Inglourious Basterds "The Bear Jew"

"We've got a German here who wants to die for his country. Oblige him." That has to be the most threatening line I've ever heard in a movie.

Wow, the fact that he didn't even flinch or show any signs of fear, the man was truly willing to die for his beliefs.

I love how there's a dramatic build up in the music to raise the emotion of seeing a brave soldier about to die for his country, but as soon as he swings the music stops and just becomes a man being beaten to death by a baseball bat. Its the reality of the situation.

You can see Eli's pain and suffering really come out in this scene. Reminds me of a Mexican proverb "They tried to bury us but they didn't know that we were seeds".

Always lose it when Pitt shouts “Donny” and you just hear a “yeah” from within the dark. So funny

ngl he definitely did earn that bravery badge

Donny raving about Teddy Williams will never fail to make me laugh. 😂

I think we can all agree we’re all that last dude who pointed out everything to save his precious life 🤣🤣🤣

How nonchalantly he responds with "Yea" when Aldo asks for him.

Love how Tarantino showed the Germans as brave, crafty, intelligent, intimidating instead of cartoonishly evil

Idk why but the way Eli Roth delivers the "Yeah?" at 1:36 always makes me giggle

Not gonna lie. This german officer kept his composure till the very end. Deserves his Bravery medal, the guy got balls of steel

When the officer says "bravery" while staying him right in the eye. That's pretty badass ngl.

I saw a prequel comic involving Donnie. Apparently Donnie was a bit of a hellion back home. An ancient Jewish woman caught him right before he was to leave for overseas. She looks at him, and the bat he was carrying. She looks him in the eye and asks him if he was up to trouble. He humbly replies "Yes maam." She ask him if he was going to take that bat with him. He says "yes maam." She tells him to give it to her, which he does. She then takes out a pen and signs her name to it, and tells him to send her love to that bastard Hitler.

"You get that from killing jews?" "Bravery." I love the way Donny nods in a sort of respecting way. He despises the German officer in almost every way possible, with the exception of one; that he's a brave man serving and willing to die for his country. Inglorious Basterds is by far one of my favorite movies, and every time I rewatch it I discover something new that I love about it. Phenomenal once-in-a-lifetime movie.

Fun fact about this scene. When it came time to shoot it, Eli Roth had already been on a strict workout regime to get himself looking tight and mean for this scene. He'd workout on set and pump himself up when it came time. But they filmed this scene several times. Each time they got it perfect, but Tarantino ordered another cut for a different day and each time, Roth got himself all pumped and jacked up to the point that when they did the last take, Roth may as well been the Hulk.

“Donnie” “Yeah?” “I got some German here who wants to die for country”

Yes, their methods are brutal, but ya gotta admit... that third guy got real helpful real fast.

My grandpa who served in Pattons army during WW2 would have loved this movie.

It would've been real interesting to see Adam Sandler as the bear Jew as tarantino intended
