did anyone notice in the trailer.. that there is a scar on Pitt's throat?

I read the first 2 chapters of the script (didn't want to read it all and spoil it :p) but the scene from the trailer is in it, and in the script it says:

"The scar will never once be mentioned"

That is great! A good catch on both accounts; observing the scar, and revealing its (lack of) nature. :D

I probably shouldn't have put quotation marks around it, as those words aren't actually said by anyone!

It's just mentioned in the script, showing that the scar will remain a mystery throughout and just adds a bit of edge to that character I guess.

I hope they have those posters for the other Basterds as well. I doubt they will though, because Pitt is the most recognizable among them; but it would make for a ****ing awesome set of wall/door posters if they had them all.

I hope so to, or at least release a big poster I loved the first poster with the baseball bat so epic.

The war genre has been done to death, there are at least 3 BIG movies each year that about the same stuff, and about another 7 based on the time period, so I was kind of reluctant to follow this, but looking and how cool Kill Bill ended and that Brad Pitt is it, it's must be ****in awesome.

Ok, I though you were being sarcastic at the end of your post, so I was harsh, but if you weren't I will say (in defense of the film; )

This is not just another "Brad Pitt" movie. You will be sorely mistaken if you expect this to be "Ocean's Fifteen" This is not even "Kill Bill meets WWII"...if you don't get it, you don't get it....and nobody can someone for that at this point as the movie is not out yet. I just say, even with preconceptions, wouldn't quite count it out just yet.

Edit: this is mostly a bad post because I caught what I said wrong at the wrong time. So; Pick it is as you will!

but then I will always question why . Everything I do see on screen should be significant. Especially something as big as the scar. Like he should be dead? but he's not? like WTF? lol.

    • Rufus alternative Ventoy now supports Windows 11's mandatory update, fixes major boot bug by Sayan Sen While Microsoft has its own official Media Creation Tool used for making bootable USB media, there are some popular third-party utilities as well which offer additional options like bypassing system requirements, Microsoft Account creation, and more. One of these is Ventoy, and the software has received its latest update today. In fact, the app actually got a slew of updates over the last couple of days, three version releases in total, to be specific. The first release, version 1.1.13, was pulled as there was some unspecified error in the update, and as such, the corrected version 1.1.14 was pushed out. Following that on very short notice, 1.1.15 was published as well. For those unfamiliar, Ventoy is an open-source utility that lets users create a bootable USB drive once and then simply copy ISO, WIM, IMG, VHD, or EFI files onto it without repeatedly formatting the drive. It supports both legacy BIOS and UEFI boot modes, Secure Boot, and a wide range of operating systems, making it one of the most versatile tools in the category. The biggest change in version 1.1.14 is an updated Secure Boot shim file aimed at resolving the UEFI CA 2023 issue, which is basically a compatibility problem that has affected Secure Boot environments on some systems. If you recall, we reported about severe boot issues on HP devices following the release of updated Secure Boot 2023 keys. For anyone who may not be aware, back in early 2024, Microsoft announced that it was updating Secure Boot keys as they were going to become 15 years old in 2026, which is also when they are set to expire. As such, the new 2023 certificates have been rolling out with the newest Windows 11 updates. Updated boot manager and Secure Boot certificates are crucial for protection against malware like bootkits. These are mandatory updates. Alongside that, the VentoyPlugson graphical plugin configurator was updated in sync with the release. The update also introduces a new VTOY_SECURE_BOOT_POLICY option within the Global Control plugin, giving users more flexibility in managing Secure Boot behavior. Ventoy has also received a fix for a startup issue when Secure Boot was disabled. Microsoft does officially allow users to boot systems without Secure Boot as long as the PC is Secure Boot capable. The full changelog is given below: Update secure boot shim file to solve the UEFI CA 2023 issue. The new release use a new CA, so you need to enroll the new key for the first boot time. VentoyPlugson update synchronously. Global control plugin add a VTOY_SECURE_BOOT_POLICY option. Fix the boot issue when Secure Boot is disabled in the UEFI firmware. You can download the latest version of the app here on Ventoy's official GitHub repo or from Neowin software stories.
    • Windows 11 is fine, no issues on any of the machines I've run it on since release. The stricter security requirements are a good thing, sometimes the baseline needs to change and people will winge, but it is what it is. Happened with the move from 9x to NT - broke compatability Happened with XP SP2 when security started to become a serious consideration Certainly happend with Vista that brought in UAC, the concept of not running as admin (something that has been the norm in Linux/Unix from pretty much the start) and a completely new driver stack. Windows 11 will probably get looked back at as the point where even consumer and SMB IT was dragged kicking and screaming into a somewhat secure by default configuration.
    • Bluestacks has been emulating Android on Windows for fifteen years. It's janky and riddled with ads though, so WSA looked like it was going to be a huge improvement over the emulator experience. Too bad Microsoft dropped the ball on that.
    • Classic. China would be nothing without Western, Japanese, and South Korean technology.
    • The world is larger then your small viewpoint. Plenty of scientists care about this, especially those involved in space.
