[QUOTE="Tarrasque Wrangler, post: 1137428, member: 7473"] If movies in the midwest were free with complimentary Junior Mints, and Californians had to pay $20 a ticket and the movie didn't come out in theaters until midwesterners already had it on DVD, I STILL wouldn't move to the midwest. No offense, but the midwest is going to have to offer me a heckuva lot more than cheap movie tickets to give up Cali. [/HIJACK] Well, the rap on Kill Bill is that Miramax loved the film the way it was, but was having a hard time justifying a 3+ hour movie to exhibitors when Tarantino's last film didn't exactly rake in the proverbial phat lewt. So rather than ask Tarantino to trim the film (which Harv promised him they wouldn't ask him to do) they reached this compromise with the two volumes. Now my wallet balks at paying twice to see one film in its entirety, but at the same time, I'm looking forward to seeing this film untouched by studio edits. I'm getting kinda tired of waiting for the DVD to see what the director had in mind. [/QUOTE]
