AMC Theatres tried it with a particular movie, Cinderella Man, but that was it.

I must have missed “kill bunny”. And here I thought I saw all of Tarantino’s films!
Brilliant filmmaker, feel sorry for those that can’t appreciate them.

I think I’ll cut out the middle-man and just avoid this jewish holo-porn flick. Congratulations Tarantino. You did good for your masters. Consider funding for your next 3 projects financed.

I thought the movie was hilarious. I’m kinda surprised that people can’t take this as just fiction/joke and move on. The bar scene makes my day though. Seriously funny stuff. “Don’t gotta be Stonewall Jackson to know you don’t go fightin in an f’in basement.”

I really cannot not see how anybody could walk out on this movie, unless they hated gore and subtitles. In which case, grow up.

what gore? there’s barely any in this movie.
compared to those japanese freaks like Tokyo Gore Police, it’s like a Disney cartoon

I suppose some wouldn’t consider a ‘full shot of a swastika being carved into a man’s forehead with a knife-’ gore?
Certainly seems mild to Kill Bill and other crazy gore-y movies, but it’s one of the most frequent complaints about this movie.

Don’t forget about when that guy was pouring lead into Hitler’s face. I expected him to be cut up, but when it started deforming, it went to a new level.

Hey, is there a lot of dialogue in German and French in this? I want to see it, but I won’t be able to keep up with the Japanese subtitles.

Yes, there certainly is. Scenes up to 30 minutes can be completely in German/French.
There’s even a little Italian (Dohohoho)
Perhaps watch it online, or buy the DVD when it comes out.

I would have been totally confused. (But at least I could have gotten a refund, I suppose.)
