Hopefully, I’ll have a script review of Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Bastards in shortly. After marinating on it for a few days, I don’t feel that it’s the knock out of the park that’s been widely reported. One character vital to the script that suffers from weird incongruities is the main antagonist, Colonel Hans Landa aka [...]
In this week’s episode of the /Filmcast, Dave, Devindra, and Adam debate whether Robert Downey Jr. would make a good Sherlock Holmes, celebrate Jon Favreau’s return to Iron Man 2, and delve deeply into the cultural phenomenon that is Step Up 2: The Streets.

Over the weekend, numerous sites reported that Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Bastards had been sold to Miramax, the director’s old haunts. But the rumor originated between the cushions of a relatively new source on the scene: Script Girl. Slashfilm patted the rumor with a napkin and decided to go about our day. According to Jeff Wells, [...]
And then there were two. With Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Bastards now scheduled to begin filming in October in time for Cannes 2009 (!), the script is making the studio rounds this week and the first two reviews have just hit the Web. The consensus: Holy Shit. Our pal El Mayimbe at Latino Review describes the [...]

Special Guests Kevin Buist from Filmcouch and Eric Vespe (AKA “Quint”) from Aint it Cool News join us today. Have any questions/comments/suggestions? [...]
Thar she blows. Not Tera Patrick, the NY Post’s equally shameless Page Six, which reports that the porn starlet is in talks with Quentin Tarantino for his remake of Faster, Pussycat, Kill! Kill! Back in January, you may remember that the Post’s Liz Smith reliably dished that Britney Spears, Eva Mendes and Kim Kardashian were [...]
In this episode of the /Filmcast, Dave, Adam, and Devindra get disappointed in the new Futurama movie, discuss whether the new Get Smart measures up, and mourn the passing of one of the greatest comedic geniuses of our time. Christina Warren joins us from TUAW and Download Squad, and Sean Dwyer joins us from [...]
Quentin Tarantino is on a hellfire mission, codename: Inglorious Bastards. This new BBC article implies that he’s not backing down from his earlier claim that the film—now plural!—will be ready in time for next year’s Cannes Film Festival. And yet, there’s not even an official cast. It’s now known that the legendary casting rumors over [...]
Quentin Tarantino did a 40-minute interview with Enzo Castellari, the director of the original Inglorious Bastards (which Tarantino’s film is very loosely inspired by) for the three disc special edition dvd release. AICN has seen the interview and has a detailed rundown, which includes a few juicy tidbits about Tarantino’s Inglorious Bastards.
Two Films: Quentin says [...]
When Quentin Tarantino announced at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival that he was finally going to make his big war epic Inglorious Bastards, I commented that Tarantino sometimes comes off like a compulsive liar. Because, lets face it, how many projects has this guy promised over the years that have not and probably will never [...]
“Meh, believe it.”
Let’s go to the tape from Cannes! Shortly after a giggly French interviewer hands him a video camera and requests to “directed,” Quentin Tarantino is asked what his next film will be. Will it be Kill Bill 3? Kill Bill 4 (those silly Frenchies!) No, he says, it will be Inglorious Bastards…coming to [...]
It’s a slow Wednesday in 2008, so that must mean it’s time to grind the rumor mill yet again for Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair DVD(s)! Uma Thurman teased MTV with news that Tarantino is currently working on a new anime to be included with the long-planned definitive edition of the director’s [...]
Oh yes, my first Quentin Tarantino post here on the great Slash. Warning: I am not going to get to the point. There are some directors I still cannot wait to interview. Not Tarantino. Like Michael Jordan, a living Bobby Fisher, Gregory Isaacs, J.D. Salinger, the Rza, or my favorite ex gal, I’d [...]
Just when we thought Quentin Tarantino was finally going to focus on his WWII epic Inglorious Bastards, we learn that he already has plans for a Grindhouse sequel.
