My wife watches Inglourious Basterds for the FIRST time 

This movie was almost canned because Tarantino couldn’t find an actor who could speak fluent French German Italian and English but then he found Christopher Waltz who could speak all of those languages fluently and he saved this masterpiece

So it seems we only get Clone Wars content on Star Wars Week? That's a shame

11:10 You take that back Holden…YOU FREAKIN TAKE THAT BACK!! NOOOO!!!

Waltz is brilliant in this. Landa is such an intelligent character, almost always one step ahead of everybody else. Right down to the moment he made Shosanna wait for the cream on her strudel, knowing it wasn't kosher.

HOLDEN and his little puns hahaha

Watch again holden! Jen was right about James Remar (Harry Morgan) playing two characters.

20:00 that strangling scene is Tarantinos hands I believe

Fassbender can speak German pretty good. He seems little slow but all in all pretty good.

Christopher Waltz’s performance in this movie is just incredible.

For a German, it is pretty easy to recognize Fassbender´s character as a non-native speaker. He does a really good job, don`t get me wrong, but it does sound a little off. So the Nazis commenting on his accent makes perfect sense.

My favourite detail is how Tarantino makes Landa such an opportunist. The moment he sees that giving up his Nazi career will benefit him, he does. At the start of the film, Jew Hunter is a title he likes “because I’ve earned it” he says, whereas he juxtopposes this later by saying “it’s just a name that stuck”. Pure evil but so chilling and smart.

Jesus Holden 😂 that antisemitic role play joke was INSANE. I hope to god one day I find someone who I can joke with like that. Jen gets points for how she reacted to that level 11 💀

It says something that Christoph Waltz's double Oscar wins were both for Tarantino films. They have a great relationship together as actor/director.

The thing I love about Tarantino... if he needs someone to play a german character, he casts german (or austrian) actors. He needs an actor who plays a brit that himself can speak german fluently, he cast a british actor that can also speak german. He needs a french woman, he casts a french actress. Thats a huge factor why this movie is so great. It works not only cause the story and acting in general is great. But cause the used languages work for americans/brits as well as germans/austrians/swiss while watching...

As a German, I can tell the difference in accents. That being said, Fassbender is very fluent and it is a subtle difference. Also yes, Chrisoph Waltz was amazing in this and it won him a well-earned Oscar for best supporting actor. He then went on to win the category _again_ for Django!

To me, this is Tarantino's best film. It represents a culmination of Tarantino's skills he's developed over the years: dialog, build up of tension, camera movement and direction in general, squeezing the absolute best out of his actors... Actually, Tarantino might agree with this take as well with the last line of the movie, "...this very well may be my masterpiece..."

Jen in Django: I recognize that random background guy that died earlier! Jen here: I didnt even recognize the main bad guy was a main good guy before!

Interesting fact, if you look at Hans Landa in the opening scene when he greets la petite daughters he actually checks their pulse to measure their level of anxiety before talking to la petite. Excellent writing and acting

The bar scene works so perfectly because apart from Fassbender all other actors in the scene are native German speakers, so while his accent is minimal (I think Fassbender is partly of German descent) it is still noticable, which obviously grounds the caused suspicion even before the wrong "three sign".

Tarantino films are characterized by incredible heightened dialog, often on-the-nose stylized editing, over the top depictions of violence, and just very unique storytelling. They almost never fail to entertain in ways other films do not. He has a particularly unique genius in the craft. He has a way of pulling very surprising and unexpected performances from big name actors.

Man, the acting in this movie is phenomenal. I fell in love with Christoph Waltz with this movie. He's so good in every scene he's in. Brad Pitt plays Aldo Raine perfectly. I couldn't imagine anyone else in the role. He plays it so unapologetically American. And I love every moment he's on screen.

Fun Fact: Michael Fassbender was actually born in Germany and spent his summers there as a child. As a result, he is fluent in the language.

"This might be my masterpiece" at the end still hits every time. So glad you guys finally watched this, its my absolute favorite movie of all time. The ensemble cast is excellent, especially Waltz for playing one of the all time great villains, its genuinely funny, has Tarantino's signature written all over it, all wrapped into an incredibly gripping story with excellent pacing. Absolutely adore this movie!

All the little side jokes you make around Jen ("Jewish... Love?", Etc etc) in each video only for Jen to say the iconic "Holden Thomas Hardman!" will always get me busting up laughing. I hope one day to have a relationship that's as great as you two! Keep up the fantastic work!! Love you guys!!

When Holden did his "Warriors come out and plaaay" impresion, you could basically feel Jen going" eh Holden what are you doing."

The weinstein joke was funny but the strangling (was Tarantinos hands) and feet thing is all Tarantino lol.

As a german I definetly noticed a bit of an accent from michael fassbender but I am more impressed by Holdens pronunciation. :-) Great Reaction 🔥

Love the Quentin Tarentino Movies Especially this one as it alters history (he is known for doing that…) and what could’ve happened during WW2 certainly one of Christoph Waltz (Hans) and Brad Pitt’s iconic roles, glad you guys got to watch this one! Did you know that Leonardo DiCaprio was originally cast as Hans…???

Fun fact, when Landa is strangling Frauleine Hammersmark, it’s actually Tarantino’s hands in the close up on her face. He didn’t think her reaction to being fake strangled was real enough so opted to legitimately strangle her himself to get the right reaction.

Holden, as the grandchild of Holocaust survivors and someone raised in a Jewish household, I really have to say.... Jewish women ALWAYS need to let you know they're right.

Nice. A "Holden Thomas Hardman!", "Cheese and Crackers!" and "Oh yeah, you Betcha!" all in one video. Triple laughs!

I thought Pulp Fiction was going to be next but okay. This will do just fine👍🏻

QT always gets props from me for having no hesitation in killing off characters (oftentimes suddenly and violently) I'm sure he knew would be beloved upon watching the first time. Also crazy how Christoph Waltz essentially plays bizarro versions of the character in this and Django so effortlessly. Those were among the easiest award winning performances I had ever seen.

Christopher Waltz showing range like nothing else. Going from the sweetest man from Django to the most dispicable in Inglorious bastards, i love this actor. Also Brad pitt's italian accent is about on par with Jess's english accent. :D

This movie is great when you understand other languages. I'm french so I understood around 2/3 of the dialogue and I feel nothing got lost in translation in terms of Tarantino's writing. I'm sure its the same for when they talk german but I felt like his style and the caracters translated well in french. Can't wait to see your reaction to Pulp Fiction, Jen better get used to the violence that comes with a Tarantino film 😂

Glad Jen is a fan of the "The Strain", such an underrated show in my opinion, we need a new season of it

Another Tarantino BANGER, this man never misses with the absolute gems that he makes. Also do you guys know that Hans Landa is played by the same guy as Dr Schultz? Edit: Hadn't gotten to the point in the video where Holden points it out yet

This is by far in a way my favourite film. Christoph Waltz’s performance is impeccable.

Another classic Tarantino movie; and Jen is starting to get the sense for what his movies are like. Tension, violence, raw and fictional takes on non-fictional historical events/time periods. Christoph Waltz is a fantastic actor, and I’m so glad he paired up with Tarantino to do the movies he did, b/c we got to see his range and acting at its best.

Jen: “Every time I hear him speak all I can hear is Austin Powers” Me: Grooooovy baby!

Unsure if this is still the case or how true it ever was, but at the time of release there was a lot of talk that this was the American film with the longest continuous segment with no English spoken. Like I said, unsure of how true it ever was or if it currently is but still really interesting to think about how there is a solid 20-30 minute segment of this film with zero English spoken

That opening scene is so genius

Christoph Waltz is a criminally underrated actor. hes been in so many incredible movies and tv shows. I am glad hes starting to get the attention thats hes needed for so many years. cant wait to see what he does next!!! also great video as always guys

You guys haven't stopped Clone Wars again have you? That's my favorite series!

What I like the most about this movie is the subversion of expectation when Landa asks to make a deal. There's subversion at a character level cause we wouldn't expect a character like him to do something like that at that moment but Tarantino also subverts our genre expectations. Up until when Landa made the deal this movie was a fun romp through WW2 where we followed a small unit of badassess and a traumatized girl, the thing is I fully expected all the heroes we were following to fail their respective goals at the end cause they all involved destroying Hitler and we all know that Hitler wasn't killed by a vengeful jewish girl or a guerrilla unit. It's almost a formula at this point that to make the modern audience understand the horrors of war you need to get them attached to specific characters and show how war affects those characters, I thought Tarantino was doing that up until when Landa asked to make a deal. Instead, Tarantino subverted our character and genre expectations in a single scene and the rest of the movie gives us the ultimate fantasy for WW2: Hitler gets killed with extreme prejudice. It's like every person who ever watched a WW2 movie and wished for things to be different get vindicated.

This is the movie that made Christoph Waltz famous in the US. He won an academy award for his role as Colonel Hans Landa. He is possibly one of the most fearsome villains ever.

Michael Fassbender actually does speak fluent German: he is half German (the Fassbender half) and spent some of his childhood living in Germany. His other half is Irish.

I just wanted to note that the falling in love bit that you wanted to happen with Shoshanna kinda did happen though---to me anyways---. Not quite falling in love, but after she shot him, it felt like to me that she was questioning/regretting it a little bit/showing compassion right BEFORE he turned around and shot her to retaliate

Fun fact, Landa wasn’t supposed to kill Von Hammersmark, Christoph Waltz just started to choke Diane Kruger to death and Tarantino kept rolling.

Such a great film, because it is just well written and clearly made with care. Just love it so much and glad y’all got to it!

Can’t wait for you guys to react to Shaun Of The Dead, Hot Fuzz & Snatch 👍

Holden! Do all of Quentin Tarantino‘s films!! They are all worth watching and reacting to!!! Fuck that list, watch that shit!!!! Holden!!!!!

Lmao Brad Pitt “Arrivederci” in a heavy Texan accent 😂😂😂

As a Tarantino fan, "Inglourious Basterds" is my favorite movie that he wrote and directed and the best revenge movie that he made since "Kill Bill", "Death Proof", and his next film after "Basterds", "Django Unchained". Kudos to Christoph Waltz on winning his first Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, as well as his second win in the same acting category for "Django Unchained". That is, indeed, a bingo.

This movie taught me that their are two ways to say goodbye in French. I watched a video about Christoph Waltz's performance and that was one thing he did during his performance is use the correct one. Letting her know that they will meet again. Which I always thought that and him drinking the milk in front of her was always such a fun subtle wink that he will see her again in the film and the as a character he will find her no matter what. She can't escape him like he's a force of nature. I love it.

The end of this movie and the end of The Hateful Eight have a similar dark (and darkly humorous) sense of justice about them.

There is a special place in my heart for Tarantino films. I hope you guys do end up watching both Kill Bill films!

3.4K Thumbs Up + Mine! 👍 Thanks for your fun, digital video recording! 🎬. 🖖😎✌️ Notes:. I haven't seen this movie since it was new in movie theaters. But as I recall, no horses were killed in this one, so be default, I prefer it more. 🤔 Edit: Oh yeah! "Jews Under the Floorboards"? That seems like a book title that, "JoJo Rabbit", would use! 😅

Mark 8:20. Greetings! 🖖. Hmm. Okay, Holden, hold up there! You're both, United States Citizens, as we know. You're a self-proclaimed member of the, Christian option of the three Abrahamic Faiths, though I'm not which denomination, if any, that you may've mentioned. I've heard you say before, that you have German ancestry in your family tree. But with your new wife there, you spoke of one of the other three, Abrahamic Faiths, Judaism, as if it were more a race, than a religion. Why is that? 🤔 You can convert religions, and change citizenship status, but not races. Though, by the way, if you ask, "Google", how many Human Races are there, she will inform you, that there is only the one! 🧐

Mark 14:53. Hmm. Favorite brand? 🤔. I think that mine might still be, "Lance Brand Cheese & Crackers", and, "Tom's Brand Cheese & Crackers". Though I may have tried other brands. 🤔

Django 9.5/10 Basterds 10/10 In Inglourious Basterds Waltz gives maybe the best performance of the Aughts.

All 5 actros except for Diane Kruger (Bridget von Hammersmark) and Michael Fassbender (Lieutenant Archie Hicox) are well known german actors. Diane Kruger is known for English and French speaking movies but is german born and a us citizen. About Michael Fassbender i dont think i have much to explane. He ist also German born but raised in Ireland. In the german version his voice is synchronized by his common german Syncho Voiceactor Norman Matt. I think thats because even that he speak fluently german his accent is to strong.

Mark 35:23. Oh! You two viewed this movie and, "Django Unchained", out of release date order though. Knowing that his movies share a "QT Universe", don't you wonder if the Austrian actor's two characters are related to each other? 🤔

Hi Guys, sorry for the comment unrelated to the reaction. I saw on Jen’s Instagram you guys are moving Clone Wars to be a Patreon Exclusive. I recognize that the views were lower and you guys need to make a living and respect you making the decision that’s best for you guys. I just wanted to ask and say a few things: I’m not too familiar with Patreon so I am a bit confused by this. My understanding is that the opportunity cost of uploading Clone Wars over other content was too high due to the lower views. If you are still reacting to Clone Wars and uploading it to Patreon, aren’t you just forgoing the RU-vid revenue if the work is still going into it? Again, I could be completely wrong as I’m not super familiar with Patreon and apologize if this feels like a rude and uneducated comment. Another thing is that I’ve found for reaction channels and videos, usually putting season and episode number in the title generates more views and clicks. Using the name of the arc could be contributing to the lacklustre views. As a Clone Wars fan (but not super diehard) there are a few arcs I can absolutely name by title but a lot I can’t. I think if you named the videos using season and episode there could be a correlation to some higher views. Again, you guys know much better than I so I could be wrong, but your other TV show reactions (The Boys, Moon Knight, Mandalorian, etc.) used the Season/Episode format. I do hope that some of the more popular Clone Wars arcs still get uploaded to the RU-vid.

I think Brad Pitt's character was the most useless character ever in a Tarantino film, mainly because I don't believe for a second that 8 Jewish men would agree to scalp 100 people. It goes against everything Jews believe about humanity, and because Soshana's story was covering the same beats in terms of the ending, the story would have been better if the movie had focused on her. So Brad Pitt and his glorified group of Jewish murderers added so little to this story that you didn't even notice when they were killed off. The idea that Brad Pitt's character would not get in trouble for scalping German soldiers defies everything we know about war crimes. I rate the movie an 8 and Waltz was so the sole reason to watch this movie. For every German soldier who would have gotten scalped, the Nazis would have scalped 100 Jewish children while they were alive as retribution. That's what would have happened in real life.

Mark 11:50. AKA, the latest host of the latest version of, "The Gong Show"! But instead of hosting as himself, he hosted as a fictional character! The game show attracted celebrities like, Jennifer Aniston, to be a talent judge! Those that knew who the host actually was, sometimes forgot, as his voice and make-up were that good! I didn't believe that it was him, because it didn't make sense to me, until now that is, that he would want to practice his acting skills, even as host of a talent game show. 🤔

🤷🏾‍♂️Tbh his role in Django is not that impressive especially when compared to something like this. That was just kind of a "Who else we gonna give it to?" Oscar so it's not surprising that Jen forgot he was that one

As a German I can tell you that Fassbender did a really good job, especially when you compare it to Pitt's Italian :D Although I have to say also that I personally would have suspected Fassbender was not a native speaker as well, if I had met him like this. Greetings from the Baltic Sea and keep up the good content :)

You really should check out Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill and The Hateful Eight, also great Movies from Tarantino!

The cream in the strudel scene was a test from Landa to see how Shoshanna would react to it, as cream is made from Fat and it would normally in those times be from Pork Fat.

Ya im gettin to the point where quentin isn't surprising anymore, he literally kills like every side character its getting quite annoying. He should let some live once in a while then maybe we actually be surprised. One of the girls should have lived i think. But classic quentin kills every single one and think hes being surprising and shocking lol. Great movie just annoyed how all the side actors always die.

During this time period strudel would have almost certainly been made with lard consisting of rendered pigs fat. Just another level of expert villainy of Lander.

I hope you guys watch The Hateful Eight. It's such a good movie.

AHHH yes! My fav movie of all time hope yall like it

Pitts 'Bonjourno' was like Jens English accents during The Boys watch alongs, so cringe it's hilarious 😂😂 👀

Heck yea!! Keep it up. We don't need that Cancel Culture here haha. Love in all the videos that "love" for Boston that Holden gives. Keeps it up.

dont know if someone already said this but fun fact the wrist guns used in the ending were real thing developed by the US navy. the gun would fire just like in the movie with impact of someone punching

I don't think he was racist in this film either, his character doesn't seem to have that dumb blind hatred to him. Plus he only asked about the black guy, is because the OTHER attendees would have an issue, not he himself. After all, he was responsible for the event security.

I speak French and German… his accent was REALLY British, so it sounds like a Brit speaking German, so its easy to believe why they were so suspicious of him

There's something brilliant about this movie that I don't think has pointed out in the comments section yet: The audience spends so much time waiting to see if Shosanna gets her revenge. She does and she doesn't at the same time. She traps all those Nazis and it leads to their death, but not Landa, her main target. That makes it satisfying and tragic at the same time. However, we have different subplots going on, so we would have to dissect the plot and wonder which events would've played out the same way without the interference of other characters.

This is a perfect film.

I can't wait for the Pulp Fiction reaction. That is one of my favourite films ever.

the strudel's cream would have used pig parts at the time of the war. Basically Landa was seeing if she was jewish based on whether or not she ate the cream.

“This is completely fictional?” All movies are. Especially the more they try to tell you otherwise. 😂

Jenn’s favorite scene being Brad Pitt with his bad accent. Jenn can sympathize with a bad accent

23:30 YEEEEEES!!!!! she said it..... Holden Thomas Hardman..... :)

Maaaaan you made clone wars patreon exclusive? that sucks, i really wanted to see those reactions now i can't, damn

Christoph Waltz is a bad guy in this movie. Great actor. Great in good guy rolls and bad guy rolls.

I like the dynamic between these two, at least as its filmed for this instance. One doesn't try too hard to control the other.

I am german so I can say that most german accents are very accurate but fassbenders accent really sounds off and not german at all and h*tlers accent is over the top as always

“ borderline anti-Semitic role play” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Fun fact: in Germany, Christoph Waltz dubs all his roles himself. So you can always hear his voice in the cinema, even if the film is actually in a different language.

My favorite movie of all time and it's funny cause I didn't like it at all the first time i saw it when it came out

I still feel bad for the German father who got capped by the chick in the bar :(

eli roth as the bear j, have made some great slasher movies himself, like the hostel series. he is really into gory stuff lol

Those weren't Waltz's hands strangling Krueger, whose were Tarantino's. To this day I could only watch that scene once. That first scene was so intense and every time you watch it you spot something different, like when Waltz grabbed the daughter's wrist. Boys In The Hood and American History X are, to me, important movies that everyone should (if they want) watch. Bonus: The Dirty Dozen!

Your wife’s reaction to people dying is so rich.

“Produced by Harvey Weinstein” - it actually was though… 😂

Can’t wait for once upon a Time in Hollywood! 🎥

One aspect that I don't see anyone mentioning about the opening scene is that when Landa is acting as if he will leave the man's home (and proceeds to call his soldiers) he says adieu, in a connotation that he wouldn't importunate the man anymore. But later he doesn't scream Adieu, he screams "au revoir Shoshanna" meaning he intends to see her again
