Quentin Tarantino Updates on 'Kill Bill 3'

When writer/director Quentin Tarantino announced his plans to make "Kill Bill 3" on an Italian talk show back in October, one of the many speculative questions asked was how can they make a "Kill Bill 3" if the titular Bill [spoiler alert!] was killed at the end of "Kill Bill: Vol. 2"? [end spoiler].

MTV News spoke with Tarantino and got him to clarify the situation regarding "Kill Bill Vol. 3."

"Well, it wouldn't be 'Kill Bill' obviously. It would be Volume 3 of the story of the Bride," Tarantino said.

On top of addressing the title issue by saying it’d be called something different, he also revealed it won’t be his next film.

"I won't do that next, but it could very well be the thing I do after next," Tarantino explained.

Tarantino has said in the past he plans to take 10 years off before returning to the adventures of The Bride. The last one came out in 2004, so we're slowly reaching that 10 year mark.

"There's no script, there are just ideas and notes," he said. "We're getting there, we're about one movie away."

So while "Kill Bill Vol. 3," or whatever it will eventually be called, is in the works and will happen sometime (probably by 2014), don't expect it anytime soon. As for what's next from Quentin Tarantino, we'll have to wait and see.

Any thoughts on what the new "Kill Bill" film will be called? Do you think the plot will follow Vernita Green’s daughter getting revenge on The Bride?

Movie Trailer Mash-Ups

With the great power of technology it is a simple matter of playing with video and audio to create and mix trailers from different movies. Yes, I spend way too much time on YouTube watching these things, but they are truly awesome and funny.

Watch some of them below. If you all find them as entertaining as I do, I'll find some more to post here as well.

"Toy Story 2" meets "Requiem for a Dream"


"Beauty and the Beast" meets "Kill Bill Vol. 1"


This one isn't a mash of two movies, but instead is a different take on the classic film "Jaws." Here, the story looks like the main characters from the film love the shark.

'Kill Bill Vol. 3'

During an interview on the Italian chat show Parla con Me (or “Talk To Me”), Quentin Tarantino was asked (the questions are in Italian) if he would be making any follow up films to his previous work, and after saying, “it will never happen,” to a "Pulp Fiction" sequel, he reveals his intention to make "Kill Bill Vol. 3."

Tarantino doesn’t give any solid details on what "Kill Bill Vol. 3" might be about other than it is just in the idea stages at the moment. But he DOES let us know a couple of things: He wants it to take place 10 years after the events of "Kill Bill Vol.2" (for that to be in real time, too, he’d have to wait until 2014) and he reveals part of his reasoning for wanting to make another is that he loves the character of The Bride so much.

Sounds like reason enough to me! If you want to hear the “announcement” from the lips of Mr. Tarantino himself (“The Bride will fight again!”), check out the video below from the Italian talk show Parla con Me (the "Kill Bill 3" stuff starts at 5:55):


SPOILERS FOR "KILL BILL" AHEAD!
YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!
Tarantino has hinted in the past that a third "Kill Bill" could take place from the scene in "Vol.1" where The Bride tells Vernita Green’s (played by Vivica A. Fox) daughter, after killing her mother, that if she’s still, “raw about it,” then The Bride will be waiting. This would be a fitting plot because The Bride went to get revenge on those who killed her daughter (or so she thought…), her husband and at least TRIED to kill her, and so it makes sense that Vernita Green’s daughter, Nikki, would want revenge on her.

Perhaps we’ll even get to see The Bride’s daughter, B.B., go sword-to-sword with Vernita Green’s daughter…

Of course, the sad passing of Bill himself, David Carradine, means that they can’t really have any flashback scenes involving the character. Not unless they recast which, out of respect for Carradine, I don’t think Tarantino would do. So I assume that, along with the “Vernita Green’s daughter getting revenge on The Bride” storyline, Tarantino will exclude any Bill storyline (maybe he’d include one done in anime, like the O-Ren Ishii sequence in "Vol. 1"). Which begs the question: Will Tarantino still call it "Kill Bill"? After all, The Bride did ultimately kill Bill. So it doesn’t really make sense to call the third movie as such. Or am I way off?

What do you think of the prospect of a third "Kill Bill"? Do you like the idea of revisiting The Bride character after 10 years and continuing on the bloody fighting we saw so much of in Volumes 1 and 2? Or is the story told and Tarantino should just leave it alone?

'Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair'

"Kill Bill Vol. 1" and "Kill Bill Vol. 2" are awesome movies directed by Quentin Tarantino. He had originally envisioned them as one long four hour movie, but they were eventually split. Both films have been on DVD for some time, but Tarantino tells fans that the two films will be combined in a special DVD titled "Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair."

There are several different details between the two separate films and the complete version. Some of the details were that the black-and-white “House of Blue Leaves” fight sequence will be in color; that there will be gorier anime sequences; and no “baby cliffhanger” that’s at the end of "Vol.1."

However, one of the biggest changes to the full version will be the addition of a newly created sequence that will take place during the anime segment featuring Lucy Liu’s O-Ren Ishii. Tarantino is still finishing up "Inglourious Basterds" (since it still hasn’t had it’s theatrical release), but says he’ll move onto "The Whole Bloody Affair" straight after that. Here’s what he told Sci Fi Wire:

“I need to do one thing with it, though… I’m not going to monkey around with the movie itself, but we’ve actually done a whole new section for the anime as the last thing [we added]. I actually wrote a much longer script for the anime section during O-Ren’s revenge chapter. Remember the guy with the long hair that kills her father? It’s like, what happened to that dude? Well, I wrote it and it was the biggest, most elaborate thing I wrote-her taking him down.”

He says that this added anime sequence was conceived back when he had the four-plus-hour movie in mind, as opposed to it being split into two separate ones. He says that the reason they never had the full anime sequence is because it was so big.

Tarantino reveals that he more recently showed Harvey Weinstein exactly what he had written before shooting the Kill Bills and they went ahead and made the extended anime sequence with the same team (Production I.G.) that made the existing sequence within "Kill Bill Vol.1." Tarantino claims that all that’s left to do is go over it a bit with the anime team, to make sure everything’s right.

Have you already bought yourself the "Kill Bill" separate films on DVD or have you been waiting forever for this complete set (like I have)?
