I loved both film, and look forward to seeing the two film on the screen together.

Sure it’s a money grab, but so what?

With all the crap that’s passing for cinema these days I would love to revisit this masterpiece once more.

You used the phrase “make their living” when “make their riches” would be more accurate.

kill bill 2 is a better movie (in my opinion). kb1 does have much better fights but feels pretty shallow as a movie. i look forward to seeing the single movie. i agree about it being a money grab but don’t mind going to pay to see it again.

i just watched Vol. 2 on sunday. and hafta say i agree with campea. altho i don’t know that i “hated” it, but it wasn’t full of the visual flourishes, exciting fight scenes that i had expected after loving Vol. 1. it was so talk-y and i got bored listening to the long-drawn out stories of Bill and some of the other characters. everything was so sloooooowed down. the fight with Elle was fun, tho. and by the way, i was sure we’d see the gruesome outcome of Sophie Fatale at the beginning… but nope.

Can’t say I disagree with the “money grab” viewpoint.

Already they’ve earned double what they would have by splitting one movie into two, and now they want to cash in yet again. I’m sure that a third release won’t get nearly the box office of the first two though.

I remember a while back Tarantino mentioning in an interview something similar for milking the DVD side as well when he stated that there would be a I, II, and then a double set which would contain extras not available in the singles.

I am really getting sick and tired of studios trying to get me to purchase the same movie two, if not three times.

What it ends up doing is making me not buy a movie until 9-12 months have gone by, since I just know a “Special Edition” will eventually be forthcoming.

Hated Vol 2? That’s too bad. I did enjoy Vol 1 more than 2, but I think they are both great. Two very different movies but both great in their own way.

I thought Vol 2 was the better of the two, personally. It was more quintessential Tarantino. Vol 1 was more action packed, and he did a great job on the fight sequences, but they didn’t have the classic Tarantino elements. The dialogue, the details, the atmospheric elements.

I know this all-in-one release is just a way for the studio to see how many times they can get people to pay to see the same film. And after they release the all-in-one version to theaters, they’ll announce it on DVD, so some people will have seen the movie twice in theaters and own it twice on DVD. But I actually enjoyed the movie enough to see it twice in a theater. I don’t, however, see the point in owning it twice, so I’m waiting for the box set or director’s cut or whatever before I buy it. Until then, I’ll just borrow my friend’s copy.
