I saw part of it on tv not to long ago but I started it in the middle. I have never been so confused I saw people dressed like girls and singing about time warps and I have no clue what is going on ??? :o

I'll make you a deal... I'll give you back the hour and a half you wasted watching RHPS if you give me back the hour and a half I wasted watching Mars Attacks. :suffer:

No dice.  It's been well over a decade since I've seen RHPS, so I've had a good chance to forget it.

I'm used to hating what almost everyone else likes and liking what almost everyone else hates. It's why I rarely ever watch TV or movies any more. :P

Peace & Luv, Liz

HAHAH!  When it was on TV I thought the exact same.. except for the Time Warp part, I didn't watch it long enough for that. :P

I wouldn't classify Kill Bill under the same category as: Mars Attacks, Spaceballs, Austin Powers or RHPS.  There is some satire in it, but it's more like an action film with a plot. ;D

Well, there's a huge difference.  Mars Attacks, Spaceballs, Austin Powers are all spoofs.  Poking fun at those genres.  RHPS is just a load of crap. :D  
Kill Bill is an homage to all the corny kung-fu movies that Quentin Tarantino watched and was influenced by.  More of a "Thank you" than a "Ha-ha, look at you..." thing.  He enjoyed those movies and wanted to make one similar to that with his own story.  Hence the cheesey kung-fu master, the over the top gore, Uma in her yellow track suit, etc...

I still find it amusing that you think RHPS is a load of crap, but you liked Mars Attacks (which IMHO was a load of crap). :D

At any rate, I remembered another spoof movie I liked... South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut. :D

Although the funniest part was when the people behind the Oscars decided to nominate one of the movie's songs (which actually were good, in a very twisted sort of way) and they ran into the slight problem that every song that fit the criteria uses at least one of the "Deadly Words You Can't Say on Television". :suffer:

Peace & Luv, Liz

Yes, "Blame Canada" got nominated...

Heh, yah. I liked "What Would Brian Boitano Do?" better, though.
