. He's a great film analyst, as are you. Although his analyses are more psychological. You always tend to hit a nostalgic, nerve and it's nice to see that we can all share similar understanding of the films we love. I'd like to see your take on 2002's "The Secretary", since it's near to my heart.
I was not excited to see this movie but WOW when we did I was shocked and pleasantly surprised. By partner at work and I would make quotes from this movie nearly everyday. Re: the briefcase I liked the party where Tim Roth's character asked, "Is that what I think it is" upon viewing the content of the case. It makes it more magical or mythical than just a good bar, etc.
I saw it in the theater with my cousin the first time. I had seen Reservoir Dogs and convinced him that we needed to watch this. We were quoting the movie all the way home. When Vincent shot Marvin we exploded laughing. I looked around and everyone else had this shocked look on their faces, which made us laugh more. I don't think I've had a better time at the theatre since.
I laughed too...the way he said, "I shot Marvin in the face."
I don't remember why my friends and I went to see it, it wasn't my idea, but we did and it's one of the movies I have the most vivid memories of seeing. I'll never forget Roth near the end shouting "Garcon, coffee" and realizing "ohhh shit, this is where we began." I'd never seen a movie do that (I had not seen Reservoir Dogs yet either).

Other than Willis, you right, but Bruce had just wrapped up the last of the real “Die Hard” movies
Remember, Bruce Willis and Travolta BOTH were in the Look Who's Talkin movies
I was shocked when they got dragged to an dungeon underneath a pawn shop. I never looked at pawn shops the same after I saw this flick
Oh yea, most pawn shops have that going on lol

Now let’s go do those crimes! Yeah, let’s get sushi and not pay!
My favorite bit of trivia for this film has always been that Marvin is played by Phil LaMarr, who is a hilarious comedian and now famous voice actor
Did you see ''Gump Fiction'' on MAD tv with Phil LaMarr?
We're lucky we got anything. I don't think Buddy Holly's much of a waiter.

An entire movie of memorable scenes. My friends and I saw this movie so many times in theaters at 16 years old.
You and I are the same age. This film came out when I was 16. Saw it in theaters too.
I was 18 in 1994.
Joe Cook Looks like we were all in high school around the same time. Cool!

The soundtrack is epic.... Scorching surf rock, timeless rock ballads, and pure Soul by Al Green and Dusty Springfield!
I always liked the idea that the jewelry from the Resivor Dogs movie is in the case.
I think that's one of the highest ranking theories. Might've also made another great tie in for the two films.

And he would look quite scary if you didn't know his personality.
I want minty to b in a movie, maybe he could star in a Hitman remake( even though minty normally doesn't like remakes)
With no smile and them shades, yes hes not someone youd wanna walk up too lol
Number 69
Nobody:
Samuel L. Jackson:
"I DON'T REMEMBER ASKING YOU A GOD DAMN THING!!!!"
You were sayin'?
Another great video, Minty... you deserve a million subs.
Funny connection to this movie: In the 90s, shortly after this was released on home video, White Wolf Inphobia Magazine, Issue 44, had a pack-in Rage CCG card. It was labeled "Get Medieval," and the werewolf in the pic is holding a blowtorch and a pair of pliers .
The briefcase has whomever looks inside its greatest hopes and dreams. So when Travolta looks in he sees his life without Scientology.
🤣
The greatest movie ever made. ❤️
Yes sir I agree!
The scene that still gets me to this very day is when Uma Thurman's character gets stabbed through the chest and in the heart with the adrenaline needle... The first time I saw the scene I'm thinking "Wouldn't it kill her? because she just got stabbed in the heart." Even if it is an adrenaline injection... Or was she able to regain consciousness because that the magic of making movies as the old saying goes "Only in the movies." Or "It's a movie, anything can happen." Tell me what you guys.
One of my all-time favorite movies. The dialogue is epic.
The brief case represents desire, just as Quinten Tarantino said himself whatever's in the Briefcase whatever you think it is whatever you desire is in the case and the gold light is to represent that it's what you want the most making the Briefcase a symbol for greed and desire
R
Mike Hunt thanks
This is the kicker. The colors of the case the combo the light that's the light that shines in the darkness. You could have it any way you want it. Just remember that want comes with payment when and when payment is do you meet the Equalizers. I am Lucid I see behind the veil.
Its the ring from lotr
I'm too literal for interpretations like that. Same as movies with huge plot holes...can't freaking stand that bs. "oh you have to ignore them and enjoy the movie" nope.
Souvlakia? Where is that country? You listed this as one of the places pulp fiction screened before the U.S! Thanks for the content Minty, much love from the good coast😁
Now I want souvlakia, basically just a Greek barbecue
LOL. A country with great kebobs ! With tzaziki.
It's clearly a Willy Wonka Golden Ticket in the briefcase. lol
Ever watch "Kiss Me Deadly".
Na, it's a collection of magnum rubbers 😆
presumably used?
Its the one ring to rule them all
The one c*ck ring to rule them all?
13:03 just under the board game of Operation is the board game Life.
One of my favorite movies. Thanks Minty.
"I love you. I love you too, Honey Bunny."
One of the best movies ever.
This movie has the MOST quoted lines that literally everybody recognizes!
Good stuff Minty! I just realized watching this that Tarantino was so great at making 'alternate universes'. Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction seemed to take place in another world that only looked similar to a major American city. Whereas his later movies tend to try to enforce this 'alternate existence' of Wouldn't It Be Great If.... Hitler was taken out in a movie theater, or Manson's minions were taken out by a couple of Hollywood old standards. Other movies like Dusk Till Dawn, Hateful Eight, and Death Proof are to me 'too out there to be believed'. Not that they're bad movies - but exist in a totally foreign realm that is hard to relate to. But Tarantino shines best when it's characters and settings are something we can relate to, think we may have actually brushed by, and is possible the situation(s) could be happening at any moment near us today or tomorrow or maybe last week. Which I think Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction does in spades!
So Lucky Stripes”, turned down Free Advertisement that could of been in All of Quentin Tarantino films?
Exactly. A cigarette company turns publicity right when the tobacco industry was getting its advertising seriously reduced by the government
Jules: You sending 'The Mint'?
Marsellus: Oh, you feel better?
Jules: Sheee, that's all you had to say!
It's ok to say 'negro'.
'the wolf'
Another great video! Thanks Minty! We appreciate all your research and fun facts!
Always look forward to your videos. Great stuff!
The mid 1950's movie staring Cloris Leachman, "Kiss Me Deadly", based on a Micky Spillane pulp fiction detective novel, had a briefcase containing a mystery glowing item thought to be some sort of nuclear fuel or item, such as uranium. I'm sure, that Tarintino got the briefcase idea from that movie.
Man Miramax was the greatest hard to believe they owned by disney for certain amount of time
Great video Minty, you are spot on. Now I want to watch it again! I think in the case, is their ego shining back into their faces.
My all time favorite movie!! I've been waiting for this one!!
10 things you didn’t know about Moonraker
I'd say "its horrible" but we all know that.
At the end of The Spy Who Loved Me, it announced Bond’s next film will be For Your Eyes Only, but the success of Star Wars made the studio decide to do Moonraker instead, hoping to capitalize on the resurgence of sci-fi space movies.
There’s your second fact.
PissedOffDragon Yup. I know that fact
10 things you don't give a shit about moonraker.
I would like to believe that whatever was in the suitcase it is people's deepest desire
As in one common item that everyone shares a want for? Or as in the item changes depending on whomever opens it and looks in to become whatever that person desires most?
@@adamberndt4190 the latter
Thanks for the wait... !
About time we got this one. Thanks Minty!
Hey Minty, when Quentin Tarantino makes his 10th film you should do one fact on each one!
I'll bet tri-star are still kicking themselves.
I'm the TriStar I'm the Trident I'm the Triumphant
I bet Matt Dillon is kicking himself too!
So happy you posted another Tarantino!! You are awesome Minty!!
I was waiting for this one. Thanks Minty!
I always thought what was in the briefcase was the score from Reservoir Dogs...
How about “My Blue Heaven” next Minty? It is one of my favorite, anyone else?
I tip everyone
Such a great movie!!
What's the difference between a lightbulb and a pregnant woman? You can unscrew a lightbulb! See, no sense of humor whatsoever!
“Hey Debbie, Hey Brody. What a day for a mow huh”
I could quote that movie for days & it’s been maybe eight years since the last time I watched it.
“What did you need so many copies of the book for? Incase I wanted to read it more than once.”
The Best.
@@aaronburratwood.6957 You got something against books?
Love this one!
Great job minty on the best gangster movie of all time. Great job,as always. Thanks.
Uma is so hot
Fun Fact: Jueles is in kill bill as the man who witnessed the bride's massacre. Following up to Jules revelation. (Uncredited)
He played the church's organ player.
Makes sense since all of Tarantino's movies take place in the same universe. I mean Travolta's character is the brother of one of the dudes in Reseviore Dog's
Kill Bill is actually a film within his Universe. Meaning The Bride is played by Mia Wallace and is something Jules would watch at the cinema.
His name is Rufus
@@CONSOLETRUTH2 Travoltas characters brother in Reservoir Dogs is Vic Vega played by Michael Madsen. He's been in a few other films like Free Willy and Free Willy 2 as the adoptive father...he's Budd in Kill Bill 2,Hateful 8,and fun fact...Madsen was offered the role of Vincent Vega for Pulp Fiction but turned it down and John Travolta took the role.
Very well done Minty! And props for pointing out Rob Ager. He's a great film analyst, as are you. Although his analyses are more psychological.
You always tend to hit a nostalgic, nerve and it's nice to see that we can all share similar understanding of the films we love.
I'd like to see your take on 2002's "The Secretary", since it's near to my heart.
Can’t wait to see ya take this one on...! Ps love your content bro, keep up the GREAT work!!!
Did you see a sign that said dead minty storage?
You know what’s on my mind right now? It ain’t the comments under the channel...
@@SmilingDevil He lives in Frankston, every second house in that suburb has a dead body storage...
No, but I heard he serves up a great cup of coffee.
Just say the word. It's not like it's a big thing these days.
@@DeathBYDesign666 I did say minty.
Pretty sure that's Travolta on the Japanese movie poster NOT Roth.
yeah I agree! (at 9:27 or so)
Definitely Travolta
@Bill Whittaker Yeah, my though exactly!
@Bill Whittaker Link wouldnt work for me, but this one should: th-cam.com/video/mvy4YH9--Vw/w-d-xo.htmlm15s
I was not excited to see this movie but WOW when we did I was shocked and pleasantly surprised. By partner at work and I would make quotes from this movie nearly everyday. Re: the briefcase I liked the party where Tim Roth's character asked, "Is that what I think it is" upon viewing the content of the case. It makes it more magical or mythical than just a good bar, etc.
Great movie, great video... Thx Minty! Love the suit
