I’m sitting in Pat & Lorraine’s Coffee Shop on Eagle Rock Boulevard, a few minutes outside Hollywood, having a late breakfast. There is a Reservoir Dogs poster right on the wall by our table. It’s the breakfast diner where the opening breakfast scene for Dogs was filmed, and it is one of its few remaining shooting locations that still exist. I’m discussing last night’s screening of Django Unchained with Michael, a long time veteran …

Last year we posted something that almost crashed our servers and caused huge ripples around the internet: Quentin Tarantino‘s list of his favorite films of 2010 (click here to read). There were some controversial choices and some omissions in the opinions of a lot of commenters, and the discussions were very active. Even earlier, during his filming of Inglourious Basterds he let us have lists of his top 20 favorite Spaghetti Westerns (click here …

When you are a quarterback, and looking for someone to pass the ball to, you sometimes get hit from the side because either a team mate did not do their job right or you just got surprised. Well bazinga, as that Sheldon Cooper character from The Big Bang theory would say, I was about to hit the sack and let the couple of brewskies put me to sleep when something happened in the Tarantino …

It’s 2011! And I’m back with a juicy exclusive for all you QT Fans out there! Bear with me! All movie geeks love lists, that’s a fact of life. Our new off-shoot Furious Cinema has got a few lists to get your dick hard, and especially around year end the net is full of lists. But not all lists are the same. For example, Quentin Tarantino’s list of favorite Spaghetti Westerns (click here) and …

UPDATE: As the US west coast is having its morning coffee, probably surfing the interwebs for clarification on this, we as we are wrapping up Thursday already here in Europe, are happy to confirm that the rumors are completely false. We may all go back to normal and, if we may recommend, check out what Robert Rodriguez is bringing to theaters… click here. Thanks for reading.
Oh boy, is it rumor time again? If you’re …

It came as no surprise to us, that none other than Bo Svenson had a cameo appearance in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds. Not only was Bo Svenson the star of Enzo Castellari‘s Inglorious Bastards, he’s also a living legend and has had a cameo appearance in Kill Bill as Reverend Harmony. We talked to Bo a few years back (read our interview here) and over the years I from time to time tried to …

As promised, a fistful of snapshots from the Berlin premiere of Inglourious Basterds, click the picture below to see them. We’ll bring you a full review of this epic world war 2 extravaganza pretty soon. As described in our previous report on the premiere, it was quite the event. Please check out a series of more professional photos here, here and here also, to get a better look at the stars on the red …

“Dankeschoen!” he said, visibly moved, after several minutes of applause. A Basterd’s work well done, I thought, when the lights went on and Quentin Tarantino had just ended the second world war – on celluloid.
Fast forward two or so hours earlier. The Berlin premiere of Inglourious Basterds, probably the movie’s biggest worldwide (aside from the one in Cannes a few weeks ago) was one hell of an event. Fans had lined up outside the …

Only months after the shooting of Inglourious Basterds wrapped earlier this year in the Potsdam suburbs of Berlin (at the historic Babelsberg Film Studios), the Basterds are back in town. But this time, they have come not to work five days a week, but to celebrate and enjoy the miracles of cinema. Quentin Tarantino, with an entourage consisting of the main actors, will host the Germany premiere of his latest work of art tonight …

You really thought we wouldn’t find a way to present you with an exclusive review of Inglourious Basterds directly from the Cannes Film Festival? Think again, my friends. Despite all odds, we dispatched the danger-man of international film criticism to another noon screening of Tarantino’s film with the task of writing the review you haven’t read yet, so behold the words of the Wise:
“On second viewing, Ingourious Basterds really holds up; it’s a slick, …

Wait, when you saw the Brad Pitt is a Basterd teaser poster this weekend you surely said to yourself “hey it’s called Basterds, not Basterd….”, and you were right, Inglourious Basterds is only three weeks away from being premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in all it’s epic glory, so it’s time to get to know more of those Basterds, right? Well here we go, for your (continued) exclusive viewing pleasure….. ELI ROTH IS …

Gosh it’s been quiet, right? Well I hope you had a chance to enter our t-shirt contest and maybe you’re one of the lucky winners. As promised in a couple of places, here are two more exclusive pictures from Inglourious Basterds. I promised to upload them in case it’s a slow news week, and aside from a weird sighting of Quentin Tarantino apparently dressed up as a hobo (without the shotgun mind you), there’s …

When I posted the report from the set of Inglourious Basterds (click here to read it if you haven’t checked it out yet), I included some candid pictures of the set that were sent to me, and one of them showed a marquee poster of “Stolz der Nation“, which is gracing the outside of the notorious cinemateque. I promised to make that our next exclusive picture, so here it is, click the image to …

Have I announced this and am I a few days late? Probably. Can I still not believe I did this? Very much so. Was I really blown away and could’ve taken more notes? Correct. At any rate, this might well constitute one of the coolest things this website has ever had to offer, followed by our first 2007 interview with Tarantino maybe. Two weeks ago, I went to Berlin and spent a day on …

As promised, to make up for yesterday’s unavailability of our website, here’s the next exclusive picture from Quentin Tarantino’s highly anticipated next film Inglourious Basterds. As you may know, the movie reverts in part around the premiere of a Nazi propaganda film called Stolz der Nation (Pride of the Nation), which stars Fredrick Zoller, a German sniper, played by Daniel Brühl. This movie within the movie was of directed by Eli Roth, who pulled …

If you’ve followed our recent coverage, you might already be anxiously waiting for this. As Inglourious Basterds nears its wrapping date (and a huge party, I suspect), we’re proud to present a few EXCLUSIVE pictures from the film.
One of the central characters in the movie is Bridget von Hammersmarck. A Tarantinoesque version of Marlene Dietrich, a femme fatale of sorts, a beautiful celebrity and also… a spy. Bridget is played by Diane Kruger, one …

Not all hope is lost my friends. After Quentin Tarantino revealed his top 20 favorites both in the Spaghetti Western and in the grindhouse genre (“That grindhouse list made me start coming up with mine! But it’s a good list…there’s a lot of films that … are on here.”  he said), I started asking some long nagging questions. I felt as the ambassador of the fan community, I should ask what is going on …

Earlier this week we exclusively treated you to Quentin’s official list of favorite Spaghetti Westerns (check it out if you missed that), and this weekend we’re taking it another step and we’ll present his top 20 list of old grindhouse movies. Our “Man from Hollywood” actually placed very high importance on this list, not only because The Deuce applied a wider definition of the term “grindhouse” (our sister site had posted its own Top …

For some reason I cut my finger last night, and all I could think of was “Basterds!”, which now seems to be in my vocabulary for situations like that. But let me get to the point, dear readers. Someone in the forums said he will pre-cream his pants over what I’m gonna write about now and the coming days and weeks, so I guess a word of warning is appropriate. Our sister project, …

If you’re a regular visitor of this website (which exists in some form or another since 1999 and there are still some regulars around, or so I hear) you know that I always make a big deal out of special occasions, and I get all chatty and write up little texts like this one here. Well, it’s that time of the year again! If you read this, then let me thank you for stopping …

As promised, here’s an exclusive pre-release review of Larry Bishop‘s Hell Ride, written by Lance Polland, also co-writer/director of the upcoming anthology film Slices, which should hit your DVD shelf later this year. Hell Ride stars Michael Madsen, Vinnie Jones, David Carradine, Leonor Varela, Eric Balfour and Dennis Hopper. The film opens limited in the United States next week August 8. Here’s an excerpt:
…..From the opening title sequence to the closing end credits I …

When you’re dealing with a movie that subscribes to “bikes, beer and booty”, anyone who likes a good fun flick gets excited. In this case, Hell Ride, directed by Larry Bishop, offers more than just that. A bunch of rowdy bikers, Dennis Hopper and Michael Madsen at the helm, some really sexy ladies, booze and some spaghetti western tunes. If you haven’t seen the trailer, do it now, because then we’ve got Larry Bishop …

While you’re thinking “the movie takes place in France, aren’t they shooting it in the Normandy or something?”, it should be noted that Inglorious Bastards is neither a remake of The Longest Day, nor will you be able to tell green grass in northern Germany from that of green grass in France. Please excuse my horrible humor this morning. Quentin Tarantino‘s script is currently floating the internets, turning curious teenagers into duracell bunnies, and …
