Kill Bill, the moment I saw it, instantly became the worst movie I have ever seen. I would never have believed that something this horrible could even be made by someone not mentally retarded. Nothing can save this film from the horrendous monstrosity that it is. But, in the world of film, the golden rule is Make Crap And They Will Love It.

"it's distinctly anti-climactic" That's how I feel about all the death scenes in Volume 2. Which is probably my only reason for preferring Volume 1 to 2. The deaths in Volume 1 were so absurd, but oh so grandiose, that it just made the film. Volume 2 lacked that.

Do all of you Kill Bill Vol. 1, Vol. 2, and entire epic haters realize that Kill Bill is a ***COMEDY***? You are supposed to be laughing your a$$ off when you see the absurd violence (Arms getting chopped off and blood spewing from the body like a fountain...are you kidding me? That's comic genius) In fact, you are supposed to laugh throughout all of Volume 1 AND Volume 2. There are only a few "Serious" parts. Even the end of Kill Bill (or, as some of you would say, the end of Kill Bill Vol. 2) is funny. Everyone's problem here is that they are taking this story seriously. It's is SO freaking OVER THE TOP that you are supposedly to simply laugh at this fantasy world. If you don't get it, you don't get "Kill Bill."

Tis' my humble opinion Kill Bill Crapola Volume Shit 1 was so God-awfully bad, that it revealed just how poor of a director Quentin Geek Tarantino truly is......It's not just bad, but stunningly bad. It is so bad, that only children raised on comic books and TV could ever really enjoy it, and even then if their taste bordered between idiotic and moronic and A-Team Fan Club President - and proud of it!..... Kill Bill Crapola Volume Shit 1 was sofaking BAD, that I have not the least bit of interest in seeing Kill Bill Crapola Volume Shit 2 - did I get the titles right?

Thanks for your ignorant blog. Obviously you know NOTHING about what Kill Bill is. It was ONE movie split up into two. In fact, there are rumors that the entire Kill Bill epic will be shown all at once in indep movie theaters later in the year. For you to call Vol. 1 "Kill Bill 1" shows how much you know. Volume 1 was meant to be this Kung-Fu story, and in Volume 2, the story shifts from east to west, and so does the storytelling (from Kung-Fu movie to Speghetti western). It's brilliant. I am surprised many people don't see that. Just remember, it was never meant to be two movies. Simply one brilliant film, which it is.

The thing with the name was just odd. The whole first movie, they bleeped it. Then in this movie, you hear "Arlene" and think, "Aha!" but then, after that, they still beep the name (which clearly doesn't start with a vowel), and you realize that "Arlene" was a fake name she was using. When they finally reveal her real name, complete with a cute but strange classroom flashback, it's distinctly anti-climactic. And what the heck, her real name is [beep].
