During the promotion of 'Inglourious Basterds,' Quentin Tarantino has told reporters that once his job with this film is done he plans to revisit and expand two of his movies, including a final 'Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair" and eventually the theatrical experience of 'Grindhouse', with a view to an eventual Blu-ray release.
'Kill Bill: the Whole Bloody Affair' is a cut that combines volumes 1 and 2 of the movie, and has some substantial differences with the versions released in the US and Europe, especially in the battle at the House of Blue Leaves. It has long since been rumored for home video, but never actually released.
Tarantino said that a "whole new section" has been done and added to the anime sequence. "I actually wrote a much longer script for the anime section during O-Ren's revenge chapter," explains the filmmaker. "Remember the guy with the long hair that kills her father? It's like, what happened to that dude? Well, I wrote it and it was the biggest, most elaborate thing I wrote — her taking him down."
Tarantino had the whole script for this sequence "written out shot for shot" but it was never produced at the time. Now Tarantino has persuaded producer Harvey Weinstein to make and insert this expanded sequence, and studio Production IG is animating it. Tarantino says that as soon as 'Inglourious Basterds' is "officially" behind him, he'll do the final supervision on the material.
On the other hand, it seems that the long-awaited theatrical cut of 'Grindhouse' might be farther off than we expected. Tarantino admitted, "We've just been lazy getting around to 'Grindhouse', the full edition." He didn't seem to be in a hurry, seeing that the theatrical cut has proven to be very popular with midnight showings all around the world.
