Pulp Fiction - Easter Eggs & Hidden Details
Easter Eggs
The Big Kahuna Burger
This fictional Hawaiian-themed fast-food chain is a recurring brand in Quentin Tarantino's films. After its memorable appearance in "Pulp Fiction," it is also mentioned or seen in "Reservoir Dogs," "From Dusk Till Dawn," and "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," helping to create a shared "Tarantino Universe."
The Vega Brothers Connection
Vincent Vega (John Travolta) from "Pulp Fiction" is the brother of Vic Vega, a.k.a. Mr. Blonde (Michael Madsen), from Tarantino's debut film, "Reservoir Dogs." Tarantino once planned a prequel film centered on the two brothers, but it never came to fruition.
Robert Rodriguez Directs Tarantino's Scene
Fellow filmmaker and close friend Robert Rodriguez directed the scene in which Tarantino's character, Jimmie, appears. This was a friendly collaboration between the two directors, who have often worked on each other's projects.
Mia Wallace's TV Pilot Description
Mia describes the failed TV pilot she starred in, "Fox Force Five," about a team of female secret agents. The description of the team members bears a striking resemblance to the members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad in Tarantino's later film, "Kill Bill," which also stars Uma Thurman.
