So let me get this straight. Vincent and Jules have a car filled with a dead man's head splattered all over the inside. The Wolf comes over and is like "My advice is...clean the car."

The only major service he provided was Monster Joe's services in disposing of the automobile. Otherwise, couldn't Vincent and Jules figured the rest out on their own? They were kind of stupid themselves, just sitting around drinking gourmet coffee until the Wolf arrived.

Vincent was a dumbass and so was Jules except that Jules knew how to talk a good talk with all that bullshit philosophy of his.

I will admit his topics inspired me to ask the questions I want answers to.

The Wolf was there to make sure all of the necessary steps were taken in the amount of time they had before Bonnie got home.

Jules and Vincent were frazzled and didn't have the mental capacity to do all that without getting caught by Bonnie.

I thought curse words weren't allowed in thread titles?

Solid Snake

So shit is ok?

shit yeah

JumpCutz

Oh dear god, did Snake just get the green light on "shit"? Everbody RUN!!!!

Michael Corvin

Which begs the question, why were two professional hitmen so frazzled over a dead body?

Buttmunker

They were frazzled over the dead body being splattered all over the inside of the car on a city street, in broad daylight.

They were under the crunch of time, and needed someone like The Wolf who could keep his cool under pressure.

Why So Blu?

Sheesh, another fucking thread asking "why didn't they use the sword at the beginning of the Jaeger/Kaiju fight."


The Wolf solves problems, that's what he does.

Shannon Nutt

Plus the advice is "clean the car" as opposed to other options like "ditch the car", "hide the car", "burn the car", "drive the car into a lake", etc.

You might still be learning the ropes, but we talk about movies on the movie forum. Been doing it before you joined, will keep doing it. If you don't like it, stay out of my thread.

The Wolf could have easily been played by Robert Forster as much as he was Harvey Keitel.

BTW, "The Bonnie Situation" contains - what I think - is the most hilarious quip written in a QT film:


Jimmy: "I can't believe this is the same car!"

Wolf: "Welllll, let's not suck each other's dicks just yet...."


Nice, QT, nice.

bluetoast

Yeah that's my favorite line from the movie.

Why So Blu?

"You sending the Wolf?"

"Oh, you feel better muthafucka?"

"Shieeeet, negro, that's all you had to say!"

Why So Blu?

It does help that Pulp Fiction is my #2 favorite film of all time, though.

Josh-da-man

Yeah, but under the circumstances, all three guys were in panic mode. Vincent and Jules needed someone there to take command and bark out orders to them, and they also needed someone to calm Jimmy down.

And Vincent is a dumbfuck, too. Notice the scene where gets blood all over the towel and then argues with Jules about it? Without Wolf there, that's all they would have been doing - Vincent giving attitude, Jules trying to reason with him, Jimmy flipping out, and nothing gets done.

I still want to know where The Wolf was coming from. He seemed to be at a house that was having a fashion show at like 8 a.m.

Jay G.

It seemed like just a general cocktail party, and he may not have been necessarily hosting. Back in the day, people had to borrow other people's phones to make calls. Given the year this movie was made, I'm guessing The Wolf had a beeper.

Also, it wasn't early morning, it had to have at least been around lunch time, since the people Jules and Vincent offed had ordered burgers. It may have even been dinner time.

devilshalo

That's how major players party, yo! They were still partying from the night before.

I assume that Mr. Wolf was a facilitator. Jules and Vincent were busy busting each other's balls about what happened to rationally take care of things before Bonnie got home. Mr. Wolf was sent to make sure decisions were made and action was taken PDQ.

Buttmunker

Big Kahuna Burger served hamburgers in the AM (McDonald's does not).

It was "morning," because Jules made the comment "...hamburgers, the cornerstone to any nutritional breakfast." Then, later, Vincent asks Jules if he's like to join him for breakfast.

What about you, Lash LeRoux? Can you keep your spurs from jingling and jangling?
