Box Office Preview: Can Quentin Tarantino's 'Inglourious Basterds' save The Weinstein Co.?

G.I. Joe might not be high art, but I don’t see why it deserves a dig when EW keeps shilling for franchises that are just as awful if not worse. So what makes Joe any more worthy of a sneer than Transformers or, for the love of God, Twilight?
Seeing Basterds this weekend and can’t wait. And Will, the misspelling is deliberate. It’s not a typo.

I really like Pitt as an actor. I find he makes he choices mostly based on interest not on what they will do for his celebrity (like Tom Cruise). He is not afraid to be unattractive (12 Monkeys) unlikable (Kalifornia) or weak (Legends Of The Fall). I hope IB does great business for him and Tarantino.

Nathan I couldn’t agree more about Inglourious Basterds you A-rod loving SOB.

I’m glad James and others are calling EW out on their misguided G I Joe hate. It’s not an arthouse film but neither is alot of the reel garbage they promote incessantly. It’s impossible to take critics and reviewers seriously when there’s so much inconsistency in their criticisms and so much favoritism in their reporting. Learn to call a spade, a spade regardless of what studio, tv network, or other media outlet sponsors it. People don’t want to hear how wonderful something is when it’s really boring or disgusting, or just plan awful. And consistent lies leads to a lack of trust and a lack of followers, which result in a lack of sales. BTW, I saw Inglorious Basterds today. It is super long, boring in sections, extremely violent, contains Tarantino’s trademark weird combo of matching out of place music with cinematography, and its not the bloody mess that Kill Bill was. Still though, it is brilliant especially in the way it all comes together in the end. I’d give it 3 out of 4 stars.

Inglourious Basterds is great filmaking. Anybody who says is boring is because you are young and just like explosions and chase scenes or robots killing each other all the time. The basterds is not only Brad Pitt and his crew is about evryboady the is against the nazis is this movie. The movie goes at its own pace but is a beatiful pace, setting up the action scenes. Its a film for adults than can enjoy a movie that is 85% subtitle. I can enjoy an all out action movie but give me a movie like the basterds and i will enjoy it more because i can sit and watch characters play of each other with a great script. Tarantino has the ability and not much people can comprehend that kind of filmaking or just dont see the point of it. Me and millions of other people can appreciate when movies like this come once evry 3 or 4 years. Long live the basterds!!

I’m a woman who enjoys good movies I saw the Basterd and it was great worth every penny . I did send the kids to see GI JOE 17 and 14 yr olds so would have not enjoyed the Basterds
