Damn Brad Pitt Is One Sexy Nazi Killing Inglourious Basterd!
Hey folks, Harry here... I'm incredibly curious about INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS. LOVE the script - and I'm intrigued by the casting, mainly because it isn't like any of Quentin's other films. He said he was writing characters without pre-casting the film as he has done his other films - and that his casting process was to find the right actor for to bring those characters to life. One of the sure fire home runs, is Brad Pitt as the leader of the INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS - Lt. Aldo Raine. A fantastic character. I was chatting with Eli Roth online yesterday, who says that Brad is beyond cool & fun on the set - and then today I get an image of Brad as Lt. Aldo Raine - Here's the Head Basterd!

Too good looking for QT
-
Brad Pitt doesn't look Jewish?
-
behind him...
-
Rotten Tomatoes has had this for hours..But I shouldn't bitch like others do, I still love the site.
-
I can't wait for this movie.
...I just wish Simon Pegg could have made it work. He makes everything better. -
I don't think you can do CGI on a white screen.
-
BASTERD and not BASTARD..?? And its ironic that the word bastard is believed to be of German origan.
-
Man I hope this movies kick ass!
gfy -
That would be lame.
-
thats why he can't spell it.
-
...brains, I had to join in...
-
Well, I do.
-
around. I'm assuming there is a foot fetish scene, right?
-
There is a foot fetish scene, suprise suprise.
-
Not "Bastard"? What's a "Basterd"?
-
...but I just wanna talk to you.
-
Hopefully he does the role justice. Personally, I think he's hit-or-miss as an actor, although he's a great star.
-
is my favorite actor. Looks like he's gonna be great in this.
-
yeah there is. I was wondering how he'd squeeze it in, but he did it.
-
Marky was not happy about that. At all. Hope Samberg does him again this week.

Marky Mark Wahlberg said he'd smack Andy Samberg in his "big nos

Nice, go get your Funky Bunch! How did this TB devolve into a discussion about Marky Mar?
-
"big nose"
-
possible spoiler below, but prob not....
I found myself looking for the lynching scar that is said to be around his neck in the script. But I guess its just as the script mentions, something like, "it will never be spoken of." That kind of shit is why Tarantino is a master, the worlds within his films are so thouroughly thought out. I was watching some interview w him recently where he explained that. For instance, in the Kill Bill universe, it is blasphemous and deadly for a Hanzo sword to ever be taken out of its sheath and returned without tasting blood. So when California Mountain Snake took Budd's Hanzo sword out to gawk at it, Boom, she winds up fucked up and eyeless. I would love to hear of the thousands of little details that populate each of his film universes.
This film has the potential to be incredible... But, it is strange how Pitt/The Basterds are not really the stars as many may think... -
.... tis the cover shot for GQ magazine.
This movie will fail... gloriously! -
Don't you mean it will fail...Ingloriously?????
BwaHAHAHAHAHA!

I bet it has something to do with MPAA...
-
(since this has been brought up here..) is obviously in jest now. i think walberg might not have thought that it was that funny at first, but now he's going out of hisway to mention that he's 'mad' at samberg.. mark my words, good ole marky mark is going to be appearing along side samberg in an SNL skit real soon.
-
Was it because of the beard, he had a nice beard, like that goats. Sounds like a joke.
-
Can you feel it baby? He's upset cause he takes himself waaaay too seriously. His first credit on his resume is a CK ad fer chrits sakes! Boogie Nights is all you got...and 3 Kings
-
Eli Roth and Brad Pitt are going to be some bad motherfuckers in this thing. *Spoiler* Any word on who's playing Der Fuher?
-
...I think...
Still, such glaringly fucked up spelling has to be deliberate. Does anyone know the story behind this? -
I don't think. My guess is a light reflector.
-
Hm. I didn't believe it was until now.
-
I've said it before and I'll say it agin.You just can't ugly that man up.I don't care what you do to him, the handsome is gonna win. Now, I'm not saying he's a "pretty boy" or anything like that. What I'm saying is you can cover that man in pig crap and sauerkraut, and he'd still be one of the most handsome men in the world. There just ain't enough ugly in the world to fight that kinda handsome.
-
I have been pumped for this movie ever since I read the script, and it's just getting better every time.Crazy!
-
i dunno it seems to be pretty thinning up there, may be wearing a hair piece. aint he approaching 50?
-
You aren't your fucking ODs.
-
Come on QT!

the story behind the mispelling is probably that harry can't spe
by westonian
-
The story behind the spelling is that it was spelled that way on the script and spelled that way in the press release announcing the start of shooting. So it's the official spelling. I'm guessing it has something to do with the MPAA or legal rights to the correctly spelled title.
-
"Brad Pitt is handsome" is NEWS??? It doesn't even look like he's dressed for a role in this photo Harry's raving about. Boring.

Holy shit, you wouldn't believe the dream I had last night!
by derlanghaarige
Okay, I am serious. This is really what I dreamed! Quint was making a set visit in Germany, but all of the actors were replaced with 8 year old kids, because Tarantino suddenly came up with the idea to make a family friendly kids movie instead of Bastards!
I repeat! That was my dream! It wasn't a long dream, it wasn't detailed, but that's what I dreamed! -
Have I been misspelling my name all along?Dream well, my little basterds.
-
to some old school italian shit, I mean this is Tarantino. I don't have the real knowledges myself, but no one has posted it yet and like twenty people are thinking up bullshit explanations.
-
Because English is a Germanic language, and something like 1 in 4 words are germanic in origin.

Unfrozen for a few years with a history of working for the government (where his "age" would make sense), casting Pitt as Captain America could be pure magic. He's gotta want it, though (muscles and all.) And he'd have to prove himself as the leader the character requires. (Note: There's a few other casting suggestions that I've been okay with, as well.)
-
You put your key light thru the silk which softens and gives direction to the light. Not a green screen or a reflector. The black velvet to the left and right helps isolate the light to it's only on him, not on the foreground or background.
-
What is this, a movie for illiterates?More worryingly, will this dodgy spelling influence the usual brilliance of a Tarantino soundtrack? Are we looking forward to music from Limp Bizkit, Led Zeppelin, Salt & Pepa, Sugababes and Def Leppard?We demand to know the truth!
-
isn't that what casting is all about? don't get me wrong, I think Tarantino's movies are great, but uh... yeah.
-
I hope this movie delivers the goods...

"...mainly because it isn't like any of Quentin's other films"
by qball86
That's exactly what i don't want to see. Tarantino + Crime Genre = Pure Gold. Kill Bill isn't really holding up too well for me compared to his previous films before that, and to be honest i just flat-out didn't like Death Proof, although it was well made.
-
Looks rather camp
-
Think he's going to do good. Didn't fall in love with the script like a lot of people...but I'm still going to see it. The casting is ridiculous...ELI ROTH? RE-ALLY? Well...whatever. I want better pictures!
-
Pitt is a god. plain and simple.
-
Pretty boy Pitt and a bataillon of jews: Leftish gay bullshit. It should have been Madsen, Keitel, Jackson, Forster, Roth, Rhames kicking Nazies Ass. Being the super badass Basterds.
-
Get Azaria in there, too. Have a motherfucking UPRISING reunion.
-
SPPEL CHEK!
-
looks like he's posing for Trench fetishist monthly!
-
Fuck it, if they're going to misspell they may aswell go all out.
-
but i gotta give it up for Brad. I looked at that pic and thought "Damn, he's hot." If that's the poster it grosses @200 mill off the chick market alone.
-
Pitt looks like a freakin' shaved ape and Jolie looks like an emaciated zombie. The fact that these freaks of nature are the 'hottest couple' (if they're even still together) is a perfect example of how the media can brainwash the masses. Enjoy.
-
That's it? That's your scathing assessment of Pitt and Jolie? Your 15 seconds of fame, trying to impress dozens of geeks and you wasted it. So they were lucky enough to be what most people consider very attractive. Why does that bug you so much? If you HONESTLY don't, then fine. Just give it a rest with the media brainwashing horseshit.
-
...when people sound surprised that Pitt is a nice guy. When has he not been a nice guy? People have been saying he's a nice guy for his entire career. He's uber-famous because WE made him that way, but he's still just a human being like the rest of us. Anyway, really looking forward to this one. And I'm glad that Pitt can check QT to his director list (he sure has worked with a lot of good ones).
