(Spoilers for movies.) (Spoiler tags suck. I don't use them.)
As much as I like Tarantino movies, it's sometimes hard to turn a blind eye to how much he gets "inspired" by other movies. And by "gets inspired" I of course mean "rips the shit off them". I just finished watching City On Fire, a Chinese movie from the late-ish 80's and it's basically Reservoir Dogs. Or rather, Reservoir Dogs is basically City On Fire. They both involve a heist (diamonds in RD, jewelry in COF), both have undercover cops, both involve the alarm being set off mid-heist, both have the undercover cop getting shot in the stomach, both have the cop and surviving gangsters go to a warehouse, both have the Mexican standoff about who is the police informant (though in COF nobody is killed by the standoff), both have tons of cops surrounding the warehouse, and both have a cop/gangster friendship which is shattered when the cop reveals himself to the only surviving gangster (his friend) before dying. There's even a shot-for-shot rip off of the dual-wielding pistol gangster thing.
If you have a few minutes, just watch. The similarities go further than this, but this is a great example. Skip to about 3:20 on the City On Fire video to get to the warehouse part.

I'm pretty sure that Taratino is very open about his influences and admits to any scenes that were modeled after a prior film.

I just got back from seeing it with my friends. It was... good. Visually, it was stunning, and some of the concepts and how it ties in with the Alien franchise is pretty cool. The plot and some of the characters were lacking though, and it really wasn't that scary. In the end, it was worth it. Also, that feel when my friends and I were harassed by a theater employee before seeing the movie.

I watched Adventure time today it was honestly the weirdest thing I've ever watched aside from The mighty boosh, I liked Adventure time though.

Adventure Time is really the freakiest kids show I've ever watched. Or maybe I just watched the wrong episode. Either way, a peppermint dude wanting to eat the funny-hood-guy's flesh is pretty freaky.

I stand by my opinion, and I still say that Adventure Time is currently the best children's animated program that's currently airing on television.

I have to disagree, Regular Show is indeed far better than Adventure Time..Adventure Time isn't bad though.
