>Hehe well mr Fassbender, now that you have ordered 3 glasses with the wrong sign, I know for sure you're not german, and I'm going to kill you! >Bitch wait...what? You just determined i'm not a german because I did a 3 sign with the "wrong fingers"? >y-yeah that's n-not how we do it in germa.. >bitch hol' up I'm not done talking...what the fuck? You do fucking know that Germany is literally the result of like 4 or 5 different countries and kingdoms that decided to band together, right? Kingdoms with completely different cultures, bitch, I'm guessing you also think they celebrate Oktoberfest in Köln, don't you? >N-no I mea-- >-shut up senpai, Are you from Berlin? >Brandenbu- >Brandenburg, yeah figured, look you fucking twat, I really fucking hope you either change your mindset or that you never step a fucking foot in Bavaria or Baden-Württemberg, because you'd fucking start an ethnic cleansing over there as soon as you start hearing someone speak in Swabian because you'd say "OH WHOOPS, YOU AINT SPEAKING IN HOCHDEUTSCH, THAT MUST MEAN YOU'RE NOT A GERMAN!", bitch not 10 minutes ago you were completely clueless as to where my home village was located, and you accepted my accent because you said "yeah you know...Germany is a pretty big country, and I don't know it all", so how the fuck are you now saying that "lmao dude, if you don't make a 3 sign with these fingers, you're absolutely not german?...know what? Fuck out of here white boi, right fucking now, go back to the fucking SS headquarters and don't bother me anymore, gotta fuck this bitch in less than 2 hours before my wife notices I'm missing, so you best don't get in the way of me and my sex life or I'll turn your dick into a fucking sliced currywurst, you hear me?
This is exactly why I love Tarantino, he's always super concerned about script integrity

Didn't you see Argo? They teach spy hunters even small things like the difference in Canadian vs American accent. I'm sure in WW2 they did the same, and the number thing is a huge indicator when they were ALREADY suspicious.
Levi Hughes
this
he was a fucking gestapo major
Oliver Long
It wasn't just the numbers thing. That was only the tipping point. He was already suspicious of them, hence his forcing his company on them. The numbers thing was just a major enough slip up for him to be confident enough to make his move.
Jaxon Fisher
That was actually pretty good OP.
Julian Mitchell
Didn't you read the post? The man had already accepted that Fassbender was German and was going to leave them alone until Fassy did the hand thing.
It made absolutely 0 fucking sense, if the guy didn't even know the name of the town, how the fuck is he going to know if they have the same culture? Bitch, I'm German, I'm from Köln, the other day some dude from who knows where wouldn't stop calling me "OIDA!" and I didn't know what the fuck he was saying, turns out "oida" is like "dude" in the south of Germany, and I'm 23 years old and didn't know this, nor did any of my friends. Do you have any fucking idea of how culturally different is Germany through its states and regions? That hand thing is not even true btw
Ian Flores
>The man had already accepted that Fassbender was German
He hadn't, you fucking idiot
He knew he wasn't German no matter what bullshit he was slinging, did you miss the whole "you're intruding" shit?
Juan Barnes
reminder that assbender also looked guilty after doing it, which is probably what actually confirmed it for him
Ethan Foster
Which American accent? Louisiana's accent? New York's accent? Oregon's accent? Texan accent? There's a fuckload of accents throughout the states, I'm pretty sure those spyhunters wouldn't be able to tell between a Maine accent and a Florida accent despite the 2 actually being different. Maybe they can recognize between "Canadian" and "American" accent, but I really fucking doubt they can recognize between 60 different accents. Fassbender wasn't even speaking with an english accent (Fassbender is German btw), so the gestapo dude only had to narrow his search to like a whopping 100 accents and like 80000 small villages located in who the fuck knows where
Christopher Nguyen

This is because you never go outside probably. >not knowing "oida" is another way of saying "alter" Imbecile.
And by the way, NOBODY in German does the 3-sign the way Anglos do it, no matter which part you're from. I know this for a fact.

David Roberts
he was literally leaving his chair until the hand thing, the guy was convinced he was German.
Of course he looked guilty because Tarantino wrote a world where a country with 80 million people that was formed by several isolated states somehow shares a unique culture with 0 variables. Hell even small places like Puerto Rico have vastly different customs according to the area.
Where are you from? And I've literally never seen ANYONE here making a different 3-sign, blame the globalization if you will.

if we're being real if I wanted to get the jump on somebody and I was a gestapo officer I'd act like I was cool with them 'being german' too.
I mean, nigga what, are you going to act like you're accusingly suspicious of them at face value, you're an idiot
Ian Clark
See Tarantino: "OK Michael, so, for this scene, you not only spoke with a non-german accent, but you also did some thing that german culture doesn't do like that!" "But Quentin...I'm German...which German accent did I not speak in? You know we got like literally over 1000 accents and a fuckload of dialects, also culture and customs are different throughout the land, people usually think all of Germany rolls by Bavarian culture, which is in fact pretty unique and isolated...I don't even come from Bavaria. Quentin, that's not how we roll" "Look Michael...shut up, you gotta look as guilty as a puppy who just ate all the toilet paper in the trash can ok?"
"yeah sure...you're paying me I guess"
Cooper Hill
He was straight up confrontational at the beginning until he heard the village story, which is where he obviously said "oh yeah, you know what? Germany IS a huge place, and I haven't been everywhere there, so it's actually believable that you don't share an accent typical from Hochdeutsch-speaking regions". What any sane person would think, really
Adam Perez
this. the two defected germans were the coolest guys in the movie
Leo Miller
people can change their minds
Jason Robinson
Yeah and he fucking changed his mind because as we've already said like 40 times: Tarantino was the director and he's a retard who believes that all countries share a single accent and a single set of cultural customs and conventions
Luis Sullivan
he didnt look guilty faggots. he was pissed off at him and just got done shit talking him. he was already looking down when he orsered the drinks
he was just quietly seething and waiting for the ss guy to down his drink and fucl off

but you just argued that tarantino wasn't a retard, that he actually knew germany was a big enough country to include a small anecdote about regional differences and linguistic variations village to village

Canadian accent is also pretty strange, there's multiple different regions with different accents. Europe just doesn't seem to get how big North America actually is
Nathan Thomas
Not to make it shitty like it doesn't count, but if I was a Gestapo officer who was the least bit concerned, what reason would I have to not accuse this guy? Worst case scenario, fassbender is actually German and nothing bad happens. Best case scenario you've caught the spy, as he did. The finger thing could have absolutely been a guess but Fassbender's reaction would've been the same because he wasn't prepared to be in cover to such a degree.
Jose Sanders
This probably sounded a lot cooler in your head huh OP
Noah Myers
He should play BJ in a Wolfenstein movie
Cooper Moore
Wasn't he posing as an officer from a higher rank or at least an equal?
You can't just throw around accusations of treason, that can literally get you court martialed. There's a due process for reporting believed spies and it's not calling them out in the middle of a bar because they didn't ask for glasses in a way you found familiar

If he was posing as an officer of higher or at least equal rank, then why was he acting so passively. He could have never allowed the actual german officer to disturb them.
Landon Nelson
>you guys understand the movie is just supposed to be fun to watch, right? >it doesnt have to be perfectly logical or believable at every turn
No, you are wrong. Tarantino was trying to be sophisticated here, and he achieved the opposite. It has nothing to do with fun. And the movie was shit either way.
Samuel Ortiz
its objectively his best film you must be one of these plebs i hear about
Dominic Campbell
Saying that Fassbender wasnt german because he used the wrong fingers to make the sign is no different from saying some dude isnt american because he asked for a "pop" instead of a "soda"
Jaxon Myers

>Implying Germans were ever that good at spotting spies
Whole country was literally riddled with Allied humint. Meanwhile German spies showed up in the UK without a basic understanding of how the monetary system worked or, occassionally, a sound grasp on the English language.

by making a movie where he rewrites world war 2 to have a band of jews massacring nazis

I remember hearing a story from my mother, around the late 90s, about this group of american soldiers in italy, hiding, who were pretending to be italians in front of the nazis and got killed just because one of them made the wrong '3' sign. Mind you this story was told me at least ten years before the movie came out, so the scene has probably a foundation of truth to it.

Sounds like a bullshit myth like how a fuckload of people believe all germans are cold emotionless bastards. Not saying the myth doesnt exist, just that its that: a myth

Jaxon Cook
Germanfag here Fassbender was talking in very wierd sounding german. I know he is like half German or something, but it's obvious he isn't a native speaker. His pronounciation was off and he talked much slower and with a strange "rhythm" for lack of a better word.
Now in real life, any German would hear he isn't German, trust me. There is a huge difference between someone talking in a local accent and a non-native speaking German.
Now since it's a movie, an American movie as well, you could bend your realism a bit and assume that the SS guy bought the accent bit, but to think that he would buy it 100% and not remain somewhat suspicious is bending it a bit too much.
I always interpreted the scene that SS guy didn't believe the local accent story, but wasn't sure either... but when he saw the "wrong" 3 gesture, ON TOP of his already high suspition, he must have been sure Fassbender wasn't German.
Both the accent and the gesture might have passed by themselves, but together they blew his cover
John Reed

his German was atrocious, it's the kind of German that you get a compliment for 'wow, you speak really good German'. You know that you can speak German fluently when they don't even acknowledge your skills, because why would you? Speaking German isn't something extraordinary to them and they don't pay attention. Gets a bit weird when they ask me from which part of Germany I come from, but they that's about it.

He knew immediately that they weren't germans. He probably studied the enemy dossier and was fucking with them. Are you guys fucking retarded?

Only correct post in the thread. Like all tarantino characters they know things the viewer doesn't, the viewer can only glean it thru their actions. Its reverse dramatic irony.
Justin Myers
So Hellstrom bought Fassbender's lies about Pitz-Pilu to stave off his suspicions about Fassy's accent but can't buy the fact that maybe Germans from there would also use different finger counting? GJ Hackantino

The story goes that Tarrantino hired her because of her exceptional feet, and she refused to let him touch them so she was killed off quickly as a result.

Hans Landa was actually the villain, you know. The worst character of the film BETRAYED the Nazis. Tarantino is a facist.
Luis Carter
Tarantino predicted Call of Duty she looked jewish anyways

autistic german reporting in:
Tarantino is correct about the "three" sign. Nobody in Germany would show it like Fassbender's character.
Also: Baden-Württemberg did not exist until after the war. It was literally constructed by the allies after WW2.
Lincoln Allen
One thing I never understand is when he figured out that Fasbender wasn't German, why didn't he just point a gun at him openly, and announce for the other Nazis in the bar to back him up? Why just low-key point the gun under the table and reduce his odds to a one on four?
Idiot deserved to have his balls shot off.

He's outnumbered 3 to 1 by what he can now presume are three highly trained spies, and could also (correctly) assume they have backup. His backup is a bunch of drunk soldiers who are not presently armed, even with their weapons as close as they are.
But you are right he is stupid, staying and confronting them practically assured his death. Had he left and then gotten a squad from nearby, he could have let them lower their guard and come back/waited for them to leave to kill them.
