our badass hero's final showdown


is against two 100lb girls and a 150 lb lanky guy... and the dog does half the work.. Its so underwhelming...

I get why of course that was the final scene and the historical reimagination of events. still this film would have been a 9/10 vs an 8/8.5 if that was different.

also I skip past all of Robbies scenes.

tex 150 lbs?
oh hell no, try a buck 30 with a full colon

Yeah, but the two hippie girls were wild-ass psychopaths, and they didn't put up a very good fight, especially the redhead who got her face bashed in.

Tarantino is famous for blood and guts. I'm surprised the idiotic flamethrower in the swimming pool struck you as realistic.

Well, in real life, I think it was two 100lb girls and a lanky guy of some possibly greater weight -- versus TWO men (Jay Sebring and Voytek Frykoswki) and two women(Sharon Tate and Abagail Folger) and....they killed all four of their victims with ease. How? By having Tex SHOOT the two men from the outset, immobilzing them and/or killing them. I can't remember which. They finished off the women with knives. (And they killed one more young guy - a random visitor -- outside the house by shooting him, too. )

In the movie, Tex has a gun, too, but superstrong Brad and his killer dog neutralize that gun immediately. Which makes the movie TRULY a fantasy.

He was tripping on acid the whole time and wasn't sure if it was reality or not.

They also had weapons, Pitt was unarmed unless you count a can of dog food

So, if the hero outweighs and outreaches the killer bad guy, he should step aside like a gentleman until someone of a more fair weight and size arrives to take over.
