Empire awards[edit]

Empire Awards lack credibility. They were Awards were given by a British film magazine sponsored by a company in a joint Venture with Sony Corp. they have awarded best picture Awards to movies that's Sony owns. It's hard to imagine a more direct conflict of interest. I looked at the Wikipedia pages of several of the movies that awarded best pictures to and don't even see any mention of the awards on those pages. My guess is fans of the Kill Bill movies are scraping the bottom of the barrel to come up with awards for the movie one since neither received any Academy Award nominations. The company that sponsors the awards creates the appearance of a direct conflict of interest regarding movies that it gives Awards to whether or not the is an actual conflict. For instance, it gave best picture to Men in Black, a movie sony owns and that grossed over 500 million dollars yet there is no mention of it on the Men in Black Wikipedia page.

Student project[edit]

Hi, we're a group of students from Queen Mary, University of London (Swaii400, Barry0506, DogmanElliott, Thatbeardguy, Charlie0014), tasked with making improvements to this Wikipedia page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swaii400 (talk • contribs) 16:34, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi guys. Please read WP:STUDENTS and enjoy Wikipedia. Thanks. Popcornduff (talk) 03:50, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Languages List incomplete[edit]

The list of other languages for this page is incomplete. Some Wikipedias (such as the Japanese Wikipedia) have a single article for both Volume 1 and Volume 2 combined, so the article is not linked from here. "Kill Bill" redirects here, so this is the page for the whole "Kill Bill" series. Articles for either Volume 1 itself or Volume 1 and 2 combined should be linked from here. What is the proper way to get such combined articles linked from this page? --Dwedit (talk) 20:55, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Is her name not allowed to be mentioned?[edit]

Why is the name of the bride not mentioned in the article? It is mentioned in the very first scene of the film ("Kiddo") and is completely shown on her flight ticket: Beatrix Kiddo - so why is it missing in the article? ~~~~ 2A0A:A541:12AA:0:D4F2:D2F7:7796:6DBB (talk) 17:11, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's not really part of the plot of this film. She's referred to as the Bride. Popcornfud (talk) 17:24, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Chronology of the film[edit]

The chronology of the wikipeida page does not match up with the chronology of the film. In the film it's clearly noted that The Bride first goes to kill O-ren as her name is already crossed off when The Bride kills Vernita Green. 2603:7000:A100:2D93:482A:4D81:7CD1:582F (talk) 00:28, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
