Mistakes
When Butch is getting dressed in the motel room, Fabienne is sitting on bed telling him what she will order for breakfast. As she tells him, in a front shot of her, her right arm is down and her right hand is resting on her ankles. It then cuts to a behind shot of her and her head is now resting on her right hand.

Directed by Quentin Tarantino, starring Amanda Plummer, Bruce Willis, Eric Stoltz, Harvey Keitel, John Travolta, Rosanna Arquette, Samuel L. Jackson, Tim Roth, Uma Thurman, Ving Rhames (add more)
In Reservoir Dogs, Nice Guy Eddie arranges for Mr. Orange (Tim Roth, all shot to pieces) to be treated by a nurse he knows named Bonnie. And, of course, in Pulp Fiction, Jimmy's wife is a nurse named Bonnie.
Every time you see a pack of cigarettes, it's the same brand: Red Apple.
Butch smokes "Red Apple" cigarettes. The same brand is smoked by Tim Roth's character in Four Rooms (1995). Red Apple cigarettes appear in all of Tarantino's films.
Danny Devito was an executive producer on this film. In Devito's film "Twins", the names of the two main characters were Vincent and Julius.
The weapons Butch goes through were all put in by Tarantino as an homage to some of his favorite movies of the past. The bat represents the four by four that Bufford Pusser used in "Walking Tall", the chainsaw was for what Leatherface uses in "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre", and the samurai sword was used in general to all old kung-fu movies.
Vincent Vega doesn't have much luck with bathrooms: He emerges from the bathroom at Mia Wallace's place to find her overdosing. He is heavily criticised by Jules in Jimmy's bathroom for soiling the towel. He emerges from the bathroom at the coffee shop to find a robbery is occurring. After he shoots Brett, a guy comes out of the bathroom with a "hand cannon" and tries to shoot him. Finally, he emerges from the bathroom at Butch Coolidge's flat and is shot dead by Butch.
Vincent and Jule's discussion in the car about Europe and especially Amsterdam can be linked to Quentin Tarrantino's love for that city. He used to visit Amsterdam a lot and even lived there for awhile. All the stuff Vincent tells Jules about Amsterdam is true by the way.
Kind of funny thing to notice. In the end credits, the Coffee Shop Manager is credited as just Coffee Shop. Quentin Tarantino said this was because when Tim Roth puts the gun to his head and says "Are you gonna be a hero?", the manager only says "No, I'm just a Coffee Shop-" before Tim Roth cuts him off and starts yelling again.
Quentin Tarantino originally wanted to cast himself as Lance (Vincent's drug dealer), but eventually cast himself as Jimmie because he wanted to be strictly behind the camera during the scene of Mia's drug overdose.
Quentin Tarantino wrote "The Wolf" character specifically for Harvey Keitel.
Phil LaMarr, who plays Marvin (the black guy, who gets shot in his face) is actually a member of the "MadTV" cast. Once MadTV had a skit called "Gump Fiction" (a crossover of "Forrest Gump" and "Pulp Fiction" - you gotta see this skit. Very funny.). In this skit he also plays Marvin, fearfully cowering like in the movie.
Quentin Tarantino must have had a childhood bully by the name of Marvin. In this movie the black guy who gets shot in the face is named Marvin. In Reservoir Dogs, Marvin is the name of the cop Mr. Blonde tortures.
A scene removed from the final cut of the film involves Jules trying to consider what to do while Pumpkin and Honey Bunny are robbing the diner. In the scene, Jules points his gun at the bottom of the table and fires up twice, hitting Pumpkin and killing him. He then spins around and shoots Honey Bunny three times, killing her. As she falls to the floor her gun goes off and hits the long haired Yuppie scum, who dies screaming on the floor. The scene then cuts back to Jules talking to Pumpkin in the diner, revealing the shootings to have happened entirely in Jules' mind.
The clocks in the pawnshop are set to 4:20. It is a widely acknowledged misconception that all of the clocks in the film are set to this time.
The Statler Brothers song that Bruce Willis was singing along to on the way back to his apartment had a line "smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo". In the movie Die Hard With a Vengeance, there's a scene in which he tells Samuel L. Jackson that he'd rather be home "smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo".
Jules' "Bad Motherf**ker" wallet actually belongs to Quentin Tarantino. The red convertible also belonged to Quentin, but it was stolen.
Harvey Keitel practically repeats his role as Victor the Cleaner from "Point of No Return."
When Vincent takes Mia to Lance's house to give her the adrenaline shot, two board games are visible in the background. They are "Operation" and "Life" - appropriate.
The film's producer Lawrence Bender is one of the long-haired yuppies at the coffee shop.
The lady that is shot in the street by Marcellus Wallace when he is trying to catch Butch is the very same lady that Mr. Pink pulls out of her car in Reservoir Dogs, another Quentin Tarantino film. Her name is Delorise Baker.
