So there's a link on MySpace to an interview with Tarantino & Rodriguez where they promise, in all caps no less, that you'll FIND OUT WHAT WAS IN THE CASE IN PULP FICTION.

And do you? No.

Right as Tarantino is about to reveal what was in the case, the video mysteriously cuts out and then cuts back in.

Ha ha ha ha, that's soooo fucking funny.

I liked it better when they did that joke on You Can't Do That On Television and Ross played the closing theme over the kids' voices as they tried to read the recipe for Green Slime.

Grow the fuck up, you fucking cockteases.

Remember that "Lost: The Last Episode" vid I posted a while ago? People like to do that. I'll let M plead her case. Go M... Or Should I call you M-


Utter one more syllable and I'll have you killed.

It's an old joke though. It was even done a few times on SNL in those "It's Pat" sketches. The only time it was acceptable was on "Greatest American Hero" where the main character was named Ralph Hinkley and then John Hinckley Jr. shot Reagan while the first season was airing. For the remainder of the first season, the character's last name was never mentioned and in one episode that was already completed, they dubbed a jet engine sound over his last name when it was mentioned.

Tarantino is known for putting clever dialogue into his movies and when a guy's known for being clever, maybe he shouldn't fall back on the oldest joke in the fucking book.

I just want him to admit that either:

1) He never planned out what was in the case.
2) He's embarassed to admit what was in the case because it's lamer than most of the things the fans have come up with.

Syd, before I respond to you, I just want to tell the good folks at "Artist on Artist"...

GET A REAL FUCKING WEBSITE, YOU CHEAP SONS OF BITCHES!!!

Okay, Syd, first, as QT said it's MySpace. No answers are ever going to be answered there. Second, QT can pretty much do what ever the hell he wants. If he wants pull the ole distraction covers up answers gag - bless him. Hawking could do it if he wanted to...

Let's take a break and imagine that for a second:


Stephen Hawking wrote:

Okay, that was a waste of time. As that Slayer guy seems to like to say:

I don't remember the "answer" ever being hyped. I didn't get any Google headline RSS feed about it, nor did I see a blurb about it in the Journal. I sure as Hey, Dude didn't expect to get that answer now or anytime soon.

As for revealing the answer, QT never has to say what as in the case because as he says it's whatever you want it to be. I bet Travolta has an answer. I bet Jackson has an answer. I bet even Pitt has an answer... Hey, Pitt, what's in the box?

There's a nice random Se7en reference... ew, did I just use the "7" spelling??... Ew Ew Ew, is that a picture from "Babel"!?

What's wrong with that? Oh, wait. I get it. You just want him to say it so people will stop talking about it.

The worse thing it could be is a pair of his soiled undies... Actually, that'd be a pretty cool answer.

But, I'll tell ya what's really in the box.

It's my unsold Miramax screenplay. The reason why it never got made was because it was so good, people were just being blinded and killing others just to hold the briefcase that contained it.

BTW, the break in film is a play on what happens in "Grindhouse". So it's all okay. It's just marketing.

EDIT: I didn't watch the last minute of that interview. I have to say I'm glad Rodriguez pretty much called himself a chickenshit at the end there. Just as long as he knows it. Bell

No, RR fans, I'm not calling him a chickenshit. I'm just glad to turn around this whole debate just to say I'm glad RR admitted to something which was just rumor and speculation before. Much like how Syd just wants QT to say what's in the briefcase. See how this messed up, ADD inspired post came full circle?

You win. And that would be pretty awesome if Hawking did that.

The rumor I always heard was that the briefcase had Wallace's soul in it. In the movie, Rhames has a band-aid on the back of his head. In some ancient culture (I don't remember which one; I heard this years ago...and it's just a fucking rumor) the soul was located in the head and taken out by drilling a hole. Wallace's soul was then put into the briefcase.

That's what I heard too, and I like that explanation the best. That's a fan-based theory though.
