    Pulp and Jackie Brown, but I chose the former.

    Andy Smith .....Like a good pinch of snuff......

    'Pulp Fiction' for me too - although I'm surprised that the first Kill Bill is doing so poorly. Bit of a soft spot for that flick.

    Planet Terror I rate highly.

    Maybe because the OP made the mistake of splitting Kill Bill into Part 1 and Part 2. It's just one movie. Faced with that dilemma I chose something else.

    Third act. Something went wrong with the continuity there.

    I cannot consider Kill Bill to be two separate movies, its all one to me. Every so often I set aside a Saturday night and watch the whole thing.

    but I really love the three of them. The first two were instant classics and Jackie Brown a grower; it gets better after each viewing.

    Jackie Brown for me. Terrific film.

    Too difficult for me to vote because I loved Kill Bill vol 1 and 2 equally. I didn't like anything else he did.

    Jackie Brown! Hands Down!

    I can never get tired of this gem. One scene i'll mention is when the camera cuts back to Ordell and Max driving to Jackie, The Delphonics is playing on the radio but they both have a serious look on them, not quite the fitting song for such a tense situation :laugh:

    "my" scene from Jackie Brown is when Forster is back to usual bondsman work at the end of the movie, takes a phone call, quietly informing a mother that her son is in serious trouble. His eyes tell a lot: not only does he probably feel sorry for the umpteenth worried mother he has to deal with, but there's that feeling of loss and melancholy, since he's about to miss the boat (plane (to Spain)).
    That's where Quentin reaches yet another level imo.

    Mine is when Ordell goes round to Jackie's flat, which leads eventually to one of the finest lines in (recent) contemporary cinema.

    I picked Jackie Brown. But Bill and the Dogs are right up there with her.

    Kill Bill time for reassessment, test drive methinks. In my Top Five QT films along with RD,H8,JB &Pulp F.

    Absolutely love Jackie Brown but Pulp Fiction edges it out as it is a better movie.

    Jackie Brown. Kill Bill seems a kind of apotheosis for him too. I did not care for Inglorious; though if the entire film was as good as the opening it might have been the best movie ever made. The first films have not worn well for me. Django was pretty meh. Except again for Waltz's scene at the start.

    I might put Hateful 8 up high. I need to watch it again.

    True Romance - Blu Ray.

    Hans Zimmer score, did Quentin Tarantino ever make a comment on it?

    Reservoir Dogs by miles - the opening sequence during their breakfast is gold!

    True Romance.
    Roger Avary co wrote the script with QT, but he's uncredited, why is that ?
    Also...could Quentin Tarantino have improved on Tony Scott's True Romance..directing the film instead ?
