Interesting read
A look at the universe in which Quentin Tarantino’s films take place:
As it turns out, Donny Donowitz, ‘The Bear Jew’, is the father of movie producer Lee Donowitz from True Romance – which means that, in Tarantino’s universe, everybody grew up learning about how a bunch of commando Jews machine gunned Hitler to death in a burning movie theater, as opposed to quietly killing himself in a bunker.
I found it fascinating.

I never cared for the Tarantino cheese…but I did enjoy The Bad Lt…which I think he had a hand in, IIRC.
He did swing by The Downtown Brewery in Knoxville a year ago or so while he was in town, and as he walked by spotted an employee with a Resevoir Dogs t-shirt on, and stopped to sign it and hang out for a few beers, which was very cool of him.
It’s good to see hometown kids like he and Johnny Knoxville do well. He should direct the next Jackass movie…that would be bizarre.

But how do you film a Jackass plot in reverse?

Wow, that does make perfect sense.
Also it seems to do well with the mixture of time and technology in movies like Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction.
And I need to get off my ass and watch True Romance, it’s been on my short list for ages.

D’beard said “Wow, that does make perfect sense.”
Really? I guess I don’t live in an alternative sci fi reality.

I assume they would pull the banana out of their ass.

Maybe they call me “Weer’d” for good reason! 😉

People:
Please, Please, PLEASE take all possible measures to keep Quentin Tarantino FAR AWAY from the “Jackass” crowd.
Please.
If they get together, either the Jackasses will kill Tarantino… or he will prevent one (or more) of the Jackasses from getting killed.
Either way, it would be a tragedy of hysterical proportions.
Never interfere with someone earning a Darwin Award. 😉
