* YouLookFamiliar: According to WordOfGod, ''Pulp Fiction'' is set in the same universe as ''Film/ReservoirDogs''. Several actors (Creator/HarveyKeitel, Creator/TimRoth, Tarantino himself) return as different characters. If Michael Madsen was cast as Vincent Vega (see above), presumably this would have made Vincent and Vic (Mr. Blonde from ''Film/ReservoirDogs'') twins.

* FollowTheLeader: ''Pulp Fiction'' was arguably the single most influential movie of Main/TheNineties, at least as far as the indie scene is concerned. The number of copycat imitators that followed in its wake, attempting to emulate its dialogue, non-linear storytelling, and overall tone, cannot be overstated. Filmmakers like Creator/GuyRitchie practically built their entire careers off of the influence of this movie.
