[QUOTE="Beat_Dominator, post: 2823462, member: 560107"] Ok, first off you need to have the right expectations when you go to see the movie. It is designed for movie buffs first and foremost. You'd need to imagine going to see a movie in Bum Fu[COLOR=Black]ck[/COLOR] Texas, or Alabama.... or any state with tiny hick towns with a roadhouse or something. Now imagine it's about 1974 when they had pornos and movies with sub $10,000 budgets in theaters. Situations like that really existed, and they were hot, run-down theaters where there was no "projectionist" working there so the film is all degraded and the equipment is run down. Now add in the '70s slasher movies and that's what you get in Grindhouse. You have purposely added miscues with the actors as actors in slasher flicks sucked, and you have funny errors where people call a character by the wrong name, kind of like they forgot their line. It is all of the subtle errors and the not-so-subtle gore that made the movie hilarious to me. I do not fully expect everyone to "get" it. Especially younger people that have grown up on a steady diet of modern high budget movies. [/QUOTE]
