In Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill" films, the decision to censor the character known as "The Bride's" real name with a crude 'beep' sound is a stylistic choice that aligns with the film's homage to various genres, including martial arts, exploitation, and grindhouse cinema.
With Beatrix wounded and lying on the floor, Bill shot her in the head. Beatrix was put into a coma for four years, during which her child, B.B, was delivered successfully. B.B was raised by Bill, and when Beatrix woke up, she plotted her revenge against the whole Deadly Viper Squad and Bill himself.
Bill was basically grooming BB even from the tender age of 4 to be an assassin when she grew up. He already has a history of recruiting young women, all of whom he seems to feel genuine love for, into his assassin squad.
Perla Haney-Jardine (born July 17, 1997) is an Brazilian-born American actress. She is best known for her role in Kill Bill Vol. 2 as B.B., the four-year-old daughter of Beatrix "The Bride" Kiddo and Bill.

Will Kill Bill 3 happen?
Cancel the rampage: Quentin Tarantino says that 'Kill Bill 3' isn't happening. Audiences won't be treated to a third roaring rampage of revenge - and maybe that's no bad thing...
In Mexico, the Bride tracks Bill to a hotel and discovers that their daughter B.B. is still alive, now four years old. The Bride kills Bill using the five-point-palm exploding heart technique, taught to her by Pai Mai. Beatrix leaves with B.B. to start a new life.
The Bride's name being bleeped out in Kill Bill has seen different interpretations over the years, but it's all about identity. Before The Bride's mission against Bill, she was part of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad under the code name Black Mamba, as she was considered the deadliest one of the group.
Although Kill Bill by Quentin Tarantino tells a story with some similarities, such as the notebooks in which the brides cross off their victims' names once they have killed them, Tarantino has stated that he has never seen The Bride Wore Black.
A car accident during the filming nearly killed Thurman, raising concerns about negligence and exploitation in the production process. Controversies surrounding Tarantino spitting on and choking Thurman during action scenes add to the troubling reality behind the making of Kill Bill.
Bill asks if Bud has kept up with his sword play, to which Bud remarks that he pawned his Hanzo sword. This we later find out is a lie, so clearly Bud is only saying this to wound his brother by leading him to believe he sold a priceless gift from his brother for only a couple hundred bucks.
Quentin Tarantino confirms that Elle Driver from Kill Bill is still alive, hinting at her potential return in a speculated Kill Bill 3. Elle Driver's fate was intentionally left ambiguous in Kill Bill 2, allowing for discussions and debates surrounding her character.
During their days as members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, Elle and Beatrix had a hostile relationship, both competing for Bill's affection and favor as his second-in-command.
Each member has the codename of a snake: Bill is Snake Charmer, Elle Driver is California Mountain Snake, O-Ren Ishii is Cottonmouth, Vernita Green is Copperhead, Budd is Sidewinder, and since she's the deadliest assassin, Beatrix Kiddo is named after the deadliest snake: Black Mamba.
Summary. Kill Bill sacrifices realism for stylized action, capturing the over-the-top homage to Tarantino's favorite childhood movies. The sword fight in the Crazy 88 scene may lack believability and realistic technique, but it still delivers impressive and thrilling action.
Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill, originally distributed as two films in 2003 and 2004, was hailed upon its release as a landmark feminist action film, one that would enable women to take on the agentive, powerful roles typically reserved for male characters in cinema.
The 5.6. 7.8's became known in the West after their appearance in Kill Bill Vol. 1, in which they performed "I Walk Like Jayne Mansfield", "I'm Blue" (a cover of The Ikettes' song) and "Woo Hoo" in a Tokyo club, "The House Of Blue Leaves".
The reason he buried her alive instead of just letting her walk away is because he valued his own life, and he didn't want to die either. So with the flashlight and knife, at least she had some kind of chance. And knowing Beatrix, being buried alive was most likely just a simple obstacle for her.
While Tarantino movies are always stylish and visually pleasing, Kill Bill stands out because of the diversity of its locations, its varied use of color, and the creativity/playfulness of its editing.
Volume 2 is the second of two Kill Bill films produced simultaneously; the first, Volume 1, was released six months earlier. They were originally set for a single release, but the film, with a runtime of over four hours, was divided in two.
The director admitted he hadn't pursued other stories in the Kill Bill universe because making both movies had exhausted him. Even with his creative enthusiasm and outlined concepts, a properly made Volume 3 was too intimidating to tackle at the time.
Bill explains to B.B. that he shot her mother because he was saddened when Beatrix abandoned him and angry when he found her engaged to be married to another man. The Bride spends good time with her daughter, who falls asleep.
Budd lies simply to hurt Bill. Obviously Bill and Budd are feuding and Bill must have done something to Budd (seeing as how Bill says, "Can't we just put the past in the past?"). The sword was a huge gift to Budd; to tell Bill that he sold it was just meant to be a crushing blow to his heart.
