The Holy Grail, I always thought.
But knowing QT its probably a nod back to some old 60's b-movie.

I think your friend is partially right.
Marsellus wasn't the devil. According to this website, he sold his soul to the devil and bought it back. The briefcase contained his soul.
That's why the combination was 666 (the briefcase belonged to the devil) and he had that band-aid on the back of his head (that's where the devil is supposed to take your soul). :ph34r:

in a recent interview, qt stated that u were supposed to use your imagination to put something in the case, like in old cartoons. Samuel L Jackson said in between takes he saw it was just a golden light.

This is the first time I've read about the Marcellus' soul story and pretty much the first time I've been enlightened that there are consipracy theories pertaining to what exactly was in the briefcase. The whole selling and rebuying of the soul makes sense. Now that I know about it I can't help thinking that the subplot of Tony getting thrown off the building ties into Marcellus and his soul.

Personally I go for the 1944 S501XX by levis, I have the remakes(which yes I can afford) but i also have 1 pair of unworn ones original (999,999 japanese yen in 2001). As for evisu, they were ok a few years ago, but now they split production between China and Japan. If you had a pair made in china that would be the same fabric as used in diesel jeans, which is of a lesser quality. BTW evisu in japan sells for about 25,000 yen. But anyways its nice to have a seagul painted on the ass and basically copy all the designs from levis, isnt it.

the band-aid was put on the back of marcessos head because in the scene when he gives butch the money all u c is the back of his head and the actor who plays him has a tatoe there and qt didnt want the audience to b put off so he put a band-aid over it. the thengs about the devils soul and stuff was just made up by fans after it and qt neva imagined it o b like that. i heard this from a interview i donwloaded of qt tllking about pf!
