Re: Pulp Fiction.
It depends on which one you saw first.
People who saw "Reservoir Dogs" first like it better, because they had never seen anything like it before. People who saw "Pulp Fiction" first like it better, because they had never seen anything like it before. (Me? I like "Dogs" better. I saw Dogs first. It blew me away, it was like nothing I had ever seen before.)

Re: Pulp Fiction.
Pulp Fiction is one of those rare movies which appeal to people who can get a bit higher on their abstract thinking level than average.
You dont watch that kind of movies for the plot, you dont watch for action or for deep emotions. You watch it for absurd fun, for witty dialogs, for style and undefined "something" that just hangs in the air there. You just have to like those kind of movies - where form&style is far more important then content. When i look back at my favourite movies - they are just like that : not much of a sense in plot, but tons of fun to watch again and again. Examples ? Swingers - guys hangin out in LA, hitting on girls Big Lebowski - guys hanging out in LA, going bowling Human Traffic - guys hanging out in UK, going clubbing So, nothing really happens in those movies - but i know every frame of each by heart. Regards M. (sorry if my english sucks...)

Re: Pulp Fiction.
I think it's pretty lame that you're getting flamed for your opinion of this movie.
However, it's a fact that you suck at making threads. Please do us a favor and stop.

Re: Pulp Fiction.
The reason you think that the film is highly over-rated is because it's been duplicated so many times. Interesting dialogue, wonderful acting, unconventional camera shots, and suspenseful scenes wrapped around a storyline that does not force feed you information. That's why you're not told what's in the briefcase. That's for you to decide. Although the main belief is that the suitcase contains the soul of Marsellus Wallace, but other ideas are that the suitcase contains Tarantino's first Oscar, the Elvis suit from True Romance, among other ideas.
Watching the movie for the first time today would not be the same as watching it when it was first releashed. The techniques used by Tarantino have been copied numerous times and I could name a dozen movies that should grant credit to Tarantino. But, to be fair, Tarantino himself 'stole' his techiniques from other directors but puts them together in a way which makes his film unique. A much better review of Pulp Fiction can be found here by none other than Roger Ebert. I hope this puts the movie in better perspective.
