Hot off last week's announcement that the first teaser trailer for Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained would play with Prometheus when it opens June 8th, comes this new batch of promo stills from the movie (via Facebook, Bohemea). In the one above, it seems Jamie Foxx (Django) skinned a Shar Pei and made the crotch of his pants out of it. (His crotch is all wrinkly, is what I'm saying).
The basic plot is that Jamie Foxx plays Django, a slave freed by bounty hunter Christoph Waltz, who teaches Django the tricks of the trade and helps him find his wife, Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), who ends up in a crazy place called Candyland, where a sadistic slavemaster named Calvin Candy (Leonardo DiCaprio) makes his slaves do gladiatorial-style battle.
Also of note in the pictures is Franco Nero, who played the original Django in Keoma (aka Django Rides Again) and Django Strikes Again. It's hard to tell exactly who he's playing, but I'm sure his cameo will be a thrilling moment for Quentin Tarantino and at least 12 other dudes. Make sure you memorize his face and clap extra loud when he comes on screen during the screening so that the other film nerds recognize you as one of their own and invite you to their secret trenchcoat parties.
I love the slack-jawed yokel in the background in the right of the frame. Every good western scene has at least one slack-jawed yokel.
For the last time, Quentin, his crotch looks fine. Jesus, we have other stuff to shoot today, you know.
So far, I think Hunter S. Thompson is the only person who's used a cigarette holder in a movie where it wasn't shorthand for him being evil.
Christoph Waltz' horse has emo bangs.
THERE'S Franco Nero. I don't know what they're talking about, but Jamie Foxx is doing the "Watchoo talkin' bout, Franco Nero?" face.

When it comes to cigarette holders =/= evil, don’t forget Holly Golightly.
Ahh, good point. I knew I was forgetting someone.
Maybe not “evil,” but I wouldn’t trust that bitch.
DiCaprio’s beard looks straight out of a early 80s Playboy.
Can’t they get along? I mean, they’ve got the SAME BEARD forchrissakes!!!
Wrinkly crotch descriptions are always welcome, never know when they’ll come in handy.

Did someone say something about a Sharon Stone cameo?
Dammit Quentin, for the last time: The part of Jamie Foxx’ crotch can’t be played by Uma Thurman’s feet. Even the Coke Wizard thought that was a stupid idea!
Franco Nero is just a stage name, of course. His real name is Hitler Caligula.
+1
That scarf has got me in a vendetta kinda mood.
Is Franco Nero also the General from Die Hard 2?
And Vince was down to see this movie the second he heard the term “Slaves”. “That means there’ll be plantations!!!”
Well so much for the ‘secret’ trenchcoat parties now. thanks asshole.
Is the slackjawed yokel in the second pic Captain Spaulding from 1000 Corpses?
As per that last pic is Jamie Foxxxxx reprising his role from Horrible Bosses?
Jamie Foxx’s picture looks like it was taken from a J Crew catalog.
Bruce Villanche says: “The Bro Toe is so IN this summer!
Franco Nero:
Nero dicknoses while Rome burns…
You can stop djumping up and down now.
