if i was joe cabot and selected the colors pink, white, orange, brown, and blue as my first five codenames for my heist crew, i certainly wouldn't have chosen a hair color as my final color... if he wasn't going with yellow (understandably), why at least did he not pick gold? why blonde?

#genuine question but now i just sound like mr pink complaining #reservoir dogs #mr blonde

a few lines from wishbone, another richard siken gem... i can't help but think of them

#listen i see richard siken and it's an instant reblog #my favorite poet genuinely of all time i think #PLEASE read his poem wishbone and think of these two and let me know what you think #please talk to me about this i could go insane about this #life changing #reservoir dogs #richard siken #quentin tarantino #mr orange #mr white

okay tbh my genuine belief is that freddy didn't actually ask larry what his name was and that larry actually volunteered it right after he got shot because he wanted to comfort him

#listen i know it's funny that freddy just goes around asking everyone for their name but. this though...#it's a better story with less blame on him if he tells mr pink that freddy's the one who asked #but in my opinion. better if not true and this is what really happened instead #bc according to the extra scenes freddy would've known his name anyway! wouldn't have needed to ask unless he wanted an excuse to say it ig #reservoir dogs #quentin tarantino #mr orange #mr white

logistically how do you think he shoved freddy in the backseat like. genuinely how did he even end up lying all scrunched up in there if the kid's carseat was in the way... even if he got shoved in right side up why did he rotate halfway around... there is no way that that was more comfortable

WAIT according to the reservoir dogs page on internet movie cars database, the car that they carjack during their getaway is a 1972 pontiac luxury lemans in the two-door model... so presumably white had to shove him in the back via the fold-up passenger seat AND maneuver him OVER the kid's carseat to get him behind the driver's side seat. no wonder the entire car was so bloody... at that point it surely would've been easier just to leave him in the passenger seat

#me personally i would have not gone through all that effort to get him back there but whatever.#sit your ass down in the front and let's get going #help me navigate or smth idk #reservoir dogs #quentin tarantino #mr orange #mr white

#the things i'm pondering about this movie... there is only 1 hour 39 minutes of content to work with so you really gotta get in there tbh #reservoir dogs #mr orange #freddy newandyke #quentin tarantino

#this is just quick and dirty bc I watched this last night #and I love how he assesses Freddy’s gun safety needs lo l#and also how subtle it was that he went and turned the safety back off while he was off screen #and just that he thought to do that bc he was so wary leaving Freddy with Vic #anyways I love this movie bye

when he's driving to the warehouse, nice guy eddie tells the guy on the phone that blonde took a cop hostage to get away, but i wonder if he grabbed marvin nash from inside right after the alarms went off or if he just like. snatched him off the street on his way out or something

#like did he have the misfortune of just happening to have been standing there and got grabbed or what #reservoir dogs #mr blonde #marvin nash

orange's arm around white during the diner scene. that's it that's the post.

reservoir dogs fans, riddle me this: at the 15 minute and 12 seconds mark, after mr. pink asks if the robbery was a setup, it most certainly sounds like orange agrees with him like the subtitles say here! i'm not sure if my subtitles are tricking me, but i swear i can clearly hear orange answer in the affirmative. crazy if true...

what do we have to say about this?

#literally tell me if i'm hallucinating this but i swear i hear him literally answer pink just like the subtitles say #go rewatch and let me know bc i've been dying for a definitive answer on this #reservoir dogs #mr orange #mr pink #quentin tarantino

Empty Frames ½ | Reservoir Dogs (1992)

#reservoir dogs #quentin tarantino

have you ever wondered what exact date of the events of reservoir dogs takes place? me too, and through a little bit of analysis, here's my conclusion:

at 33 minutes and 51 seconds in, you can see this calendar behind mr. blonde as he makes his first appearance after the robbery. given that the movie was filmed in 1991, if you assume this calendar is from that year and then match the month with the shape of the weeks to find all potential options, you're left with february 1991 as the perfect match.

now, given that they're listening to k-billy's super sounds of the 70s weekend, we can reasonably assume that this heist takes probably place over a weekend span of either friday, saturday, or sunday. in my opinion, friday should be ruled out because at 3 minutes and 15 seconds, mr. pink states that he was listening to the station "the other day." if the station only runs over the weekend, unless he's referring to the past weekend (which i choose to believe he's not), he probably would have just said "earlier today." also, if it was saturday and he heard the song on friday, he should've just said "yesterday." this leads me to believe the heist takes place on sunday, with my speculation also heightened by the fact that they're a bunch of guys in suits sitting around a diner for morning breakfast--a usual sight during a businesman's work week and before or after sunday church services, but not so much on an average saturday.

with all that as evidence, i believe the reservoir dogs heist took place on a sunday, with the date as either february 3rd, 10th, 17th, or 24th of 1991.

#but that's just my speculation!#i've thought for a long time about this #me personally i'm led to believe it's mid-february because looking at historical weather data from los angeles in feb 1991 #it was consistently in the mid 70s for a couple days which would explain mr orange's hawaiian shirt fit in the stakeout scene #the high later in the month was low 60s... not quite the typical hawaiian shirt weather #but what do you guys think #please let me know i'm so intrigued #reservoir dogs #quentin tarantino #mr orange #mr blonde #mr pink

a fascinating bit of cut dialogue from the reservoir dogs screenplay that i've NEVER seen anyone talk about... could have had a freddy newandyke jokester moment but we all missed out

#yes i made a reservoir dogs blog JUST to post this because it's been driving me crazy for months since i noticed it #i have two editions of the official screenplay and they've both got it #but i've never seen anybody talk about it online or anywhere else #reservoir dogs #mr orange #freddy newandyke #quentin tarantino
