GRINDHOUSE DVD Details

Some bad news (maybe) about the DVDs for Death Proof and Planet Terror. According to The Movie Blog, neither will contain any of the fake trailers that aired with GRINDHOUSE in theaters.

QT Talks Inglorious Bastards A Tiny Bit

QT talked a bit about Inglorious Bastards while over in Germany, but he says he doesn’t want to say too much as it might “jinx it”.

If I speak about it, I will jinx it. I will talk about it when it is done.
It is sort of a spaghetti western set in World War 2. I am not going to call it this, but if I had a subtitle for it, it would be Once Upon a Time in Nazi-occupied France.

GRINDHOUSE 2 RUMORS

I rather doubt that it’ll happen, but the little bits of info about GRINDHOUSE 2 possibilities continue to float around.

“Robert (Rodriguez) said he’d do it (Machete) and asked for us to be in it,” they explain, “Robert wants to do GRINDHOUSE 2 with (the two films being) “Machete” and “The Babysitter Twins.”

QT Does F1

Quentin went to the F1 race in Germany this weekend while out promoting Death Proof.

Five Fingers Of Death

The Shaw Brothers King Boxer (Five Fingers Of Death) has been released on DVD, and it features a commentary track from Quentin.
Blog Critics has a detailed review if you are interested.

Kill Bill Potato Head

If The Bride was a Mr. Potato Head. Very cool stuff.

Competition For Inglorious Bastards

If Quentin is still serious about making Inglorious Bastards his next film, he may want to get moving on the project ASAP. It looks like Joel Silver and Zak Penn are going to be re-making The Dirty Dozen.
Inglorious Bastards isn’t the same film, but its similar enough that it could cause box office troubles if they both get released near the same time. And given the box office problems that GRINDHOUSE had, taking that risk might not be such a hot idea.
So Quentin, get moving!
