    That's a tough rating Bob give he's only done 9 or 10 movies depending on how you want to split Kill Bill.

    It did meander in places but damn that final scene sure made up for a lot of meandering. It gave me immense satisfaction as he went for the crowd pleasing finish.

    I see your not a movie buff... When I speak of QT I go back to his master pieces with Robert Rodriguez (Dusk till Dawn and many more great movies in between the two) Or his Screen Play for Tony Scott in 'True Romance' . QT has been the around a lot longer then 10 movies.

    Fair enough but he himself considers he has 9 movies, personally. The industry considers it 9 or 10.

    QT can consider what ever he likes . The truth is he would have never been successful without Robert Rodriguez.

    Unless Lee is a capable grappler it’s dire- Ali will literally not blink at anything Lee throws at him and drum him out in one punch. It’s very likely Muhammad’s jab is enough to take someone that small out of commison, with tiny little gloves it’s a fact he’ll waste him- right hand would be man slaughter bare fisted.

    This is the thread stopper.....
    Even the modern day UFC'S
    fighters Lee's size would
    find it almost impossible
    to close the distance to grapple Ali
    before they are knocked clean out.

    I thought Death Proof was his worst movie in all honesty.
