I consider you to be a pretty discerning guy as far as taste in films goes, and I was honestly not expecting much of Inglorious Basterds. I guess I might check this out, then. Brad Pitt's character seems so obnoxious in the trailer! I guess I will try not to assume things on the way in.

Brad Pitt's character was probably one of the best parts of the movie.

I thought it was great. I am definitely feeling at the moment that it is Tarantino's best movie so far. The only really honest critiques I've heard of the movie have come from people who just really didn't understand what the movie was going for, I feel. Or, there are also some that are just critiquing something you have to expect from a Tarantino film. I.E. "There was too much talking."

nobo:
Just came back from this movie. It was great. The suspense was great, the character development was great. The fact that it was not very predictable until the very end was great.

I also have a huge mancrush on brad pitt.

I really cannot watch anything from Tarantino except for Reservoir Dogs and little bits of Pulp Fiction.  I've seen the stuff that he rips his stuff off of (For Kill Bill it was the manga and movie Lady Snowblood and Sex and Fury mainly) and I find him absolutely shameless in doing it.  I find most of his films to be practices in masturbation while he looks back at how awesome the 80's or 90's or 70's were.  I don't really like his reliance on nostalgia because I find that he uses it to prop up huge portions of the film.

However, I think he's amazing at writing monologues and he has fantastic taste in movies. Oldboy was up for the Palme d'Or at the 57th Cannes Film Festival.  Quentin Tarantino had been raving about it forever but the award went to someone else.  Tarantino then decided that because Oldboy didn't win, he wasn't going to support Cannes anymore.  I don't know if that's entirely true but I totally respect him for that.

In the end, I'm going to avoid this.

He's done vampiresplotation, asiansplotation, blacksploitation, grindhouse, and now nazisplotation....what's next, Nunsploitation?  Brucesploitation?  Sexploitation?
