* [[Actor Allusion]]:
* [[Brad Pitt]] also played a character that collected German scalps in the 1994 film ''[[Legends of the Fall]]''.▼
** This isn't the first movie where [[Brad Pitt]] [[Fight Club (film)|fights in a basement]].
** [[Eli Roth]] performs some of the more gruesome killings in the film. Coincidence? And this isn't the first time he's played a "bear"--in [[Grindhouse|Death Proof]], his character was named "Dov," which means "bear" in Hebrew.
▲** [[Brad Pitt]] also played a character that collected German scalps in the 1994 film ''[[Legends of the Fall]]''.
* [[The Danza]]: Omar Doom as Pfc. Omar Ulmer.
* [[Deleted Scene]]: Cloris Leachman and [[Maggie Cheung]] ended up being cut from the film.
* [[Fake Brit]]: [[Michael Fassbender]] who plays Lt. Archie Hicox, the [[Quintessential British Gentleman]], lives in London but is in fact half-Irish, half-German. Mike Myers (Canadian) plays another quintessential Brit, General Fenech. And finally, Rod Taylor, who plays Prime Minister Winston Churchill, is Australian. Tarantino talked Rod Taylor out of retirement to play Churchill, even though Taylor suggested Albert Finney (who had played Churchill to great acclaim in ''The Gathering Storm'' (2002)).
* [[Fake Nationality]]: Christian Berkel, who plays a French bartender, is actually German.
* [[Fatal Method Acting]]: A near miss. During the climactic scene, the fire raging through the cinema was completely real. Unfortunately, it began to get out of hand, and the two actors in the scene were only wearing a jelly to protect their skin; the rest of the crew had fire suits. Ten seconds after Quentin Tarantino called 'cut' and everyone rushed off, the platform the actors had been standing on collapsed. The heat was so intense (2000 degrees Fahrenheit) one of them passed out afterwards.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: So many to pick from!
** Hey, it's [[The Office|Ryan the temp]] killing Nazis...
Line 6 ⟶ 14:
** The scene with the English general. Wait, why is [[Austin Powers]] talking?
** Rod Taylor is [[Winston Churchill]].
** [[
** Hey, it's the chick from ''[[National Treasure]]''!
** The Bear Jew...is the king of <s> horror</s> [[Gorn]] [[Eli Roth|himself]]!
** When did [[
** Wait a second- Inspector? Where have you left Rex?!
** [[Kill Bill|Reverend Harmony]] leads the American soldiers in ''[[Show Within a Show|Stolz der Nation]]''.

** [[Traumschiff Surprise|Rock Fertig-Aus]] went back in time in order to kill some Nazis.
** Good to see that [[Hex|Azazeal]] is still as suave as ever.
** It would appear that a certain [[Valkyrie (
** It should come as no surprise that [[X-Men (
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: The Narrator is [[Samuel L. Jackson]] and the Basterds' Commanding Officer is [[Harvey Keitel]]. Both are Tarantino regulars. In the Japanese dub we have [[Cowboy Bebop|Spike Spiegel]] as Aldo, Rangiku Matsumoto from ''[[
* [[Playing Against Type]]: Sam Levine is better known for his nerdy [[Nice Guy]] roles in series like ''[[Freaks and Geeks]]'' and ''[[Undeclared]]''.
* [[Promoted Fanboy]]: Mike Myers was reportedly a Tarantino fan, which got him his cameo in Chapter 4 "Operation Kino".
* [[Similarly Named Works]]: The "Inglourious Basterds" misspelling was likely to avoid a lawsuit by the copyright holders of the 1978 film "The Inglorious Bast'''a'''rds", which was also a World War II film. Though it might also be a reflection on Raine's illiteracy.
* [[Star-Making Role]]: This is the film that introduced Christoph Waltz to American audiences.
* [[Throw It In]]: The giant swastika falling down in the final scene is real, it was a mistake that happened ''on the set''.
* [[What Could Have Been]]:
** [[Adam Sandler]], [[Simon Pegg]] and [[Leonardo
