Lego Basterds

If you haven't seen this movie, we need to reevaluate our friendship.

YouTube - Inglorious Basterds lego trailer

Okay, now for the real trailer

YouTube - Inglourious Basterds - Official Trailer [HD]


I do not typically enjoy QT's movies. At least not in any spectacular fashion, though there are the occasional few that I love. This one is just...silly. It's silly and intense. If there could be such a thing, QT has found a way to do it. Seriously. There were points in the movie where the tension was so thick, it was astounding! And others where after the scene, I literally just stared, turned to my friend and asked "...what did I just watch?"

And really, for being such a ...silly movie, it obviously exists on an alternate plane of existence that history doesn't follow, but they really managed to capture how very human and how very...crafty the nazis were. Rather than painting them as faceless monsters as most movies do because they don't want to get too close, it was pretty fasinating to watch. Not to mention silly.

Did I mention it's silly?

Yes. A 'silly' movie about nazi germany that isn't featured in The Producers.

No, I probably can't help you.
But I might be able to make you laugh and forget that you just nuked 16 hours of photoshop work.

Lego Basterds ROCKS! Great find, Sami. Alas, I haven't seen the movie (yet). Life doesn't seem to allow enough time to make it to the movie theater lately. Not that I'm complaining... busy is good.

I actually enjoy Tarantino films (does he like being referred to as "QT"... which sounds like "cutie?"). They are generally fun, albeit in a violent and weird kind of way. And always different.

I don't know if he prefers the QT abbreviation. I just know that I have a tendency to misspell his name and this just solves that entire debacle.

It's a good one.
