Get Ready for August:
And now for August: To prepare you for one of the most discussed and highly controversial upcoming summer movies-- Quentin Tarantino's World War II Epic, Inglorious Basterds-- we're announcing our new poll which asks you to select the best directorial achievement QT has created so far on film.
Your mind may immediately leap to one movie with the initials of P.F. but seriously guys, it's harder than you think when you go back and review the rest. Furthermore, to keep it more succinct than July's poll, I'm only going with his work as a filmmaker-- not a screenwriter, guest director, or co-director so True Romance, Death Proof and Sin City etc. are all out and I do apologize for that. However, to this end, all complaints can be filed with Brad Pitt's character c/o Inglorious Basterds. Just kidding! Enjoy and click here to vote as well as e-mail the poll, embed it on your site and get as many fans involved as possible. :)
Additionally, if you haven't checked the site in awhile, followed the Twitter updates or feeds-- we're currently running TWO contests for readers in the month of August. Check 'em out.
Oh yes, and whether you're doing any back to school shopping, stocking up on upcoming discs and Blu-rays (you can pre-order Star Trek already!) via Film Intuition's advertisers, let 'em know you're a fan of theirs as well as help keep the site running by clicking directly off our website to shop at some of the most popular destinations on the web. Thanks.
