I know everybody feels obligated to talk about Inglorious Bastards, and as much of a troll as “blabby” is on your Tarantino post, I have to basically agree - I think it sounds like a cool movie, and it’s really tiring to go around to all the blogs and see people talking about how much they don’t care about it and think it’s going to be stupid. Just let us have our fun.
