I know QT's more of a Star Trek fan, but during the whole Man from Okinawa chapter, all I could think was "This is meeting Yoda in Episode V!"  Also, I wouldn't call it a reference, but I noticed a whole lot more formal-balanced compositions in the movie more than any other QT.  Surprisingly it was shot by Robert Richardson, who did Casino, which PTA ripped off a lot (in a good way) for BN.  Just a "what-d'ya-know" kind of thing.

NEON MERCURY

not a reference but "something cool that you can look for the next time you watch vol. 2".

-the "paula grave scene".her open casket reveals her decayed body w/ an outstreched are doing a shadow puppet of a rooster/chicken



that is all i noticed.........i suck..

tpfkabi

i noticed the hand gesture, but i thought it was a peace sign
I am Torgo. I take care of the place while the Master is away.

bill said "once upon a time...in china", and Jet Li's comeback film in hong kong was titled "once upon a time in china."
"Tragedy is a close-up; comedy, a long shot."
- Buster Keaton

El Duderino

Bill said "I'll shoot you in the kneecap, and i hear that's the worst place to get shot."

Mr. White said "The kneecap and the belly are the two worst places someone could get shot."
Did I just get cock-blocked by Bob Saget?

Bimbo is an actual brand of bread in Portugal. They make the most pitiful comercials ever.

"In Serbia a lot of people hate me because they want to westernise, not understanding that the western world is bipolar, with very good things and very bad things. Since they don't have experience of the west, they even believe that western shit is pie."

really?  didnt know that...thought it was a blonde joke, given bill's love of blondes...nevermind then

El Duderino

Admin edit for *SPOILERS*



also, i thought it was cool to see that when the bride was in her couffin, and she got the razor out of Budd's boot, Mr. Blonde takes out the same type of razor out of his boot in Reservoir Dogs.

Budd's boss says, "I need you like I need an asshole, right here", then points to his elbow.

The same dialouge occurs in Rules of Attraction, directed by Quentin's buddy Roger Avary. Wonder if he'll be pissed?

Funny how I thought the exact same thing.

Kal

Bimbo is everywhere... and I think the same company owns a big company in the USA but they didnt use the same name for the product for obvious reasons...

Alethia

never heard of it before...it aint widely distributed in my area

A Matter Of Chance

I just noticed this in volume 1, but during the anime when O-Ren is under the bed and the two guys are shooting at her, there are some false light leaks like in Pulp Fiction
