Wizard Of Tarantino


Nothing like an old-school Dave Macdowell painting to pull me out of my pop culture slumber. Love this one, especially Dorothy as Beatrix Kiddo. Badass.

The First Casualty Of War Toys Is Innocence

The Toy Story toys have a lot of time on their hands while waiting to be played with. So of course they have taken to remaking classic movie posters and scenes. As one would. (Jim Tuckwell via The High Definite)

Why Am I Mr. Pink?


This is a poster for a live reading of Reservoir Dogs, hosted by director Jason Reitman. Sounds like an awesome show, and I love Matt Owen's interpretation of the movie poster. (Matt Owen via Gallery 1988)

Reservoir Bitches

The Tarantino classic reimagined as a western with an all female cast. I would watch the hell out of this movie. Also, Tarantino really should direct a western. (Jason Quinones for Art Jumble)

Reservoir Zombies


How great would they look, entrails hanging out, shuffling along to Little Green Bag? Coolest zombies ever! Reservoir Dogs by Reza Rasoli for the Quentin vs. Coen show.

Shit! Orange Got Tagged?


"Mr. Orange dying in a 1972 Pontiac Lemans Coupe Convertible" is Tim Doyle’s tribute to Reservoir Dogs for Spoke Art's Quentin vs. Coen show. Here's part of his explanation of his inspiration from Slash Film:
"For me, the whole film is about the bond these two characters form- Mr. White and Mr. Orange. The entire caper, and all the character’s lives come undone because of the tight honor-bond that White has with Orange. Orange took a bullet in the gut and White is going to see him saved come hell or high water. It’s in this car that the seeds of destruction are sown, a pact made in a bloody hand-clasp. And damn, what a car it is. It’s a big honking chunk of US steel, and while it’s not out of place in the film stylistically, it’s a definite conscious decision on the part of the filmmakers."

I Wish Steve Buschemi Were Here


For the upcoming Spoke Art Quentin vs. Coen show Seth Patrick mashed up Donny from The Big Lebowski and Mr. Pink from Reservoir Dogs, and put it on the cover of a Pink Floyd album, of course.


Tarantino Babies


"You ever wonder what Stuntman Mike, Pam, Mr. Pink, Nice Guy Eddie, Mr. White, Mr. Blonde, Vincent Vega, Jules, Elle Driver, The Bride, Bill, Max Cherry, Jackie Brown, Butch, and Marsellus Wallace were like as kids? Well, wonder no more."

Wow, they would eat the Muppet Babies alive. Except for Animal. Baby Quentin would probably give him a feature. (Tarantino Babies by Blair Sayer)

Reservoir Droogs


Dim: Why can't we pick our own colors?
Alex: No way, no way. Tried it once, doesn't work. You got four guys all fighting over who's gonna be Mr. Black, but they don't know each other, so nobody wants to back down. No way. I pick. You're Mr. Pink. Be thankful you're not Mr. Yellow.

Someone is going to be beaten before that argument is over.  (Worth1000 via Super Punch)

Color-Coded Criminals

So Quentin Tarantino has decided to make a third installment of the Kill Bill series. Sure, it won't be for another five years, but why bother, Q?

But instead of contemplating this, I'm looking at fan interpretations of Reservoir Dogs. Above is Color-Coded Criminals by Loy Valera, a Threadless reprint of a bloody scene with Mr. Orange and Mr. White.

Below is the mashup of Reservoir Dogs and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that I never contemplated, but now here it is. Cowabunga, dude! (Link via Forces of Geek)

Muppets Tip When Somebody Deserves A Tip


Mr. Blonde: "You don't have any idea what you're talking about. These people bust their ass. This is a hard job."

Mr. Pink: "So's working at McDonald's, but you don't feel the need to tip them. They're servin' ya food, you should tip em. But no, society says tip these guys over here, but not those guys over there. That's bullshit."

Ya know, I worked a few minimum wage, service industry jobs over the years and it always bugged me about the arbitrary rules over who did and didn't get tipped. (Link via The Daily What)
