I just came back and let me say: Wow.
Planet Terror is far better then Death Proof, though Death Proof wasn't bad. PT featured Rose in her hotest role and god with that gun leg... just wow. She pretty much captured the movie (in both. Though blonde Rose wasn't as fun.)
I don't want to give anything away, but a few highlights were:
- Fergie's appearnce in PT as the lesbian mistress
- Tarantino's characters in both films
- The fake Trailers
'Hobo With a Shotgun' will make you laugh to death. The entire film is just filled with action and humor, and yes Death Proof is slow for the first half hour as we follow Sydney Tamiia Poitier's character (some will know her as the short lived teacher on Veronica Mars). But after her part is 'finished' and Rosario Dawson's story line kicks in, it all makes up for it.
Go see it now!!!

I saw the director on Craig Ferguson and Craig asked how Rose was supposed to shoot the gun, like how she pulled the trigger. The guy kind of blew it off, because they clearly hadn't thought it through. He just kind of said that she does. I guess in the movie she just picks up her leg and it fires. It's kind of funny. Craig Ferguson always thinks of the practical side of these things.

Craig Ferguson always thinks of the practical side of these things. I've been wondering that too. Cause she kind of just shoots it with out touching it. Like she just shot out a missle to fly into the air almost like she did it with her mind. The way I think she does it is its like connected to her stub and if she clinches or presses down or something, the gun fires... Something like that... Or she uses orbs

Film gun laws, obviously. Kinda like how Bruce Campbell can fire three shots out of a double barrel shotgun in Army of Darkness without reloading.

Sorry to bump an old thread but I had to let you guys know about this. I was reading Total Film Summer 2007 and in there it says that British viewers will have to watch Grindhouse in 2 parts because it didnt do well as expected in the States, and they need to make some money back, therefore splitting the film in half and charging us twice!?!
