Here is an inside scoop that can’t be found anywhere else except here at Screenrant. Rumor has it that Kill Bill was originally going to be a romantic comedy. It was going to be called Kiss Bill. Alright, that’s not true. Here is what can really be said about Kill Bill. Ever since Once Upon A Time In Hollywood hit theaters, Quentin Tarantino has made multiple talk show appearances saying he will potentially make Kill Bill Vol. 3. The notion of Kill Bill’s story finally coming full circle is something that would excite any film buff. Check out the list to see seven things we do want and three things we don’t want in Kill Bill Vol. 3!
(Do) More Anime
We’re going to go ahead and call out Quentin Tarantino. The anime sequence in Kill Bill Vol. 1 isn’t gory enough. One can totally tell that scene was made by a director who probably passes out at the sight of blood.
Joking aside, there’s no question that Kill Bill’s anime sequence is one of the most memorable aspects of the original film. So it makes sense that we’d want to see more anime should Kill Bill Vol. 3 actually see the light of day. Over the years there’s been some fan theories that one of the characters in the anime sequence is actually a young Bill. Recent reports suggest that Tarantino claims that he’d like Kill Bill Vol. 3 to potentially explore Bill’s origin story. Perhaps there can be more anime sequences detailing Bill’s rise to power. Either way, people just want to see more amazingly blood soaked animated sequences within the Kill Bill universe.
(Do) Hattori Hanno
It’d be cool if Hattori Hanno made an appearance in Kill Bill Vol. 3 and continued to throw random objects at Beatrix for her to slice in half. Beatrix can move on from slicing baseballs and start cutting fruit in half. Kill Bill Vol. 3 : Fruit Ninja.
Kill Bill Vol. 1 implies that Hattori has a complicated past with Bill. These past events ultimately urge Hattori to stop making swords. The nature of Hattori’s backstory is never specified. Sometimes a character’s backstory is more fun when it’s vague. However, we believe this is a case where a more concrete backstory can make Hattori even more interesting. Kill Bill Vol. 3 would be a great opportunity to explore the drama revolving around Hattori and Bill.
(Don't) Dead Characters
Dead characters shouldn’t be in the film, but what about UN-dead characters? Imagine a Kill Bill movie with zombies. A Beatrix and Michonne team up movie writes itself.
What we really mean is that Kill Bill Vol. 3 shouldn’t bring back any dead characters from the original movies. There doesn’t need to be any “Oh so you actually thought Vernita died? Well think again!” type of moments. All of the events from the original movies need to directly inform all of the drama that takes place in Kill Bill Vol. 3.
(Do) Maya Hawke
Last time we checked Maya Hawke was trending amongst the youngsters on twitter. It’s only mandatory to add someone relevant on this list so that people will understand how hip we are. Maya Hawk is a #mood, right guys?
2019 has definitely been quite the year for Uma Thurman’s real life daughter, Maya Hawke. The star broke onto the scene with her fun performance in Stranger Things. What’s also cool is that Hawke was inducted into the TCU (Tarantino Cinematic Universe) with her performance in Once Upon a Time In Hollywood. The entire plot of the original Kill Bill movies revolves around Beatrix rescuing her daughter. If Kill Bill Vol.3 were to take place in real time that would mean Hawke is roughly the same age as Beatrix’s daughter. It’s a no brainer to cast Hawke as Beatrix’s daughter.
(Do) Fight Scenes
Imagine going to see a movie called Kill Bill, but it doesn’t have any action. That's like having a burger without cheese. Yes, everyone read that correctly.
This needs to be said upfront: Kill Bill is one of the greatest action franchises of all time. Every fight scene is shot with grace, stability, and the confidence of a director who seems like he’s been directing action movies for years. If someone didn’t know Tarantino directed Kill Bill, they’d think a veteran of kung-fu cinema was behind the project. Between the crazy 88 fight and the trailer park battle in Kill Bill Vol. 2, it’s safe to say Tarantino has his work cut out for him in Vol. 3. Tarantino is a master and there’s no doubt he’d rise to the occasion.
(Do) Dialogue
How shocking would it be if Tarantino made a silent movie? Never mind, that’s not something anybody wants. If people are paying to see a Tarantino movie then that means they’re paying to hear some amazing dialogue. Although the Kill Bill films aren’t as dialogue heavy as other Tarantino movies, that doesn’t mean the franchise isn’t full of great lines. Who can forget the famous conversation about Superman in Kill Bill Vol. 2? Hopefully Kill Bill Vol. 3 features more entertaining superhero based conversations.
(Don't) Unnecessary Scenes
Since this Tarantino guy is clearly a newbie to this directing thing we’re going to offer him some free advice. Kidding! *ducks for cover*
To say that we don’t want any unnecessary scenes in Kill Bill Vol. 3 isn’t to say that the original films had any unnecessary scenes. Rather, it’d be nice to see Kill Bill Vol. 3 replicate the lean plot structure found in Vol. 1 and 2. Audiences are looking for a fast paced and highly stylized action movie that doesn’t pull any punches. The pacing in the original movies aren’t broken. So why try to fix it?
(Do) Music
Audiences just want great music in Kill Bill Vol. 3. The cool thing about great music is that it can be found in any type of genre. For instance, Peppa Pig even makes great music. What we’re trying to say is that we want the Peppa Pig soundtrack in Kill Bill Vol. 3.
In reality, people just want more of the cooler than cool music Tarantino alway puts in his films. Kill Bill Vol. 1 has some of the most iconic needle drops in any Tarantino movie. O-Ren Ishii walking down a hallway with Battle Without Honor or Humanity playing in the background is one the most iconic action movie moments within the last twenty years. Kill Bill Vol. 3 needs to give audiences more moments like these.
(Do) Nikki
There’s a lot to be said about the famous fight scene between Beatrix and Vernita Green. However, the most alarming aspect of that sequence is that Vernita wants to serve her daughter, Nikki, cereal for lunch. For LUNCH. Is she insane?!
Nikki witnessed Beatrix killing her mother. Beatrix tells Nikki that if the girl wants revenge later in life then she’ll be waiting for their battle. It’s been sixteen years since Kill Bill Vol. 1 and audiences have also been waiting to see this fight with bated breath.
Don’t Be Tame
Imagine that if instead of blood, confetti had sprayed out of all the severed limbs in Kill Bill. That sounds kind of amazing. However, people don’t watch Kill Bill for confetti, but rather for its copious amounts of blood.
The great thing about Kill Bill is that although it’s a series with a lot of gore, these aren’t movies strictly designed for gore hounds. Anybody can get a kick out of the insanely over the top and hilarious ways Tarantino kills off his characters.
