    Lmao, yes...oh god yes the place was filled every fucking college kid within the region. The dialogue was often great, as is to be expected with Tarantino. Pitt was a perfect fit for the movie and his comedic timing was surprisingly very great. Loved the ending.

    Great movie, terrible audience.

    Some parts in Ch. 3 were too slow, though.

    It was pretty rad. Power went out a little because of intense storm; it thundered outside at the most climatic parts. Was perfect, hah.

    Edit: Come to think of it, that was actually a very bad ass movie. So much different than the shit that has been thrown out lately. Anyone see the trailer that was titled Armored or something? What a stupid plot. I'd say it was second best of the summer, after Star Trek. Saw that shit high. Was remarkable; pretty much blew my mind away.

    Absolutely loved the movie.

    Even though we had a couple of people behind us who would openly expressed their distaste for how they talked about black people.

    Christoph Waltz (Col. Landa) was the best thing in it! =D

    Pitt was good too but was he supposed to be Jewish like the other basterds or not? When they all lined up he looked like the odd one out, it was the eyebrows and nose.

    All I heard throughout watching it was some douchebags complaining 'Why don't they fucking talk English!?' T_T

    I really don't care for Tarantino as much as other people do. I did not consider Pulp Fiction the greatest movie I've ever seen, hated Deathproof/whatever the zombie film attached was, hated From Dusk til Dawn, sort of liked Reservoir Dogs, and really only enjoyed Kill Bill enough to recommend it other people. Does this have a legitimately engaging and entertaining story or is it mostly entertaining because of the ultraviolent film style that Tarantino loves so much? I want to give his movies a chance because of how much other people rave about them, but I generally don't find them very interesting at all outside of their visual appeal, and even that tires quickly.

    Aldo was actually a play on a 1950's actor.

    Aldo Ray: Tarentino's Anti-'Basterd' : NPR

    At the beginning of Quentin Tarantino's new World War II movie, Inglourious Basterds, Brad Pitt introduces himself to the troops under his command with the words, "My name is Lt. Aldo Raine." For most moviegoers, that name isn't going to mean anything. But for those with longer memories and an obsession with 1950s films, the name of the old movie star Tarantino is slyly winking toward, Aldo Ray, is going to hold a charge.

    Even for us, though, it seems odd hearing the name in a Quentin Tarantino war movie, so different in its language and its use of violence from the old-fashioned war movies in which Ray starred. It helps to remember that Tarantino is one of the world's great fans of older, neglected movie actors. He resuscitated John Travolta's career in Pulp Fiction, and Robert Forster's in Jackie Brown.

    In summoning up Aldo Ray, the star of '50s epics like Battle Cry and The Naked and the Dead, he is just reaching further back. Ray was a natural warrior; a big, blond man's man with a wonderful foghorn of a voice. But for little boys growing up in the 1950s, he was also something considerably more than that.

    I would recommend giving it a go, it still has his flair, and while it isn't overly action packed and violent when those scenes come they come hard. The movie does have a story and is more of an alternate WWII recollection with some loosley tied truths. The movie is long 2.5 hrs? and is dialogue heavy, most of which is great, but there are a couple of parts that drag a little bit. The characters are great and its one of his best movies.

    You didn't like Snatch? The fuck is wrong with you?

    As far as inglorious goes, I thought it was excellent. The only thing I think could have made it better would be more Brad Pitt, since he was the absolute best part of it.

    Ah, well... since 2000 then.

    Saw Basterds last night, latest show, theatre wasn't even half full. Loved it and I laughed my ass off. Christoph Waltz in particular had me rolling.

    Maybe it's just me, did anyone else feel like a significant chunk of the movie had been edited out? I had heard that originally, this was intended to be a 2 part movie, like Kill Bill and, though I loved it as is, seemed to me there was something missing that I couldn't put my finger on, first viewing.

    Loved the movie. Could have done without the gore which seemed over-the-top and unnecessary, but I guess that's QT for you. The characters were easy to identify with and I loved the comedy.

    from reading about he wanted to be originally a miniseries when he was writing it each chapter being an episode, but more chapters.

    Mike myers scene was the only scene that felt a little squeezed in.

    Not the best Tarantino move to date, but definitely still worth the price of admission I say.
