Fun thing to note: Beatrix Kiddo plucked out Elle's eye with her right hand - and her right arm belonged to Pai Mei, ever since she tried to hit him with a rock and he took the rock away and threatened to break it. He claimed her arm...and so he got his revenge on Elle from beyond the grave...

Bill did think it was the other guy's baby - he said "that man of yours works pretty fast," meaning he thought she'd gotten pregnant almost as soon as she met him.

I think that when she said "it's your ba-" as he shot her, he was surprised and it threw his aim off. Then he arranged for her to be cared for and for their baby to be delivered, and took custody. He also called off Elle's attempt to kill her in her sleep. In his warped way, he still cared for her.

Toxic af, but then all of them were assassins, none of them good people.

Elle hated Kiddo because Kiddo dated Bill first and Bill dated Elle after Kiddo. Elle also was trained by Pai Mei after Kiddo…so Elle was jealous of Kiddo for two reasons.

Budd was Bill’s brother. He warned Bill not to have deep feelings for Kiddo but Bill didn’t listen to him. Budd was mad at Bill and didn’t speak to him for a while. Budd felt remorse over his assassin life and felt that he deserves the shitty life he lives.

O-Ren and Vernita Green were soldiers following Bill’s orders.

Bill was raised by a Pimp (Esteban) so Bill’s ego was not going to let his woman leave him for another man. In addition…His heart and feelings got involved. Hope this fills in the movie gaps.

Let's be real here, a team up between The Bride and John Wick would be amazing! I'm just sayin'!

Bill's analogy on Superman is not quite accurate, because Superman doesn't despise humans

There was a gameshow in 1960's called, "The $64,000 Question".  The correct answer to the first question was worth $1000, the second $2000, third $4000, then $8000, doubling till $64,000, with each question becoming progressively more difficult.

In terms of Beatrix getting her good ending it was entirely deserved, she killed a lot of ppl but they ALLLL knew what they signed up for. Remember…”Now go home to your Mother!!”

Pai Mei is played by Martial Arts Legend Gordon Liu.  He also played the leader of the Crazy 88's, Johnny Mo (Bald Head and Kato Mask) in Part 1.  Another Actor who played 2 roles was Michael Parks who played the Texas Ranger with all the sunglasses in his Patrol Car in Part 1 and the Pimp Estaban in Part 2.

You completely misread Pai Mei. He's not flaunting his power, he's clarifying Beatrix' lack of it, despite her previous training.

11:14 Fun Fact, Paula Schultz is Dr King Schultz's (from Django Unchained) deceased wife. Tarantino loves to make connections between his movies.

YMMV but, after watching the movie a couple times, it occurred to me that Bill kind of threw that fight at the end.  You notice that he started drinking while they were having their last talk, and kept drinking the whole time.  By the end, he was visibly, audibly drunk.  Which is when he attacked.  I think he went into the fight planning to die.  He just wanted to clear the air first.

Appreciate you following up with Vol 2

Most people miss it, but if you go back to part 1, and the animated scene where O-Ren's parents are killed, the sidekick of the man responsible, is a young Bill.

When Beatrix tried to use the rock on Pai Mei he theatended to chop off her arm. He spared her arm but said that it now belonged to him. That is the arm she used to remove Elle's eye.  So Pai Mei got his revenge on Elle for her Betrayal.

I’ll suggest a movie that isn’t very well known but it’s quite good, Way of The Gun, it’s about two criminals than kidnaps a woman that is pregnant of a mafia boss.

A third Kill Bill movie was planned. The rumors are that it occurs 20 years later when BB is fully grown.  Nikki (Vernita Green's daughter from Part 1) is fully grown and is seeking vengence for her Mother against Beatrix and BB.  She trains under Elle (who survived the Camper (and Black Mamba) and now has a Bionic eye and Sofie Fatale, now with artificial limbs. Too bad it will never be made!

thirty 41 timestamp.    The 64,000 Question was a TV game show.  I am not sure, but it may have been based on doubling money, since 64 is a power of 2.  Perhaps a contestant would go from 1000, to 2000, to 4000, to 8000, to 16000, to 32000, and finally to 64000

The way I heard it Quentin wanted it to be a single film, but the theaters didn't want to show a movie that long. I guess because the tickets were the same price as a normal movie, but the theater would be tied up for 2x as long.

There used to be an American quiz show called the $64K Question.

Watch Slumdog Millionaire next. You will understand 64 thousand dollars question joke.
