The only problem with Grindhouse was Death Proof. It was B-movie-like, but it doesn't excuse it from being excessively masturbatory with the dialogue. Tarantino loves his writing, but its often decent enough to be watchable. The dialogue in Death Proof was not only shitty, but even more excessive than usual. It just sucked.
The thing that boggles my mind about what is considered a B-movie these days is that they often have big budgets, which is precisely the opposite of what a B-movie used to be. Now, a B-movie is just a purposefully bad or schlocky movie, regardless of budget, which I guess could be seen as an "evolution" of the B-movie, but I just see it as directors trying to pawn off their horrible shit as something they did on purpose. M Night calling The Happening "the best B-movie you will ever see" is proof of this.
There's nowhere I can't reach.
