CONCLUSION

The message of the films that he has written and directed is clear within itself. Based on the concepts of textual poaching and fandom; if we were to look at it as if he was a fan, there are two sides to this argument because to what extent would one person class Tarantino as a fan and what would he have to do to be qualified as a textual poacher. Every person looks at the meaning of fandom to a different extent. As de Certeau said, "readers are travellers" (Jenkins 2013, p.24) everyone will look at things differently depending on what suits their life most. Looking at Pulp Fiction as the main text along with Kill Bill by Tarantino, it is clear that Tarantino is a textual poacher based on the texts that have been analysed throughout this essay. If he poached the text with the intention of liking something, just like others do, he would not get paid and would have recreated it into his own version whereas he makes them look the same. Not only did he poach the texts, he has also poached the community because he has featured anything that he has poached in his film and made it his own, the certain text that he poached then belongs the the community that Tarantino has made by poaching.
