Tarantino talks abandoned idea

From dark horizons, "For many years director Quentin Tarantino would bring up the idea of a film focussing on the two Vega brothers - Michael Madsen in "Reservoir Dogs" and John Travolta in "Pulp Fiction." The talk never eventuated though and slowly died away. Now, QT tells Slashfilm what might have been:

"I even had a title for it. It was called Double V Vega. It actually would have taken place during the time Vincent was in Amsterdam, when he was running one of Marcellus' clubs in Amsterdam. And Vic goes to visit him," revealed Tarantino.

He adds "But we're a little older now, and since they both died - it would have to be a prequel. I actually came up with a way I could have done it, even being older and dead where they all had older brothers and both of their brothers got together because the two guys died. And they wanted revenge or something like that. But now, they [the actors] are too old for that... I got to say, it's kind of unlikely now."

Well heck, there's my John Woo reference right there. Not quite guns to the head, serving tea and carrots, but it'll do.

I should really see R-dogs again. Only saw it the once. On a date, no less.

There wasn't a second date. She was a bad kisser.
