  • It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that in 1994, Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction revolutionized popular cinema. While 1992’s Sundance breakout, Reservoir Dogs, made Tarantino an indie icon, Pulp Fiction made him a household name, spawning a “cool crime” genre that dominated the second half of the decade, even as the director himself moved away from the genre. The movie revitalized the career of star John Travolta, whose career had bottomed out in the nineties but soon became a $20 million a film A-lister, and put Uma Thurman on the map in a pretty big way. It also gave Bruce Willis some street cred as a movie star willing to dip his toe into indies while also making Samuel L. Jackson one of the most iconic character actors of our era. In this episode of WTF Happened to this Movie, we look at the making of Tarantino’s crime epic, from its humble origins, casting hurdles, development with Miramax, controversial Cannes’ Palme d'Or win and more.

    Pulp fiction is a masterpiece, end of story. Perfectly acted, and perfectly written. My favorite movie of all time!

    I'm really impressed how a 16 minute Pulp Fiction video essay was pulled off without copyrighted music, only using royalty free CZcams tracks and it was still absolutely on point. Good work by your editors.

    It's amazing how far Tarantino has gotten without going to film school

    Bruce Willis was always the same character until he met Quentin Tarantino.

    Whenever I see a title “whatever happened to” I’m assuming it is a movie that has been forgotten or something. Absolutely nothing has happened to pulp fiction. It’s a classic and people who know movies appreciate it.

    This film made a whole generation of young men go out and buy a Samurai sword... oh wait, that was just me?

    How do you not mention that Mickey Rourke was considered for Butch but he refused to even read the script because he was focused on wrecking his face in the boxing ring.

    This was my first rated R film to see in theaters. My dad and I saw it together when I was 13, and on that day, I fell in love with film as an artform.

    Tarantino and Avery seem like they’re on good terms again. I attended a midnight screening of Pulp Fiction at Tarantino’s theater in LA and they both unexpectedly showed up to watch the film.

    I can't grasp how a movie with at least 4 A- list actors is considered an Indie film.

    Walken's Watch monologue is arguably the best movie cameo of all time.

    Pulp Fiction is the 2nd movie Ving Rhames has dealt with someone in a gimp suit 😆. "People under the Stairs" then "Pulp Fiction".

    I think the reason Bitch went back to save Marcellus from those rapists was because deep down he saw himself as the kind of man his father was. That is someone who wasn't willing to leave his friends behind to suffer a horrible fate as a tormented captive as his old man was, even if that person is his worse enemy.

    The most controversial thing about Pulp Fiction is that a 5 dollar milkshake is now a pretty good fucking deal.
