Loudmouth Quentin Tarantino has been quiet and recent months, no? Maybe it’s cause he’s working on a new animated section of “Kill Bill” for a special extended DVD version starring David Carradine’s Bill character in what might be an origin sequence? Sounds that way. Uma Thurman recently said, “Right now he’s putting the two films together with an intermission with an added anime sequence he had already written. So additional stories are in there, in animation.”
Two years ago Tarantino announced that he was going to make anime films about the origins of Beatrix Kiddo (Uma’s character) and Bill, but maybe now it’s just going to be Bill? “It has nothing to do with me,” Thurman said coyly. “It has to do with another character. You’ll have to see.”
All we know is that it takes away from “Inglorious Bastards,” a WWII epic we want to see only because Tarantino’s talked it up for like what, 8 years? Dude works at a sloooow clip. [MTV]
