Get yourself some Kleenex, folks. And hang on to your funny parts. The tingle may set off the Richter scale.

That is a well-crafted trailer. Tingles!

It had me at "Gnat-sies."

Benjamin Button was like having my eyes slowly gouged for over three hours and I swore off Brad Pitt.
Now I'm fucking hooked again, barely two months later.
Can anyone else think of another actor who has had a turn around this fast?

I dunno.
Brad Pitt's ridiculous accent is certainly fun; but...just how campy is this movie gonna be? That shot of Hitler makes me nervous.
Also, just how much Eli Roth will I have to put up with?

well, I am a documented fool for quentin's work, so I will be seeing this. right now, though, I wonder -- is there some reason for the misspelling of both halves of the title? I feel out of the joke loop.

Having Eli Roth in it was one of the main issues I had with it, too. But casting him as a sick, bloodthirsty, mentally disturbed man with no sense of subtlety, decency or intelligence? That's downright genius.
If it's campy, crazy, brainless fun like the trailer suggests, I'm perfectly cool with that. But for now I'm going to hope that the other half of the movie - the girl trying to kill some nazis with subterfuge and strategy - makes it more well-rounded.

I have a very good feeling about this film...

Now can he lose the porn-stache?
Please?!?!

I think I may have just gone gay for this movie.
He likes it rough.

This looks like B movie bunk at its worst. Brad Pitt or not, QT's direction gets worse with each passing movie, and making something that looks Rob Zombie-ish isn't the way to regain any credibility (seriously, get QT think Zombie's "coming attraction" in Grindhouse was THAT good he had to make it for real?).
Here's a prediction: It'll be so bad, mindless and bloody, it'll get heaps of hype and press but for all the wrong reasons. Opening weekend will be huge (unless a decent film is up against it). Fan reaction? The QT whores will love it regardless, everyone else will call it out as the shit it is.

I second Ciji's motion. I want that moustache's scalp...
Posted by: thordora at February 11, 2009 9:13 PM
Definitely a tingle, that said, Pitt looks like a miscast from the look of the trailer. Unfortunately, 'cause it's QT, I'll see it. Still, I do miss me some "You shot Marvin in the Face!". :)

I wouldn't judge too quickly. This trailer makes it seem like QT is still stuck in Grindhouse mode, but I think that he has a talent for making very unique films. Every one of his films while sharing similar qualities is its own movie.
While this movie may share qualities of Kill Bill and Grindhouse (mindless bloody action) you can't say those movies are too alike (or maybe you can, it's your opinion) I'm looking forward to a movie which hopefully is a fresh, new direction to add to QT's resume.
Remember, he's been cooking up this puppy for a long time, that fact alone should be giving Tarantino fans a rabid purple headed throat choker.

is there some reason for the misspelling of both halves of the title?
There's an old Italian WWII movie called "Inglorious Bastards" that's more of a Dirty Dozen suicide mission story. You can re-use titles but that's a fairly unique one so maybe it's like that just to indicate that it's not a remake. I'm just speculating though.

QT's direction gets worse with each passing movie
Replace "worse" with "better" and I agree with that assertion ... Kill Bill Vol. 1 excepted, maybe, since even though I love the movie it was his first real action flick and it did show ...

I am also a QT whore - that trailer filled me with meh. When Eli Roth is the best part of something, you know you have missed the mark.
I hope it gets better, though.

Today I learned that my computer will need to go to a data recovery specialist if I want anything off of the hard drive that needs replacing, and got an e-mail telling me that I was wrong about the deadline on the graduate program I wanted to applied to and it's passed on the same day the professor who runs that program e-mailed me back about a question I had and encouraged me to apply.
I will get you Nazi scalps, Brad Pitt. I'll get you more Nazi scalps than you could DREAM of.
/off to get my rum bottle.

It gave me a hard on, I'm not ashamed to admit that.
Posted by: George at February 12, 2009 12:39 AM
this movie is going to be incredibly stupid and dull to watch ... just like Terminator 4 ...
don't say I didn't warn you

In!

I'm a Tarantino fan. Not a super-fan, but I've liked most of his movies and loved others. That said, "Inglorious Basterds" looks...awful. I know it's just a teaser but what the hell is this thing? Torture-porn war movie? It doesn't look fun, it looks sleazy, immature, and depraved. Hopefully, I'm wrong about it. I've never seen a trailer for a Tarantino movie that left me as unenthused as this one.
Posted by: TylerDFC at February 12, 2009 9:20 AM
"Immature." That's a great description of what's in that trailer.
I wonder what the budget on this film was. Can you make a low budget WWII film? Because all of the (brief) Nazi scenes looked incredibly cheesy.
MASTODAN - Can you back that statement that QT's directing is improving with each film? The way I see it, the more movies they allow him to make, the more he has to rely on ripping off other films to make them. While he can show some flashes here and there, overall he's just not that good.
Posted by: B-Unit at February 12, 2009 10:03 AM
Eli Roth? Really?
Eeeeh. Whole trailer was awesome, and I will begrudgingly accept Roth's presence for now.
Posted by: chenry at February 12, 2009 10:22 AM
Wasn't this supposed to be the movie with Vic and Vincent Vega? Is it still?

"The way I see it, the more movies they allow him to make, the more he has to rely on ripping off other films to make them. While he can show some flashes here and there, overall he's just not that good."
He is running low on steam as is right now. Few more years, and he'll probably just be ripping off himself.
Trailer didn't excite me. Then again, nothing I have heard about this film really excites me. Might go see it though.
Posted by: Ken Hart at February 12, 2009 11:07 AM
Wow. I thought the trailer would make me want to see this movie more than the teaser did. But - it didn't. This movie just looks.... dumb as hell. And really boring.
Maybe a longer trailer will help me get it? It just looks like a bunch of rejects standing in a dark cobble stoned square whining about Gnat-zis. Ummm... no.
I hope I'm wrong. I like Tarantino.
Posted by: kayla at February 12, 2009 3:17 PM
Sooooo going by the trailer this is NOTHING at all like the original film and just a big Jewish Jerk off "what if" we had balls and actually fought back against the Nazis...crap.
and Brad Shit at his worst it seems...WTF kind of lame ass accent is that anyway?
Posted by: Phil at February 12, 2009 3:23 PM
I'd rather re-watch the one with Bo Svenson and Fred Williamson.
I'm also still waiting for QT to have an original idea.
Posted by: Matt at February 12, 2009 3:28 PM
Can't wait to see the Inglourious Pajeeba poster.
Posted by: Mrs Smith at February 12, 2009 5:45 PM
Nope. No thank you. Tarantino is a sick fuck. And not in the good way.
Posted by: marya at February 12, 2009 5:55 PM
Phil, what the fuck are you talking about? A big "Jewish jerkoff?" Do you mean the Weinsteins' involvement? Eli Roth's? Explain yourself w/o coming off like a bigot, please.
As for the trailer...I dunno..is this gonna be more of QT's "look how cool I am" dick slapping, i.e. Kill Bill? First blush IB looks like some campy ultra violence that doesn't take itself seriously. Call it the anti-Saving Private Ryan.
Posted by: stryker1121 at February 12, 2009 8:47 PM
There's no crime behind enemy lines? Nice message. Fight terror with terror, now why does this bullshit sounds eerily familliar to me?
Posted by: Arthur Dent at February 13, 2009 7:44 PM
Fun Fact: there was a 1978 Italian WWII film released called Inglorious Bastards.
Posted by: Marina at February 13, 2009 9:51 PM
I don't hate the accent but I was kinda waiting for him to start listing off all the ways to prepare shrimp... another Forrest Gump/Brad Pitt correlation! When will it end?
