Re: Inglourious Basterds and District 9

I'm thinking of going for Inglorious Basterds. District 9 trailer looked bad. I won't go for it.

Re: Inglourious Basterds and District 9

I LOVED District 9, but I hated Inglorious Basterds so much that I turned it off after about 25 minutes. (< Downloaded :-$)

Re: Inglourious Basterds and District 9

District 9 was awsome

well set, good action and a well executed story

struck me as being very true to human nature

also amused me that they named the alien Christopher lol

"awesome, gruesome, cool, amazing, excellent, different" are better choices Jim 8)

Re: Inglourious Basterds and District 9

D9 was brilliant, I laughed the entire way through at the horribly horribly afrikaans accents everyone seemed to have :lol:

And there were a bunch of things only South Africans would've picked up on I feel, the one really worth mentioning is at one point when a grenade is thrown "Go Bokke" is shouted :lol:

Such a brilliant movie :-D

Re: Inglourious Basterds and District 9

Am I the only one that though D9 was the biggest waste of film ever? I would honestly rather raid for 2 hours on sgw! :shock:

it was so poor, the director needs shooting before he can commit another heinous crime against humanity [-(

Re: Inglourious Basterds and District 9

indeed...

for the first bit we were quite "huh?"

but then it picked up later on...

it was very different from most movies... not the kind that everyone will like, but still worth watching...

I havent seen the original 1978 film and it's revue shows very few similarities, but what the hell was Tarantino thinking trying to do a remake, bad remakes being the curse of Hollywood in recent years.

Poor, would NOT recommend



I've got to disagree.....I really enjoyed Inglorious.....There was a Shakespearean quality to it in the way he set up the characters and plot.....quite obvious where the film was going but every bit as dramatic and breath-taking when you get there (just as in every Shakespeare play). Very stylishly done......I think he missed a trick by calling them "chapters" instead of "acts", but otherwise I loved it.

And I agree with Mordack (god, how many times have I found myself posting that over the years?), Hans Landa made that film.....a modern Iago ;)
