The New "Inglorious" Trailer

Quentin Tarantino's most recent trailer for Inglorious Basterds is here - with lots of hints of spectacular action and a femme fatale to boot.


And there's news the director's thinking of making a prequel to the movie.

Star Tissue

Brad Pitt looking less than pretty in this poster from Quentin Tarantino’s new WWII movie Inglorious Basterds. Pitt plays Aldo Raine, an Army Lieutenant with gristle for a soul and a previous pain in the neck, if his throat-spanning scar is any indication. Raine's task: recruit a squad of Nazi-killing soldiers and drop them in occupied France to wreak havoc. You can see what happens when the movie storms ashore this August. More pictures at the Vanity Fair site. As for Brad's hickey, take a poll: gross or no? Vote at right.
