For the past couple of months, we've been keeping track of all the conjecture and casting on Quentin Tarantino's suddenly swift-moving WWII project INGLORIOUS BASTARDS. We already know who most of the participants are... but how will QT's new movie actually look?

Here's a hint: Robert Richardson is serving as director of photography. As a point of reference, Richardson has been a go-to guy for cinematography on numerous movies from Martin Scorsese (CASINO, THE AVIATOR) and Oliver Stone (PLATOON, and pretty much everything else he's done), not to mention Tarantino's KILL BILL vol. 1 and 2.

Tarantino has previously stated his desire to make a WWII movie with a unique appearance, something that feels both current and like a period film. Richardson's work has covered just about every time frame in the past century, so he should be more than qualified.

Also, reader 'Michael D.' sent along this nifty teaser poster -- it's quite possibly fan-made, but it's a damn fine image.

Extra Tidbit: Tarantino acted as his own D.P. on DEATH PROOF.

True Romance = 2 words! I like this poster. If it's not legit, it should be! Make it a contest or something. Win the suite of QT movies in blu-ray or something. meh...

Oh and PoopyUnderwear, on the Death Proof poster it reads:
Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof.

But the poster looks very much fanmade to me. Although it's bitchin' nonetheless.

I see yet another 5 star movie for Quentin coming up.

Anyone notice that all of his movie's titles consist of 2 words? I noticed when Kill Bill was anounced and thought maybe it's just a coincidence but 2 movies later we still have 2 word titles:

Reservoir Dogs
Pulp Fiction
Jackie Brown
Kill Bill
Death Proof
Inglorious Bastards

I may be on to something. Or not.

I don't think he would ever go the possessive "Quentin Tarantino'S" route, he's always been more of an "A Quentin Tarantino Film" kinda guy.

Very hip to this news!

Nice teaser. Could probably serve as a teaser for Valkyrie also if the title was simply changed.

Actually, that's a decent fan poster
I seriously can't wait until this puppy is filmed and pending a release. Screw all Tarantino haters, I'm still a fan.
