Well done Quentin, against all the odds it looked like you pulled it through. No critic, box office analyst or even the average "post on movie sites/blog" fan had any faith in Inglourious Basterds making a dime over the weekend but the intriguing and unusual premise gave the general movie-goer a curiosity which accompanied by the "Tarantino Epic factor" which we haven't seen since the Kill Bill saga - has produced surprising but very welcomed results. 

Inglourious Basterds earned $14.3 million on Friday alone in the U.S, and if it holds steady it will shoot up to a $35 million taking by the end of play Sunday. That's an incredible figure by all accounts as we all expected the spaghetti-western meets Tarantino's World War II mostly trashed since Cannes epic to be D.O.A. 

Instead, it will be Tarantino's best performing opening weekend ever and the second biggest in the history of The Weinsteins, a company that so badly needed a hit and were dangerously pinning their hopes on this movie to keep them a float. Well today they have been rewarded for keeping faith in Quentin after Grindhouse. Those days seem so long ago now, thank God.

Before the lame but necessary discussion on how Quentin's film has performed at the box office, let's talk about what really maters to us. The film itself. 

I adore this movie, everything about Inglourious Basterds plays to my yearnings for movies that are about something tangible and real. This movie has so much heart and feeling. So much of a director's passion and soul spewing out in it's refreshingly larger than life characters and situations. 

Quentin gave me everything I could have ever imagined and more from his tale of World War II. A World War II I can relate too, enjoy and feel comfortable with. A WWII with a happy ending, a one with real heroes, villains and everything in between. These are people I have thought about many times in the month since I first saw the movie. I've been thinking about their backstory, how they ended up where they did, what their true motivations were, what adventures they had before and after the movie. 

It's something Quentin has done with EVERY movie he ever made. He gives you characters, but never feels like he needs to tell you everything. That's why they feel so huge. I've got questions in my ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most people will have now started to hear the early buzz around Tarantino's latest (thank God for Twitter eh?), and read my frankly profane initial reaction. I stand by it whole-heartedly, and I'm more than willing to indulge Tarantino's proclamation that Inglourious Basterds is a bona-fide masterpiece. You'll notice the plot details are conspicuous by their absence: if you wanted to know them in detail, the script is online (plus the multifarious reviews who have gone Spoiler crazy today), and if you have chosen not to read that I assume me spoiling it now would simply be unwelcome.



Firstly, I feel it necessary to address some of the issues that other early reviews have focused upon negatively. Rad this slowly, take in every word and digest: Inglourious Basterds is a FANTASY film, if you want a realistic war epic, this isnt the place to come (and if you didnt get that from the trailer, then shame on you for not paying attention). It is a hybrid pulp fiction set in World War II, which has to rank as an enormously brave thing to do: the saturation of that particular market is such that I was inclined to think we probably didnt need ...]]></description>

I've finally made the plunge on a Tyler Stout created poster, his one-sheet for Inglourious Basterds is a thing of beauty! 

A while back, I came so close to putting down my visa on the Friday the 13th QT Fest poster but I then felt a fraud for doing so and I eventually took it out of my shopping basket. I didn't attend the event, so I didn't think I should own it. Kind of like owning a Glastonbury t-shirt for a festival that your mate brought back for you as you didn't attend. Sad!

I know this Inglourious Basterds poster is also from a special event at the Fantastic Fest but well, it wasn't as pronounced as the QT Fest. It is advertising the film mostly, not the event. And by the way, I went for the normal edition because I actually think it looks better than the variant. The Nazi symbol and the blood looks better in red.  

The reliable MondoTees is selling the 24 x 36 4-color screenprint for $30. The variant with metallic inks is $80 and limited to 80 prints. Apparently they sell out in hours, so GO! ]]></description>

(As usual I'm over on my own deadline and I know a few people have asked me where the fuck is my review, but you know I tend to get all excited when writing my thoughts on big films like this which in the past have been known to end up at 3,00 words, so it sometimes takes me a while. This is as much as I've written so far and I will make sure I finish it soon...)

In Quentin Tarantino's world, it would be movies that defeated the Third Reich. Cinema's uber post-modernist director in his sixth feature film (counting Kill Bill as one movie for this purpose only) has gone beyond simply re-tooling scenes, thoughts, and ideas from past filmic works and has now moved to a larger playing ground altogether - he's remaking history. With Inglourious Basterds, he has remade World War II, and I loved him for it. 

After Public Enemies, it's my second favourite movie of 2009 and one that I know I'm going to revisit a thousand times in the future, hell I've already seen it twice and may go back for a third helping soon. I totally love everything about this picture. The wonderful characters, ...]]></description>

Third Quentin Tarantino post in a day, can you tell I'm a big fan?

Officially the embargo contract that I signed July 22nd with Universal has been lifted as we have now entered the week of release for Inglourious Basterds. But rather than review it today as I had initially planned, instead I'm heading out to see the movie for a second time tonight but the first with an audience of Joe Popcorns.

Sometimes it takes two goes with Quentin to fully digest what's going on, and you get all caught up with the Quentin dialogue. Trying to figure out just where in the blazers the movie is headed takes up most of your concentration, and although I was prepared with a script reading before hand (though granted some 12 months earlier so it was a little hazy), the big changes meant I was still surprised by the direction the movie went in at times.

Having said that, I adored Inglourious Basterds at the press screening I was at last month and it got cheers all around once the credits rolled. Will it be the same with a regular paying audience tonight - the average movie-goer, the ones who went in their droves ...]]></description>

Quentin Tarantino is like a mini-Stan Lee or J.R.R. Tolkien. All the characters he creates for his works are part of a bigger universe he is crafting, a fictional world where all of his stories co-exist with one another. 

Examples include Patricia Arquette's Alabama from True Romance being a former love interest of Harvey Keitel's Mr. White in Reservoir Dogs, or John Travolta's Vincent Vega (Pulp Fiction) being the brother of Michael Madsen's Vic Vega (Reservoir Dogs). We too shouldn't forget Sheriff Earl McGraw (Michael Parks) has turned up in From Dusk Till Dawn, Kill Bill Vol. 2 and Death Proof. 

Even conspiracy theorists would claim that Rufus, the piano player from Kill Bill 2 could be Jules from Pulp Fiction after enjoying his time "walking the Earth", as both characters are played by Samuel L. Jackson. 

You could have fun all day playing this game, so I'll get down to it. The Playlist learned from a Q &#38; A session with Tarantino after a screening of Inglourious Basterds last night in Austin, Texas that Eli Roth's psycho "bear jew" Donnie Donowitz, shares the same surname as the movie producer from True Romance Lee Donowitz (Saul Rubinek), and it's no concidence. Donnie is Lee's ...]]></description>

The teaser trailer for the next cinematic entry from a director attempting to follow-on from the biggest movie of all time (I know Titanic made more money but The Dark Knight will be more significant) will have it's debut in front of Quentin Tarantino's World War II epic Inglourious Basterds, opening August 21st.

Or August 19th in the U.K. but no word if we are getting it too. Of course I'm talking about Chris Nolan and his sci-fi action drama Inception.

Security has been water-tight on this project for months at Warner Bros. who are desperate not to let script details leak at the request of Chris Nolan who wants to be able to surprise and wow us come July 15th 2010. So I wouldn't expect too much from the trailer, maybe just a glimpse at the plot but I'm sure he has the first act of his magic trick marketing meticulously planned out and it will tease us enough to get us excited.

We know who will star, and it's a great cast of names (DiCaprio, Cotillard, Watanabe, Caine, Tom Hardy, Ellen Page and Cillian Murphy) but we know very little else except it's got a huge budget (possibly over $180 million), ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Universal have invited me to an early screening of Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds next Wednesday night. The U.K. distributor of the movie have been nothing but gracious with us, and I expect this to be the first of many promotional opportunities that come our way for this movie. I think, they think, it needs all the help it can get.  



But as far as Basterds go, I'm going to be silenced by Universal's SS Guards, they won't let me talk about the movie until the week of release (August 21st). Which we all know is stupidity of the highest order because it's not like no-one has seen this movie yet. We already bloody have at Cannes, as has most of the major film critics of the world.

You can find a full length review HERE from this very site. Idiots. But I will abide your silencing, which they made sure to write includes "Twitter, Facebook and any form of blog".  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Weinsteins have truly had some serious difficulties in promoting Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, a movie that many are calling a decisive release for the longevity of the company.

The screening of Public Enemies I attended on Monday night played one of the early U.S. trailers and it simply fell flat on it's face, crickets were chirping, barrels of hay were rolling around, and a few groans were heard from the 20somethings Tarantino's movie needs to play too for success. 

Sadly at this point, all the signs are he has another Grindhouse flop on his hands. Not because of the film's quality, because from a trailer like this it looks perfectly fine, just because this ain't a large audience pleasing kind of flick.



The U.S. and U.K. trailers have clung on to Brad Pitt with all their might, hopeful that his name recognition and star power will attract mass audiences for a non-mainstream kind of genre (has the Euro-Spaghetti-War movie ever made money?) but what that's done as a negative is that we see the same few Brad Pitt scenes over and over again. We are bored of them now, and the movie doesn't open yet for another eight weeks.

Thankfully as some kind of ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Harvey Weinstein has been talking to GQ Style magazine about the truth behind the much discussed butchering of the Cannes version of Inglourious Basterds, how the project went from being a Band of Brothers HBO series into an epic motion picture, and also lets slip that Brad Pitt wants to do an Inglourious II, a project Quentin Tarantino has previously mentioned could be a prequel. 

You know, it's the one he said he had "half-written" about African-American soldiers which were previously part of Inglourious Basterds before he cut characters and sub-plots to get it down to a manageable length. 



First on the follow-up, which is barely anything really except...
Brad wants to do Inglorious II. We all want to do it. And the movie hasn’t even come out yet! But unfortunately I cannot give away the plot. 
Guess it depends on how the movie performs in just under two months time. Many analysts have already predicted that the movie is crucial to the future survival of the Weinstein company and whichever way the pendulum swings with audiences is pretty much going to decide whether the company has a future or not. Tarantino has let them down before with Grindhouse (or was it that the U.S. audience let ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The good folks at BadTaste just sent me this hot of the press international one-sheet poster for Inglourious Basterds that I thought I should share with you guys...



I like it, though maybe a little too much white on the edges?

I'm still gloriously excited for Tarantino's new epic despite so many trying to talk down about it's chances, most notably from those who saw the movie in Cannes and didn't know what to make of it. Honestly though, I'm not sure what critics were expecting. If they are famailiar with european war movies of a by-gone era, that is surely what Tarantino gave them?

OWF's Simon Gallagher's loved the film he saw in Cannes but personally mentioned to me that he could sense that lots of scenes had been taken out, most notably the character of Madame Mimieux who is mentioned but not seen. The character had been played by Asian A-list actress Maggie Cheung, but her scenes were cut for time by Tarantino, which brought a great shock to me as I couldn't understand how the scenes with Melanie Laurent's significant character Shosanna Dreyfus would work anywhere near as well without a very important scene between the two early on in the movie. 

And indeed, according ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not particularly trying to be mean, I just want to stick up for Quentin Tarantino and his intentions with Inglourious Basterds after a quickly written review was posted at The Hollywood Reporter. Now granted, I have not seen the movie yet as I'm still in the U.K. but I have read the script, TWICE, and have followed this project since just after Jackie Brown screened in 1997 and we first got mention of the director's desire to make a World War II epic.

I do know exactly what Quentin was trying to achieve here. 

So with that, please don't watch Kirk Honeycutt's terrible video review for this movie because it's misleading AND he gives away the fucking ending! That should be a statement powerful enough to avoid what he has to say. Giving away the ending and his detailing of the specific problems with what he saw shows his ignorance as a film reviewer, at least on this occassion. No doubt it's his editor's unworkable deadlines to get the review up as quickly as possible (less than an hour was it?), without giving Honeycutt time to think about what he had just seen. His review smacks of a gut reaction.

Now I'm not trying to start a ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Editor's Note: This article was supposed to go up before Simon had seen the movie but it took longer to scribe than I thought. Keep an eye on the homepage and our Twitter account for his updates now that he has called the film "absolute fucking quality". 
I spoke to Simon last night on MSN. He complained about the food over there in Cannes. Not that he thinks it's bad mind you, just that he has been rapidly running out of money to buy it and he claims to have lost almost a stone in just over a week. Concerned, I asked him if he was ok, he told me that the movies had been his fuel and he hadn't much thought about eating out there in truth, he's having the time of his life watching movies all day as his official job. 

He described today, May 20th, as being Christmas with sunshine. He had already booked a taxi to come pick him up in the early hours so he could get a front row seat to see Quentin Tarantino's ten years in the making World War II epic Inglourious Basterds. 



He wanted to catch the movie and feel it before anyone else ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[but I think OWF's Simon Gallagher is more of a Basterd for seeing the movie at Cannes in just a matter of days now; months before us, the mere mortals of this world, can see it. 

Simon's the real Inglourious Basterd!



Quentin Tarantino's World War II epic which has been playing around in the crazy man's head for over a decade now (and in mine for a year since I read the script last summer) will be be 2 hours 40 minutes long according to the Cannes Film Site.

Does anyone doubt this movie will take over France and the rest of the world very soon? ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[They say Quentin Tarantino's enthusiasm for film is contagious. You find yourself in a room with the man, and his childlike energy and ability to talk faster than a speeding bullet (usually because his brain is already four sentences ahead of you) suddenly becomes part of you, even if he is talking about the most obscure film you could ever imagine.

Or so I hear anyway, I've never met the man... though it is most definitely the feeling I get from seeing him at work, or in interviews. 

Having said that, if I were a member of the cast on Inglourious Basterds and I heard Tarantino go through this routine the eighth or ninth time "let's do it again, why? Because we all love making movies"... I would be about ready to slit my wrists. 



A new behind-the-scenes feature premiered in brief on American Idol last night (where Tarantino was a special guest for Movie Songs Week) but has since been captured in full by Film School Rejects. The footage shows some new glimpses at the film and our first look at a heavily make-upped Mike Myers as British General Ed Fenech, and yes, that's probably the same kind of humour he is going to ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Somehow the evil basterd has done it. Working day and night, Quentin Tarantino who turned 46 last week has against the odds managed to make an epic World War II ensemble movie in under ten months, ready for it's premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. 

Variety report that Tarantino has accepted an invitation for his Inglourious Basterds to play in competition at Cannes and as you know, OWF will be there to report on Brad Pitt and his team's Nazi scalping antics. 



Meanwhile, Entertainment Tonight (via QTA) showcased a few new images from a photoshoot in the latest edition of Vanity Fair which is worth your time...


The full line-up for the Cannes film festival will be released on April 23rd. 

Inglourious Basterds will open in the U.K. and U.S. Aug 21st. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Empire let loose onto the web three new INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS posters today, my favourite I'm showing you first...



These are labelled by the Weinsteins as "International Posters" because there ain't no way these are MPAA approved.



And I do wonder if these might become victim of accusations of promoting gun/knife/weapon violence in the U.K. 



Quentin Tarantino's sixth film (on the basis that KILL BILL VOL. 1 &#38; 2 are one movie) premieres at Cannes but we won't get it till August 21st when it gets a wide release from Universal. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As expected, the trailer is cut and sliced (I'm certain this trailer is not shown in order as I've read it begins with Eli Roth ordering the soldiers to attention) and comes with the unnecessary presenter yapping their heads off, instead of letting us watch the damn footage!

Oh well. The footage is fast and frantic, your never quite sure what you are witnessing but your definitely hooked, right?

You can tell this movie has barely begun it's lengthy editing process. It doesn't carry the Quentin universe feel yet, the colours look a little bland, not quite up to the genre level Quentin works too. 

Brad Pitt chews up the scenary and well, whether that last line of his works for you or not will pretty much decide if your going to be able to stomach his character Lt. Aldo Raine. 

The full trailer, without the ET nonsense is said to be attached to prints of movies in the U.S. this weekend (I believe FRIDAY THE 13TH is all but confirmed). 
Give us your thoughts on INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS below. The movie premieres at Cannes in May. ]]></description>
