Hans Landa 2.0?

Hans Landa 2.0?

Well we do know the role was pretty much tailor-made for Waltz.

All I ask is for no fourth wall breaking exposition about useless shit like how to develop film in the 1940s. Those completely unnecessary sequences really ruined Inglourious Basterds. Were they in the original script, or did the films pacing just not work with a Hugo Stiglitz prison break in the middle of it?

Respectfully disagree. It wasn't fourth wall breaking because it was narrative. It wasn't like the main characters looked at the camera and explained the circumstances. And I don't think most movie goers realized film would burn like that. However, the couple running the theatre would be very well aware of it, so one of them explaining to the other how flammable their film was would seem clumsy and unnatural.

Not really feeling that poster.

Maybe fourth wall breaking is the wrong term. Anytime you need to a.) use a celebrity voice over out of nowhere, b.) put words on screen with fonts from a different time period or c.) use stock footage from yet another time period of your period film, it hurts suspension of disbelief.

Tarantino is stylish, so apparently he gets a pass. But I considered it clumsy

I personally enjoyed the break up in style, but I'm sure you're not the only one who felt that way. I think using Sam Jackson's voice was the best voice that could be used, the way he's in almost every one of his movies. I saw it kind of like how John Ratzenberger makes an appearance in every Pixar film somewhere/somehow. I thought the stock footage added credibility to the plot, that this was common knowledge of the day and is true. I don't remember the font thing you talked about.

Still, even if the scene wasn't good in your eyes, I can't imagine how it could ruin the entire movie.

haha, that was my first thought. or is it... Soul Bass? :>

I still loved the movie. I just didn't understand the voice over exposition dumps.

[Wiggum2007]

I wish they'd kept the flashback to the Bear Jew in NYC when he got all the names on the bat.

[Messypandas]

That Synopsis is incredible. Do i read the script!?!?

[Wilbury]

Well we do know the role was pretty much tailor-made for Waltz.

It was written for him. He was fantastic in Carnage, so I'm 100% confident he's going to bring it.

Foxx is pretty good but like Elba he didn't seem right for the part reading the script. Michael K Williams would have been fucking perfect. Absolutely perfect.

Leo and Sam Jackson will be great though.

I always liken reading Tarantino scripts as akin to reading the book of a film. You know what's coming but the pleasure is in bringing that script to life; best thing is its by the person who wrote it so their vision isn't distilled at all. It's a very good script, which'll work better on screen that written as it is, so I'm very excited.

Yeah you're right. I remember reading IB and still finding the movie fresh, i was actually kinda surprised by scenes i had interpreted differently. Could anyone PM me it?

[squidyj]

I'll be honest, they really need to nail the score for me to be able to get into this movie.

[Wiggum2007]

I'll be honest, they really need to nail the score for me to be able to get into this movie.

Wasn't Ennio Morricone planned to compose IB but scheduling conflicts or something arose? Seems like the perfect movie to get him on board, and if not then half the tracks used will be old Morricone tracks anyways lol.

Score? In a QT film?! It will be all licensed music, as always.

[Expendable.]

[Ninja Scooter]

Kerry Washington is in this?!?!! AND BEARDED LEO?!!? I'm going to cum hard.

[Measley]

I'm seeing this mainly because it's Leo playing a bad guy in a Taratino movie.

[oatmeal]

Hans Landa 2.0?

No. Other than being intelligent and eloquent, he's not much like Landa. Should be interesting to see how he plays it.

[Tigel]

He better get Morricone to do the soundtrack this time...

[Enco]

QT really put on some weight.

I'm wondering what accent the Candie Man is going to have - is the beard confirmed?

[TheKaeptain]

Hans Landa 2.0?

Nope.

Foxx loss some weight for this movie.

[theignoramus]

Is the Foxx hate because the guy's an arrogant asshole (or said to be one. I have no clue what he's like) or is it because people think he's a bad actor? He's not a bad actor at all, he's just the same guy in so many of his movies. Minus Ray.

[TheKaeptain]

I hate him because he only has one face and tilts head when ever he gets serious.

Is the more of a problem with the roles he is given or his range as an actor? Wasn't the "Soloist" different for him?

Better pics and first footage has been shown:

I have nothing against Foxx, just would've really loved to see Willl Smith in this role.

[Scullibundo]

I'm still angry at Plainview for ruining the movie for himself by reading the script.

[Dali]

I dunno. Foxx is just as good a choice if not better. I think Foxx is just the right amount of ugly and I don't have to work at forgetting who he is as much as Will. Don't get me wrong will is a great actor, but even in excellent roles like Ali, I caught myself thinking this is Will Smith playing Muhammad Ali rather than just accepting the role and forgetting the actor.

[Wilbury]

I'm still angry at Plainview for ruining the movie for himself by reading the script.

I did it too. Book of the film, motherfucker!!!

Leo looks awesome, as does Waltz. Like I said the other day, Foxx will have to convince me a lot that Michael K Williams wouldn't have been better.

Also Kerry Washington is gorgeous

[Zeliard]

Quite a few people did.

Ya'll are all nuts, people who read the script.

Agreed. Why spoil a QT movie for yourself? We only get one every few years.

[Wilbury]

Maybe I should have avoided it but it won't ruin the movie for me at all. It's like reading Lord Of The Rings; I knew what was coming but it was still fantastic seeing it on screen. Tarantino's a very visual director so a lot of the brilliance of the film will be the way the actors deliver their lines, the look of the film, the soundtrack... I'll love it just the same. Read Basterds as well and loved it even more.

[Expendable.]

I have ZERO problems reading the script. It has helped immensely on providing better coverage of the film and it's also going to be amazing to see how Tarantino translates all of his words to the screen. I did get the Gravity script though, holding off on that one :)

[Solo]

Pretty much going to be between this and Killing Them Softly for my MOTY, if both live up to their potential.

[Zeliard]

Oh man, you better. I would actually feel bad for you if you read that script.

What's Killing Them Softly?

This doesn't actually come out until next year in the UK but I'll count it as such, and while I'm very hyped for TDKR the trailers haven't completely sold it to me yet, so it's between this, Prometheus and Cogan's Trade.

Assasination of Jesse James reunion.

Oh they renamed Cogan's Trade? Hahah then yes I namechecked it in the last post!

[KingK]

Any ideas on when we'll get a trailer for this?

July/August

So far away :(

How the hell have we not got any official pics from the shoot? Except for the single one of Waltz.

It's a December film and isn't a blockbuster. Set pics are all we should expect until June/July I think.

shit just got real

lol @ JGL

[Clevinger]

Leo can't grow a beard for shit.

Waltz without beard, poster sucks.
