Great read about the movie and it's 30th anniversary. Lots of quotes from cast, producers, etc.

Pulp Fiction is easily in my top 5 greatest films ever made. I was 18 when it came out and I can remember watching it over and over when I was in college. I wore that VHS tape out....

I don't know if any other movie is more watchable for multiple viewings. It just never gets old. The pacing is absolutely brilliant. I honestly don't have any negative critiques of that movie...

The 2-part Rewatchables podcast just done on the movie was great. Very informative about QT and his complete owning of the film and its process.

My best friend told me on a Monday he saw a movie over the weekend that was so good, he wanted to go watch it again. I think he just said it was an action movie with lots of funny parts. I was thinking it would be like Die Hard or Lethal Weapon. I went with him that night and saw it. The thing that I remember being different was the stuff in it that was funny wouldn't be funny in real life, but the way it was told, made it funny.

I had always heard people talk about how great the dialogue in some movies is, but that may have been the moment a light bulb came on, and I knew what that meant. It was like all of the crap Jules and Vincent said early on played out during the movie. It was like my friends and I talked when we were doing stuff we shouldn't have been doing. It was a lot of living by the seat of their pants living, and dialogue that went with it.

Had no idea Kathy Griffin was in it.

Now I love it a little bit less.

It was at least my tenth watch when I realized that Steve Buscemi played the Buddy Holly waiter at Jack Rabbit Slims.

All-time great movie. So many lines I still use constantly.

Pretty please with sugar on top.

I’m pretty frickin far from ok.

If my answers frighten you, you should cease asking scary questions.

Ha! While I do like my namesake movie, it's honestly just ok. It was an obvious rip off of Pulp Fiction and really not the best one of those....

I thought at the time it was a cool name because I did enjoy the movie, but I'm also a big New Orleans Saints fan...

Here is an article about Pulp Fiction "inspired" movies. Boondock Saints is mentioned...

I’m surprised they didn’t mention 2 Days in the Valley as inspired by Pulp Fiction.

It took multiple viewings for this movie to grow on me. I didn’t get it at first. I hated the disjointed timeline. But by 98 or so, it was one of my favorites and still is. It’s my favorite QT film by far.

I was 17 when this came out. Saw it in the theaters. Blew me away. I'll catch it on tv every few years, and it still holds up.

When it came out, I knew my brother in law really wanted to see it. My sister, though, hates violence and has to be dragged to violent movies.

She asked me "He wants to go see the Pulp movie, is it really violent?"

I look over at my bro in law, and he's staring at me wide eyed.

I look back at my sister and say "Not at all. its more of drama than anything."

Man law.

I cant stand this movie..........or any of his movies.

I started watching this years ago...............turned it off. Tried again later because of posts like this............its still terrible.

I dont understand what everyone likes about Tarantino.
