Inglorius Basterds!

Oh. My. God. I loved that movie. Fucking insane but so good...really got me thinking about a few things philosophically afterwards about what war can make humans into and how we all maybe have that hidden darkness within us that can come out if we allow it to or if enough horrible things happen to us.

Are we all just produts of our society and upbringing?
I found myself cheering on as they were killing nazis and being all upset if a jew was killed. I mean..philosophically thinking its just a bit absurd how I can be cheering a anyone is killed?! And its sick how society/culutre/upbringing/politics/propaganda can kind of make us think and do and change our beliefs...I could go on about this and about how it really does make a big difference with the beliefs that are pushed upon us (I mean just looking at the extremely different propaganda they had in Cuba made me realize that we live with propaganda every day in the states too, were just so used to it that we dont think about it or notice it anymore).

Oh well. As I said. I could go on forever..but if youre thinking of seeing a movie soon go see inglorious basterds..it actually manages to be funny and captivating at the same time as it is philosophical and heartwrenching...but most of all its kind of sick and cruel..but in some twisted good way :)

Decide for yourself if you want to see it:
