For those wondering if B.J. Novak's absence from The Office of late will be worth it, you now have an opportunity to view the teaser trailer for Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds. The WWII film tells the story of a group of eight Jewish soldiers, including Novak's character, who cross enemy lines and basically kick Nazi butt. Brad Pitt stars as the leader of the group and Novak appears briefly in the trailer sporting a period haircut.
Matt says: Wow, that looks seriously ridiculous. Could this be the first "campy" WWII movie about mutilating Nazis?The film will be released on August 21, 2009

Hmmm, I\'m uncertain about this one. I usually like war movies because most of them have themes of valor, honor and overcoming horrible obstacles while retaining and transcending ones humanity, but this looks like a killing spree on film. Also not a huge fan of Brad Pitt. . .

I think it\'s looks strange because we\'re not used to seeing this kind of war film. We\'re so used to the SAVING PRIVATE RYAN and PASSCHENDAELE (Canadian movie about WW1) type of film that it\'s strange to see something more in vein of THE DIRTY DOZEN or THE GREAT ESCAPE or the recent VALKYRIE. I think this will be QT\'s take on those films with a bit of Sam Fuller thrown into the mix. Short answer: AWESOME!!!!
