Best Tarantino Character?

[TheNuke]

Out of the universe of Taratino who's the single best character?

There's a few true blue super cool pimps he's brought to the silver screen:

-Sex Machine (From Dusk Till Dawn)
-Mr. Blonde (Reservoir Dogs)
-Floyd (True Romance)

Anyone got any opinions?

[love broker]

i am a big michael madsen fan so naturally mr blonde

also floyd and alabama from true romance.

I won't say that i am anti pulp fiction but i like dogs and romance much better

the gekko brothers as well are true originals.

I really like the characters in Pulp Fiction, specially the boxer (performed by Bruce Willis) and the ganster played by John Travolta.

[TobyDammit]

Mr. Pink, for sure, STEVE BUSCEMI RULES! I was not aware that Mr. Blonde was a pimp, am I missing something.

[love broker]

can anyone confrim or deny-

i read that michael madsen turned down john travolta's part in pulp.

is that why travolta is Vince Vega in pulp and madsen is Vic Vega in dogs?

Can anyone help me with my quandry?

Best Tarantino Character: Drexl Spivey in "True Romance". Played by Gary Oldman.

[In the Night Club after Drexel has beaten Clarence.]
Drexel Spivey: He must have thought it was white boy day. It ain't white boy day, is it? Marty: No man, It ain't white boy day.

Drexl uses the phrase, "from a diddled-eyed joe to a damned if I know" which was also used by the Mr. Orange's mentor in Reservoir Dogs.

Now of course I love all of Tarantino's characters, and in fact can't think of a single character he's created that isn't superfly, but my all time numero uno fave has to be:

Jules Winnfield in Pulp Fiction as played by Samuel L. Jackson

Jules Winnefield- "Say what again! I dare you"

Sex Machine-just damn funny!

[DaMovieMan]

Im with Quentin on both aspects - Tarantino's characters are all cool and great!! but the one that stands out the most is Sam as Jules Winfield!!!! He is the best best best!!

other:
-Mr. Pink
-Ordell Robbie
-Mr. Blonde

[DireWolf]

Vincent Vega, Jules, Mia Wallace, Butch...almost everyone from Pulp Fiction

Mr. White and Clooney's character from Dusk are also cool.

[AntonioDelLago]

Vincent Vega and Mia Wallace (John Travolta and Uma Thurman) in PULP FICTION.

Max Cherry (Robert Forster) in JACKIE BROWN.

Mr. White (Harvey Keitel) in RESERVOIR DOGS.

The Wolf (Harvey Keitel) in PULP FICTION.

Hmmm..

Alabama, Drexl and Floyd in True Romance.
Mr Pink in Reservoir Dogs.
Jules, Mia Wallace, Vincent Vega, Butch, the cleaner (Harvey Keitel) and the character that Quentin Tarantino played himself in Pulp Fiction.
Mickey, Mallory and Scagnetti in Natural Born Killers.
Jackie, Max Cherry and Beaumont in Jackie Brown.

[Gore 4 All]

Sex Machine in From Dusk Till Dawn

Hands down the best Tarintino character ever!

TOM SAVINI RULES!!!

[the_invisible_inspector]

The coolest character in Tarantino movies is the "Wolf"

[playgames]

[KornKidJedi]

Mr.White
Mr.Orange
Mr.Brown
Jimmie
Jules
Vincent Vega
Sex Machine
The Gecko Brothers
The Wolf
Fabinne(spelling)
Pumpkin
Hunnie Bunnie

[loner]

Max Cherry in Jackie Brown. Just an average joe trying to get through life. And Fabienne. Mmmmmm...so sweet and so beautiful.

[misha]

Yes, love broker, Michael Madsen was supposed to get the role of Vincent Vega in "Pulp" (before production got underway) but he and Tarantino got in a huge fight over something (can't memba wot) and now they apparently hate each other - so i can see why he didn't want the part, nor did Tarantino want to give it to him.

Mr Blonde is still my all-time fave though
Mr Pink also rocks
Mr Orange
Mr White
Hunny Bunny and Pumpkin
Alabama
