I think Planet Terror was the better movie, but I liked Death Proof alot too. I think Grindhouse as a whole would have been a better product if they had collaborated more and had some continuity between the films. Rodriguez went very modern where Tarentino went very retro. Planet Terror is very fast paced where Death Proof is very slow (dialog overkill), following Planet Terror with Death Proof really killed Death Proof for alot of people.
That being said I still think Death Proof is a good movie. I really loved the concept of Grinhouse, I just think they fucked up on the execution.
I hope they really do make Machete, I keep hearing rumors. It will be awesome.

Definately Deathproof since I sold 2 of my 1969 Dodge Chargers to Tarentino for use in that film. I loved those cars so it was sad to see them get destroyed but I was stoked to see them imortalized in one of the greatest car chase scenes ever filmed.

I have to agree with you on everything, except Machete. I wouldn't want to see that.
Yea why DO you not believe this? Seems less probable that someone would bother making this claim in a porn webmaster forum if it wasn't true doesn't it. Anyway I can easily prove it if someone wants to throw some money on the table...

death proof was a horrible movie, planet terror was great.
How about perfect casting. Actors you at least recognized.
Rose was perfect...nuff said.
El Ray-That guy should have a future in films but I don't think Grindhouse will be another St. Elmos Fire.
Michael Bien's a familiar face who was just convincing all round.
Jeff Fahey anyone.
Josh Brolin is the man to play in a remake of the Shining.
His blond wife was awesome when she destroyed her wrist in the door handle.
El Ray riding the mini cycle and Fahey saying "shame"
Thats what I like about all of Tarrantino's movies, The diologue, its stupid, its witty, it strikes a chord with that random thought you once had and thought to yourself, who else has thoughts like this. his movies however campy, always some some sense of realism.
And that car chase scene with Uma Thurmans stunt double was great.

Death Proof all the way! That scene where they shoot Stuntman Mike and he falls apart like a little baby always makes me laugh.
According to the internet movie sources they are working on Machete.The release date is currently set for 2010 with Danny Trejo cast as the title character just like in the trailer. I hope it pans out. Rodriguez seems to be a bit more interested in doing the live action version of The Jetsons right now from what I've been reading.
Ever seen "Wheels of Terror"? Early 70's charger plays the lead in that one. It's kind of like if "Duel" met "Christine".
I'll have to rent Wheels of Terror sometime but as passionate I am about '68 and '69 chargers I really don't like the '70 and later models, they really fucked up the body style in my opinion...The downfall of the American car started in '70 -RIP Chrystler

I liked Planet Terror more, just because I hated the characters in Death proof, and actually cheered during the car accident. I couldn't stand those chicks, they got on my nerves, probably because QT has no idea how women talk to each other. After listening to 45 minutes of them blather on about pop culture bullshit and that stupid dare to do a lap dance, I was happy to see their bloody limbs flying through the air. The second group of girls annoyed me even more. Do we really needa 10 minute scene of two dummies arguing about playing "Captain's Mast"?
I liked Deathproof better overall. Kurt Russel was so cool (and that smile at the camera made me Lol!).
There was something else going on in this movie. You KNOW what the story is about. You KNOW that Kurt's character is fucked up. You KNOW that the girls in the first part are going to die. When the car crash happens, you WANT it to happen (if it didn't, you would have been disapointed!). The crash is almost... orgasmic..!
The dialog goes a long way too into making these characters believeable. You KNOW these people...
I like Josh Brolin's character and acting in Planet Terror. Robert Rodriguez did a fine job of directing it, but there there were problems with it. The Blood looked fake, and they didn't go nearly far enough on the gore. (Remember George Romero's Dawn of the Dead? The blood still looked fake but WOW was the Gore cool!). I didn't give a damn about any of the characters. None of the actors (except for Quinten) had any FUN making this movie. Where were the jokes?
The fake trailers were ALL GREAT, and I would love to go see feature length versions of all of them.

Rodriguez sounds like he is fucking up lately. I heard he was producing remakes of both Red Sonja and Barbarella and putting Rose MacGowan in the lead for both movies. Red Sonja I think they've paused and the studio put the breaks on Barbarella and told him he needed to use Jessica Alba or they were shutting the project down. Haven't heard anything about barbarella since so I think that got keboshed.

I'm all about 60's GM muscle cars myself, have a 67 Skylark GS in the garage so i'm partial. There are only a few muscle cars that I think were interesting post 70, the Riviera Boat tails are pretty slick, but I agree with you.
I think for Wheels of Terror they used a 71 or 72, where they had the post in the center of the grille, and did a little custom welding:
Just read something that said it was a 74. Either way, not somethign I would have in my garage, but still a movie car I can appreciate.

That Skylark is a sweet machine too, lucky you! Yea that looks like a 70 or 71 charger from the grill, they made it look a little meaner though by bringing it together in the center, that movie looks like a must rent. One thing QT understands is that cars are characters and he puts a lot of thought into casting vehicles as if they ate supporting actors.

Planet Terror by a slight edge but loved both of them
As a huge fan of Grindhouse Cinema, I loved all the nods and tributes. Every time I watch each segment, I find more and more that I missed.
I got death proof on the shelves .. however keeping my eyes out for Planet terror .. my fav of the two .. hot chicks, guns, zombies and a kick ass gravy what more can you ask for
Thanks Man. I've had her since I was 20. She's still a primer beast, but finally coming together. The body's pretty straight, I'm working on putting in the third engine now, but the real challenge has been the interior. When I got the car the interior had pretty much been ripped out. Year One catalog helps, but 67 wasn't a real pop year so I've spent alot of time working with junk yards trying to find stuff, like pillar post moldings- what a bitch to get those, ha ha.
