As <a href=\"http:\/\/theplaylist.blogspot.com\/2009\/05\/tarantino-has-african-american-soldiers.html\"><em>The Playlist<\/em> points out<\/a> (thanks for the heads up), one of the more interesting blurbs emanating from that piece is a quote of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarantino.info\/wiki\" target=\"_self\"><strong>Quentin Tarantino<\/strong><\/a> saying he has a possible sequel to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarantino.info\/wiki\/index.php\/Inglourious_Basterds\" target=\"_self\"><strong>Inglourious Basterds<\/strong><\/a> ready should that turn out successful. It would be about African-American soldiers caught behind enemy lines, a sub-plot that did not survive the writing dash QT performed to have a working script ready to shop around, which was last summer.\u00a0 The article also goes a bit into the evolution of this project and I suggest you just read the piece.
