nice list!

I think that "Iron Monkey" is defenetly an influece for QT. If you remenber he did a commentary section in the dvd version of Iron Monkey. He talk so much about low budget kung fu films that he use to go to watch when he was young.

didn't they talked about this in pulp fiction. mrs. wallace's pilot... the fox force five? or is it just me 😕

wow..I'm not sure..I haven't seen some of the commentary,I have that movie too..*must go look*

fox force five..I know I got info on that some where in my brain i just can't think at the moment 🙁

I'm sure there was a better topic for this but this has to do with references so I'll post this here rather than a whole new thread.

Its very minor but:
in Kill Bill Buck the Pussy Wagon guy says: "I'm Buck, and I'm here to fuk." or something like that.
in PF the bartender says: "I'm Paul and this is just between y'all." or something like that (again).

I didn't notice this before but I'm sure this was intentional to have a guy make a rhyme with his name like that.

itchi the killer sucks.

the guy needs to get his facts straight

Master of the Flying Guillotine (Jimmy Wang Yu, 1975, Hong Kong). Music from that was used (Super16 by Neu!, the rights were bought), and also the mace GoGo is using somewhat reminds of this.

a flying guillotine is NOT a mace

GoGo and the master both us a Flying Guillotine 😱 🙄 can you believe it?

I totally agree with you Fire. Except, I like Ichi a lot 😄

honestly i think the flying guillitine is a kind of mace but its one of those weapons that are so unique that you just cant really classify them...

It is a mace of sorts, but flying guillotine is just a cooler name ✅

There is one reference that needs to be add it. I belive the music of Il Mercenario (The Mercenary) was used for the

Spoiler:
buried alive scene

some of those didnt really add up, i mean a lot did , but then there were ones where it just had the same "font" or something like that... it didnt really make sense but who knows i could be wrong.. so which speghetti western was playing in kill bills house?

In RD the radio station is KBilly, and in Pulp Fiction Uma tells a Fox Fire Five joke about the tomatoes.

At the end of Hard-boiled an assassin wearing a big white eye patch is in a hospital.

this reminded me of Elle Driver in Kill Bill - is the eye patch a reference to Hard-boiled/ something else/ just an eye patch?

I think that particular song is also from Il Mercenario. I gotta get me the KB vol. 2 soundtrack.

Just curious, was the assassin male or female? I know I've seen pictures of a movie that Elle was based after which had a blonde female that wore an eye patch that matched whatever outfit she was wearing (just like Elle). Don't know anything else about that movie though, not even if the girl was an assassin.

It's been a while since I saw it, but I believe the eyepatch character in "Hard-Boiled" was called "Mad Dog", and he was a tough-as-nails hitman who killed an intern and took his outfit to infiltrate the hospital.

John Woo could have based Mad Dog's outfit on the same nurse on whom Quentin based Elle.

Carrie, the split scene w/ the bride and elle, thats when Carrie kills all the mofos...

yeah thats the character.
which film was the nurse in - any pictures?

According to the link on the "References" thread, the character of Elle is based on the character from this Swedish film:

The IMDb even has KB1 as a reference in its "Movie Connections" section for this movie.
