Yet More Tarantino Casting: THIS IS INGLORIOUS BASTARDS!

Micheal Fassbender A.K.A. Stelios A.K.A. that guy who says "Then we will fight in the shade" in 300 has jumped upon the ever growing Quentin train for the movie Inglorious Bastards. The Movie Blog reports:
Teutonic thesp Michael Fassbender is in final negotiations to join the cast of Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglorious Bastards.”

Brad Pitt has signed on for the lead role as a Tennessee hillbilly who assembles a team of eight Jewish-American soldiers to take on the Nazis. Also on board are Mike Myers and Eli Roth. Tarantino is courting Nastassja Kinski, David Krumholtz and B.J. Novak.

Well, I think we have our first Nazi casting. Mr. Fassbender was in the glorious sword swinging actioner 300 and I consider his casting to be the best to date; save for Mr. Pitt.
Well, at least they're getting real Germans for the German parts. That's good news. It's also good news that we're not getting comedians! I'm all down for a comedic war movie (if this is the movie's intention), but just think how distracting it would be if you saw Jim Carry playing a Nazi. It's good that they got somebody who's not recognizable enough to be distracting as the bad guy. Good news! I agree with Doug when I say this is the best casting to date for the movie. (seriously, Austin Powers?) This movie better be good, considering how much I've been talking about it lately!
