Basterd sighting!!

Just woke up from a six-hour nap, in the wake of a great, yet long, day yesterday. Was in the bridal party of one fun-ass wedding/reception. Still a bit tired from the whole thing, so not in the mood to reflect on the event just yet....

....but for now, I just stumbled across something that put a smile on the mug. A first look shot of Brad Pitt in his Inglourious Basterds get-up.[Basterds, with an "e," is how Tarantino himself has it spelled; that's not a typo or anything....same goes for the Inglourious spelling] That's the new Quentin Tarantino WWII film that just began shooting, and after reading its script, I'm confident in saying that it'll be fucking insanity once its released. Can't wait.

Nothing super-revealing about this pic, other than the fact that it shows Inglourious Basterds has FINALLY began shooting. Is a reality. No long just speculation or jibber-jab from Tarantino.

Pic first spotted at JoBlo.com, which grabbed it from Tarantino.info:

Here's a bit of dialogue from the script, setting up Pitt's character, Lt. Aldo Raine, a good ol' country boy who heads a crew of Nazi hunters and killers:
"I sure as hell, didn't come down from the goddamn Smoky Mountains, cross five thousand miles of water, fight my way through half Sicily, and then jump out of a fuckin air-o-plane, to teach the Nazi’s lessons in humanity."

Bring it on.
