Movies[edit]

If I like Pulp fiction, Fight Club, the cornetto trilogy and trainspotting - tell me a few more movies I'll like.

<sarcasm>Movies featuring drugs and/or violence might be hard to find,</sarcasm> but how about Get Shorty, Kill Bill, Roadhouse, and Ultraviolet (film), for starts ? One I can recommend that combines the two is The Usual Suspects. StuRat (talk) 23:22, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Tip: check on the bottom of an article on a movie you like, and click on a category for more films in that category, e.g: Mafia comedy films or Films directed by Quentin Tarantino or Unicorns in film. 2606:A000:4C0C:E200:198D:93E0:4AF4:F57D (talk) 00:44, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sites like IMDB and AllMovie have sections in article reviews that suggest movies based on what your opinion is of other movies. As do services like Amazon.com and Netflix. --Jayron32 01:23, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Pulp Fiction doesn't fit with the others cinematically. The others have a lot more jump-action, cutting from once scene to the next and dropping frames from a scene to make it run faster. Pulp Fiction has a lot of scenes with long dialog. So, my gut feeling is that you like the quick cut and fast action, which is similar to "Snatch" and "Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels". 209.149.113.5 (talk) 13:04, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Pulp Fiction jumps around in its chronology, somewhat like Slaughterhouse Five does. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 15:23, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
