‘Inglourious Basterds’ Teaser Trailer!

It was reported recently that we’d finally get our first look at Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds some time this week. Unexpectedly, this promise actually carried through and here now, is the first teaser trailer!

The trailer features Brad Pitt — using a much stronger, militant version of his Assassination of Jesse James accent — looking for 8 soldiers to help him kill the Nazis; he demands 100 Nazi scalps of each of them. That’s 800 f’n Nazi scalps, for those of you who refuse to learn math because it’s how the aliens will eventually control us and take over Earth. The trailer shows a lot of other stuff, too… including a little Hitler action for you all. I don’t want to ruin the whole party though, you’ll have to jump below to watch the trailer here a few hundred times, as I will be. No word on if all 800 scalpings will be featured, but I assume if they were, this movie would be far past a R-rating.

Inglourious Basterds follows two storylines during World War II. One storyline is about a young girl who witnesses her family’s execution before narrowly escaping; she then starts a new life as the operator of a theater. The other storyline follows a troupe of Jewish-American soldiers who set off on a special mission to slaughter the Nazis.


Along with Brad Pitt as Aldo Raine (the leader of the Jewish soldiers), Diane Kruger (National Treasure, Troy), Mélanie Laurent, B.J. Novak (The Offcie), Samm Levine (Freaks and Geeks), Mike Myers, and Til Schweiger (King Arthur) also star.

Tarantino made a promise that his movie would be ready for Cannes this year, which means it should be seen by May, but we regular folk will have to wait until August 21, 2009 to get our fill.
