While I really enjoyed Pulp Fiction and it does have some great memorable scenes and lines...I really feel it has not aged as well as I thought it would. I recently watched it again and was kinda ok...been there done that.

Yet Reservoir Dogs is always fantastic and has aged great.

Thats just me though.

Funny Im the other way around. Reservoir Dogs is a one and done for me. Good film not great. Pulp Fiction is timeless.

I think your issue on this specific point isn't with the fact that he was tattooing himself but rather you felt the tattoos were of too high quality for a self taught individual using homemade tools.

Again, that really doesn't seem like a big issue to fault a film for taking artistic license.

It is both. They were seemingly pretty high quality for a guy who had to reteach himself every day but also the needing to reteach/rethink the knowledge to assemble said tools and prep himself for tattooing. I only watched the movie one time but I do recall him remembering some things with no problems and not others. When the hook of the movie is a guy who can't create new memories.... you can't have him creating new memories. The movie has to remain internally consistent otherwise it is just a mess. Cool idea - poor execution.

Can't create NEW memories. Everything he did before the accident, he could recall. Like knowing how to make a tattoo device at home.

I think you should have watched it more than once.

So jailhouse tattooing with household items is common knowledge? That is just the tip of the iceberg.

I didn't need to watch it more than once... I saw a ton of flaws the first time through.

I appreciate your perspective on this to a degree I just don't view it as some huge movie wrecking flaw. I think I need to watch it again now.

I feel similar, but not exactly the same reason. I think I am just less patient scenes that I don't think work as well. blueberry pancakes and jimmy's coffee are scenes that I will space out during, or just flat out fast forward through. Personally can't rank it as an all-time great if I am doing that. This second, I would probably have Pulp Fiction 4th of Tarantino's movies, about a decade ago I might have the movie in my top 10 favorite movies.

The ones he did himself were garbage and obviously self applied. The ones he had done at a parlor were obviously much better. He didn't create new memories.

"John G. raped and murdered my wife" (backwards and bad) self applied

"Find Him and Kill Him" (forwards and good) tattoo parlor

Very clear contrast between tattoo parlor work and the ones he did himself.

Christ... *learning* how to create some jailhouse tattoo kit is creating a *new* memory.The step by step process of learning how to tattoo oneself is creating a new memory.

Finding what you are looking for in some huge file is creating a new memory. Knowing that you have said file to reference is creating a new memory. Remembering to take pictures of someone with a camera (unless he always took photos of people prior to his injury) is creating a new memory. He has to *remember* that he has a camera and a file, and where to turn in the file, and how to get back to his hotel, and a boatload of other things that he just shouldn't know or remember to do. I feel like I need to watch it now and take notes of all the times he knows to look for pictures in his pocket or how he doesn't have to reacquaint himself with some huge file. Yes, he has tattoos... but, IIRC, he is clothed most of the movie.

The guy creates an entirely new set of rules to live by... but these rules are rarely visible. I don't recall how long he could remember something - but it wasn't very long.

dammit... I find this conversation boring as hell, but I can't resist.

as has been pointed out ad nauseum... a skill learned previously- like the knowing how to move your hands (eg: to make a tattoo)- isn't a "new memory". applying your logic- he wouldn't be able to walk, eat, talk... new memories and all.

So he previously learned how to make his own personal tattoo kit? He knows what sort of ink works, he knows how to prep for the tattoo in the first place, he knows he has supplies specifically for a tattoo, he knows how to tattoo himself? Let's assume that prior to his injury he was a master of self tattooing with common household items - it still doesn't explain the other things I mentioned.

It clearly shows he is not a master but someone knows how pens work and can carve something onto his skin halfassedly.

most days I would put I.B. above pulp. far less quotable, but a few of the scenes in basterds are some of the best I have seen in years. tails off at the end, but the opening scene and the bar scene are simply amazing.

Those are two awesome scenes and the film is pretty solid but I find it to be much more uneven then the first three on my list.

i get that. pulp is more even tonally, but I find a couple scenes annoying now. basterds is uneven tonally, but contains some of the best stuff Tarantino has done. like I said, most days I would give basterds the slight nod.

I didn't enjoy it, but at the same time they weren't trying to make high art.

I give movies more of a pass if it seems to me "bad" was wghat they were going for.

I don't even think it was the worse Grindhouse movie.

Incorrect. These are not "new memories". And yes, he did forget about his motel room, just like he forgot about his appointment, until he was writing himself a note when he found out he was getting charged another room because he couldn't remember. He keeps starting over in the file. He doesn't remember how to get back to the motel. When he undresses, he stops to read all the tattoos.

He was an insurance investigator - taking photos was already his thing - not a new memory. Doing it to solve the murder from the clues tattooed is not a "new memory" even if it is new behavior.

I'm not saying this film is sealed tight free of any plot holes, but you'r definition of "new memories" is off.

Love your list. And the bolded is the best Michael Caine and Steve Martin roles ever.

"Excuse me but may I go to the bathroom…………..thank you".

"Oklahoma, Oklahoma, Oklahoma!!!!!!"

"Oh Lady Fanny from Omaha"

I could go on and on and on. Brilliant comedy.

Yeah, I've always thought this was a massively underrated comedy. I still bust up at the scene where Caine is whipping Martin's legs to test his sense of feeling no matter how many times I see it, or the Navy guys who abduct Caine after the dance scene. Great stuff.
