It’s a slow news week, and unless you care much for those idiotic “reviews” of Inglourious Basterds based on the teaser trailer, by some dude at The Guardian, which I’m not gonna dignify with a link, then you’re probably as thirsty for news as I am. As promised, here’s two more exclusive pictures of advertising material for the film within the film, Pride of the Nation (Stolz der Nation), starring Frederick Zoller, played by …

Sorry for being so late with this, but I was out of the country for a day. What we have here are four official Inglourious Basterds teaser posters. They look very teaserific and I’m pretty sure most of them won’t be seen on German billboards. One of them shows Donny “The Bear Jew” Donnowitz‘ baseball bat with a bloody helmet, the other a knive and a swastika, the third a rifle. One is just …

Gotta hand it to Entertainment Weekly. On a slow news day, they churn out a list of 25 directors they think are the best currently working in the business. The list is somewhat odd, but Quentin Tarantino makes a solid 7th place. EW’s Chris Nashatawy explains why
WHY HIM: Because no one loves movies (the good, the bad, and the obscure) more. That fanboy giddiness comes across in every single frame, every soundtrack nugget, and …

Have you calmed down? The teaser trailer that hit the net in full inglouriuos force yesterday certainly had me click the “replay” button numerous times (also watch it in German if you wanna see inglourious dubbing). While I think it didn’t have the kick-ass attitude of the Kill Bill teaser years ago, which practically knocked me out of my comfy office chair, it nevertheless set the mood right. This film won’t be your typical …

I’m full. I had chinese food and it was too much. Luckily, something amazing was waiting for me after the short walk back from the restaurant, where they had a Kill Bill house of blue leaves style bridge and pond, by the way. Yahoo Movies has the full untampered official teaser trailer of Inglourious Basterds up, also in inglourious Quicktime HD (as opposed to Yahoo’s own standard crapfest streaming shit), so check it out …

While Universal’s weirdo lawyers are going medieval on everyone’s asses on Youtube, I finally found a way to see Entertainment Tonight’s Inglourious Basterds teaser footage in acceptable quality. By the way, I don’t get what their friggin’ problem is. It’s free publicity! Considering that only a fraction of the planet’s population can watch ET, they should be happy Youtube exists. And the real thing is supposed to hit the net in some official way …

Gotta hand it to the French, they sure don’t beat around the bush (all sorts of puns intended). Allocine.fr claims that a teaser trailer for Inglourious Basterds, which has not even wrapped yet, will hit next Thursday the 12th. If true, I predict all sorts of craziness. Stay tuned, you Basterds! On a sidenote, I remember when the Kill Bill teaser hit and I watched it over and over again. It kicked so much …

Inglourious Basterds, the movie that to my knowledge has yet to wrap (I’m guessing next week or so), is set for a US release date of August 21 as has been announced weeks ago. I’m just now finding out that it will in fact come out 2 days earlier in France, on August 19 (according to Universal Pictures). Not to mention that it might premiere this May at the Cannes Film Festival. We’ll keep …

It’s been a bit quiet around Robert Rodriguez lately, aside from the odd rumors about the numerous projects he might be heading, from Sin City 2 to a possible Machete movie. You better be on the safe side and get your daily fix of RR on home video. One of the greatest DVDs of his movies was of course the Unrated&Recut Box set of Sin City, which will now arrive on BluRay for those …
