In 2005, Quentin Tarantino told MTV News that we'd have to wait a full decade until he revisited "Kill Bill" territory and brought Uma Thurman's Bride back for a third film in the series. "Uma's got to get 10 years older, the little girl has to grow up and everything," he explained.

And whaddya know, before this decade has closed out, the director has started to hint that we might actually see another "Bill" within that time frame. "The Bride will fight again!" he told an Italian TV station.

We just spoke with Thurman, who is in town promoting her upcoming comedy, "Motherhood," and we asked the actress if she'd spoken with Tarantino about the new movie. Read more...

Quentin Tarantino isn't quite finished with Beatrix Kiddo (Uma Thurman) -- "Kill Bill"'s vengeful Bride -- just yet, not if an interview he did on Italian TV is to be believed. In the director's own words: "The Bride will fight again!" There's a catch though: it's not happening anytime soon.

"I gotta wait a couple years because I wanted 10 years to pass," he said, as reported by The Playlist. Tarantino offers two reasons for the 10 year wait, which would see the next "Kill Bill" releasing no earlier than 2014. "One: I think Uma [Thurman] and I needed a 10 year break cause the first one was so hard. And second: I really love the character. And I think she deserves a 10 year release of no fighting and being with her [daughter]." Read more...

I'm pleased to report that things are back to status quo. Last week's top stories were relatively free of "Twilight" news but we're back on track this week thanks to the barrage of images and news that emerged. We'll get to that in a minute though. First let's wrap up the weekly box office poll.

There was a big voter turnout this week, though nearly all of your votes went to one of the two horror releases: "Halloween II" and "The Final Destination." Rob Zombie's flick edged out "Destination," with 60% of the vote compared to the other's 38%. The remaining 2% is spread across the rest of the choices, with no clear leader among them. Now that that's out of the way, let's see what your clicks favored... Read more...

"Inglourious Basterds" opens this week with one of the most intentionally Jewish casts of action heroes that any writer or director has ever assembled. Quentin Tarantino's ultra-violent tale sets itself historically during a time that many films have tackled, showcasing the tales of real-life heroes in Jewish history like Oscar Schindler in "Schindler's List" and Anne Frank in "The Diary of Anne Frank." I'm talking of course about World War II.

Tarantino's trademark penchant for extreme black humor and overshooting reality, meanwhile, places his ambitions somewhere between those more somber films and other over-the-top performances, like Adam Goldberg in the Comedy Central TV movie "The Hebrew Hammer." Eli Roth and his fellow Basterds will join a long history of Jewish action heroes in film, though. Here are five of the most famous figures who have earned that distinction. Read more...

In the below Vintage Vid, former MTV personality Chris Connelly talks to Brad Pitt in October '94, a month before the world got to see his standout performance in director Neil Jordan's "Interview with the Vampire." Pitt says here that he tries not to think about the future that lies before him. Little does he know, it's a future that includes an "Ocean's" trilogy, superstardom and Angelina Jolie.

You can of course check out Pitt this weekend, starring in Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" for an up-close look at exactly where the star's career has gone. In short... UP!

This weekend, Quentin Tarantino sends Lt. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) and his squad of "Inglourious Basterds" behind enemy lines to inflict brutal punishment on the Nazis. The group is particularly well-suited to this task, as the lot of them are Jewish Americans who have a bone to pick with the "Final Solution"-espousing Third Reich.

Of course, as anyone with even cursory knowledge of the Bible knows, World War II was far from the first time that Jews have been oppressed in large numbers. In the story of Exodus, Moses led the Hebrews out of their life of slavery in Egypt. That was only after he heralded the coming of the ten plagues that God would visit upon the Egyptians if the Pharaoh did not let Moses' people go. In the Cecil B. Demille-directed classic, "The Ten Commandments," Charlton Heston played the bearded savior. He and the Pharaoh -- played by Yul Brenner -- are both the focus in today's eBay Prop-Watch.

This is it folks. Today is the last day of our "favorite Quentin Tarantino character" poll. You spoken loud and clear with your clicks. And unless today brings some massive upset, "Pulp Fiction"'s Jules Winnfield -- and the memorable Sam Jackson performance responsible for him -- is the big winner with (as of now) 44% of your votes. "Kill Bill"'s The Bride (Uma Thurman) is the closest competitor, at 21%. And my pick? Poor Max Cherry (Robert Forster), from "Jackie Brown"? The big loser, at 2%. All this tells me is that "Brown" really is QT's most underrated effort.

In the below video, the director and "Inglourious Basterds" star Brad Pitt describe audience reactions to what is ultimately a funny World War II movie. They focus specifically on a German audience screening, and the crowd's at-first tentative response to the humor.

Hit the jump for your last chance to give Max Cherry his due in the poll! Read more...

I'm not terribly surprised to be informing you that Samuel L. Jackson's "Pulp Fiction" character Jules Winnfield currently has the lead in the "favorite Quentin Tarantino character" poll, with almost 50% of your votes. Come on, Max Cherry fans! I know you're out there! Show some love for the "Jackie Brown" bail bondsman!

In the below video, "Inglourious Basterds" star Brad Pitt talks about the director's characters, how they have fully developed back stories. That's part of the reason they all tend to be so unforgettable; even if you never learn the full background, it's always there to inform the actor's performance, creating a more nuanced, more believable portrayal.

Hit the jump for the poll, and remember: if you don't agree with the picks, share your thoughts in the comments section or upload your video response to Your MTV (make sure to tag it "favorite Tarantino character"). Read more...

To hear Brad Pitt say it, his Aldo Raine character in Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" was right there on the page. He didn't have to interpret or ad lib-- he just played the character as Tarantino wrote him, and that was that. The director doesn't necessarily agree with that statement, as you can see in the video below. Whether or not he wants to admit it though, Tarantino is a master craftsman when it comes to characters.

That's why I'm running a poll this week, to determine who you think takes top honors among Tarantino's many colorful characters. My pick is Max Cherry, from "Jackie Brown." Two reasons for that. One: "Jackie Brown" is my favorite of the director's flicks. Two: Robert Forster is badass. You don't want to mess with that guy. Who's your favorite? Cast your vote after the jump. Don't agree with our selections? Then enter your pick as a write-in in the comments section or record your thoughts on video and share them with us at Your MTV (make sure to tag it "favorite Tarantino character"). Read more...

I sure do love "Jackie Brown." It may very well be my favorite Quentin Tarantino flick. It easily surpasses "Reservoir Dogs" and "Pulp Fiction" for me. The "Kill Bill" duology has some incredible moments, but can it really top "Jackie Brown" in my personal rankings? No, I don't think it can. That leaves "Inglourious Basterds," but I haven't seen that yet. So "Jackie" reigns supreme. For now.

Today's eBay Prop-Watch item comes from that movie, and it's not particularly expensive. It also doesn't include a certificate of authenticity (or none is mentioned), though the auction's creator, an eBay Power Seller, does have a number of other prop auctions -- with COAs -- listed in his/her profile. Buy at your own risk of course, but this COA-less auction seems more trustworthy than most. And really, do any of you care? It's a cool prop from "Jackie Brown," and that's all you need to know for gawking purposes. Read more...
