Which Grindhouse did you like better?
Rose McGowan and her machine gun shootin' leg ftw.:ak47:
|
I thought there was no competition..I'm a huge Kurt Russell fan, but how can you top scenes like Quintin Tarantino's nuts rotting off :)
|
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. |
Does anyone remember the grindhouse ad we ran in AVN for Eroticy and Swappernet? I think it was my favorite ad I've ever worked on. :)
|
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 preferred the Thanksgiving trailer. Those decapitated heads reminded me of my teens. Sigh...
|
I finally figured out who Josh Brolin is.:Oh crap What a character.:2 cents:

death proof was a horrible movie, planet terror was great. |
Death Proof for me.
I liked the lapdance scene with loads of tension and the Russ Meyer tribute. |
Death Proof was ok, Planet Terror was awesome

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.:1orglaugh Michael Bien's a familiar face who was just convincing all round. Jeff Fahey anyone.:pimp Josh Brolin is the man to play in a remake of the Shining.:mad: His blond wife was awesome when she destroyed her wrist in the door handle.:helpme El Ray riding the mini cycle and Fahey saying "shame":1orglaugh This movie was a little piece of brilliance. |
Hard to decide... Rose McGowan is damn hot but I think Zoe Bell (the aussie that rides the hood of the car) is the coolest stunt chick around..

And that car chase scene with Uma Thurmans stunt double was great. |
The trailers were pretty good too...
ADG |
I love both of them.
|
deathproof was the best of the two for me but planet terror was also pretty cool.
anyone knows if they are doing the machete movie? (the fake trailer in the grindhouse) |
I'll watch and tell here... :D
|
I thought they were both good, but Death Proof was more of an original story.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh exactly what I was thinking but hey cool for you if you did Death Proof for me cause I love fast car type movies but the other is good too |
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. |

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. |
Both movies stand up on their own merits, so it's really hard for me to choose one over the other.
So I'm going to say "fuck you" to choosing and just say both. And am looking foward to any new ones of this ilk coming down the pike. |
Planet Terror without a doubt. Watching the lovely Rose McGowan use a machine gun as a leg was brilliant.

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: http://www.imcdb.org/images/014/167.jpg 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.

'Death proof' because I love muscle cars!

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. The trailers were entertaining as hell too As for Machete: http://www.joblo.com/arrow/index.php?id=17097 |
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
|
I enjoyed both. I hope they do Machete. Danny Trejo is bad ass.
|
Both seriously rocked, but I am drawn to Zombie or at least all fucked up what ever the fuck they were in Planet Terror.
|
That boy's got the devil in him... Planet Terror ftw |
Rose McGowan is DAMN sexy!
