What's so amazing about this movie? I watched it and there's no real plot line, and the main character dies halfway through the movie. Please enlighten me.

yeah because every movie that doesn't adhere to one single formula is a bad movie. if you hadn't noticed, vincent and jules aren't exactly the main characters of the film, so it's stupid to say "oh this movie sucks because the main character died half way through" when he isn't even the main character (when that became a deciding factor over whether or not a movie is good, i'll never know). it's a film style similar to crash (which was very well received). it's told from various different character point of views to show how the character's story coincides. and if you were smart, you'd realize the story wasn't told in chronological order, so if you actually watched the movie all the way through, you would see that vincent was seen again in the end. dumbass

I like your typing style, it makes your posts very easy to read and understand. I'm going to correct you sentence by sentence;

Just looking up "Movies similar to Pulp Fiction" on google brings up loads of these. Some examples:
http://www.starpulse.com/Movies/2_Days_in_the_Valley-V154569/
http://www.starpulse.com/Movies/8_Heads_in_a_Duffel_Bag-V154845/
http://www.starpulse.com/Movies/American_Strays-V136346/
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110395/

Oh, how I could go on for days.

if you hadn't noticed, vincent and jules aren't exactly the main characters of the film, so it's stupid to say "oh this movie sucks because the main character died half way through" when he isn't even the main character (when that became a deciding factor over whether or not a movie is good, i'll never know).
In your opinion, who is the main character? Any book, TV show, movie, game, even porn flick has a protagonist. It's one of the key necessities of a story. Even Crash, a movie told in the same style as Pulp Fiction, has a main character (James Ballard). When a main character dies in the middle of a movie, it basically kills the essential element I mentioned above.

it's a film style similar to crash (which was very well received).
Oh goodness, this should fit in above.

it's told from various different character point of views to show how the character's story coincides.
As i mentioned, even Crash had a set main character.

and if you were smart, you'd realize the story wasn't told in chronological order, so if you actually watched the movie all the way through, you would see that vincent was seen again in the end. dumbass
I will tell you straight up, I am not smart. I am the lowest form of life in the world, and I will never amount to the greatness that you are. But in this movie, Vincent was not seen at any time after he was killed by Butch. In fact, just to make sure, I watched the whole movie from that very point, and he did not show up in any scene.

Also, even though flaming me surely accentuates your point to where it may just gain back that extra little bit of self-esteem, it's useless and most of the time makes you look barbaric and uncivilized.

If he didn't care, he would not have made his reply in the first place. Easy as that.

People's opinions have been changed here before. I believe Ash was Christian when he arrived. The words are exactly the same here as they would be on a more pertinent forum - there's no reason the location should change their effectiveness once you've found someone to listen.

Edit: 6000th post :)

i see your logic is still just as good here as is was in your marijuana thread.

by the way, i decided to read the last part of your reply which shows you, in fact, did not watch the movie all the way through. if you actually did, you would know that during the final part of the movie, vincent is there. you know, the part where he accidentally kills marvin, and then he and jules confront the british couple trying to rob the hawthorne grille. considering the fact that it does not go in chronological order (but obviously you're too stubborn to see that because you're actually arguing with me on this when it's actually pretty clear if you had seen the movie, like you say you did, dumbass) and that's it is a very famous part of the movie due to the fact that it's the mexican stand-off in the hawthorne ****ing grille

and i honestly believe you make these threads just to disagree with everything everyone says purposely if you are to actually say that crash has a set main character. there are 8 important characters, but none of them can be considered to be less of an important piece to the story arc than the others. just because one character was the first one you saw in the movie doesn't make him the main character. so stop disagreeing with everything i say just so that you can have something to argue about. it makes you look like an idiot.

and i will continue to flame you, not because of how much more superior i may feel towards you (because obviously people like you have to make yourselves look like a victim after you say or do something stupid), but more because you are a clueless idiot who doesn't get it when people explain things to him nicely. you're literally disagreeing with every thing i've said because you think it will help you stay on your side of the argument, but you're honestly just looking like a complete moron right now. i would delete this thread, but i feel it will entertain me just like your marijuana thread

Yeah, I'm pretty surprised that you guys are still posting in that thread whining about me long after I abandoned it.

nobody's posting in there anymore, but we decided to keep posting because we hoped you would come back so we could here more ridiculous arguments. such as giving me the exact opposite of the definition for supply and demand and then posting a link to a wikipedia article trying to validate your claim, only to realize that the article actually gave the correct definition
