  Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead. :)
Current song : [Miss Murder by AFI]
Gaah! Mati2 aku ingatkan Davey Havok ni perempuan! I love his voice. My kinda voice, y’know, those macho types sebaris dengan Robert Smith dan Joel Madden dari Good Charlotte (in their previous albums anw).

This entry is made after I’ve watched that short film “Tarantino’s Mind”, link given by my online buddy, Faust aka Marcelo from Brazil ~ one of the mod at my favourite Prison Break forum (he makes awesome icons and wallpapers! And the one that introduced me to the whole twisted world of Dexter Morgan) Thanks Faust! :) Btw, for those of you who wants to see the video, do check it out at the recent comments in the previous post. Sorry, I don’t know how to put the link to Google videos :P Also because I just can't wait to watch Grindhouse. Arrgghh!

May contain major spoilers, so beware! :)

Macam tau2 aku nak membebel pasal QT, bila siri NCIS episod malam ni membuat reference kepada filem QT favourite aku. At first there were this references to JackRabbit Slim. And apparently, today is Abby’s birthday, and she thought that her boss had forgotten it. He didn’t. And he even surprised her with a present on her desk (which she didn’t even realized when the hell did he sneaked into her office because she’s been busy with work all day), and when she opened the box, there was a glow of light that shines to her face. Still shocked, she said “This is just like Pulp Fiction!”. I think I got that stupid grin on my face, because my hubby looked at me like I’m some kinda idiot :P

(Filem2 ni termasuk yang diarah, dilakonkan DAN skripnya ditulis oleh QT, so mungkin ada beberapa filem QT yang aku suka, tapi tidak diarahkan oleh QT eg From Dusk Till Dawn, Natural Born Killers dan True Romance).

Some of my faves and whatnots of Quentin Tarantino.

My favourite couple - Seriously, aku takleh nak decide between Mickey & Mallory Knox (Natural Born Killers) atau Clarence & Alabama dari True Romance, sebab dua2 couple memang brutal. Kalau diberi pilihan, aku suka watak Seth Gecko dan Kate Fuller di penghujung filem FDTD, but nah, I don’t think that’s gonna happen.

Favourite male characters – Well, terus terang aku katakan, memang susah nak memilih antara banyak2 karakter bad-asses dalam filem2 QT, tapi aku paling suka Harvey Keitel dalam dua filem iaitu sebagai Mr White dalam Reservoir Dogs dan The Wolf dalam Pulp Fiction. Macho, selamba dan sangat2 sarkastik! Tak lupa juga Mr Pink lakonan Steve Buscemi dalam Reservoir Dogs yang kedekut, tapi kelakar! As for on-screen buddies, I’d go for Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield (dari filem Pulp Fiction). They’re like, the coolest bad-asses ever.

Favourite female character – Of course Beatrix Kiddo aka The Bride aka Black Mamba. Honestly, aku lebih suka Kill Bill Vol 1 berbanding Vol 2.

Least favourite character – No offense to Tim Roth’s fan (including myself), tapi aku paling2 menyampah tengok karakter dia dalam Four Rooms dan Reservoir Dogs (especially masa lepas kena tembak kat dalam kereta tu). Overnya! Juga Sophie dari Kill Bill.

Filem QT pertama yang aku tonton ialah From Dusk Till Dawn (arahan Robert Rodriguez). Seth Gecko (lakonan George Clooney) ialah watak badass yang paling macho masa tu, dan tak lupa adiknya yang psiko, Ritchie Gecko. Dan filem seterusnya yang aku tunggu2 sejak lepas Kill Bill ialah bukan Grindhouse, tetapi Inglorious Bastards, which turns out to be released in 2008.

Scene yang membuat aku hampir tersembur air ke TV – Kali pertama kita di bawa ke kelab malam Titty Twister, dan babak pengenalan oleh Chet Pussy (fark, aku pun segan nak tulis kat sini :P)

Salah satu watak yang agak over the top yang agak menjengkelkan ialah Ted the Bellhop lakonan Tim Roth dalam filem Four Rooms. Dan ironinya, aku paling kurang minat segmen arahan QT (The Man from Hollywood - waaaayy too much cussin’, man). Segmen faveret aku dalam filem ni ialah The Misbehavers. Kelakar, tapi agak disturbing (kids watching porn (T&A!), needles and a dead prostitute inside the mattress) wtf? . Oh, aku baru je perasan reference kepada foot fetish beliau dalam segmen ni, di mana si kakak menyuruh adik lelakinya mencium kakinya sebab nak tau dari mana datangnya bau busuk dalam bilik tu.

My favourite ensemble from a film ~ The cast of Pulp Fiction. Pic from wallpapers.dpics.org

Lagu kegemaran aku dari filem2 QT ialah Stuck In The Middle With You (Stealers Wheel) – kedengaran ketika Mr Blonde menyiksa polis yang menjadi tebusan tu. (Ear cutting scene!!!), Dark Night oleh The Blasters (opening credits from the film From Dusk Till Dawn), After Dark – Tito and The Tarantulas (babak Santanico Pandemonium menari dengan ular + foot fetish QT = Holy guacamole!), dan heh, siapa boleh lupa Misirlou dari Dick Dales & His Del-tones ! (Opening credits Pulp Fiction). Hmm. I’ve heard snippets of the songs from the soundtrack of Grindhouse dan nampaknya QT masih mengekalkan lagu2 yang ‘sepesen’.

So, any fanboys/ fangirls in the house ? I’ll bring the pie! :)

Sha:

Dalam KBV1, akak suka lagu whistle masa Elle Driver nak bunuh The Bride (masa dia tengah koma) dan lagu apa ntah tajuknya (woohoowoohoohoo ~ ada group ala2 nyah masa The Bride sampai kat The House of Blue Leaves tu).
 
maser dok ostel dulu, ader sorg budak chinese nie yg dok satu row with my bilik suker whistling that lagu whistle tue. bess, tp kalau dah tetgh mlm tue.. creepy jugak laa. hehehe

Unless you're Beatrix Kiddo, there's no reason to be scared! :)

Don:
Filem Grindhouse. Arahan bersama ngan Robert Rodriguez. Check it out kat imdb.com.

PS: Ironinya, aku macam tak berapa gemar Bruce Willis dalam PF. Tapi babak dia selamatkan Marsellus Wallace dari terus disontot oleh Zed dan rakan kongsinya, pergh! memang fulamakatak! Heh, not to mention The Gimp !
 
WOHH..!!

Somehow I just knew you were going to write about my fave director after watching TM.. hehe.

Nice one Zack, tapi mungkin berbeza sket here and there dgn kesukaan aku.

Fave couple - Clarence & Alabama or Bill & Beatrix (..skrip NBK dah banyak diubah oleh Oliver Stone, so aku rasa filem u dah jadi filem OS bukan tulisan QT)

Fave male character - hands down.. Drexl Spivey in TR. Gary Oldman is the coolest actor EVER!

Fave on screen team - Vincent & Jules of course. But DiVAS do come close..

Fave female character - Jackie Brown. She's hot.

Least favourite character - Elliot Blitzer. Annoying.

Fave scene - Too many.. but the Sicilian Scene in TR is top class. Also every scene with Jules & Vincent.

Fave Song - Misirlou and Urge Overkill's 'Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon'.


..all of this of course, with the exception of Grindhouse. Somehow I get the feeling that Stuntman Mike is going to be my fave male character..
 
out of topic :

dah tgk Heroes 19..?

...like WHOA!!!
 
Edd: Episode 9? Dah tengok. Nanti aku rebiu :)

Drexl Spivey ? You mean DA PIMP?!?!?! Haha, tu memang bad-a$$, tapi aku rasa ayah Clarence lagi cool sebab sanggup mati drp bagitau kat mana anak dia. :| Oh yeah, Elvis oso.

DiVAS : Kalau diorang tak betray Beatrix Kiddo, mungkin boleh jadi the coolest team. Heck! They'd be my fave bitches! (Aku suka O-Ren Ishii, btw. Dia punya pep-talk just after beheading mamat yang komplen pasal dia tu, like, wtf? She's one helluva lady!

Jackie Brown: Aku nonton filem ni masa kat ITM dulu, one of my ex's recommendation. Banyak gak aku dah lupa, except for Sam L Jackson's freaky hairstyle.

As for Grindhouse, man, aku tengok ada satu still gambar Rose McGowan pakai lipstick atas katil hospital dengan sebelah kaki takde, I was like, cepat la keluar bootleg!!!!
 
cepat la keluar bootleg

err bkn dah kluar kat torrent ker? I've downloaded it, dah abes dah pon. tp bkn any near dvdrip quality la, but still watchable. xsempat ndak tgk lagik (credits to incik assignments)

ps : hows your blk kg? sronok? ;)
 
Alamak! Dah ada ke? Tapi kalau kualiti tak best, tak syok la tengok, macam DVD Black Snake Moan yang akak beli hari tu. :(

PS: Balik kampung? Sigh....
 
hmmm better hold on and wait some more. yg dvd rip quality raser tadek lagik.

ps : why the long face? xjadik blk ker? hows the book fair. byk memborong kak? hehehe
