Absolutely Brilliant, Quentin Tarantino's best film if you are clever enough to appreciate it. The film is 80% subtitled as the main languages spoken are French and German, with pretty much only Brad Pitt's scenes in English. The subtitles were brilliant though because they completely submursed you in the film, the acting was also brilliant and the French girl Melanie Laurent was absolutely beautiful.

A review has been posted by a film critic at Guardian. It's safe to say he didn't enjoy this movie after reading the review, he gave it a 1 out of 5 stars. I'm still going to see it.

Inglorious Basterds is the full name but now when they advertise it over here they say "go see Inglorious" which is pretty lame and they blur out Basterds in interviews they have done

That is really odd. Usually it is the US that censors everything and we're allowing this without any censoring at all.

Oh, and don't forget it has the extra "u" in Inglourious ;)

I typically don't care what mainstream critics think, but I have a lot of respect for Roger Ebert. I went to his site today to check out his review of IB and to my amazement, he gave it 4 out of 4 stars!!! :|

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
