Picture

I am trying to get a picture of George Clooney's tattoo in the movie. Can anyone send me copy of the tattoo? I would really appreciate it.

Hi. I took a few screen captures from the movie. They're not the greatest but here you go... http://www.sightssounds.net/tattoo1.htm

Reception

Most film articles on Wikipedia have a section that describes how the film was received, by critics and by audiences. The only thing this article has is an implication that it did well enough to have two sequels. Any info on reception? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.151.13.191 (talk) 19:38, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

FDTD spawned a sequel and a prequel, not two of either. in the reception part it cited that both sequels were poorly received with only a citation to the sequel Texas Blood Money, and no reference to the prequel (The Hangman's Daughter) i have changed the sentence to read both were poorly received, but it still lacks a citation for the prequel.

It should be "Till"

"From Dusk till Dawn" doesn't look right. Till should have a capital T, not lower case. From Dusk Till Dawn.

No. "Till" is slang for the preposition "until." Prepositions in titles are not capitalized. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.215.121.82 (talk) 04:14, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The "Pussy" Script

Note: Part of the spoilers are listed below.

As the gang head into "The Titty Twisters", there was a man constantly boasting the "pussies" (read: prostitutes) they have. Can anyone who has the full form of this script also put that into the "Trivia" section, please? --Blackhawk charlie2003 12:20, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Synopsis

I don't have time at the moment to clean up the page, but someone needs to clean up that plot synospsis, cause it needs paragraphing and paraphrasing to all hell. If anyone can do that...well, fantastic.

Hey, I paragraphed the synposis I wrote but I really have no clue what paraphrasing is. Raven6247 17:03, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't it better before? No offense Raven, but you probably don't need to detail every scene in the movie. AaronCBurke 19:38, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

references to evil dead

i've seen evil dead at least ten times, what's this about From Dusk Til Dawn having references to evil dead? --AlexOv Shaolin 05:12, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hideous plot is no more

I have removed the disgusting plot synopsis, by basically deleting about 98% of it and adding a sentence of my own.

The plot's still bad, but at least it's a huge improvement. The old plot was literally the worst thing I've ever read on Wikipedia. It explained every scene of the film, right to the end, including quotes! Terrible.

Anywho, I've not cited any references, but neither had the person who sat and typed out everything they could see in the film as they watched it. DanTheShrew (talk) 11:38, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why change it back?

I know my plot is crap, but why change it back to that abomination?

At least leave me a comment on this page to explain your actions. DanTheShrew (talk) 11:43, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A form message telling me that my improvement is an act of vandalism is not constructive ctiticism.

How could anyone (other than the author of the plot I'm trying to remove) not agree that a couple of sentences describing the film is better than the novel adaptation attempted on the page here. DanTheShrew (talk) 11:46, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Banned in Ireland

Do we have more information - why banned, why lifted ? Does that one line warrant being in the opening section ? -- Beardo (talk) 14:48, 12 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article is ruined !!!

I dont have time and interest in checking all of this article but here is some problems with it:

what is genre of this film at last !? Action Comedy,or Action Comedy Horror or ..... it seems there is edit war about it
Where is the picture of dance and if its deleted why the description about it is still there ?!
Is it vandalism !? because I cant find Quentin Tarantino nomination for Razzie Award !!!

--WikiBahal (talk) 22:08, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, seriously

Action-comedy? I've seen this film. There's very little humour in it. Tons of horrible murders, a rape, two of the -protaganists- set an innocent human on fire... Lots42 (talk) 01:59, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Titty Twister

Is it just me or does the rear of the Titty Twister resemble The Tower of Babel? – Lionel ^(talk) 10:59, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just you. Lots42 (talk) 03:57, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
