The bunny posts an intelligent, well-researched relevant helpful topic and this is what he gets. Some kid wondering in from a race to 100 thread with a huh - not even a well formed question.

Anyway everyone in the room gave in to my friend's point and he broke into his victory dance. Being a guy, this might have been more appropriate for him
But he wanted to drive home his "made in India" point and did this instead.
Since then I've quit drinking.

such quality post material should seldom be wasted.
Especially since I had to give up on drink. No hangover worse than watching a bad dance.

Should be your last hmm on my threads. Might have been funny the first time (not) but it gets tiresome after that. Sooooo tiresome.
Superman is taken from INDIAN SHAKTIMAN!

Wow, had to search for that one.

Unfortunately it seems much more recent than sups unless a time machine was involved.

quentin does admit some inspiration from other indian movies
https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movies/news/Kamal-inspires-Quentin-Tarantino/articleshow/14987054.cms
apparently this scene
So amidst a drunken discussion of how Bollywood, kollywood, tollywood, mollywood & dark red meranti rip off Hollywood, I was describing a funny scene from Quentin's 1995 movie 4 rooms to the room, when my Indian friend tells me the scene was 'made in India' and copied by Hollywood. This is the scene.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Rooms
And the earlier Tamil movie he referred to was this one which was supposedly shot in Singapore in 1979.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninaithale_Inikkum_(1979_film)
So besides learning of a new car brand called Toyoto, what say you folk? Rip off or not? Or is gambling on the little finger a common movie theme? Did Quentin credit his inspiration ?
