  • Butch is condemned for leaving his corner men to be tortured and only redeeming himself by rescuing Marsellus.
  • Vincent’s roughly 72 hours are proposed as cinema’s wildest character stretch, spanning killings, miraculous survival, cleanup, robbery, drugs, attraction, overdose rescue and his own death.
  • Eight minutes of Fabienne’s material could instead show a Tarantino-directed fatal boxing match; even a newly revealed deleted version would be exciting, though Tarantino’s limited sports interest is noted.
