Narrator: I wasn't even born yet
Me: *dies of old age*
No kidding. 😳
It explains his youthful vigor in what culture gaming
They need to make a real Jack Rabbit Slims
I knew it was a set, but only because I had looked up where it was to try and work out if I could maybe visit one day. After finding out it was a set I thought exactly this comment! They need to make a real one! How cool would it be with the car booths and stuff?
@@Live-by2vk really it took you looking it up to find out it was fake. O boy.
I had bought a director's cut of pulp fiction and it had a full menu of the restaurant inside the DVD jacket it was pretty sweet.
I used to say if I ever hit it big I’d build a Jack Rabbit Slim’s. Still would. 😂
I literally say that same thing every time I watch the movie
another reason Tarantino played Jimmy was that Steve Buscemi was originally going to play the role, but he was unavailable. Instead, Buscemi had a cameo at Jack Rabbit Slim's.
And yet I was certain that I remembered Steve Buscemi playing Jimmy lol I guess it really fits him
So he WAS available, in a way...
Personally, I think Pulp Fiction is one of the greatest films of the 20th century.
I don't need an excuse to watch Pulp Fiction, I can never get tired of it. Every time I watch it, it seems like I discover something new that I hadn't noticed before. I like how Tarantino put things in the movie that were clearly only meant to be discovered upon reviewing. Clever tactic, if I may say so myself.
Strangely, I have more of an urge to watch From Dusk til Dawn.
Me too...
It’s fucking amazing
Saaaaame (especially as I've never seen it)
Yeah, Selma Heyak is great!
@@christianlowman2698 Salma. Hayek.
I'm 110% sure Lewis would have killed a guy to get into character for Vega.
And become a heroin addict.
you win the comments for today
I'm so glad DDL was turned down...
Christopher Walken's cameo has me cracking up every time! 😂😂
Dumbest part of the movie 😅
@@EmperorNerox You're familiar with the saying about opinions?
I definitely feel like watching this one again for sure! This is my all time favorite film and it just never gets old!! It’s electrifying!! And a masterpiece!!
I revisit this film on a regular basis. Just like River's Edge, Big Lebowski, & Life of Brian. These are, for me, life reaffirming flicks.
I just watched River's Edge specifically because of this comment. What in gawd's name did I get myself into?!
I just watched Pulp for the first time in about three years. And holy cow this movie is so good I had to re watch it the very next night. Such a good movie so unique and mesmerizing.
The best Pulp Fiction trivia is that The Gimp was a writer for Tiny Toon Adventures and The Animaniacs.
I’m so glad Jenifer Anniston was not cast as Mia Wallace!
I so agree. Jenifer would have brought down that role terribly.
Me too!
Resilience Of A Gypsy
I disagree. She could have possibly went on to star in kill Ross
Terry Peart 😂 that would be a movie I would pay to see
Yeah...after i thought about it . ....it just doesn't seem like it would work ......but it is acting maybe she could pull it off now? ......but i dont think back then but mainly i think jen was already ingrained in people's hearts and head's , branded as America's cuddly tv show "friends" jokester /big sister . .to soft imo...
i say uma was perfect . it would be neat to see some alternate scenes with Fairuza balk or however you spell that......lmao...sorry! Or the girl from 'girl with the dragon tattoo '.... ? Just imo. Fer fun!
I want to see this back in cinemas. I would.
All time favorite film!
I watched this movie on regular tv with the f-words removed. It was a weird experience
Did they use Monday-thru-Friday for any of the mutherfuckers?
@@haggus71 I can't remember - I think they just removed them - and the f words are like 40 percent of the movie lol
it must have about 3 minutes of actual movie dialog
A lot of R movies become horrible when edited for tv.
I did too , late 90s , I'm in my late teens so drunk on vodka at a multi flat/units common room house party , lots of people , so much alcohol and a heavily censored pulp fiction on the tv , it was hilarious and annoying at the same time , ah memories .....
Rosencranz & Guildenstern are Dead is the reason Tarantino was considering Oldman & Roth for Pulp Fiction.
I love how Tarantino utilizes his passion for old movies.
Every time I see/hear something to remind me of Pulp Fiction or Kill Bill (both versions) I immediately feel like watching it again & again & again &... well you get it
I watch Pulp Fiction at least once every year to year and a half. I love learning this kind of stuff. Yes, it does make me wanna watch it again. I love the Mr. Orange/Pumpkin fact. Here's a fan theory for you: What if Mr. Orange and Pumpkin are somehow related. Twin brothers, cousins, I'll leave that to Mr. Brown himself to figure that out.
The song son of a preacher man. Was a phenomenal choice for the movie . I wonder who chose some of the songs for the movie and how they came about..
google it and find out;
1994:
Pulp Fiction, Speed, Forrest Gump, Shawshank Redemption...
2019:
Bad Remakes, Bad Reboots...
Sure, cherry pick the movies from each period. Seems there's more originals back then, but still plenty this year as well
@Alex Jones I wasn't making that assertion, but Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Midsommar, Ad Astra, The Lighthouse...not saying they're necessarily better than PF, just that there are some great originals, which was my original point.
@Alex Jones I think you misunderstood. Pulp fiction is one of my favs, I own pretty much his entire library. But the original comment I replied to was saying 2019 was just a bunch of reboots, I was just saying it was based on cherry picked movies. By the way, Once Upon a Time is also Tarantino, why I included it.
@Alex Jones no worries, I figured as much, and always good to meet a fan!
@Alex Jones also no need to apologize but thank you nonetheless. These comment chains can get pretty toxic and I got none of that from you.
Thank you for this amazing video full of cool backstories about one of my favorite movies.
Who else wants to watch PULP FICTION right now?
Me yrs ago I had it on VHS tape and it got. eaten in the VHS player and I couldn't get another one so I took the VHS tape apart and went in there and cut off the ruined part of the VHS cassette taped it back together with scotch tape! And it actually worked! I only missed about 15 seconds of the movie but it was better than NO movie lol and it lasted for a while 😉
I am just about to start it because it is downloaded to my computer and I have to get off CZcams to watch it. HDMI to my big screen with my movie surround sound system is the way to go.
EVERYONE!
Most of these "what you didn't know" are all fun fact trivias from imdb.
Possibly, but it's more fun this way.
That may be, but the internet doesn't work like a college research paper, although it probably should.
K
Yes but, now I can watch instead of read :-)
@@tommypizzza Lol never thought of it that way 😄
Great detail and I appreciate your knowledge... thank you kindly
Love the video and definitely have a burning desire to watch the movie again!
I’m impressed folks. I expected to know at least 20 of these but several of them were new to me.
I have not seen since released. Need to watch again. Thanks!
Shaft isn't a remake. It's a sequel. Jackson's John Shaft is actually the nephew of the original Shaft whom appears in the first and second Shaft films starring Jackson.
Truly one of my top ten favorites movies ever.
Helena it’s my favorite movie
@@randywhite3947 top 5 for me..at least, maybe top 3
Zach McDowell what’s your top five?
Wow....totally forgot Back to the Future....
Yes II am glad the actors that were in this Iconic movie were the ones chosen ,... they were perfect for the movie and yes I too now want to re watch Pulp Fiction !!! Plus Im now subscribed and liked your video …. so thanks and keep up the great videos !!
Yes. I havent seen this movie in forever I think I rented this movie as a kid when it first came out. So most of it went over my head.
Little Trivia; Dusk Till Dawn, was originally a bank robbery story, but half way through the script, Tarantino and Rodriguez couldnt figure out how to finish the film, got stoned and changed the script into the final film we see today.. God Bless the power of Weed
The guy avoids swearing whilst reviewing a film like pulp fiction
I love the fact that Mr. Fox was at a cocktail party at like 10:30 in the morning, dressed in a tuxedo. For some reason that works better than anything, I could think of.
Mr Wolf
25 things you must of have heard by now about Pulp Fiction.
While I loved the quick flash of Dutch Van Der Linde when talking about the Walken scene, Bruce Willis' character was called Butch, not Dutch.
The first time he does actually say young Butch. It was simply an error in the take and clearly they decided to go with it.
Technically Tarantino wanted Michael Madsen to play Vincent Vega but he got caught up in a movie contract, I think it was Wyatt Earp 1993
Yes I agree it was Wyatt Earp as Wyatt's Brother.
yes and im gonna! i went to see this on first night of release in famously rod up its botty Harrogate. to this day it is the only film where i have witnessed a standing ovation.......truly unforgettable experience!
I just watched pulp fiction today at work and after watching this video definitely makes me wanna watch it again right now.
You watch 2 hour movies at work? Now that's the kind of job I want!
Started the movie at 14:16 and paused it till this concluded lol awesome info bud.
Good stuff Ace..... woke up at 3am and couldn’t go back to sleep so I watched your piece here and now I really can’t go back to sleep 🛌
Another interesting fact that many didn't know was that Tarantino was going to do a Pulp Fiction/Reservoir Dogs crossover where the movie was going to be a prequel focusing on John Travolta & Michael Madsen's Vincent & Vic "Mr. Blonde" Vega
Love this film! One of my favorites!
I want Quentin Tarantino to make a remake of Scarface I think it would turn out amazing!.
There is also the fact that 'My Sharona'' was written by the lead singer of The Knack about his physical relationship with an under aged girl
"Jules originally had a giant afro" i bet the same could be said for Jules Gil.
Saw it 3 times ,, want to see it AGAIN
Great film amazing director. It's a classic. 🎬
Pulp Fiction is absolute cinematic magic.
Calling boondock saints a pulp fiction knockoff? That's a paddlin
I just showed my cousin that Simpson's clip last night while her kid was misbehaving. Paddlin' the school canoe, oh you better believe that's a paddlin'!
@@DaveSomething cool!
Agree
😂😂
Great reference but it’s true
Pumpkin and Honeybunny ranks alongside Saving Private Ryan for one of my favourite opening scenes of all time.
Did you seriously just say, "Thankfully now we have computers" about something that happened in 1994? Seriously? We had computers we had word processors we even had spell & grammar checks. The fact he didn't use one was a personal choice.
He wasn't born
He probably thinks the scripts were delivered by carrier pigeon too...
The British are coming the British are coming, and their bringing the script to pulp fiction with them.
we even had...internet!
Yes computers and internet existed in 1994 (unlike the narrator I was alive back then), but to be fair they weren’t nearly as prevalent as they are today. The vast majority of people in 1994 lived their lives without the internet and with limited if any interaction with a computer. Especially a personal one. Kind of how like electric cars exist today, and they will probably be ubiquitous in 30 years but as for right now only a small handful of people own them.
6:54 is without a doubt the best genre of music.
-a-delic
Parliament
P-Funk
Funk-A-Delic
@@earthlingjohn gutted i've only got one person understand this shit.
He probably saw her Aniston feet and wanted to cast her lmao
how you gonna talk down on Boondock Saints, that movie is FANTASTIC sir!
I do have the urge to watch it now!
Michael Madsen's Mr Blonde (Vic Vega) and John Travolta's Vincent Vega are brothers
That was fantastic!
Still my favorite lullaby movie...
...i only knew 2 of these ...whattaya know, a whatculture video title that's actually accurate! ...will wonders never cease!
Some new trivia I was not aware of...nice
Im sorry. But did you just throw shade at the boondock saints, scrublord?
Was wondering if anyone else caught that.
Right? Tf?
was just about to comment that, boondock saints slaps
@@RandomlyAwesome28663 somebody call the saints
Hurr Durr it’s not bad, but some of it is really cheesy
Thank you! This video was superb
Man, I love Gary Oldman! I wish he had appeared in some other Quentin Tarantino movie :(
“ it’s a chopper babe “
@Fist Finger haha one more in a long list of classic lines.....
Are you sure you've seen the movie? Even a typo like "a young Dutch" should have stood out to anyone who's actually seen it.
For jennifer aniston at least her decision to do friends instead was a good idea. That show made her insanely rich and famous more than pulp fiction would have.
rich, perhaps. but famous, you're inherently wrong.
@@tomosheax You don't think Jennifer Aniston is famous? What is your criteria for famous?
@@stevepwood not to say she isn’t famous, but pulp fiction is undeniably far more so
You weren’t even born when Pulp fiction came out?!! Now I feel real old
I love this movie but this video is the icing on the kehk
Me to, want to watch it now once again :D
Interesting! Thanks....!
If you look closely during the dance scene, you can see Brave Heart Lion and Playful Heart Monkey from the Care Bear Movie dancing in the background
I could not help notice that when Tim Roth is called "pumpkin" by his girl friend, the restaurant booths are orange and just happen to look like pumpkins.
Amazing
Easily my favorite movie ever
I loved the coffee scene between Tarentino Jackson and Travolta.
Phil-lum.
It's great that that kid managed to play two different characters, Butch and Dutch. Were they related?
When doing a list of great movies from 1994, how can you forget "Natural Born Killers"? I remember seeing Pulp Fiction and NBK a week apart at the theater, and thinking that movies had entered a new era of quality and coolness. ;-)
The entire world knows Tarantino's first choice for Vincent Vega was Michael Madsen. Everyone except you apparently.
Tim Gavin I know right! I forget why he didn’t do it? Was it Free Willy?
@@michaelberry1382 I heard (though I can't remember where) that it was meant to be a reprisal of Mr. Blonde and his death scene would establish this as a different universe from Reservoir Dogs. That wasn't the case.
@@michaelberry1382 Madsen was committed to do Wyatt Earp: QT wrote the Vega part for Madsen
Another great Disney flick from that era
Love this movie
Whats more interesting about the chevrolet malibu is that is was also the car used in Reservoir dogs
I remember that Jurassic Park and Sleepless in Seattle premiered on the same day as well.
Who else noticed the Wilhelm scream at the beginning? Quentin uses that in damn near every movie he does
All I know is you guys better explain what exactly is in the briefcase by the end of the video
Everybody knows it's an Oscar for best screenwriting.
It's a lightbulb.
Marcellus’ soul innit? Sold it to the Devil and he’s getting it back.
Elvis's gold suit
It’s Marsellus Wallace‘s soul
Who else wants to watch it now 👍
Yeah, I am going to watch Pulp Fiction right now.
I also heard, around the time of release, that Uma Thurman originally turned down the role but immediately changed her mind when she realised that she got to dance with John Travolta.
You forgot Marcellus bandaid was actually because vig rhames actually cut himself shaving before filming the bar scene with Willis. Vig was gong to remove it and have makeup cover it up but Tarantino said no and for him to keep the bandaid... hence the bandaid in that scene! Brilliant
I have always wondered if Wallace changed his mind about letting Butch go once he found out that Butch killed Vincent Vega with Wallace's UZI that he left in the kitchen when he went out to get Coffee and Donuts.
“Motherfucker!” 🚗 💨
@@wattsnottaken1 yep
or he might have accepted/realized that Vega was a bell-end and it was best that he be 'relieved of his position'
Yeah, I would kind of like to watch Pulp Fiction now myself.
Phil Lamar is also Aquaman in the Injustice games
And Samurai Jack!
@@AngryLittleGnome _Gotta get back, back to the past. Samurai Jack._
its a massive story on tarantinos going to epstiens island a far few times ,just like other big hollywood stars and directors
Interesting that Gary Oldman/Tim Roth were almost cast as Jules and Vincent. In 1990 they played Rosencrantz and Guildenstern in a comedy about Hamlets two friends called "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead". Their characters were very "Jules and Vincent" like, and of course they were both english. Coincidence?
quite possible he saw it and got the idea for a 'criminal take' with his having worked them influenced the (re)casting...
Being a 'Functional Illiterate" as the woman described him I could believe that after 3 years he forgot who the leads were; especially with Oldman 'disappearing' into so many of his roles
Loved Roth in Lie To Me
I just finished watching The Shawshank Redemption before watching this !!
“Young Dutch”..... what??
Yeah, the character is definitely named Butch. But they had that quick pic of dutch from Red Dead...
so idk if its a mistake, or a bad joke that makes no sense lol
@@TheSinjab It's all good. He's American--our names don't mean sh*t :)
I stopped listening after you blatantly said Boondocks Saints is bad....
