Inglourious Basterds

[Pablito]

I thought it was self-indulgent but entertaining. And I thought there were tinges of anti-semitism in it. Great performance by the SS officer, agree on that.

DeNiro uses an (evil) Leica R (7?) in Ronin. The bad guy uses a Nikon (FE or FM-something), of course.

Whoops, looks like they aren't the only ones w/o cajones. The keeper of our minds won't even allow me to type in bast**rds. Bunch of t*rds.

Decided to edit myself. Times, and company, being what they are.

I wondered about that (spelling). I'm with you, Hollywood can't make a movie anymore, too bad. But darn it my wife keeps dragging me to them. Well, at least I get a nap.

I completely agree.

BTW, I also loved Shutter Island and would recommend anyone to go see it.

I'd go to spelling school myself, if I were you. It's cojones, not cajones.

And did you by any chance notice that it's not just the word basterd but also the word inglourious that's misspelled? I can only speculate but I would assume that the misspelling of the words should imply that they (the basterds) are an illiterate bunch.
