The bumblebee jumpsuit?
At first the answer to this one seemed clear to me - in cases of such obvious homage, the original flavor always wins this game. It wins because it was first and so cool then that somebody years later felt the need to pay tribute. But then I got to thinking and I do wonder if Tarantino, that God of Recycling, doesn't sometimes (often) make something even better out of old trash and if this wasn't one of those cases. Isn't Uma's Beatrix Kiddo a bigger badder cinematic-icon-for-the-ages than Bruce Lee's Billy Lo? Well I'll leave that question to y'all...

What's wrong with you people? Quintin would shame you for not picking Bruce.
Gotta go with Bruce.
That being said, I have always liked the zip-up style of the top on Uma's better. And of course her matching shoes...
I swear, about 3 out of every 5 things I like in QT movies are directly ripped from...err, are homages to something else. I...uh...had no idea about the suit...
