Inglorious Bastards Split?
Yeah, we were talking about Inglorious Bastards a couple of hours a go," Madsen told FilmFocus, "he's got an interesting idea of how to make it. I think he's going to cut it up into a couple of different parts, 'cos it's a big story to tell and he doesn't want to cram it all into one show. I don't know the whole story of how he's going to do it but eventually we'll get there, you know."Please tell me that cutting Bastards into multiple movies is absolutely necessary. Splitting Kill Bill ticked off alot of people, and probably hurt the movie's chance at being seriously considered for many awards. Lets hope we aren't headed down that road again over a film that might be 30 minutes longer than the studio would like. Please, QT - one movie.
Madsen also told us the project was one very close to him, "I'm looking forward to doing it," he said, "my father's brother was killed in World War 2, my dad was in the Navy and my cousin Kenny was a helicopter pilot in Vietnam. I've always wanted to play a soldier and being able to do it was Quentin is obviously going to be a great time. A great experience, you know. I think his take on it is gonna be... different. It ain't gonna be the norm that's for sure."

It does suck that the movie's chances for awards would be slim if cut in half, but Quentin knows what he is doing and I have faith he will make the right call.

I think he means like Pupl Fiction than Kill Bill with the cutting up of the movie, I don't know. If it means more movie to love, I can wait...

Now that Disney is out of the way, I think QT will get to do whatever the hell he wants...judging by his desire to release kill bill in one part, he probably would like to do the same for IB

I liked Kill Bill split into 2. If a movie's good enough then you'll want to see more and more. And, come on, it's Quentin, have some faith.

The only reason I'd be against it if it were a marketing scheme and I don't think Q.T. would do that to his fans. Its not for money, its for creativity. So all the power to him; Inglorious Bastards V1, V2, V3, who cares!

KILL BILL was an epic. It required two volumes for multiple reasons:
1) Tarantino was planning on making this a very long and thick story.
2)The side which resembled the East and 1960's Kung Fu films (Volume 1) and the side which resembled the West and Spaghetti Westerns (Volume 2) could not both be presented in the same film
3) There are more reasons why, but the two above were the most obvious.

Unless Inglorious Bastards is trying to mimic another style of film, it will most likely be put out as ONE FILM ONLY!

i think it is good to split it up. That way he wont have to cram it in one movie. If he would have done Kill Bill like that(in one movie) it would not have been as good.
