my favorite Pulp Fiction trivia !

just watched pulp fiction with perusu in his cheapy studio...
oh enjoyed QT's touches here and there... some trivia that i read after watching it :

* Pulp Fiction is now #11 on the IMDb Top 250.

* The part where vincent gives Mia the adrenaline shot was filmed
backwards, because if Travolta would have done that, he would've
like broken her rib cage.

*
Whenever Vince goes to the bathroom something bad happens ?
~ Vincent goes once and is killed.
~ Vincent goes once and Mia overdoses
~ Vincent goes once and Hbunny and Pmkin begin to rob the diner.

*
In the scene where they give Mia the adrenaline shot, we see the
board games "Life" and "Operation" sitting outside the bedroom door.

*
When Butch goes to get the watch, a news report on the radio is
saying how there was a fight at Jack Rabbit Slims, which resulted
in the trophy being stolen. So Vincent and Mia didn't win, they
just stole the trophy.

*
Ezekiel 25:17 doesn't say ANYTHING about the path of the
righteous man, finders of lost children or the tyranny of evil men.
"I will execute terrible vengeance against them to rebuke them
for what they have done. And when I have inflicted my revenge,
then they will know that I am the LORD." (Ezekiel 25:17 NLT)

* When Mia and Vincent are arriving at Jack Rabbit Slim's,
Uma Thurman does not use the word "square" but instead moves her
fingers in the shape of one (rectangle!), QT highlights it by actually
drawing the square on the screen.... Uma Thurman does the same
thing when she is speaking to Vernita Green in Kill Bill vol 1 but the
square is not highlighted.

*
The bullet holes in Marvins apartment are visible already in the
wall before the guy fires.

*
If a redneck appears in a Quentin Tarantino film, he's going to
rape somebody. (Also see Kill Bill vol 1)

*
Jody is introduced talking about body peircings with a needle,
she is the the witness to the ultimate pierrcing... to the heart, which
was "nippy".

*
The cigarettes that both Mia and Butch smoke are 'Red Apples' -
a made up brand to cut down on product placement. There is a big
advertisement for the same brand visible in 'Kill Bill'.

*
Zed's chopper says 'Grace.' Grace was the name of Tarantino's
girlfriend at the time of this movie's making.

*
The samurai sword used in the movie, belongs to Michael Madsen.
Quentin asked to borrow it. It also appears in Kill Bill.


Also, the sword is found in PF in the pawn shop and in Kill Bill, there
a reference of a sword being pawned.

*
The woman shot by Marcellus is the same woman who shot
Mr. Orange in RD. This woman is Tarantino's high school film
teacher, who had a large impact on his career as a film maker.

*
In the credits, the coffee shop manager is only credited as coffee
shop. This is because he's cut off in his line
"I'm not a hero, I'm just a coffee shop-".

*
Uma Thurman originally turned down the role of Mia Wallace.
QT was so desperate to have her as Mia, he ended up reading
her the script over the phone, finally convincing her to take on
the role.
