First Look at Brad Pitt

First look at Aldo Raine

October 17th, 2008 - 5pm GMT / (posted by Sebastian)

Let me introduce you to the principal Basterd, the head honcho Basterd, most Inglourious of all Basterds, Lt. Aldo Raine (insert applause here). We've got a first look at Brad Pitt in full resistance fighter gear for you. Remember, this ain't your Warner Brothers 1950s WW2 hero, this is a hillbilly straight from the mountains of Tennessee, a man with a scar around his neck that "will never once be mentioned," this is Brad Pitt in one hundred percent Quentin Tarantino Nazi-scalping business. If you drooled over those few pictures of the farmhouse set we ran last week that almost killed our server, get ready to see the site slow down in a few hours. Here's a little quote from the much quoted Aldo Raine opening speech: "? I sure as hell, didnt come down from the goddamn Smoky Mountains, cross five thousand miles of water, fight my way through half Sicily, and then jump out of a ****in air-o-plane, to teach the Nazi's lessons in humanity." So click on Brad Pitt here to the right?. and stay tuned for more inglorious coverage of Inglourious Basterds

The film that singlehandedly proves that movie fans can be excited about a film despite horrendous misspelling, Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, has a release date - and it's August 21, 2009.

The World War II-set film stars Brad Pitt as Lieutenant Aldo Raine, the leader of a group of Jewish soldiers carrying out targetted acts of retribution against the Nazis in Occupied France. They join with undercover agent Bridget von Hammersmark (Diane Kruger) to try to take down the leaders of the Third Reich, but their plans bring them into contact with a Jewish woman, Shoshanna (M?lanie Laurent) who has her own revenge plans.

The new release date for the US puts the film up against horror Final Destination: Death Trip 3D and comedy The Goods: The Don Ready Story. It's a summer blockbuster sort of slot - a similar release date to Tropic Thunder last year - and while it hasn't been confirmed yet if the UK release date will be the same, expect it to come not too long after that day.

Teaser Trailer This Week (Source)

Want to see the trailer for Quentin Tarantino?s Inglourious Basterds? Well apparently the teaser trailer will be premiering on Entertainment Tonight this coming week according to Tarantino Archives, possibly on Thursday as the French site Allocine.fr was the first to claim.

I ignorantly wrote the news off over the weekend as a false rumor because I just didn?t believe there was a film coming out next week for the teaser to be attached to that also targets the same demographic and or is being released by The Weinstein Co. But apparently I was wrong. May-be it will be attached to Friday the 13th? Just seems like such an odd choice.

While the film has just entered post production, the movie is being rushed for a premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May. Thanks to /Film reader Christopher M for the tip.

I can't wait for this movie.

Wow, the trailer is mind blowing. Also brad pitt is awesome. And lol at the hitler at the end of trailer.

btw the only quentin tarantino's movie sucked ass was Death Proof. Who's agree? :D

I thought Four Rooms was terrible (though he only did one segment of it) and I hated Jackie Brown.

I can't wait for this movie.

I thought Four Rooms was terrible (though he only did one segment of it) and I hated Jackie Brown.

:o Four Rooms was hilarious. I've never watched Jackie Brown all the way through despite owning it on DVD. I hate really long films.

Four Rooms was awesome!

Jackie Brown - Hated it the first time I watched it, but I have since watched it 3 more times and its brilliant!

Yeah Death Proof was awful, mind you Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror was pretty bad. Infact Grindhouse was just pathetic.

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times
