Inglorious Bastards was insulting. Yeah yeah. A bunch of Jewish guys with NY style baseball bats go hunting Nazis. ...... Okay? Where's the legitimate story?
I find this to be of the same caliber.
Feels like he's catering to the politically correct bandwagon. Lack of sensitivity towards history as well. He went from an awesome, slapstick, noir film director to just...this.

Quentin Tarantino is one of my favorite directors, so that pretty much describes my enthusiasm and anticipacion for this movie.
Looks really good.

I can never make my mind up about Tarantino. Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill were brilliant, but I thought Inglourious Basterds was good, but very overrated. I tend to find his films weirdly smug; they think they're a lot more clever than they actually are. Don't get me wrong, he's an extremely talented writer, but his films seem to me to be self-aware for the sake of being self-aware; the quirkiness and genre-blending rarely actually goes anywhere.
Still, I am really looking forward to Django Unchained. It has a great cast, and since this is Tarantino, the script is likely to be extremely good quality; I think it looks great. Of course, it helps that I love Westerns anyway, but I still have very high hopes.

Tarantino's pretty hit-or-miss, so I'll probably watch it, but keep my expectations down.
Haters will hate, I suppose.
Yeah, most of the Germans were just regular guys, and about an equal share of Americans and Germans were a bit...unstable.SecretNegative said:

I saw "Django". AWESOME!!!111!! I thought. The 1st words I read in the thread are "Quentin Tranatino". Goddamit. I'm sure there's some sort of image macro appropriate to convey my feelings but I'm too disappointed to bother to find it.
Since I like Quentin Tarantino (I don't know what people's beef with him is; he's a brilliant director and seems like a genuinely nice guy who just wants to make films inspired from the quirky flicks he watched and loved as he grew up) and, judging from the trailer of Django Unchained, it looks pretty good, I'm going to go in with optimistic expectations.
Haven?t really watched Inglorious Basterds: I just had it on in the background while I continued with my laptop stuff.

Only one man can save the Hot Club de France from Wagner-loving madmen. Django Reinhardt is... Gypsy Justice. Featuring Stephane Grappelli. Oui.Jonluw said:
I'm sure Django isn't that badass in all the films that feature him. I mean, seven thousand and twenty six films, gotta be at least two where he's not awesome.Goofguy said:
I saw this earlier, definitely looking forward to this as I love Quentin Tarantino.
Strange though how it's being released at Christmas... Oh well!

"[Sir], you had my curiosity. But now you have my attention."
Exactly my thoughts on this movie. Not sure how I'm going to squeeze this into with my holiday schedule, though.

Totally agreed, I like the look of it. I'll admit, I'm a Tarantino fan, but on the other hand, Westerns (and the Western theme in general) very rarely grabs my attention. So we'll see how it turns out, but definitely seeing this in a theatre when it's out.
