I made the mistake of trying to watch “Kill Bill”, one of my favorite series of movies, on cable tonight. After suffering through commercials and some horrible edits, I decided it I’d acquire a normal movie copy later on. The edits that werre made to the movie so it could air on TV had me cracking up though. One example was in the long term care hospital the protagonist was staying at with the character “Buck” who “liked to fuck”. He had the word “FUCK” tattooed across one of his hand’s knuckles and his car was named and branded as the “Pussy Wagon”. Since this kind of thing was obviously too much for TV audiences, anytime the word “fuck” was said, it was dubbed over with the word “party”, and his branded car and keychain that said “Pussy Wagon” were overlaid on the screen as “Party Wagon”. It was terribly obtrusive and silly, but it had me laughing at least.
