sure, everyone knows that hollywood is known to take "poetic license" when needed. however, the idea of basing a movie on "revisionist history" begins the slow process of reprogramming the public to believe that historical events happened according to the screen writers ideologies and philosophies. Inglorious Bastards may be a "spaghetti western" style comedy, but the movie exhibits the ability to slowly reprogram some (notice I said SOME, not ALL) viewers to think a new "reality". especially amongst those viewers who are vulnerable to the power of suggestion. and isn't the power of suggestion and the promotion of change and National Socialism that brought Hitler to power in the first place?

the movie, "JFK" by Oliver Stone is a good example of revisionist history thinking. anyone who has read the facts concerning the JFK assassination knew from the start the movie was off on many areas. HOWEVER, a recent poll of the public shows that the MAJORITY of the public believes that the movie "JFK" purports historical FACTS.
