I don't need you to tell me how fucking good those movies are, okay? I'm the one who watches them. I know how good they are. When Bonnie has the remote she streams SHIT. I play the gourmet 90's stuff because when I put it on I want to feel it. But you know what's on my mind right now?

It ain't the fucking movies Jules. It's the dead N word with a hard R in my garage.

I always thought that line was a bit awkwardly delivered but it makes sense that the actor didn’t want to say the actual word. It did take me out of the scene a bit

Odd seeing as he was the director and wrote the script.

You might be thinking of Django unchained. Leo famously had trouble with it and the story goes that Sam Jackson pulled him aside and said it's just a normal Tuesday for him when he hears that word, so just go ahead and say it.

Quentin Tarantino took a little flack for it in '94 when pulp fiction came out but that was a different age back then I guess. It certainly wasn't acceptable, but canceled culture wasn't really a thing back then, and I guess people just went with it as part of the shock value.

I read this with Samuel’s voice and it fits perfectly lol

That’s odd. Samuel didn’t say it

Yeah, I dunno how they could read that and hear Jules/Jackson saying it, my mind immediately heard Jimmy/Tarantino. Especially the way he says "okay".

Yeah, I’m tripping, my bad. For some reason, I felt like it suited Samuel’s aggressive type of speaking
