Pulp Fiction was awesome, but a fluke.

Quentin Tarantino is an idiot.

EDIT: Well... that Top Gun spoof is pretty damn hilarious too, if that is his.

Quentin Tarantino is a talentless, immature hack with delusions of competence. NEXT! :sleep_125

Pretty much this, with the exception of Pulp Fiction and that's only because it had Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, and John Travolta going for it (with Uma Thurman working against it, of course).

I know he's been working on this since before Kill Bill, so I have high hopes. From what I hear, you're not supposed to expect a run of the mill WW2 movie. It's supposed to be over the top ala 'Planet Terror' in 'Grindhouse', with blood, guts and decapitations everywhere.

I'm sure it has to be somewhat okay.. Brad Pitt isn't at the stage in his career where he has to take on sh*t roles.

The absolutely most shiteous war movie done by a modern director was John Woo's Windtalkers....with Nick Cage. I would expect this movie to be just about as insipid, If Brad Pitt's terrible attempt at affecting a southern drawl is any indication.

In other words, more evidence why QT is a talentless hack. In my humble opinion. I can't understand the appeal of the splatterfest, but to each his own.

The difference being Windtalkers took itself seriously. It tried to be a real, serious war movie but ended up looking silly and stupid. Plus it was more about Nick Cage than the actual Windtalkers themselves.

Inglourious Basterds obviously doesn't take itself too seriously. It's about the gory fictionalized slaying of Nazis. It's meant to be over the top.

They aren't trying to make another Saving Private Ryan

I suspect you're absolutely right Picaroon...
and that being the case, QT should just go ahead and make of movie of Castle Wolfenstein videogame, in which an OSS agent goes on a killing spree against SS zombies, monsters, et.al.
