Inglourious Basterds

Inglourious Basterds is a masterpiece! Depicting the Nazis accordingly for their viciousness against the Jews and what most of us would have liked to have occurred against Hitler and his henchmen is in its proper perspective.

The cinematography and color was awesome. Brad Pitt played a character and a half … the film took turns no one would ever think of and David Bowie’s song was so great … as well as the rest of the soundtrack. The characters were terrific and the acting was excellent. Tarantino’s work is an absolute masterpiece. He indeed did invent a new shade of red! Really a stunning movie. It is unique directors like Tarantino that inspire one to push the envelope.

Guess it helps that my father fought at Normandy on D-Day through the Battle of the Scheldt in Holland and Belgium to Berlin. I have directed my own film about WWII. GETTYMOVIE is the Getty/Hitler trilogy. GETTYMOVIE is based on J. PAUL GETTY FBI FILE 100.1202, JUNE 26, 1940 ESPIONAGE. 43,000 people were killed in UK by the Nazis while J. Paul Getty was in Berlin shipping oil to Hitler. FBI reported that Getty was still shipping oil to Hitler June, 1941 - nine months after London was being bombed - five months before Pearl Harbor Dec. 7, 1941. Getty was assiduously adding to his art collection with the Nazis in 1938. Greek -- Lansdowne Elgin -- marbles a Gainsborough, Raphael and a Rembrandt are among the acquired artifacts. The mother of Jean Paul Getty, Catherine Risher was German. Dec. 20, 1940 -- the New York Daily News wrote about the involvement of J. Paul Getty and his espionage at the Pierre Hotel in New York. 2003 documents declassified by UK Warfare Ministry reveal that Oct. 1941 the pro-Nazi Jean Paul Getty employed and lodged Nazis at his Pierre Hotel in New York City Nazis who were involved in spying on and sabotaging war production plants of Allied Forces.

GETTYMOVIE is dedicated to UCLA Professor Emeritus Gene N. Levine.

Inglorious Bastards you dick...


That Sandwich looks delightful eddie.

Reaggie,

Actually, Tarantino spells it "Inglourious Basterds."

Grant,

No more hyping your film, OK? We have advertising rates for that kind of thing. Either that, or if it's on DVD, send the release info to our Press Dept. via the "Feedback" button on the bottom of every page.

John

Well can we still use this as the Inglourious Basterds thread? I claim yes. I'll let others choose no.


I just got back from it and yes. It was great! Of course I'm biased because I'm a huge Tarantino fan but... I really enjoyed it.

Thanks Mike & John. This is a great movie affectionado site!

Say it like Sean Connery, Reaggie, and it will actually make you feel better: "Inglourioush Bashterdsh"

By the way, Grant, it's spelled McDonald's not Macdonald! Sing it with me now, "McDonald's is the kind of place, Big Macs in your face. Dill pickles up your nose. French fries between your toes . . . ."

Oh, and hey guys, Rachel Ray lost 34 pounds on this diet!:
