OrangeSoul Posted October 5, 2003 Share Posted October 5, 2003 Top WALT DISNEY CO. executives are growing increasingly uncomfortable with the shock nature of films coming from DISNEY's substudio MIRAMAX, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, just as director Quentin Tarantino recommends his new blood-gushing movie to both boys and girls! MIRAMAX honcho Harvey Weinstein retained DISNEY chair Michael Eisner's legal nemesis Bert Fields in a symbolic gesture, foreshadowing a possible split, Los Angeles sources tell DRUDGE. MORE The VILLAGE VOICE last week declared MIRAMAX/DISNEY's KILL BILL "The Most Violent American Movie Ever Made," and the HOLLYWOOD REPORTER warned it "oozes, drips, flows, gushes, splatters... scalps, limbs and heads are freely removed from characters' bodies." If you are a "girl or boy you must go and see KILL BILL and you will have a damn good time... boys will have a great time, girls will have a dose of girl power," Tarantino said this weekend in London. When pressed about his KILL BILL recommendation for "girls and boys," Tarantino explained the film would be okay for kids starting at 12-years old. "If you are a cool parent out there go take your kids to the movie," he told a reporter. A top DISNEY source reveals chairman Michael Eisner has become concerned MIRAMAX is pushing the envelope too far with KILL BILL. "Look, the movie is ultimately a WALT DISNEY concern, we've moved so far away from PINOCCHIO and BAMBI," a top DISNEY source said from Burbank.

Digital.K Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 I am thinking that maybe he knew this movie would be over the top, and he thought he'd generate a little press? From what I have seen,looks good, but kids have no business watching that sort of thing. His comments are just something I believe to spark an interest in the film.

Mousseau Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Q.T. = genious; enough said. Age doesn't matter these days for movies, or does it? Well, whatever. Kill-Bill is gonna pwn!. Yea age does matter...I'm 20 and I sat through Kill Bill, but about 10 40 and 50 year olds walked out about halfway through. This film is neither for the kiddies, nor anyone under 18...its sick, stupidly sick at times, and not 'Sick' in a good way... This movie in no way pwn's, and once you see this film, if you feel as though this film is great! or that QT is a genius, then please, I of beg you, get help...
