That's just the way you say it: Basterds."[18][20] Tarantino later stated in an interview that the misspelled title is "a Basquiat-esque touch."[21] He further commented on Late Show with David Letterman that Inglourious Basterds is the "Tarantino way of spelling it."[22]<br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inglourious_BasterdsMelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03696418292109650421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1059300042932446393.post-57317611957757578372010-08-24T11:35:29.178-04:002010-08-24T11:35:29.178-04:00basterds forever! this is the greatest movie ever....basterds forever! this is the greatest movie ever. i want a sequel!P51 Mustanghttp://www.dieselpunks.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1059300042932446393.post-63488246716445379652010-08-23T13:34:41.823-04:002010-08-23T13:34:41.823-04:00Aha, but the quote in question comes from a delete...Aha, but the quote in question comes from a deleted scene in the film, in which a woman utters that sentence to Donny Donowitz <i>before</i> the Basterds are formed (and implying that this is the origin of their name) in a flashback sequence. So she was specifically saying "bastards" as in the common vernacular, not "Basterds". <br /><br />- JSHTransylvania Gentlemenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08563428456402168755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1059300042932446393.post-60305746563761597902010-08-23T11:04:51.848-04:002010-08-23T11:04:51.848-04:00I noticed you corrected the spelling of "bast...I noticed you corrected the spelling of "basterd"....... my internal spellcheck keeps wanting to do that too ;)fresh5510noreply@blogger.com
