Kill Bill
Buy On Amazon
Perhaps the most compelling evidence that Tarantino has lost none of his precocious genius resides in the title of his latest cinematic offering. Kill Bill. Brilliant!! I predict that rhyming titles will now sweep through Hollywood like some kind of verbal plague, much as pseudo-witty tangential dialogue as a counterpoint to the brutal violence of the characters swept through following Pulp Fiction and people cutting one another’s ears off while dancing followed in the wake of Reservoir Dogs. Within a year, no films will be released unless the two words in their title form a Seuss-esque piece of verse. We witness the dawn of a new era, people.
And how long do you think it will be before that pitiful showpony James Cameron attempts to leap headfirst into the bandwagon with, say, a by-the-numbers remake of The Poseidon Adventure, retitled Flip Ship?
