2 PM showing, 15 minute intermission, back to the car just before 7 PM... that was an experience!
The changes are actually pretty minor:
-
The anime sequence that provides O-Ren's backstory is extended, showing how she got her revenge on the assassin who killed her parents, not just the boss who ordered it.
-
In the original fight with the Crazy 88, she does an eye pluck and the rest of the fight is in black and white, this cut remains in color for the full run of part 1.
-
Part One ends right after The Bride's speech to Sophie, "And I want them all to know they'll soon be as dead as O-Ren." Break for intermission. No cliffhanger.
-
Part 2 opens with the Church scene, a recap of part 1 not being necessary.
-
Added material after the end credits including a new scene set after the killing of Vernita Greene showing the end of the Pussy Wagon. Gogo's sister flies to L.A. for revenge.
That whole sequence is weird as it's, not kidding, animated in Fortnite and seems to follow Fortnite violence rules. Uma Thurman does return to do the voice of the Bride though.
Overall, it's a good flick, but I think I like the original versions better.
First, the second movie also has sequences in black and white, and because the big fight scene is now in full color, there's no precedent for the B&W footage, it just kinda comes out of nowhere.
Second, the cliffhanger at the end of part 1 is epic, it seems criminal to cut it.
Third, Fortnite? Seriously? They couldn't even be bothered to call the Pussy Wagon "Pussy Wagon", it's "😸 Wagon".
Edit The Fortnite clip is on the Fortnite YouTube channel:
I’m cracking up did they seriously add a Fortnite after credits scene? I couldn’t find any clips of it.
Yuki's Revenge on IMDB, rocking a predictable 5.6 score.
Here's the trailer on YouTube. I haven't watched it with sound, but the art style is horrendous. Bloody shame.
I just want a proper, no bullshit live action Kill Bill 3 with Uma Thurman where a now grown up daughter of Copperhead comes back for revenge. Is that really too much to ask.
oh i figured it was just vaguely in the style of fortnite. But no, it’s an official fortnite tie in meaning QT sold out his film. what a shame.
Yeah. It's hard to stomach.
I only hope he got a shit ton of money and raised it to spend it on something more worthwhile. Maybe it's a way to gain independence from the major studios.
Maybe. But I feel like he just sold out.
Oh well—it's not worse than the Weinstein company.
