There was news way back in March that Quentin Tarantino would be pulling together the two Kill Bill movies into one big one. After that we heard nothing. Yet here he is again talking about it.
Digital Spy has him saying…
“I want to cut the whole movie together like one big epic with an intermission in the middle like a 60s film,” explained the iconic director. “It’ll be coming out in theatres.”
“I’ve been holding off because I’ve been working on it for so long that I just wanted a year off from Kill Bill and then I’ll do the big supplementary DVD package.”
According to them he’s set to start working on it early next year for a late 2006 release. Perhaps he thinks we’re getting used to sitting through amazingly long movies? For me the cinema version doesn’t hold much excitement, I think I’d be distracted by serious numb bum syndrome. However, a DVD release would be really interesting to watch, and much more comfortable. The recut work sounds especially exciting, way more than just a sticking together of the two movies.
