Cannes report from Deadline.com:

And for Christmas Day Weinstein is promising Tarantino’s provocative western starring Jamie Foxx as an ex-slave out for revenge and Oscar winner Christoph Waltz as a diabolical travelling dentist who has a giant tooth atop his covered wagon. Leonardo DiCaprio, Don Johnson, Kerry Washington and Samuel L. Jackson co-star.

...a generous never-before-seen 10 minutes was unveiled from Django and judging from the unconventional footage and politically incorrect dialogue it should prove to be a wild and typically-Quentin ride for the Weinsteins, as is usually the case with Tarantino. (Weinstein) said Django still is in production for another month and may be adding a couple of “surprise” co-stars. At one time Sacha Baron Cohen was slated to participate but had to drop out and Kurt Russell’s schedule also became problematic for the production as he was committed elsewhere and they fell behind.

LOL at Waltz tooth wagon.

so Waltz is the villain...?

still hoping for some sort of on-screen DiCapritation

Nah, just sounds like he knows how to extract revenge in the tradition of the master:

WAT

There's something perfectly trashy spaghetti western about that.

so Waltz is the villain...?

DiCaprio is the villain, Waltz is one of the people Foxx teams up with, from what I understand.

"diabolical" is stupid and totally misleading in that deadline.com story

"politically incorrect dialogue"

Can't wait for the big "Turkey in the straw is clearly a song about fucking a cripple" monologue.

i watched "mandingo" (the 1975 film) a few weeks back. what an amazing, totally unaccountable film.

"Killing white folks and getting paid for it. What's not to like?"

LEO

looks a lot like Basterds. not that that's a bad thing.

Kurt Russell!!

Yay synopsis:

Set in the South two years before the Civil War, DJANGO UNCHAINED stars Academy Award®-winner Jamie Foxx as Django, a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz). Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive.

Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South’s most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago.

Django and Schultz’s search ultimately leads them to Calvin Candie (Academy Award®-nominee Leonardo DiCaprio), the proprietor of “Candyland,” an infamous plantation where slaves are groomed by trainer Ace Woody (Kurt Russell) to battle each other for sport. Exploring the compound under false pretenses, Django and Schultz arouse the suspicion of Stephen (Academy Award®-nominee Samuel L. Jackson), Candie’s trusted house slave. Their moves are marked, and a treacherous organization closes in on them. If Django and Schultz are to escape with Broomhilda, they must choose between independence and solidarity, between sacrifice and survival...

trailer's promising, though not exactly knocking my socks off. maybe that's a good thing. i like these socks.

i am dreading every single word that is going to be written about this

every shot of leo should begin w/a crash zoom

Okay I roffled at the last line of that.

So I'm already wondering what his next film will be and I'm figuring it has to be sf?

Eric Rohmer-style romance he promised long ago (script will read well in crayon)

OF COURSE it has a remixed version of The Payback

The blood spraying across the cotton was a nice image taken by itself.

Nice to spot MC Gainey, too bad he bites it. Also, Walton Goggins is in this somewhere?

I thought that was Clancy Brown who Waltz shoots near the beginning, but apparently it's James Remar. Also, both James Remar and James Russo are apparently in this.

Think that's Franco Nero at the bar with Django (II).

Highly anticipating Samuel Jackson's haircut (bald on top, puffy white on sides?).

OF COURSE it has a remixed version of The Payback

^^^ real talking

...REVENGE!

Ta-Nehisi Coates says No thanks, not for me.

nothing like judging a movie by its trailer

isn't that what a trailer is for?

no?

I will see the shit out of this movie, but the trailer itself doesn't really do anything for me.

by way of comparison, the trailer for Children of Men was HORRIBLE, so much so that it made me not want to go anywhere near the film - and yet when I did eventually see it I thought it was one of the two best sci-fi films of the last 20 years

The other was Species.

close but no Short Circuit

yeah the trailer for this is surprisingly generic, but i'm pretty sure the inglourious basterds trailer (or several of 'em) was nothing special either. in any event, people who write think pieces about movies based around their trailers are just--

isn't that what a trailer is for?

no?

more yes than no. it is meant to elicit a belief that the film is worth paying to see all of it, which is def a preliminary judgment of the film.
