Roger Ebert once again gives 4 stars to a QT flick (Inglourious Basterds)

[Mase]

I saw this last night and yet again all the hype could not diminish this fantastic film, Bravo to everyone involved!!

I cant remember the last time I saw back to back movies that were this damn good (the other being D9). These two films have saved the season for me..

Yeah, I love seeing two great movies back to back in a 1 week span.

+1

Exactly how I felt.

And then I threw (500) Days of Summer in there and it was a trifecta.

I still really want to see that film, I just cant find anyone to go with. I have heard nothing but great things about that movie.

that will be a first day redbox, im a big fan of joseph gordon-levitt (i know you are too) and so glad to see him finally climb his way up to the stardom he deserves...

i've been talking and thinking about this movie all week it's grew on me so much since ive seen it and i loved it then..ive been wanting to see it again really badly but no one wants to see it twice

I went to a matinee showing of Inglourious Basterds today. To say this is now one of my favorite movies is an understatement! This is Tarentino's finest movie so far. Pulp Fiction was just a warmup by comparison (and I love Pulp Fiction). Tarentino's masterful use of the spoken word to build suspense and tension is unparalleled here. The camera angles are a masterstroke. And, to top it off, we get Oscar-worthy performances all around. Brad Pitt is magnificent. Mélanie Laurent is sensational (and OHHHHH so sexy in that red dress and red lipstick!!). And Christoph Waltz is phenomenal. I'm not sure if Waltz should get the Oscar for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, or both. He was that good!

Unless something unexpected happens in the next 3 months, Inglourious Basterds will rule the Academy Awards. Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor and perhaps one of the Best Actresses categories. Best Costume Design and Best Writing - Original Screenplay are likely here too.

This movie was simply brilliant! Suspenseful, dramatic, humorous, violent and highly engrossing! The 2.5 hours went by like it was 1 hour. I could have walked right back in and watched it again and I know I'd have enjoyed it just as much.

This is one movie where I may end up violating my own rule on how much I'll spend for a Blu-ray! I'm probably going to end up getting this on the day it is released on Blu and that will probably mean I'll have to pay over $20 for the privilege.

P.S. I really liked it!

I agree, IGB might get several nominations.

Just like Pulp Fiction.

[Onslaught X]

Well, there's still a lot of Oscar potential films to come out, but I'd say that nominations for Director, Supporting Actor, and Best Picture are a lock at this point. Probably Original Screenplay as well

[Dennis M.]

With ten nominations this year I'd also say that a Best Picture nod is a lock. Best supporting actor is certain as well, in fact unless another extraordinary performance emerges I'd really like to see Christophe Waltz win it.
Best director and original screenplay are really up in the air, depending on the overall quality of the year. I don't consider this to be among Tarantino's better films but maybe his fellow directors and writers will feel otherwise.

[zach.riggs]

I agree with Mark and Cheez on the nominations.

The original screenplay category is always lacking these days. Adapted is where its at it seems.
