ALL the things KB references, into one thread? Can we consolidate them all here?

Bride’s Yellow suit – Game of Death Bruce Lee
Music before HOBL – Green Hornet – Bruce Lee
Masks on Crazy 88’s – Green Hornet – Kato – Bruce Lee
Pai Mei – Pai Mei
Hattori Hanzo – Hattori Hanzo
Bill Playing the flute – He made it and played it in Circle of Iron
Bride injected mosquito – Mia injected Vincent Vega - gasp and sit up straight
I should have been Black Momba – RD “You get four guys fighting over
who's gonna be Mr. Black”
Bride’s Feet – dialog about giving Mia a foot massage
Bride makes a square – Mia makes a square
Coffee – every movie has coffee RD, Pulp Fiction
Buck Fvck – My name's Paul, and this is between y'all.

The cigarettes.

Come on folks, there are so many more.

Red Apple Cigarettes billboard 😄 That was so great...and I think It's Sophie on the poster

Volume 2
she takes a blade out of cowboy boots - in RDogs mr.blonde takes a blade out of his cowboy boots.

Its the same type of shaving blade too.

From the IMDb:

...when the Bride and Bill are talking, Bill says that he hears a gunshot to the kneecap is quite painful. In Reservoir Dogs, Mr. White says to Mr. Orange, "Aside from the kneecap, the gut is the most painful area a guy can get shot in."

Michael Madsen stands in the doorway of his trailer and strikes the same pose as he does against the pole in Reservoir Dogs.

On the wall in Bud's trailer hangs a poster for Mr. Majestyk (1974). In True Romance (1993), written by Quentin Tarantino, Drexl calls Clarence "Motherf*ckin' Charlie Bronson. Mr. Majestyk."

Elle Driver wears the same outfit that Uma Thurman wears in Pulp Fiction (1994). It was also worn by Pam Grier in Jackie Brown (1997).

Quentin Tarantino has confirmed in interviews that the "Deadly Viper Assassination Squad (DIVAS)" was inspired by "Fox Force Five", the fictional television show that Mia Wallace (Uma Thurman) filmed in Pulp Fiction (1994).

Buck, the male nurse who lets his friend in to have sex with The Bride says "Are we absolutely clear on Rule #1?" This same line was used by George Clooney in From Dusk Till Dawn (1996).

As the detectives walk into the destroyed wedding chapel with bodies on the floor, the radio starts. Before it gets to the right song, someone can be heard singing "Donde Esta?". In the Reservoir Dogs (1992) torture scene, the same sound bite is heard before Mr. Blonde changes the station to K-BILLY.

Buck (the nurse) has the same "Elvis" sunglasses as Clarence Worley in True Romance (1993).

Vernita Green complains about being given a codename she doesn't like. Mr. Pink had a similar argument in Reservoir Dogs (1992).

Daryl Hannah's character is called "Elle Driver". The production team for the documentary Full Tilt Boogie (1997), a documentary about the production of From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) (starring Quentin Tarantino) and the people who made it is also called " L. Driver Productions".

And those are just the references to other Tarantino films....

how about the choice of names for bill and budd? could that be an allusion to the book billy budd?

This is a visual reference:
It's from Hiroyuki Nakano's Samurai Fiction

It looks a lot to the fight in Charlie Brown's restaurant where The Bride fights with the Crazy88
And also when The Bride is trining with Pai Mei (in a red background).

This is the most obvious. Mr. Bruce Lee in The New Game of Death ..

And my favorite... Kenji Misumi's Shogun Assasin (it is mentioned in KBV2)...

This is a lot like another scene in The Bride's training at Pai Mei's. However, I've seen a lot of scenes like this. The good thing is that Gordon Liu is in this one.

I forgot the name of the previous film: Fits and Guts and is directed by Liu Chia-liang.
****************
And the last one. Tarantino says he loves Takashi Miike's films. This is a little gory but I suppose that if you like the KB movies you MUST be cool with gory pics. Anyway, this is from "Ichi, The Killer" and it looks kinda similar (not that much) to the final scene in Charlie Brown's restaurant.

BTW; i found out that the guy who plays Charlie Brown is the writer of "Ichi the Killer". His name is Sakichi Satô

The joke told by one of the Crazy 88 judging by the actions is the same as the one told in Killing Zoe.

note: Vernita only says she should have been called Black Mamba, due to the fact that she is black. She doesn't complain about her current codename.

What si the joke told by the crazy ** and told in Killing Zoe?

the hanzo sword is the same one used in Pulp Fiction when that man gets kidnapped by the rapist people

What are the symbols on the Hanzo swords, Uma has a Tiger, Bill has Dragon or Darth Maul, What is on Budds?

an inscription from bill? i'll go look 🙂

yup, i've checked the scene with it in.... and all i can see is "too my brother budd.. etc" 🙁 anyone know anything else?
