Pulp Fiction is not a rip off of other movies as far as I know. It probably references loads and is influenced by loads but I don't think you could call it a rip off. Reservoir Dogs on the other hand..... Check out a film called City On Fire by Ringo Lam. It features a jewelry-store robbery by a team of colour-coded robbers with an undercover cop in their midst.

 

[Goodbye]

Quentin Tarrantino is a fucking genius

 

[Bluto]

The taking of Pelham 123 also had the colour coded criminals in it. Great movie BTW

I don't think it is actually in the bible in the form it is in the film. He took big liberties with it, I think. I could be wrong, as I am a confirmed atheist and don't really read the bible.

 

[zebra heart attack]

depends on the version of course..

"Ezekiel 25:17 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)

I will carry out great vengeance on them and punish them in my wrath. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I take vengeance on them."

Isn't that also the name of Tarantinos production company?
Yes Rothko, it is...
