OOC - ESCAPE: event
Hello everyone, I’m just making this post for people to catch up.
Roth Kruger has escaped Hell, having used a stolen Asmodean Crystal to crossover into the living realm. Roth is now back in New York City.
Apart of his plan also involves faking his death. Or at least, to create doubt of his survival on Extermination Day. He accomplished this by destroying his treasured taxi cab.
However, Roth’s presence in New York is already known. A government agency, known informally as “The Ladder” knows about his crossover. Soon enough, they will have their “partners” in DHORKS to converge and apprehend Roth.
This begins the arc where Roth is experimented on by The Ladder. As well, some troubling revelations about Roth’s captors. Thankfully, Roth will be rescued after his survival is discovered. Unfortunately, this means returning to Hell. To face judgement for committing treason against Hell.
OH! Also I will be writing about how Roth acquired the Asmodean crystal. So stay tuned.

“Sheesh! D’ya gotta duck when y’climb int’ that yellow box machine?” He’s… probably talking about the taxi the man drives. The concept of cars is still brand new to him!

{{ If only Roth's relationship was like that with The Yellow King. }}

Another pic for @croik somewhat set in the Entangled series universe. I’ve always really loved the King in Yellow as a character fromt eh Lovecraft mythos, but Malevolent, and these fics in particular elevated him to blorbo status.

Inglourious Basterds (2009)
Tumblr media
Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds will either unleash a deluge of questions about morals and ethics (probably intentionally) or allow you to revel in trashy revenge fantasies while sitting through a story that’s full of finely-written dialogue, unpredictable turns and excellent performances. I strongly suspect the film isn't supposed to be scrutinized, that its only purpose is to be a “leave your brain at the door and enjoy the carnage” kind of film but the skill involved in its creation compels you to look deeper. There are many great scenes and some spectacular performances within the picture, which makes it a surprise that ultimately, the final product is less than the sum of its parts.
In 1944, Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) assembles a paramilitary unit designed to spread terror among Nazi troops. The Basterds are to murder, disfigure and torture any enemy soldiers they find but must also let some live to grow their reputation. A year later, the Basterds are recruited to infiltrate a film premiere in Nazi-occupied France where several high-ranking German officers will be attending. The theater is owned by Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent), a Jewish woman living in Paris under a fake name. She seeks revenge against the same Nazis the Basterds are targeting, particularly SS-Standartenführer Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz).
Inglourious Basterds is two movies that briefly converge but are otherwise independent of each other. The problem is that these two stories are nearly opposites tonally. The Basterds’ story is a violent, comedic cartoon. Shosanna’s story contains real drama. Both are revenge fantasies but of a completely different kind.
It’s hard to tell what message we’re supposed to draw from the film. An opening speech by Raine reminds us that despite the way they act and look, every German soldier is not a person. They are simply pieces of Hitler’s grand machine. The more violent, and brutal their death the better. We never see concentration camps. They are never even mentioned. The Third Reich’s armies are shown killing Jews but only via machine guns. The murders they commit are no more brutal than those committed by the Basterds but we’re not supposed to see the Jewish-American soldiers as bad - even though they torture and mutilate people who beg for their lives - because the people they are killing are “not people”. It’s difficult to wrap your head around the idea because the performances are so good, and the violence so impactful.
This is the kind of film that could’ve used a couple of baddies with eyepatches and mechanical legs rather than the excellent lookalikes of Sylvester Groth (Joseph Goebbels), Adolf Hitler (Martin Wuttke) and Emil Jannings (Hilmar Eichhorn). The message seems to be that compassion and mercy have no place in the world and that they’re likely to get you killed. Should the excuse of “I was just following orders” exempt you from punishment? Tarantino says “Maybe - unless you're a Nazi". At the very least, you must admire him for committing fully to his message.
Whether or not you're turned off by the story’s brutality, there’s no denying what Inglourious Basterds does well. There are so many good scenes the package is worth seeing even if it will offend and appall you. Tarantino holds the tension and then slowly stretches it until you can practically smell the perspiration dominating the room. The dialogue is so good you can’t wait to hear what’s next and you wouldn’t miss a word for all the stolen Nazi gold in the world. The plot’s completely unpredictable and the performances are incredible. Christoph Waltz, in particular, blows you away. You should hate his character. He’s a terrible human being but he’s so smooth the atrocities he commits seem to evaporate from your memory the second he opens his mouth.
Inglourious Basterds is not a classy story but it’s made with such expertise that the mud it’s wading through looks like it came from the spa. It’s deeply knowledgeable about film history and if you are as well, you should see it. Every glimpse we get of Stolz der Nation (Nation's Pride) is perfect to a tee. Would it have been a better film if it had been separated into two? Unfortunately, I believe so. With the conclusion the way it is, the more interesting story - that of Shoshanna - is made redundant, even pointless by the actions of the Basterds. The upside is that you have no clue where it's headed until you get there.
Although I think Inglourious Basterds is a one-and-done for me, I'd be curious to see how a second viewing might go. It really is one of those movies that forces you to react strongly toward it. (May 1, 2020)

{ Out of nowhere, Roth appears. He’s dressed as The Easter Bunny, bearing gifts for Easter Day. These gifts bring cheap chocolate and drugs. He holds it out, showing it to Carlos. }
“Happy Easter! Don’t tell Lucifer I celebrate it.”
"Dude, what the fuck," Carlos said flatly, looking the other demon up and down. "There's not... drugs in the candy is there? There's children in Hell, you know."
Who the hell celebrated Easter in Hell? Not Carlos, certainly.
