If you've got a taste for killing people, with hint of blood and gore, then you might be down for some of Macbeth's top picks for this week!
An action packed adventure that will leave you wondering what happens next follows the story of a ninja warrior who will stop at nothing to Kill Bill. She is played by Uma Thurman, and she represents a strong and powerful woman, physically and mentally. Macbeth would take a liking to this as he tends to cave into his manipulative wife's every demand.
Kill Bill Vol. 2
If you got through my first paragraph, then you are sure in for a show. This is the ultimate conclusion its predecessor. Uma finally Faces bill for a battle. Just like Macbeth's actions had ensured his death, so did poor old Bill's. Macbeth really loved the ending to this classic action two part extravaganza.
Django Unchained
If kill bill wasn't violent enough for you then sit back and put on your butchers apron for this one. An amazing story of a man who went from being a slave to a free man by gun-slinging his way to the top. Jamie Fox and Christoph Waltz are a great duo in this spaghetti western spoof. Macbeth loved this story as it mirrored his rise to power with good ol' cold blooded murder.
Pulp Fiction
An Oscar winning classic will leave you speechless. Its got great balance blood, love, and California sunshine. It will transport you to a time that was real fly, and I'm not just talking about heroin. Macbeth chose this film because it really spoke to his heart. A story about living life, filled with action and drama, and fulfilling your desires before you die. Vincent Vega's death really put things into perspective for Macbeth, and he truly understood what it meant to accept your fate.
Reservoir Dogs
Now that you have watched four 2 hour films, I suggest you watch another one. I saved the best for last. A true original that brought Tarantino to stardom. Keep watching as you witness an undercover cop lie his way through pain and agony to finish the job he started. Macbeth chose this film because it really reminded him of the good old days. When you could gain someones trust just to ensure their death, for a cause of course. Any viewer with a thirst for blood, and violence should surely watch this. After all, Macbeth chose it himself.
Enjoy
Alec,
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Macbeth really loves Quentin Tarantino, and I think that's somewhat accurate. Macbeth lived a very bloody life, and he was a soldier before he killed Duncan. These aspects make most of your picks good choices, but including both films of the Kill Bill Saga is somewhat of a stretch. Maybe Inglorious Basterds, where they kill the powerful leader of Germany, would be a good replacement. Overall, good post, and I respect the love for Tarantino.

Dearest Alec,
ReplyDeleteWhat a quality post from a quality dude. I like to think our future lives, like Pulp Fiction, will be a "great balance of blood, love, and California sunshine." I have a confession to make too. I did feel a deep connection when we officially met and have secretly been in love with you since I first saw you in second grade. Unfortunately, I cannot allow us to get married because of a fatal mistake you have made. Our love was not sparked 4 days ago??? We met 5 days, 10 hours, 17 minutes, and 56 seconds ago <3 . I have to say this is the end. Goodbye my love,
Brenna Nite
Okay real post time,
ReplyDeleteYour blog was actually quality, and I enjoyed reading it. Your theme of hardcore violent movies was seen, and its connection to Macbeth was very clear. However, all of the movies you recommended had main characters with a strong motive/ goal to kill and be violent (I think? I haven't actually seen any of them except the slave one). Do you think Macbeth's goal was to be violent or was it possibly an unknown consequence to his guilt/ unstable mental state? Also, we didn't go to the same elementary school so I never saw you in second grade..
That is all.
