Inglourious Basterds

They were spies pretending to be Germans. Europeans (or Germans at least) make a three with their thumb instead of their ring finger, thus giving away that they were not German

I saw this movie in an original language theater here in Germany (mostly we dub movies). Audience was about half German, half English-speaking foreigners. During that scene literally every German groaned, followed by confused whispered questions from foreigners. Very funny.

And it is for this reason, and for the full impact of this moment, that you watch star wars in the following order: IV, V, VI, rogue 1, I, II, III, solo, VII, VIII, IX. Don't get all pretensious on me and say you shouldn't watch VII-IX because they're just rehashes of IV-VI. They aren't. I actually like them. There, I said it. Also, I hated the ewoks. So if you think you want to skip an episode, I'd say please can they edit them out and edit out JarJar. Great.

Arrival. We see the flashbacks as if they’re a memory and then realise that Louise, through the alien language, is seeing future events. She knows how tragically it ends but still chooses it. Hugging Ian she says, “I forgot how good it felt to be held by you,” even though it’s… pic.twitter.com/i5IAfSUiKF
