08.05.09 A NEW INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS, UH… THING
The Weinstein Co has released the trailer for Nation’s Pride, a Nazi propaganda film-within-a-film which you’ll apparently get to see bits and pieces of during Inglourious Basterds. The Nation’s Pride trailer was actually directed by Eli Roth, who also contributed the Thanksgiving trailer (video below) that played in the middle of Grindhouse. I like Eli Roth because he emailed me once.
The Nation’s Pride trailer, which purports to tell the story of fictional Nazi hero Fredrick Zoller (Daniel Bruhl), is a little odd in that it doesn’t really attempt to look like a German propaganda film at all. It’s also in English, and at one point has a title card that says “crowned in gloury” — a meta-joke about Tarantino’s inability to spell, I presume. Or maybe the entire film takes place in an alternate history, like Watchmen, only in Inglourious Basterds, pretty much everything is the same except that stuff is spelled differently. And Jews are all handsome and cool like Brad Pitt. Yes, those dyslexic Weinstein brothers are sure to love this one, Quentin whispered to his typewriter.

I like Eli Roth cuz he’s hot. Also: Hostel.
Of course it’s in english. If WWII films have taught me anything is that Germans all speak perfect english with British accents.
Did JHC die? (for our zins)
So you’re telling me a bunch of Jews put out a Nazi propaganda film directed by another Jew.
Wasn’t that Schindler’s List?
Dis movie Vill Be A Hit…ler.
Hahahahah!
Dunca. Dunca.
Saving Private Reinsdorf.
The Nazis just expected people to Goebbels this shit up.
I haven’t heard an accent as bad as Pitt’s since DiCaprio’s in Blood Diamond.
Auuuuuuuuschwitz!
Hitler’s at it again!
well – I guess if americans had made nazi propaganda movies, they would indeed look exactly like this… watch the actor though, it’s Daniel Brühl, one of Germany’s finest at the moment.
