Damn good film, not as bloody as I thought it would be, but good nonetheless.
It's all about the pipe in the beginningI thought the french countryside "standoff" was awesome.
Likewise the scene in the "basement" bar was beyond reproach.
The man is obviously already very talanted with language (not to mention eccentric yet subtle acting.) He was intimidating as hell.Loved it. The Christoph Waltz character was amazing. I've never seen anyone transition across so many languages, in perfect accent, and yet come across as the strange, evil character he played. Less blood and guts, though still lots of it, and my favorite Tarrantino film.
I haven't seen the movie, but it's this type of mindset that has ruined movies into what they are. All people want to see is explosions, gore, fart jokes and tits. Nobody wants to have to think about what they're seeing and it's sad.I like my gore and all, but I really don't understand how "more blood" makes for a better movie.
I think you're misunderstanding what Quentin Tarantino does. He takes genres and exploits them, making tons of references and using great dialogue. Really, his dialogue is the only reason this works.I didnt like the movie...
It was yet another anti-nazi movie that gets close to addressing the moral nuance of the situation, but ultimately misses. For that reason, it seemed a bit cliche to be honest, and much less than I would expect from the "god-who-wrote-and-directed-Pulp-Fiction."
The only good part of that movie was the french country opening scene - THAT is how you do dialogue.
I can kinda see that. She played a huge part, though, and I think the opening was more to present a few of the characters and to have the awesome dialogue. I mean...how else would they have presented The Jew Hunter?My whole thing about the opening french countryside thing was that it took way too long and was WAY too much of a backstory, for something that (in the end) really wasn't all that important.
They built up the character too much, almost as if the movie was about her and not the Basterds....
Now, if that's the case, then it should have been called "French Bitch vs Nazis".
Nothing, as long as the queef sisters don't come to town.what's wrong with fart jokes and tits?
I havn't seen it yet, but I trust Q to deliver something worthwhile to my grey matter. I agree, it might take a while to sink in, but the guy is a true artist.As with all of Q's work you have to see it a few times to pick up some subtleties. Q is a freakin' genius of enormous proportions and the fact that he said prior to making this movie he hanged out with Brad Pitt on his French vineyard and Brad pulled out a huge chunk of Hash and they proceeded to burn away and talk about the movie has given me a new respect for Mr. Pitt. Apparently the after story is that Angie heard this on the radio and FREAKED out, Brad apparently promised her that he was not doing that anymore... get real bitch, with what 8 kids he's only going to do that MORE!
Great movie, see it a few times... and as someone smart on here said, it's about the dialog and each individual scene more than the entire movie.

And there are Brits in it, too! You'll love it!I havn't seen it yet, but I trust Q to deliver something worthwhile to my grey matter. I agree, it might take a while to sink in, but the guy is a true artist.
From what I've looked into, this is not a remake of "The Inglorious Bastards".I saw an older one at redbox...is this a remake?
Oh no.... Not the usual stuffed shirts waiting for America to save them again as usually depicted in hollywood war movies? ......Oh yes, this is Q. I'll just have to wait and see.And there are Brits in it, too! You'll love it!![]()
The moral nuance? OK, that is debateable, but you are WRONG sir about "the only good part" That basement bar scene is incredible.I didnt like the movie...

Agreed! Although total gross out gore with intelligence has it's place, I didn'tmean to imply that it wasn't good because it wasn't gory, I just expected more gore from the god who made KILL BILL.I haven't seen the movie, but it's this type of mindset that has ruined movies into what they are. All people want to see is explosions, gore, fart jokes and tits. Nobody wants to have to think about what they're seeing and it's sad.

lol...uh...no, but there is some "fumbling"...you'll have to see itOh no.... Not the usual stuffed shirts waiting for America to save them again as usually depicted in hollywood war movies? ......Oh yes, this is Q. I'll just have to wait and see.
3d and more blue people will kill cinema for me...I hear that. I just hope everyhing doesn't come out in 3D from this point forward![]()
Kill Bill was so violent because it was mocking japanese anime/kung fu movies. They're ultraviolent, and Tarrantino was pointing that out.I just expected more gore from the god who made KILL BILL.
Loved the movie.
At first, with the country scene, I was like WTH?? but once I realized what was going on I totally got into it. Yes, the basement scene was AWESOME.
My one bitch, and this goes for other movies as well is the Close Captioning. When you have to do the close captioning stuff, PLEASE make the letters a different color than the background. I do not enjoy having to stop the movie cause feel I've missed something important.
I couldnt care less about the point. It annoyed me.YOU MISSED THE POINT!!!!!
Terrentino tore apart all the movies where the nazi's speak english (when it's supposed to be german) and how crappy that makes scenes where a good guy is posing as a german and trying to master the accent WHEN EVERYONE IS SPEAKING ENGLISH!!!!!!..........
Sorry, learn German.SWMBO is the same way as you.
