Short scene, yes, but sweet nonetheless. It's a great demonstration of Tarantino's irreverent tone, blackly comedic as yelling and upbeat poppy music plays slightly in the background. The progression of the weapon choice and Butch's subtle actions and facial expressions with each weapon really brings the scene to life, making it more meaningful when Butch finally sets his eyes on his final choice, the Kill Bill special. You can just tell there's a lot going on underneath despite at first glance being a simple, gut choice. With the choice of katana, Butch commits himself to a representation of honor, reflecting his choice not to leave Marsellus to a undignified end despite Marsellus being after him. Once again, Tarantino shows off his commitment to detail, reflecting his love of past cinema in the process.
