This poll is a result of the following discussion.

I think I'll make 3 pages for this...

Grindhouse: Double Feature (which will include the fake trailers and links to the following pages)
Grindhouse: Planet Terror
Grindhouse: Death Proof

I think that would work. If you guys have any other ideas on how to work this film let me know.

I don't like that. It should be all on one page, with 1 big count. I see Grindhouse as an anthology, that melds into eachother. Both Death Proof and Planet Terror feature some of the same characters, the movies taking place one after another.

Yet they are touted on the trailer as two separate films. That is the reason I did it both ways...separate & combined to please both sides. They also have separate titles as well as seperate posters & directors. Many films have overlapping characters (The "Transporter" in Collateral) so that logic just does not work for me.

This is one we may have to take a vote on.

Since currently we only have the count for Death Proof and one of the fake trailers I'll leave it at that until we get this worked out. By the time we have the rest of the count I can always change it to which ever way the vote ultimately goes.

Members please vote and add you opinion on this subject to the debate.

Another point in favor of 3 pages in my opinion is the fact that they have released separate soundtracks as well as if they are separate films (which they actually are)...

Grindhouse: Planet Terror...

Death Proof...

Having them released together is really more of a "gimmick" than anything else. They still are two different films with all the aspects to two different films but as a "double feature".

I just want one big Grindhouse count. We can do seperate pages, but when the Grindhouse is counted for the top kills page, i want it all together.

A new development in favor of 3 pages is the fact that the Weinstein Company, due to poor box office, may be set to release these as two separate films in the overseas market and possibly even re-release them separately domestically as well.

If that is the case there is no question that there will be 3 pages.

I always planned to have that of course and without question.

Grindhouse: Double Feature (which will include the fake trailers and links to the following pages) = One Big Grindhouse count.

It's just the "details" that would be on the other pages with both segment's final tallies being added together on the "Double Feature" page plus the fake trailers.
