bridgesoscar

The Oscars are over, the final ballot counted and final award given. But we know the Oscar voting results you’re really looking forward to haven’t been announced yet: ours! That’s right, after receiving an impressive 100 submissions, we’re here to announce who’s taking home our top prize. And the mittens go to…

That Basterd! Christoph Waltz Wins Best Supporting Actor

Screen shot 2010-03-07 at 10.33.24 PM

The first big acting award was also the least surprising: Best Supporting Actor went to Inglourious Basterds‘ diabolical villain, Cnl. Hans Landa, as played by the transcendant Christoph Waltz.

Oy! It’s Oscar Time! Heeb’s 100 Best Jewy Movie Moments

The Bear Jew Takes A Moment

There’s nothing like the Oscars to bring out the movie buff in us all — and there’s nothing like these Oscars to make the Jews go crazy claiming them.

oscar

Many of you have probably spent the past few weeks since the last major televised award show (for the record, that would be the Grammys, held way back on January 31) suffering withdrawals…but fear not, the Academy Awards are coming Sunday to satisfy your insatiable hunger for those oh so meaningful thank you speeches. What should you expect when the action starts in the Kodak Theater? Read on to find out.

The Inglourious Oscar Nominations Are In! Avatar, Hurt Locker Lead

Picture 11

The 2010 Oscar nominations are being announced as we speak. We’ll update this post as we go. Full list is here and Jonathan Fuhrman’s smart reactions here. Best Picture:

Conan vs. Leno, Basterds Style

Art inspires art nowhere more than on the Internet, where mash-ups, reblogs, gifs, and all manner of secondary content are generated daily — and often hilariously — in the little nooks and crannies of the World Wide Web. This one, however, hits the sweet spot, fusing our recent obsession with the late-night wars with one [...]

Happy New Year From The Bear Jew

bearjewbloody The Aughts

Eli Roth has had quite a decade. From young director struggling to get his first feature in the can to hotshot horrormeister pushing to the edges of the genre to the bat-brandishing Bear Jew in Quentin Tarantino‘s epic Nazi revenge fantasy Inglourious Basterds, Roth has come a long way in a town that at times can be about as gentle as that dungeon in Hostel.

As we head into awards season — and what has already been a triumphant outing for the much-nominated BasterdsMediaite asked Eli to reflect on the last decade and the sweat, tears and, yes, blood it took to get here. Luckily for us, he was as forthcoming with his story as the Bear Jew is with his bat — and shared all the gory details. Here they are.

The Aughts (and The Aught-Not- Haves)

Donnie Donowitz & Aldo Raines my decade

Eli Roth remembers the last decade, and his trip from struggling film school grad through horror’s new hotshot through to Inglorious Basterds and the infamous Bear Jew. Here are all the gory details.

People’s Choice Awards: Who The People Chose

The People’s Choice Awards were this evening, and I gotta say, the People made some surprising choices. How is it that the People pick Twilight, Inglorious Basterds, The Big Bang Theory and Katherine Heigel in the same night? The People seem very inconsistent (but then again, the People know more than me because I, confused, [...]

5QQ: Eli Roth

I have never seen a movie by director Eli Roth. That’s not entirely true, I have seen clips from a movie by Eli Roth, since I saw (and loved) Inglorious Basterds which not only features Roth as the infamous skull-cracking Bear Jew, but also features his directorial handiwork on the film-within-a-film Nazi propaganda movie “Nation’s [...]

Eli Roth & Harvey Levin Have A Jew-Off For Chanukah (Really)

Connoisseurs of Saturday Night Live will remember the classic sketch featuring then-host Tom Hanks featuring fake game show “Jew/Not A Jew” (“Sponsored by Feldman’s Kosher Pickles. You don’t have to be Jewish to enjoy Feldman’s, but it helps.”) Connoisseurs of this blog will remember that I am slightly conflicted over horrormeister Eli Roth, who makes [...]

Leave Brangelina Alone! Star Slammed For Fake Jolie-Pitt Cover

Star Magazine running a misleading cover? Say it ain’t so! The jury is out on whether Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie truly had “the fight to end all fights,” but Star definitely ran a misleading cover story on their fight or alleged fight. Gossip Cop has the deets:

Inside The Twisted Young Mind of Eli Roth

I have never seen an Eli Roth movie. It’s not by accident — even just knowing that he’d pioneered the particularly gruesome horror sub-genre of “torture porn” would have been enough to keep me away, even if I hadn’t seen a Hostel 2 poster. (Ew. What is that?)

Everything I Know About Cars I Learned From Everything Except Cars

I am not a car person — have never been, never will be. I still don’t really even understand the “Cash For Clunkers” story. However! Turns out that, without knowing how to change the oil or why V-8 doesn’t just pertain to vegetable juice, I knew a whole lot about cars (even people who ain’t too clever/can learn to tighten a nut forever!).

Let’s Start a Conspiracy Theory: Tarantino’s Collusion With Town Hall Protesters

Earlier this week Rachel Sklar looked at who was behind the Obama-as-Hitler posters, but we’ve got another theory.

We joked about it during yesterday’s Office Hours – maybe all these posters and protesters are part of a secret viral marketing campaign for Quentin Tarantino‘s new film, “Inglourious Basterds“!
