I was pretty excited for Avatar already, but after seeing the TRS guys review and the critical response in general I am more excited for this movie than I have been in a long time. Just got my ticket for Friday 12:01 AM

I love The Guild and Felicia Day!

Hi guys, great review. I just wanted to add my 2 cents to the mix.

Hans Landa's murder of the actress and quick change of loyalties made perfect sense to me. Landa struck me a Hannibal Lecter type of sociopath. Intelligent, resourceful and charming but below this veneer lurks a monster who takes great personal satisfaction in his job as the Jew Hunter and later his restraint totally cracks as he throttles the actress with his bare hands. You are right when you say Landa doesn't specifically hate the Jews but I think he would be a killer even if he wasn't a Nazi. As for the speed of his transformation, it is important to remember that the end of the movie takes place several years after the first scene. Landa is completely self-interested and he can see the writing on the wall that war is almost over and the Nazi's will lose. Hitler mentions in the movie that the Allies have already landed in France so this takes sometime after the Normandy Invasion. Landa is just a rat fleeing a sinking ship.

I do think this movie does have some interesting things to say and that it is not just a fun, violent revenge fantasy. Tarantino has a lot to say about the destructive and redemptive power of film in society. It is very interesting that the people fighting Hitler include a movie critic, a film actress, a cinema owner and a projectionist and that what kills most of the Nazis is the burning of old film. It is also fascinating to compare the Nazi audience reaction to the fictional German film "Pride of the Nation" to the audience reaction to Inglourious Basterds.

I loved this film and think it is Tarantino's best since Pulp Fiction. Keep up the good work.

Haha classic article.

So hot.

I think it's a funny idea to protect the ending, but if I was a critic I wouldn't write a review without seeing the whole thing.

If ever a movie didn't give a shit about the critics this is it.

It would have been pretty freaking hilarious if the crowd donated a ton of money.

Great list. Slashfilm rules.

Looks really creepy.
