I like Pulp Fiction in a weird sort of way I guess.

Pulp fiction had some nice dialogue to it. There was an interplay of tension yet social playfulness to some of it (not all). But most of the plot, like some of the dialogue, were like most of his movies (the few that I have seen, admittedly); ridiculous scenarios that mock stereotyped social roles and eye-rolling attempts to shock and provoke a cynical disregard for human value.
No surprise that most of his major films were produced by his business partner, Harvey Weinstein.
I like the joke about the three tomatoes.
Actually the whole retro cafe and stars of a bygone era was kind of fun. The dialogue, as you say, was pretty playful and fun.
Yeah that seen with the Dixie Boys was so over the top it was laughable. Those boys never ever moved to Los Angeles. What you have instead are leftist criminals kidnapping people off the street every day in LA.
