The music was inspired as well. When Bowie kicked in, that was the greatness. Man, I want to watch this on blu, like right now.

This was less a movie and more a revolutionary act, a grenade against the Transformers and Zac Efron vehicles of the world. Loved it so, so, so much. I think it was around the time I realized Pitt was half-channelling John Wayne with that accent -- and nailing it -- I was like "This is the best thing I have ever seen in my life."
And I fucking love that at least 60 percent of the movie was subtitled. What a commitment.

This has actually been a great year for media with the theme "Jews kick ass." One fantastic thriller novel (Beat the Reaper, which I guess you could describe as part Crank, part ER, and part mob story), one light but fun detective novel called "Boca Knights" (about a retired Boston cop who moves to Boca Raton, has a lot of sex, and fights meth dealers and neo-Nazis), and this. As someone who is continuinly distressed by the e-mails I get from the SPLC about the rise of hate groups and hate crime in 'Merica, I can fully get behind this trend.
Although I did like, as others have pointed out, the hit-like-a-truck-of-bricks realization during the final sequence that you were basically watching Jews herd Nazis into a small building and burn them alive. There's one shot of the Reich command crawling over each other and falling atop one another that is very reminiscint of Holocaust war footage that I found haunting.
THE ONE THING I DID NOT GET PLZ HELP:
In the bar sequence, after Archie has been found out and has the Luger pointed at his nuts, the SS officer says "You're as German as this scotch." Archie says "that makes two of us." Is that in reference to his gun, or something else? I guess because the real German goes to English with his dialogue after that I got a bit confused.Last edited by BudLeonard; 08-23-2009, 11:20 AM.

Originally posted by Russ View PostI think he was making an implication toward the SS officer being closer to an Englishman than to a German, as he spoke their language and indulged in their drink.

That's kind of what I picked up on. I did pick up on the 3 finger mistake though. Sometimes it pays to be German. It was also neat to understand like every 3rd word haha."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG
