Those Pulp Fiction Nods In Captain Marvel Might Not Have Been Intentional
Warning: The following contains minor spoilers for Carol Danvers' origin story!
While journeying back to the 1990s in the MCUs Captain Marvel, some eagle-eyed fans noticed that the film contained what appeared to be a few nods to one of that decades most iconic films, Quentin Tarantinos Pulp Fiction. A shot of Ben Mendelsohns Talos sipping a shake through a straw was reminiscent of hitman Jules menacingly washing down Bretts Big Kahuna Burger with a Sprite. And shots of Nick Fury and Phil Coulson in their car looked very similar to shots of Jules and John Travoltas Vincent Vega driving through the Valley in a Chevy Nova.
Given that Captain Marvel is set in the 90s and Samuel L. Jackson is in both films, these Pulp Fiction nods seemed intentional. But that might not be the case. Speaking exclusively with CinemaBlends ReelBlend podcast, Captain Marvel cinematographer Ben Davis addressed the apparent Pulp Fiction nods:
I think those are more coincidences. I mean the fact that Sam [Jackson] is driving the car [laughs] may be a reason why Theres only so many places you can put a camera to cover a car scene. And a young Samuel L. Jacksons driving the car, I think thats purely coincidence. Ben [Mendelsohn] drinking the shake, I think that was pure Ben. And, youll have to ask him that question, but it wouldnt surprise me at all if he wasnt riffing on that idea.
Ben Davis seems to think that it is perhaps the coincidence of seeing Samuel L. Jackson driving the car and looking younger that creates a natural association in your head with one of the prolific actors most iconic roles. And as Ben Davis told ReelBlend, there are only so many places you can put a camera to film a shot of two people in a car, so the similar framing is more a product of practicality than anything else.
You could probably find shots from a dozen other movies that look just like the one in Pulp Fiction, but they didnt have a young Samuel L. Jackson driving a car so the possible reference wasnt noticed. As far as Ben Mendelsohns Talos drinking the shake in Maria Rambeaus home, Ben Davis suspects that action was purely the product of Ben Mendelsohn, who was a highlight of the film as the Skrull Talos.
Ben Mendelsohn may have had that iconic Pulp Fiction scene in mind but if so he wasnt made aware of it. Though Ben Davis concedes that these nods may have been intentional:
No, there are well there may have been between Ben, and Anna [Boden] and Ryan [Fleck]. That may well have happened, that conversation, but not that I was aware of. But it wouldnt surprise me at all.
If there was a conscious effort to pay homage to Pulp Fiction, it seems that Captain Marvels cinematographer wasnt let in on it. That doesnt mean it wasnt the case though. As Ben Davis said, the framing for the car scene was one of a limited number of setups you can do but it is possible that directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck gave Ben Mendelsohn the direction to emulate Jules from Pulp Fiction.
You can listen to Captain Marvel cinematographer Ben Davis entire conversation with ReelBlend below.
If intentional, this wouldnt be the first Pulp Fiction reference in an MCU movie either. In Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Nick Furys tombstone has part of the quote from Ezekiel 25:17 that Pulp Fictions Jules recites before putting a cap in someone and philosophizes about at the end of the film.
Ultimately, even if there was no plan to reference Pulp Fiction, the shots now stand as a happy little accident, evoking a 1994 classic in a film set in 1995. But if Carol Danvers shows up in Avengers: Endgame and shoves a needle full of adrenaline into someones heart, you know someone at Marvel is probably stoked to see Once Upon a Time In Hollywood.
