Finally, Here is the Official Trailer for 'Inglourious Basterds'
This one will help you form a better opinion on the film
Well, thanks to Yahoo! we finally have a clean quality version of the teaser trailer for Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds. Over the past few days we have seen the crappy "Entertainment Tonight" teaser of the teaser followed by the crappy version with the ET voice over. Now, clear of any third-party clutter you have the official version to judge. Enjoy!
Inglourious Basterds hits theaters on August 21 as it tells a story that begins in German-occupied France, where Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent) witnesses the execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz). Shosanna narrowly escapes and flees to Paris, where she forges a new identity as the owner and operator of a cinema.
Elsewhere in Europe, Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) organizes a group of Jewish soldiers to engage in targeted acts of retribution. Known to their enemy as "The Basterds," Raine's squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget Von Hammersmark (Diane Kruger) on a mission to take down the leaders of The Third Reich. Fates converge under a cinema marquee, where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own…

LOOKS EFFING GOOD! I can't wait!
I hate this already…
This is gonna be epic…possibly Tarantino's best yet!
I want my scalps.
I cannot wait for this movie. My birthday is in August, so this is like a birthday present that this movie was finally made. I will admit disappointment at this point that the cast ended up as it did. When I first heard about this movie, I heard rumblings that Tarantino wanted to get anyone from Mickey Rourke, Stallone, Arnold, and Bruce Willis. If there is any truth to that, I don't know, but either way, I am pysched. Who knows, I don't hate the cast either, but I will trust Quentin.
I gotta say, I expected a more impressive trailer. But I am still looking forward to it.
This is NOT mainstream stuff but it might be alot of fun. I was surpised how much Eli Roth plays a part here as an actor.

I can't believe this is not a spoof! Shall I start with Pitt's cheesy accent and then just jump over to his reference to being "cruel to the German" like there was only one? No innocent citizens, just "the German". Holy crap. And I do mean crap.
I Can't Wait, @Jon My B-day's in August too so Happy B-Day for then and I hope our gift is awesome lol :)
@Patricia: Maybe you should learn about the english language and how to point out a plural statement.
@MylesMan I haven't been disappointed by Tarantino yet, so this would be a poor time to start. Happy Birthday in advance to you as well, hopefully this won't let us down.
I dunno Brad…worried here
All good
Looks…Watchable…But seriously, what the hell has happened to Tarantino?
He's making the films he mosts wants to see: old-fashioned, b-movies (in his case, interlaced with often spiffy dialogue). Either you love that stuff or you hate it — no in-between.
Settle down people, it's tarantino for goodness sake. He doesn't make bad movies, he only makes great movies.
Speak for yourself Tim about Tarantino only making 'great' movies.
At the risk of sounding like a sexist feminist, Brad's looks will get certain segments of women into the cinema for this (myself included) but I am not moved or startled by the trailer. It looks almost…average?
But again, Brad will get my ticket. 44 year old man who looks just gorgeous. I know I sound shallow but alas, that's the way it is lol.
@Patricia: Pitt's over-the-top opening speech is classic Tarentino. It reminds me quite a bit of George C. Scott's opening monologue from "Patton." You just gotta roll with it. A film about a bunch of Jews killing Nazis? I'm there. I guess you didn't care for the badass Jews in "Munich" either.
"Wade into them. Spill their blood. Shoot them in the belly! When you put hand into what a moment ago was your best friends face…well…you'll know what to do."
– George C. Scott (Patton)
@Quake82:
You're right that I don't care for Patton's speach either, but I understand it. The difference is the perspective. The film "Patton" was a biography based on a man placed in his time in history. This is a work of fiction being filmed over 60 years after the event. It's use of language to dismiss an entire nation of people reflects the same kind of bias that led to these events. That being said. lets agree that I'm not a Tarantino fan and unlike aulelia above, Pitt's fine ass won't bring me to it.
M'eh. It's been downhill since Reservoir Dogs (and yes I'm aware Pulp Fiction came later; I prefer Dogs to Pulp). With each new movie Tarentino becomes more self-indulgent.
Well, I also liked Dogs over Pulp but I wouldn't say he has gone downhill, his dialogue has never wavered.
@Patricia: My Great Grandmother was a Jewish-American and she married a German-American back in the 1920s. I'm not at all offended by the new trailer for Tarantino's new film. Look, just because I think the idea of a bunch of Jewish soldiers going crazy on a bunch of Nazi's (or Germans) is awesome, doesn't mean I'm some kind of hate-monger. Nazis are easy enemies for people to hate. Can't we at least be allowed to get on the bandwagon and root for the Jewish soldiers to defeat/maim/kill Nazi soldiers (soldiers who, from the looks of the trailer, rape some poor French girl)?
Its all over-the-top-classic-Tarantino. I loved Kill Bill – does that mean I have to hate Asians (since Uma ends up killing about a hundred of them)? No, it just means, I appreicate Tarantino's films.
