Yeah, and although critics, AV Club included, act like Reservoir Dogs (and Pulp) ushered in some new wonderful era of independent cinema, it's more directly responsible for ushering in the gangster/crime boom (or, more simply, "The Tarantino-esque Knockoff Industry" ) of the mid-to-late nineties, which included a lot…
