Exciting news movie enthusiasts! It appears that the Grindhouse may become a series of films! A little birdy from Slashfilm gives us the news:
Rodriguez and Tarantino want to keep the “Grindhouse” series going. For his part, Tarantino wants to shoot an old-school Kung Fu movie in Mandarin with subtitles in some countries, and release a shorter, dubbed cut in others. If the movie plays to theaters packed with screaming patrons, the Weinsteins may be willing to indulge him.
This is fitting, this is exciting, this is the best thing to happen to the theater going experience since THX sound! I loved the Pai Mei character in Kill Bill and think that Tarantino would be great to do a 70’s style kung-fu extravaganza. In fact, I hope he does the film with the Pai Mei character – I left Kill Bill 2 hungering more Pai Mei and It would tickle my vilolence loving bones if we saw him again.
I an a fan of both Tarantino and Rodriguez, and think that having them work together may cause a friendly competition of who can get even more over the top that the other. Nothing does over the top better than kung ku – I am now more excited to see the second installment of Grindhouse than the first.
International friends; I hope this series goes to 11.
