I'm down for 4 hours...but 6, I'm not so sure.
Exactly. I could easily sit through 6 hours of Tarantino. Once I got the DVD's I've only watched Kill Bill in its entirety. That said, I will gladly go see both halves of Inglorious Bastards as soon as they each come out. New Tarantino is among the few things that get me to go see movies anymore.
UK, July 9, 2008 - Following the Cannes announcement that Inglorious Bastards would be his next film, news on Quentin Tarantino's WWII ensemble piece has been coming thick and fast, with the second juicy nugget in as many days hitting the Web this morning.
Yesterday we leant that QT has apparently completed work on the script and is shopping it around the major studios. Now the same source, Deadline Hollywood Daily, reports that Tarantino is in talks with none other than Brad Pitt over a starring role in the film.
The rumour mill has been cranking out casting gossip for literally years, with the disparate likes of Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Adam Sandler and Eddie Murphy all discussed for roles. But with the film now nearing production, casting buzz seems more likely to be grounded in reality. Whatever the case, we'll have more news on this one as and when it breaks.
Interesting article Feev. I'll say this, Pitt can actually act. Those other names on the list, not so much, though Tarantino got a good performance out of Bruce Willis in Pulp Fiction.
I'm down with Brad Pitt and S. Stallone.
Eddie Murphy...ehh, kinda 50-50 on that.
Adamn Sandler? No thanks.
Have you noticed that everyone in his movies is funny but him?
Have you seen that MAD Tv skit where they're parodying the MTV movie awards, and one of the actors that shows up (Forgot who it was supposed to be; was played by Will Sasso in the skit) and starts talking crap to the lady in charge of seating everyone and she says "Yeah, you know what? Why don't you go sit over in the Used To Be Funny Section with your pals Eddie Murphy and Chevy Chase"Murphy is funny, as a comedian, in the 80's.
Thanks for the info Feev. I'm not too sure about Brad Pitt, but he's sure alot better than all the other names listed. Most of those actors, I could just not picture Tarantino even thinking of casting.
For some reason I thought we already had a thread for him. Please merge if so
Ok so he is producing a movie called Hell Ride and I just saw the trailer.

Looks very cool.
I've been looking forward to this movie for what seems like years.
I can't wait until it comes out.
War movie + Tarantino = a cinematic boner ( I coined this phrase after watching a guy on Top Chef say "Culinary Boner", use it if you would like but pay me homage)
haha, i loved captain planet as a kid. I hate QT tho.

YOU MUST CHILL. I HAVE HIDDEN YOUR KEYS.
I think it takes an extremely talented actor to die violently and painfully for a two hours straight and never have the audience go 'Jesus, will that guy just shut the fuck up & die already?".
Mr. Orange is by far my favorite character in that movie. I sometimes give myself the "You're super cool, you're fucking beretta" speech when I need a pep talk.
YOU MUST CHILL. I HAVE HIDDEN YOUR KEYS.
Pitt is leagues ahead of any of those others .. Bruce Willis is in some awesome movies but tends to have that one squinty eyed look. And I fucking cant stand Adam Sandler and Eddie Murphy, its like they went "well noones really pegged the C grade category, and theres some money in it from stupid people, so lets stick with that."

DiCaprio a Bastard?
In talks for Tarantino war film.
by Chris Tilly, IGN UK
Quentin Tarantino is targeting Hollywood's A-list for his forthcoming war opus Inglorious Bastards, holding talks with two of the industry's biggest stars for key roles in the film.
Adding credence to the rumours that Brad Pitt will be involved, Tarantino apparently met with the Se7en star in France on Tuesday to discuss the role of Aldo Raine -- a.k.a. Aldo the Apache -- the world-weary leader of the men on a mission.
And if Variety is to be believed, the writer-director is meeting with Leonardo DiCaprio on Thursday to discuss the key role of the Nazi villain of the piece -- Hans Lada.
Indeed, it looks like it's a busy week for Tarantino, with the director teaming up with producer Harvey Weinstein to pitch the script to five studios on Friday as they search for a co-financier.
So after years on the back-burner, it sounds like Inglorious Bastards is finally coming together with shooting expected to commence in France and Germany at the tail-end of the year.
