Having seen this movie, let me give you my review:

Planet Terror: I'd describe it as a zombie movie on steroids; it's filled with enough blood and gore to easily make anyone under the age of 13 get reminded of what they had for dinner last night. (But if you fit into that category, aren't you breaking the rules?) Fortunately, a lot of it is laughable gore, and things get a bit steamy, which is just as funny when you see what happens as a result: Spoiler Below And it all wraps up nicely at the end. For me, this is easily the better film of the two.
Death Proof: If I knew what I was in for when this movie began, I would've left the theater right when it began. It has the problem a lot of Tarantino movies have: too much idle talk, not enough action. Seriously, 45-55 minutes of talk about how this person misses their boyfriend, or that person almost fell in a ditch, etc. and only 15 minutes of any actual action? How about you make me feel less sympathetic for Kurt Russel's character instead of showing me a bunch of talking heads? At the end, I felt bad for his character, and angry at the girls. Bad job, Quentin. Bad job. You get a D-.

What did you think of the mock trailers?

I thought the mock trailers were awesome. They were short, but funny, demented, and by far the most innovate and amusing part of the film. It was such a great idea and they really came out looking good if you ask me.

The funniest one was easily "Don't" but my favorite one was definitely Eli Roth's "Thanksgiving". It was extremely gore and extremely stupid at the same time, with an awesome grainy look to it, looking just like an old slasher movie.

Like it came right out of the age of "Friday the 13th" films. Btw, for those interested in this, Robert Rodriguez was originally going to have Machete be apart of the Planet terror portion of the film but ran out of available air time.

So, Rodriguez is going to actually make the Machete movie into a direct to DVD film.

same here >_>

I had zero faith in this movie based on previews. But I really love Kurt Russell and I heard Edgar Wright did a little something in this picture. So yesterday I go to see it and to my surprise, I loved it. It was just too much fun.

Anyway, there is no reason why this movie should've been beaten by Are We Done Yet? I mean come on! Blades of Glory, I can understand, but by a mediocre sequel to a mediocre comedy, both remakes of films no one remembers? Ouch!

8D There is in me, but I love over-the-top stuff like that anyhow, so it's understandable for you to not have any interest in it.

I personally really like QT. Yeah, his recent movies CAN be over-the-top at times, but once again, I like that kind of cinema. It's like watching a campy moving comic book. That's where the fun of it comes from. If we all went to the movies to see a realistic, talky story every single time, we'd all be bored as hell.

Even "talkier" flicks such as Jackie Brown and Pulp Fiction still have the cocky attitude of his recent films, so they're still fun to watch.

Sadly, the god awful "Are we done yet?" had more going for it as far as "advantages" opposed to Grind house. Grind house is rated R, which already sets a limited audience bar, R rated movies usually don't rank in big bucks because of the rating.

Second, much like how "King Kong" lost to "Narnia" last year, Grind house is 3 hours long and that kills any replay value because people aren't usually thrilled to go see a 3 hour movie more then once, sometimes it's that kind of running time that makes people not want to go see it.

Plus, both "Narnia" and "Are we done yet?" are kids films, mostly anyway. The humor is geared towards younger audiences, which is an easy dollar making scheme right there. Kids drag their parents to the movies all the time and that alone has a powerful attraction factor because your not only paying for kids, but the adults who get roped into seeing it as well.

Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz) made the "Don't" fake trailer in the film. Fellow fake trailer maker Eli Roth popped up in "Death proof" also. That was actually my favorite of the 2 fims, Tarantino's film. But I do admit, at times the talking got really dragged out of hand.

The first set of girls I didn't mind their conversations, they really helped set up some key elements in the movie. But the second set of girls REALLY drolled on and on for me. Plus, the key part is supposed to be Kurt Russell, since he is the car serial killer here.

I think the movie seriously under used him which is a shame because he was magnificent in this film. Russell has like never played a bad guy and he just kicked ass here, I really think he deserved more air time because he gave a great performance as Stuntman Mike.

I want Don't as a full blown motion picture. Complete with Will Arnett doing the narration as he did in the trailer. "If you're thinking........of going...........into the basement..............DON'T!" For some reason that was just too hilarious.

"It's blood."
"Son of a b*tch!"
