7:17 So when Mia snorts the Heroin, she thinks that it's coke because of the container it was in. Coke is known to come in a baggie. Heroine is known to come in to balloons for this reason. When the dealer says "I'm out of balloons, is a baggie okay?", that is something that he needed to clarify with Vincent because that is how people differentiate coke and heroin they look very identical in powder form. With Mia not knowing this, she OD'd. It took me years to realize this and is one of the greatest attentions to detail I've ever seen...Blows my mind till this day. I'm requesting 3 sins off.

cinemasins: everything wrong with pulp fi- me: *I DONT REMEMBER ASKING YOU A GODDAMN THING*

The reason Vincent didn't hear Butch is because...well he did hear Butch. Marcellus lost a lot of money on Butches fight and wanted to cap him personally. When they found out Butch wasn't at his apartment they waited for him to come back, eventually they got hungry Marcellus left his Mac-10 in the apartment to go get donuts. Vincent had to use the bathroom, while in the bathroom he heard Butch come back, but he assumed it was Marcellus with the donuts. He walked out eager for a sugary snack but instead got blasted by the guy he was supposed to kill.

They did actually lose the contest. It's shown briefly in the news in the background that they had actually stolen the trophy. Not even I picked that up so I can't blame giving a sin for that

If you worked at a McDonald's when this came out, the biggest ding was having to hear every smartass ask for a 'Royale with cheese'.

the most accurate part is that you kept removing sins

You know a movie is great when you can remember the exact moment and circumstances when you saw it for the first time. I had a friend who lived in my apartment complex, his older brother showed me this movie and played the OutKast Aquemini album in the same night. I was never the same.

Vinces death is absolutely essential to the meaning of the movie. Gold watch sequence is so important the movie changes completely without it.

the scene with the overly long description of what she wants for breakfast is for hinting she's pregnant and has a large appetite

I'll never forgive you if you haven't removed a sin for "Oh man I shot Marvin in the face."

The opening credits was necessary to detach you emotional from the opening scene. It was genius really. It essentially resets the viewer, and prepares them for the overall story "order"

Totally dig that Marsellus let Butch go. He knew what Butch did to come back and that Butch was home free if he just left. Coming back was a purely selfless act that did nothing but create negatives for a guy who was a hated enemy. And saved his life. Marsellus got a heap of character exposition there by recognizing that and letting him leave (and Marsellus was saved from certain death several times in the last few minutes so hes probably just grateful it ended with him alive. Also there is NO doubt he had other things on his mind, all he wanted to do was concentrate on the horrible upcoming torture)

more than half of these "sins" is what makes this film so brilliant

Seen this movie a million times and never noticed Vincent was walking to the bathroom in the first scene until now...

I agree that Jules says “Brad” and not “Brett” but I always assumed it was either Jules simply not caring enough to remember Brett’s name, or Jules intentionally screwing it up as if to say “I don’t care enough about you, nor are you important enough, for me to remember your name”

17:16 I would say that the reason the wolf is so successful is that he's easily able to stay calm in a stressful situation. Whereas in most cases people can't see the obvious when they're freaking out

How does Vincent not hear this? He does, he just assumes it's Marsellus coming back with the coffee which Butch "runs" into

You know its a good ass movie when cinemasins apologizes for removing so many sins

11:10 Vincent though he had heard Marcellus entering. The next scene confirms that because Marcellus was carrying 2 cups of coffee before he was hit by Buch.

I in 89-91 I lived in the apartment building that the Brett seen was shot in, and I can assure you that someone absolutely could have gotten shot there & no one called the cops, LOL. 1. It was in the middle of Hollywood 2. It was in a REALLY SKETCHY area in the middle of Hollywood (my roommates BF was murdered around the corner from our building, my old janky car was stolen by a homeless person 2 weeks after I moved in) 3. The building had started as a luxury hotel built at the turn of the 20th century & was built to completely different standards than buildings of today. The lathe & plaster over brick walls were so thick & sturdy as to be nearly soundproof. I could play LOUD punk rock music all night long & never bother my neighbors. You couldn’t hear it through the floors/ceiling or outside my apartment unless you were standing in the hall directly outside my front door. It was also RIGHT next to a freeway off-ramp that was LOUD & busy 24 hrs a day. Gunshots could easily go unheard in that environment. 4. It was an old, rundown, dirty, cheap AF building managed by a skeezy creepy alcoholic 2nd rate Boss Hogg impersonator, filled with a random eclectic assortment of very low income goths, punks, bikers, seniors, undocumented immigrants, people on disability, addicts, mentally ill, LGBTQ couples etc who most likely wouldn’t want to get involved with the bigoted a-holes at LAPD if they didn’t absolutely have to…and as someone who was regularly profiled, targeted, harassed, even assaulted back then by LA & OC PD’s simply because I looked wEiRd & listening to anti-authoritarian music, I don’t fucking blame them. That building in that city in that particular moment in time that the movie is both being filmed and taking place, it’s not at all implausible that shots would go unheard or ignored.

CinemaSins has finally done Pulp Fiction. What a moment in history.

1 sin to Cinema Sins for not acknowledging that Steve Buscemi was the waiter who took Vincent’s and Mia’s order

So @58 seconds, you see Vince walking out in the background. I absolutely love that attention to detail

I just love how Jules is tripping about not getting shot. "We should be f***king dead man!" 😆 Nice realistic touch 👌

I demand you remove another 50 sins for the whole "fox force 5" scene being a huge foreshadowing to the entire Kill Bill story

Cinema sins I don’t remember asking you a god damn thing!

6:57 Vincent and Mia didn't win the dance contest but stole the trophy! When Butch later sits in the taxi you can hear about it in the Radio broadcast.

10:30 this dialogue was completely necessary because it pays off with one of the best lines in the movie which is when Butch says "Did you get your pancakes?" later on.

11:10 Vincent assumes the noises Butch is making in his apartment is Marcellus coming back with the donuts and coffee.

Idk about everyone else but I thought the scene where Quentin Tarantino talks about how fucking good his coffee is, was amazing.

Sin on Cinema Sins. The whole movie is about Butch's legacy, which is Butch surviving and passing on the birthright watch passed down to him.

Quite possibly the greatest film in history. Definitely my personal favorite. This movie blew me away the first time I saw it and not one movie has even came close since to have the same kind of effect.

I've seen this movie at least 20 times and never noticed Vincent walking in the background of the beginning of the movie

Is it me or was this the most times he removed sins for a movie?

You gave a sin for Vincent not hearing Butch, but its extremely reasonable to think that Vincent heard Butch and just mistook him for Marsellus, who we see heading towards the apartment after Butch leaves.

I always though he said "check out the big brain on bread!" I have used that line my whole life 😂🤦‍♂️

little fun fact: The Adrenaline Shot scene was filmed in reverse :D

Samuel L Jackson's performance in Pulp Fiction is one of the best performances I've ever seen in my entire life

I had the pleasure of seeing this in the theater and I think decades may have gone by before I noticed Vincent walking by in the opening coffee shop scene.

Personal head cannon here but I think the reason there’s a distinct lack of cops in this movie despite all the crazy shit happing is because it takes place during the events of reservoir dogs

I remember walking out of the theatre at 16 years old, thinking I’d just witnessed the ultimate game changer in the film industry. 26 years later, and I still can’t think of another movie that made me feel that way.

No sin removal for “Zed is dead baby”

Pulp Fiction is a Classic and oh so good. You missed a big blooper/sin but you touched on it. Has anyone ever noticed that when MIa and Vincent arrive back to her house after dinner, they enter, she puts in the code to the alarm, plops down on the couch and one of the patio doors behind her is wide open?

You can remove another 10 for sinning obvious joke situations and set ups of surreal situations / behaviours... so for a 2.5 hour film to only have 75 sins seems like a good deal

They actually did lose the Twist Contest. They stole the trophy. You can hear someone mentioning it either on a radio or a TV in the background later.

"Don't be a--" RECTANGLE! God, that had me laughing for so long. Haha

You’re so great at this . Obsessed with these. Thank you

He literally ran out of the ring...straight out the building...he still had his gloves on in the cab...he knew he wasnt gonna be able to make it back to the locker room get his watch if he had it with his other stuff.

Wow. This is arguably the most lenient CinemaSins has ever been with a movie, especially when they had 20 minutes to sin it.

11:17 Vincent does notice the sound it’s just that he thought it was Marsellus , Marsellus went out to get donuts and that’s why when leaving Bruce runs into him.

@2:18 When Marcellus calls The Wolf later on in the movie, he gives a physical description of Jules and Vincent, which The Wolf takes note of. So it’s reasonable to assume that Marcellus briefed Jules and Vincent the same way before they confronted Brett and Co.

He removed 16 sins off this movie. You can tell he loves it.

10 sins to Cinema Sins for not realizing Fox Force Five was really Kill Bill.

7:04 they lost that contest, later in the movie radio announces that prize for that contest has been stolen 11:09 also Vincent didn't react to the noise because he thought it was Marsellus, who was out for coffee and thought he had returned

My favorite movie of all time. Watched it numerous times a year since I was 12 and IVE NEVER NOTICED VINCE WALKING IN THE OPENING SCENE!

I feel like Butch making the toast was more of him asserting a form of dominance, like "Yeah Im running but Im getting my watch and making some toast so you havent beaten me". Felt alot more sensical like that

11:10 Vincent doesn't react to the noise in the kitchen because he thinks it's Marsellus returning from his coffee/donut run

Fun fact: in a bit of subtle storytelling Tarantino makes it clear that the gun on the counter did not belong to Vincent but it belonged to Wallace, who was tagging along and had taken a break to get coffee and donuts and given the fact you can’t carry around an UZI in public he had to leave it on the counter.

*11:09* Vincent most likely heard all the noise, but presumed it was Marsellus back front the donut store. Thank me later 👌🏽

Honestly, i believe when a movie is really good its difficult not to try to to look for any mistakes in a movie. I had the same problem when watching Knives Out the second time around.

Dude, the only thing wrong with pulp fiction is that I’m not watching it at this moment

I laughed out loud at "RECTANGLE!" That has bugged me since the very first time I saw this movie. (And I saw it 6 times in the theater in 1994.)

Movie: shows first frame. MovieSins: and I took that personally.

The extra (the reviewer keeps saying is not needed) colorful dialogue is a great deal of what makes Tarentino's movies as good as they are.

I've heard the reason that law enforcement is " conspicuously absent" when Butch hits Marcellus, is apparently ( according to fan theory) this was taking place at the same time as the diamond heist in " Reservoir Dogs" and most of the police where handling that. The " Quentin Tarantino" movie universe is apparently " connected"

"I find it hard to believe that THIS many women are just standing there touching their faces" Uh about that...

As a fighter I can confirm that eating the toaster pastry the day after a fight would be a priority

Haha having an appetitte while being fried out of your mind on Horse or coke always bothered me to no end. Loved that you mentioned that one.

They put a sin in just for having Kathy Griffin in the movie lmao. Im dying

12:20 The cops don’t show up because they’re all too busy dealing with a diamond store robbery.

As a life-long Tennessean, I really appreciate you sinning the timezone thingy.

Oh and as far as him canceling the hit on Butch all he would have to say is " I found him he earned a pass and its over." And it would be over

I've probably watched it 500 times in the past 25 years and I've never noticed Vincent walking to the bathroom until now. Thanks for pointing that out

11:10 actually Vincent hears the sounds but he doesnt react. Because he thinks that it is Marsellus Wallace who is making the noises and the gun on counter is Marsellus' gun. In the scene where Butch hits Marsellus with his honda you can see that Marsellus has two coffees and donut package in his hands. He is going back to Butch's apartment.

Yeah the ordering a bunch of food after railing coke was always hilarious to me. Ain't no one snorting coke and then sitting down calm and relaxed, ordering food.

11:13 Vincent does hear the noise, but he’s probably thinking Marcellus has returned with the coffee and donuts.

16:10 tarantino's acting was not that bad. He played a weird low key everyday man. His lack of acting skills made his character more realistic

I watched Kill Bill first then Pulp fiction. Because of this, I instantly realized that Mia's Fox Force Five story is infact QT's Kill Bill story

13:17 I love how they just take a sin off without even saying anything

Now, just play the entire movie to show everything right with it. It's fucking awesome!

The pop tart scene bothered me too until I realized that Vincent did not expect the palooka to return and Marcellus was out getting coffee and donuts and was expected back shortly. Vincent thought the noise was Marsellus. Simple.

"Strip." "All the way?" "To your bare ass." *Quinton Tarantino's private conversation with Harvey Weinstein somehow made it into the final script*

@cinemasins - Love watching your videos but was a little surprised you didn’t pick up on the gun shot holes already in the wall before the dude came out of the toilet, you can see them over Jules shoulder 😂

Even the weakest performances in this movie (which arguably was Butch) is such a national treasure. Easily one of my favorite films of all time.

The scene where Vincent gets shot, the uzi is Marcellus’s and he went out to get coffee and donuts explaining why he would just leave it there and that Vincent doesn’t get worried if he hears anything that butch does because he probably thinks it’s Marcellus

Movie character: sneezes CinemaSins: he didn’t use his elbow?! 10 sins added!

@11:10 Vincent probably did hear the ruckus going on while in the bathroom… he just probably thought it was Marcellus coming back with the coffee.

the sudden “Arby’s we have the meats” in that one Ving outtake fucking killed me lmao

every time Vincent goes to the bathroom something bad happens, Mia overdoses The diner gets shot up he gets shot by Butch

Quentin Tarantino actually asked Kurt Cobain from Nirvana to play Lance the drug dealer but he declined, that is why he looks so much like Kurt Cobain

The “prank call” quote is something I use at least once a month, that’s how iconic this sh*t is.

The following of Bruce Willis up to his apartment where he gets his watch and then kills John Travolta is one of my favourite sequences of all time

"You're the weak, and I am the tyranny of evil men" One of the greatest movie quotes of all time.

Conversations about blueberry pancakes is what makes movies like Pulp Fiction so realisticish.

The Christopher Walken watch monologue is one of my favorite scenes in a movie.

Kudos for the Reservoir Dogs iconic dialogue at the end... BRAVO 👏 👏 👏

I always thought Jules called Brett Brad on purpose because he doesn’t give a MOTHERFUCK who he is or what his name is. 2:23

Butch: "I specifically reminded you not to forget my father's watch!" Fabienne: "Well if it's so important, how come YOU forgot it?" Butch: 🤯

Two points worth noting: 1.) Heroin was typically stored in balloons; blow in baggies. Lance mentioned being out of balloons. Mia, being a seasoned cokehead, saw the baggie and it's not far-fetched to assume the contents were cocaine. 2.) Marcellus was out getting coffee and doughnuts, and Vince was taking a shit (notably his 2nd of the film). So hearing the sound of an occupant in the kitchen wouldn't have alarmed him, as it easily could have been Marcellus preparing to eat some breakfast.

4:24 There are way, way more heroin addicts than you think who are extremely high-functioning. Back when I was a junkie, I got complimented by my boss and customers all the time for what a great friendly mood I was always in. You only ever see the stereotypical decrepit seedy thieving street junkies on TV, but there are tons and tons of opiate addicts who have families, careers, stable home lives, what have you. It's honestly easier to be a functional junkie than a functional alcoholic.
