Aggressive Tarantino fans? I'm shocked.
Kill Bill, Tarantino's latest, has received a lot of hype. And the marketing has been pretty up front about how the flick is divided into two volumes, the next set to release in February. Hence this release being "Kill Bill: Volume One." However, that doesn't seem to be sufficient warning for some people. Or, just one person actually.

IMDB user She-she has been trying to rally the message board troops into boycotting Kill Bill on account of, well, her own blatant stupidity. And I quote:

Do you want to be taken advantage of and exploited in a scheme to get Americans to Spend Twice the money to see one movie?

According to the replies:

Yes, now shut the fuck up kthxbai.

Needless to say, the troops are not quite rallied. Included in the responses (of varying intelligence yet unanimous in their opinion), we have:

"damn hippy. why don't you go grow some hemp and sing "we shall overcome" in a circle with a joint hanging out of your mouth."

"We'd rather that whiny idealist po-mo-anti-capitalist-anti-corporation-and-the-like not see the movie at all. It's better that way."

And some dude saying that we should boycott for another reason. Um, because Shelly Long wasn't cast as The Bride. Yep, I'm sure her and Uma were neck and neck for that role.

I read through more than half of the replies and I didn't see any spoilers, but I can't be sure. Just to be safe, if you want to remain pure (which I highly recommend for this movie), you might want to stay away until after you've seen it(which I also highly recommend.)

	I didn't read the whole thing, because I have not yet seen Kill Bill (though I plan to), but what I did read was a very amusing wank. LOL Finding wank on the IMBD boards is like shooting fish in a barrel. I love those guys. <3 (Reply to this)

	I've seen it (GO! ALL OF YOU! DO NOT TAKE YOUR LITTLE SISTER!), so I felt free to peruse the board. Only to watch every. single. person. compare the vol. 1/vol. 2 split to the Lord of the Rings and The Matrix triologies. Do people not read the other comments before throwing their own idiocy in? They're also all clearly incapable of typing a response to the correct poster. (Reply to this)

~_~ I already had the fucking movie spoiled for me by that cuntrag Roger Ebert. Seriously, Roger, everybody knows that the Bride survives to make it to volume 2. NOT EVERYONE WANTS A LONG, DETAILED LIST OF EVERYONE SHE KILLS ON THE WAY. (Jesus fucking Christ, I'm pulling out the angry douchebag insults for him. >_<) And on top of all that, we couldn't get into it last night since my sister lost her ID, so we had to go see Lost in Translation instead. Which sucked. So much. Now I am anger-filled and OT.

Good wank, tho'.

	The movie couldn't have been made into one because it would have been too long. Sure, it would make $$$ that way, but most movies do that. Was this person by any chance complaining about the Lord of the Rings? Somehow I doubt it. (Reply to this)
