Me and Husband were watching “Inglorious Basterds” in Blu-ray — yes, bastards with “e”. Hey, don’t blame the messenger, man. I think Tarantino was trying to add a French flair to the word. Basteeerds. You could totally read a French accent in it.
No? Try again.
Right?
You see, hubby is a big Quentin Tarantino fan. There’s a weird irony in this, because husband is German, and “Inglorious Basterds” is all about killing Germans in gruesome ways.
When confronted about this simple truth, husband claimed that, “The insides of a human being have no nationality.”
Let that sink in for a moment.
Anyway, as we watched the movie, he turned to me out of nowhere and said, “I really hate Diane Krueger in this role. Her character is supposed to be this big movie diva, but she just doesn’t deliver.”
To which I replied, “I agree with you, dear husband.”
I know, I’m such an ass-kisser.
“Thanks babe,” he continued. “Seriously, you’d make a waaaaay better diva then her.”
Emphasis on the “waaaaaay better diva” part, if you please.
Which brings us to today’s question:
Much obliged.
You should be “flaterd”. Say it with a French accent too. 🙂
Aha! How much did my husband pay you?
This one was on the house!
Damn right I’m a diva! Now be a dear and go fetch me another glass of wine. Thanks in advance. 😉
LOL no way, I’ll ask Hubs to do it while we wait with our Divaness on the couch.
That would be my instant response when if my hubs were to tell me I would play a superior Diva to that on the television.
aaaaah hahaha should’ve done that. Damn -_-
That movie is great, you can’t go wrong with Tarantino! After your hubby made that comment you should have got up fixed him his favorite drink and made him his favorite dessert!
But then the whole premise that I’m a total diva would go down the toilet *mwahahaha* <– that was my evil laugh
I personally adore that movie, and watch it repeatedly. It is one of the only trinkets I’ve kept from my first relationship. Haha.
I expected more from Diane’s character too, although I didn’t find her too irritating or disappointing. I was expecting more from Brad Pitt in this movie.
I’d like to hear your evil laugh compared with hers. I’m sure your husband is fully familiar with it. 🙂
You know, very good point about Brad Pitt. And yeah, my evil laugh is pretty scary. Dont mean to brag but, yeah it rocks lol
Um, I’m sorry, any poll with the option of cookeh and there is just no OTHER choice. Especially with the cookie monster being one of my alter egos, just saying. Choosing anything else would just be wrong. Very, very wrong.
Cokeeeeeh!
That is hysterical. Husbands. Sigh. They are so not smooth!
You make meeee laugh… more stress on the me please.. 🙂
I would say flattered, but I voted for cookie. It’s lunch here and I’m hungry, so I was unduly influenced. BTW, I love Tarantino, especially the early stuff.
I think most people voted for cookie anyway hehe Thanks for voting!
Be the best Diva ever! then remind him that he said that, if he starts to complain about your Divine behaviour 🙂
Totes!
My film teacher once told my class that Tarantino purposely misspelt it because when people search for “Inglorious Basterds” his movie would be the first to come up! Unfortunately it isn’t true, but would have been so cool if it was! Great movie and great blog post 😀
Yeah, Tarantino is not that smart lol
