Edit

Entry The weapons Butch goes through were all put in by Tarantino as an homage to some of his favorite movies of the past. The bat represents the four by four that Bufford Pusser used in "Walking Tall", the chainsaw was for what Leatherface uses in "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre", and the samurai sword was used in general to all old kung-fu movies.

Edit

Entry Quentin Tarantino originally wanted to cast himself as Lance (Vincent's drug dealer), but eventually cast himself as Jimmie because he wanted to be strictly behind the camera during the scene of Mia's drug overdose.

Entry Vincent Vega doesn't have much luck with bathrooms: He emerges from the bathroom at Mia Wallace's place to find her overdosing. He is heavily criticised by Jules in Jimmy's bathroom for soiling the towel. He emerges from the bathroom at the coffee shop to find a robbery is occurring. After he shoots Brett, a guy comes out of the bathroom with a "hand cannon" and tries to shoot him. Finally, he emerges from the bathroom at Butch Coolidge's flat and is shot dead by Butch.

Edit

Entry Vincent and Jule's discussion in the car about Europe and especially Amsterdam can be linked to Quentin Tarrantino's love for that city. He used to visit Amsterdam a lot and even lived there for awhile. All the stuff Vincent tells Jules about Amsterdam is true by the way.

Edit

Entry Phil LaMarr, who plays Marvin (the black guy, who gets shot in his face) is actually a member of the "MadTV" cast. Once MadTV had a skit called "Gump Fiction" (a crossover of "Forrest Gump" and "Pulp Fiction" - you gotta see this skit. Very funny.). In this skit he also plays Marvin, fearfully cowering like in the movie.

Edit

Entry Quentin Tarantino must have had a childhood bully by the name of Marvin.  In this movie the black guy who gets shot in the face is named Marvin.  In Reservoir Dogs, Marvin is the name of the cop Mr. Blonde tortures.

Edit

Entry Kind of funny thing to notice. In the end credits, the Coffee Shop Manager is credited as just Coffee Shop. Quentin Tarantino said this was because when Tim Roth puts the gun to his head and says "Are you gonna be a hero?", the manager only says "No, I'm just a Coffee Shop-" before Tim Roth cuts him off and starts yelling again.

Entry The clocks in the pawnshop are set to 4:20. It is a widely acknowledged misconception that all of the clocks in the film are set to this time. Submitted by Cubs Fan

Entry A scene removed from the final cut of the film involves Jules trying to consider what to do while Pumpkin and Honey Bunny are robbing the diner. In the scene, Jules points his gun at the bottom of the table and fires up twice, hitting Pumpkin and killing him. He then spins around and shoots Honey Bunny three times, killing her. As she falls to the floor her gun goes off and hits the long haired Yuppie scum, who dies screaming on the floor. The scene then cuts back to Jules talking to Pumpkin in the diner, revealing the shootings to have happened entirely in Jules' mind.

Entry The Statler Brothers song that Bruce Willis was singing along to on the way back to his apartment had a line "smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo". In the movie Die Hard With a Vengeance, there's a scene in which he tells Samuel L. Jackson that he'd rather be home "smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo".
