Mr. Pink: [about Mr. Blonde] He seems okay now, but he was crazy in the store.
Mr. White: This is what he was doing…
[mimics randomly shooting innocent bystanders]
Mr. White: Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
Mr. Blonde: Yeah, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam. I told ’em not to touch the alarm… but they touched it. If they hadn’t done what I told ’em not to do, they’d still be alive.
Mr. White: [clapping] My fucking hero.
Mr. Blonde: [taking a bow] Thanks.
Mr. White: That’s your excuse for going on a kill-crazy rampage?
Mr. Blonde: I don’t like alarms, Mr. White.
-Reservoir Dogs (1992)
Mr Blue, Mr Brown, Mr White, Mr Pink, Mr Blonde and Mr Orange. Those are the only names they know each other by. They are gathered to perform a heist, let us just hope none of them are undercover deputies that already have told the law about their plans to rob the diamond store…
What to do with six identical western bandit models? Go Reservoir Dogs. The black suits turned into black dusters and hats, their colourful names became shirts, facial kerchief/mask/whatever it is called and the ring detail on their hats.
Now they are so much more interesting as individual gang members rather than just some random cowboys gone bad.
Well, to me at least.
