"Pulp Friction" (season 5, episode 17) If you remember this episode solely for the Quentin Tarantino party — a stone-cold classic set piece, if only for the background actors doing the Pulp Fiction dance — you will have no idea why I placed it so low.
I've always loved this one scene in Pulp Fiction as a case study in applied mindfulness: Shortly after performing a kidnapping, gangster Vincent Vega, played by John Travolta, of course, accidentally blows the head off the victim sitting in the back of his car.

Mr. Willis, whose film credits include the "Die Hard" series and "Pulp Fiction," had purchased the apartment for nearly $73 million from Wesley Edens, an owner of the Milwaukee Bucks basketball team in 2015 — just as he was selling another Central Park West apartment, No. 300.

Where "The Daughter of Dawn" interprets Native American culture according to the precepts of 19th-century American melodrama, "The Return" simultaneously embodies the white supremacist attitudes of early 20th-century pulp fiction ("Tarzan" springs to mind) and, a particularly graphic buffalo slaughter notwithstanding, the countercultural romanticism of the 1960s.
There's that horror movie; the Star Trek film that's supposed to be "Pulp Fiction in space"; and, on top of it all, the guy is apparently already thinking about recutting Once Upon a Time in Hollywood before the original version even has a shot at winning some Oscars.
According to popular lore, the hit song got its name because it reminded listeners of a gang fight, or at least a musical invitation to one; in "Pulp Fiction," it's the tune that plays while Uma Thurman and John Travolta share a $5 milkshake and a tense silence.

Like, for instance, Quentin Tarantino, whose Pulp Fiction doesn't just inspire the film's segmented, nonlinear, everything-is-connected structure — it's also saluted onscreen via the Vincent Vega and Mia Wallace costumes that Will (Isaac) and Abby (Wilde) wear for Halloween and an opening voiceover from Samuel L. Jackson's Jules Winnfield himself.

If you're familiar with the movie Pulp Fiction, you know that "Le Big Mac" stands for "a Big Mac" and that when French people want to order a Quarter Pounder with Cheese, they ask for "Le Royal with Cheese"—the last resurgence of a monarchy we beheaded more than two centuries ago.

Yet as the film progresses, its gratuitous peppering mostly recalls the hideous scene in Pulp Fiction in which Tarantino cast himself as a slacker with a black wife just so he could repeatedly say, "Do you see a sign in my house that says dead-nigger storage?" to a cowed Samuel L. Jackson.
But in the same way that the Maltese Falcon or the "Pulp Fiction" briefcase are meaningful mostly through what people do in their name, Bobby's predicament — moronically described as "Defcon 6" by his unctuous, hilarious compliance officer Ari Spyros (Stephen Kunken) — enables an entire cast of characters and guest stars to shine.
Starting the week somberly with the Polish writer Tadeusz Borowski's "This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen," a volume that, as it happened, had provided inspiration for the 1984 Style Council song "Ghosts of Dachau," Poe then leavened his offerings on Day 2 with a pulp fiction comic of the 1940s.
These types of conversations would come to mirror critics' reactions to the film, with some repelled due to the viscerality of the subject matter (TriStar supposedly turned down the screenplay for being "too demented") while others were attracted to Pulp Fiction for exactly these reasons; that the content was too sensational to pass up.
At the time of former NFL great's infamous slow-speed Bronco pursuit, Travolta was in France at the Cannes Film Festival, where upstart writer/director Quentin Tarantino's second, narratively revolutionary film Pulp Fiction had just won the prestigious Palm d'Or award, signaling what was to become one of the most celebrated career resurgences in Hollywood history.
Trans scholar Susan Stryker noted in her book Queer Pulp: Perverted Passions from the Golden Age of the Paperback that many of the most famous publishers of LGBTQ literature in post-World War II America — most of them producing pulp fiction dime-store paperbacks — did not stray from topics of gender reassignment operations and cross-dressing.
And to be sure, while it runs about as long as Pulp Fiction, it's a slower movie—because it's moving at the pace of its protagonists, Jackie Brown (Grier) and her bail bondsman-cum-partner in crime Max Cherry (Robert Forster), the former approaching middle age and the latter just on the other side of it.
Harvey still maintains a 20% stake in The Weinstein Co. — a portion that he can't be forced to relinquish That means future movies (The Current War), recent releases (Tulip Fever, Lion, Carol) and — though it pains me to say it — a slew of Miramax classics, too (Pulp Fiction, the Scream movies, Good Will Hunting ... too many to name here).
"And they would bring them to me: these 1930s, 1940s, 19813s really pulp-fiction lesbian novels, in which at the end, one of the young women marries a man and the other one commits suicide," this Pulitzer-winning playwright, 64, said early one recent evening at the Vineyard Theater, where her new play, "Indecent," opens May 17.
He was formerly a cameraman for Quentin Tarantino, on " Pulp Fiction " (1994) and " Jackie Brown " (1997), and the cinematographer on "The Insult," Tommaso Fiorilli, keeps poking his lens into people's business, ducking and dodging like someone unable to stay away from a fight, and displaying a nimbleness that the script, by Doueiri and Joelle Touma, can scarcely match.
Here and there, Tarantino-universe references pop up: Rick does an ad for Red Apple Cigarettes, for example, which also appear in Pulp Fiction, The Hateful Eight, and Kill Bill Vol I. But then reality starts to fray, and what began as a buddy comedy turns into a full-on revisionist history of the summer of 1969.
Watching Pulp Fiction now, one of the things that stands out is how three-dimensional even passing characters feel, from the morbidly curious cabbie Esmarelda Villalobos (Angela Jones) to a figure as minor as Raquel (Julia Sweeney) from Monster Joe's Truck and Tow, who manages to come across as someone with a big story to tell in just a few seconds of screentime.
It's an iconic scene from Pulp Fiction set in a cheesy 50s diner, but in this case, Travolta and Thurman danced in an average-looking living room: This video was shot through an augmented reality app using a new machine learning app called Volume, which transforms 2D images into 3D, and projects them into the real world using an augmented reality headset.
Depressing though it may be, it's hard to imagine the Times's sources coming out against Weinstein if he were in the same position he was in back in the late '90s, when he could make or break Oscar fortunes and when he turned such unlikely movies as Shakespeare in Love, Pulp Fiction, and Life Is Beautiful into major box office hits.

I just searched for a bunch of important movies on there and saw that Raging Bull, Casablanca, Citizen Kane, Gone with the Wind, Do the Right Thing, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, every movie ever made by Alfred Hitchcock, 2001: A Space Odyssey, most Disney movies, Chinatown, Spirited Away, Pulp Fiction, Apocalypse Now, and Titanic are currently unavailable on Netflix streaming.
Where: 800 Congress (March 93, 12AM-1AM), The Gatsby (March 16, 11-11:40PM) Hometown: London, UK Why: Just when you thought PC Music might be reaching their 15th minute of fame, the collective's most-distinguished associate Sophie teamed up with the British popstar for the infectious Pulp Fiction-sampling "Trophy," off the latter's recent EP of the same title.
The opening shots of small-town America preparing for Halloween feel like a callback to the deceptively quaint small-town milieu of John Carpenter's Halloween (1978), and the dark depiction of the film's ancestral mansion is so steeped in a vintage pulp fiction ethos that the movie's marketing team spoofed that ethos on social media: Tell me a story, Sarah Bellows…#ScaryStoriesMovie pic.twitter.
Some of the most common fuckups seem to be minor factual errors, like a 1970 Roger Taylor playing a circa-1990s drum kit during Bohemian Rhapsody, or continuity mistakes, like the big red dot disappearing from Mia Wallace's chest after she gets that adrenaline shot in Pulp Fiction, or Julia Roberts' breakfast magically changing from a croissant to a pancake in Pretty Woman.
Sometimes the Democratic presidential primaries seem like that famous graphic scene from "Pulp Fiction": One minute Butch and Marsellus are on the streets trying to kill each other and the next they suddenly find themselves tied up in a basement facing a common enemy (an orange-haired security guard named Zed, along with his two lackeys, Maynard and the Gimp).
"We had just won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for Pulp Fiction," remembers Travolta, who'd returned to his home in Northern California excited about his new career prospects when he was beckoned to the TV by his father, who'd been a former football player and coach who'd worked with the legendary Vince Lombardi and was very familiar with Simpson.
The world was a very different place than it is today: Around 28500 million people used the internet (up from 6900 million the year before); there were about 2628,28503 websites (up from a few hundred the year before); "Forest Gump" and "Pulp Fiction" were the top movies; computer bulletin boards were still mildly popular, and the big three online service providers were AOL, Prodigy and CompuServe.
But for all the movie's now-iconic symbolism, there's one theme that usually goes overlooked: that all the food eaten or mentioned in Pulp Fiction—from the bowl of Fruit Brute cereal that Vince's dealer Lance (Eric Stoltz) is having for dinner to the frosted cinnamon Pop-Tarts that Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis) sticks in the toaster while retrieving his prized watch—is conventionally seen as garbage.
Yet there is something thrillingly open and unhermetic about the less complex creations of the early years, and there are patches of the new film that, like Richard Lester's "A Hard Day's Night" (1964), leave you shocked with excitement and glee; if you want to know how Uma Thurman felt, in "Pulp Fiction," when that syringe of adrenaline was harpooned into her chest, here's your chance.
It strives for irony, a postmodern savviness in the face of its own unconcealed profit motive; it jokes about the mainstream games it borrows ideas from, and piles on the schtick: There's a Zelda reference, a bird named Kim Fli Hy that's modelled after Kim Jong-il (concerning, if not quite racist), and a black-bobbed bird named Mia that I only now recognize as a Pulp Fiction reference.
The highest-quality memers online today — much like offline traditional comedians — do two things exceptionally well: And that's what the person behind Elara Pictures' Instagram account did when they mashed up Supreme Court nominee and alleged attempted rapist Brett Kavanaugh's braying confirmation hearing testimony with the iconic Big Kahuna Burger scene from Pulp Fiction, in which Samuel L. Jackson's character Jules Winnfield masterfully demolishes a man named Brett.
The festival has launched the careers of some of Hollywood's most prominent filmmakers (Quentin Tarantino, for example, premiered Pulp Fiction there in 21; before Sex, Lies and Videotapes won the Palme d'Or in 2100, Steven Soderbergh was a novice no-name directort); the exclusive who's who guest list, combined with the glamour of early summer on France's Cote d'Azur, gives it an allure beyond the scrappy (and snowy cold) indie vibe at Sundance.

Yet, watching "Black Friday," I sometimes wished for more of the technopessimism and autobiographical candor found in Ms. Al-Maria's writing — as in her piece for Bidoun on an Emirati cartoon sitcom inspired by "The Golden Girls," or her experimental essay "The Gaze of Sci-Fi Wahabi," a "theoretical pulp fiction and serialized videographic adventure" (with nods to J. G. Ballard), on subversive uses of Bluetooth networks in the Gulf, circa 2007.

After disposing of what becomes a brain-splattered Chevy Nova, Jules and Vince are hungry for breakfast and opt for a cheapy diner (Tarantino reportedly wrote the diner scenes of Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs with Denny's in mind, but the company wouldn't give him permission to film there), which winds up being the same diner that partners-in-crime Ringo (Tim Roth) and Yolanda (Amanda Plummer) decide to rob at gunpoint.
In 2015, he said he'd give her "some time with her daughter," and allow her to "actually enjoy her life for a while" before having to fend off a bloodthirsty, ruthless Copperhead Jr. Here's the problem: Tarantino just finished his ninth movie, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and he's vowed to stop directing after his tenth, which is looking like it might be an R-rated version of Star Trek that feels like "Pulp Fiction in space," apparently.
For all the significant movies of 1994 (a year that also produced The Lion King, The Shawshank Redemption, Clerks, Natural Born Killers, and Forrest Gump), it's Pulp Fiction that, maybe more than any other film in the past quarter century, has come to represent the stylistic benchmark of what contemporary crime cinema has since gravitated toward—and what movies today continue to emulate, especially in terms of meta storytelling, nonlinear narratives, and the endless homage and pastiche culture of the modern era.
