[QUOTE="Kai Lord, post: 1173834, member: 3570"] Okay, so as far as Quentin's motivation, I can see it not being solely about money. Not so sure with Harvey Weinstein. Note that neither of them stated it was cut because "it was too intense" which was the amusing assertion that I originally countered. Lucy Liu says she thinks it'll make people puke and suddenly Richard Roeper and dozens of people on the internet are jumping on the wagon and making claims like the one in your previous post. The violence isn't why it was split in half. Lucy Liu didn't direct or edit the picture, and she certainly doesn't have final cut. What she thinks about the violence is irrelevant. I do believe the other articles you linked paint a better picture of why it was divided. Quentin wanted to make it long for the sake of making it long and "epic", and Weinstein will do anything to make him happy, especially if it means doubling the studios profits, regardless of how blatantly tacky it is to the ticket buying audience.
