Remember Rob Zombie's Grindhouse trailer for Werewolf Women Of The S.S., which played in between Planet Terror and Death Proof? And all the talk of a potential full length feature? Well... how 'bout a comic book?

From Rob Zombie's My Space blog today: "Werewolf Women of the SS is back! This time it's back as a comic book series! The wacky exploits of Commandant Hess, Lt. Boorman, Von Strasser Eva and Gretchen Krupp, Fu Manchu and even Hiltler will be coming you way. Everything you ever wanted to know about Project Pure Wolf but were afraid to ask!"

There is something about all this that doesn't wash with me - actually, none of it seems to - but I'll lay it out for you the way I heard it: Nikki Finke's Deadline Hollywood reports that Quentin Tarantino is shopping his script for Inglorious Bastards to four of the big studios - Universal, Warner, Paramount, and Sony. It is also being reported that Tarantino wants Brad Pitt to star. From various sources, there is talk that Bastards will begin shooting in October will a 2009 Cannes premiere.

I'm calling bullshit.

Here's why: Three weeks ago, Tarantino was talking about how the script was getting so massive it would be two films. Now, suddenly, that project is just ready to go? It'll be shooting in three months, finished in nine? If there's one thing Quentin Tarantino has not been over the past 15 years, it's prolific. It takes him forever to write,

It's hard to say whether it's been the stifling heat or former Warner Independent chief Mark Gill's much-talked about "the sky really is falling" speech (published in full at indieWire here) that gave attendees of this year's Los Angeles Film Festival a sense of their own mortality. Then again, it could just be the way in which the effects of life-altering events have been examined in several of the festival's films, particularly in the narrative section.

When Gill, now heading up the indie shingle The Film Department, spoke at the adjoining film financing conference on the first Saturday of the festival, he decried the indie film marketplace as standing on the brink of oblivion, saying, "if you decide to make a movie budgeted under $10 million on your own tomorrow, you have a 99.9% chance of failure." On that basis, it's possible that "Winged Creatures," an ensemble drama

I interviewed Quentin Tarantino once, three days after Kill Bill Vol. 1 was released. He was very excited, naturally, because the film debuted very well. We talked about a few things (for instance, he'd pick karaoke over Carrie Fisher, which I thought was surprising), and among the topics of discussion lo those many years ago was his war movie, Inglorious Bastards.

Qt said at that time that it would be his next film (Kill Bill Vol. 2 was already filmed, because they were originally one mammoth production, later cut in two). Well, his next film, as it turned out, was the extremely bad Death Proof, a film apologists tried to defend with shots like, "It'll become a classic on DVD" and "It suffers because it's at the end of a double feature."

Well, the DVD has been out for a while and I'm not sure it's become more legendary and
