The movies are going to be split in Europe for whatever reason.

Yeah, I heard. A lot of people are bitching about that, but honestly, you'll probably enjoy each one more because of it. They should have been split here.

Well I just got back from seeing this and it was such a great time. I wouldn't have had as much fun if the movie were split into 2, so I'm glad I got to see them together.

Planet Terror was just a blast, hardly a dull movie. I''m not really into zombie movies but this was just pure fun. It was a packed house too so the audience reactions were funny as hell.

The trailers inbetween were brilliant, especially Thanksgiving.

I didn't think Death Proof was as bad as some say. The very beginning and a couple parts in the bar were slow. I found the second group of women more interesting and the ending was great.

I can't wait to see this on dvd again.

Just got back from seeing this, so thought I would bump the thread.

Awesome. I loved both, and if I ever find for some reason that my leg is amputated, now I know what to do with it. Zombie movies are the only horror movie I can tolerate.

I loved Death Proof, unlike some here, but I've never minded dialog. I just noticed that when the second group of girls were sitting there discussing whatever in the retaurant, it was an entire take without any cuts, and I tend to notice things like that. That impressed me. Something about the girls coming back and kicking his ass, hehe, hilarious.

But why do they have to destroy beautiful muscle cars in movies like this? Gah!

I liked watching them all in one take, though admittedly, it did get pretty long. I can see this thing taking off as a cult classic. I don't know how they would split 'em up, seeing 'em back to back is what makes it the experience it is. Complete with lousy editing and retro trailers. And conveniantly missing reels.

I enjoy his stuff much more when he isn't "The Angry Nintnedo Nerd" and when he acts mature like he does in this review.

I enjoyed Grindhouse alot...the presentation of it and the extras (the previews) were great.

Planet Terror was the best of the 2 in my opinion. It had everything: gore, humor, bad acting. It was alot of fun to watch.

Death Proof wasn't horrible, but I was let down. Tarantino is one of my favorite directors so I was expecting alot out of him since he has done so well in previous films. Some of the parts just annoyed the hell out of me, like the 10-15 minute scene of the girls at the table in the restaurant. What was that all about? The car chase scenes were good, but in the end I left feeling like there could have been more.

All in all Grindhouse was alot of fun to watch. I will definately get it on dvd when it is released.

That's Tarantino, it's to be expected. It happens in all his movies. I found that scene much more interesting than the bar scene with the first group of women...dear god...

Just saw. Loved it. Coolest thing I've seen in a while. There were some parts in Planet Terror that made me gag, though. But it was still hot.

*Mr. Snackpants* · 04-21-2007, 02:40 PM

I think this may be one of my favorite movies ever. I saw it last weekend and have been thinking about how awesome it was all week. I'm going to see it again tonight with some friends, can't wait.

*Rooish* · 04-21-2007, 02:46 PM

Rodriguez's part was a little too gorey for even me, and I'm pretty damn desensitized. Ugh. It had a good plot but it went a little far with it, in my opinion. Tarantino's part was slow-paced, but ultimately very fulfilling. I burst out laughing at the end. I think that makes me a bad person ...?
