[@captainkane1984]

Dr. King Shultz is one of the best characters ever written and acted. A breath of fresh air in a world of overused Hollywood tropes.

[@varadbalan5974]

For the sake for a healthy debate, I’d argue that Stephen (Sam Jackson) was the best character written and acted. Why? Because, as hateful and disgusting as the character is, Stephen is what it takes to succeed in that era. Stephen is simply a reflection of the disgusting society of that time for a black person. Can you really blame Stephen for his actions? Can you really hate him? Or do you empathize with the smart slave who’s working the system?

[@rudrapratap6688]

@@varadbalan5974 tho he may have did what he did to survive, there's plenty of reason to hate him, blame him and curse him. Stephen was indeed well written and whether he was greater than Dr. skultz is a debatable, he could be but we don't know.

His salute to the other contenders is a quintessential example of respect, integrity, humility and humbleness. This is an example of class that needs to be absorbed by all. I hope Christoph is part of Quentin's "last film"

[@voraciousreader3341]

Well, another actor could have done the exact gesture of “respect, integrity, [and] humility” (“humbleness” and “humility” are exactly the same thing, btw) without meaning any of those things….the “gesture” in and of itself is meaningless unless one has a good deal of knowledge about the actor, or anyone, for that matter. I’ve watched several of his rather lengthy interviews, and he seems very humble, etc., indeed, but then….he’s an actor, lol! The fact is, we only know what other actors and professionals who’ve worked with him tell journalists, and that’s generally a good gauge by which to measure veracity. My point is, it’s nice to think Waltz is as wonderful as you _think_ he is, but there’s really no way of knowing.

[@Jack-hb4dm]

His character’s death in Django was the first time a fictional character’s death bummed me out as an adult. I know the film didn’t leave much time to be sad about his death, but his 1 of a kind treatment of the slaves in the movie that isn’t seen from any other white character in the whole movie left the remaining scenes with the feeling that something was missing. And even when Django was riding off with his wife, I could still feel the absence of safety that his character provided for Django. And to go from that to his character in Inglorious Basterds just shows how amazingly dynamic and talented Christoph Waltz actually is

[@mrdzuan94]

Christoph Waltz is a legend in his own league. Every movie I've watched of him, however big or small the role, never fails to captivate me. He's a genius both in acting and as a person. He reiterated his famous line from Django Unchained about how he and Tarantino scaled the mountain because they weren't afraid, how they slay the dragon because they weren't afraid, and how they crossed hellfire because it was worth it! Did anyone realize that after that he said something like "I'm repeating the lines from that movie." "I'm sorry but I can't resist it?" - that "im sorry but I can't resist it" is ALSO a line from Django Unchained. That was his swansong moment in the movie itself before bowing out with a bang!

"This guy is so underrated..." Like, how? He only become a known actor in the US with Inglourious Basterds and has won 2 Oscars (the latter of which I don't think he should've won, but whatever) since then. I can't think of anyone who's won 2 Oscars in such a short timespan recently. DDL and Sean Penn (both won two in the space of five years) are the only ones who I can think of who come close. He's obviously great, but he's not underrated at all.

[@GiantSandles]

iammarwanyo Meh, that's not really 'underrated'. Philip Seymour Hoffman isn't very well-known either, but most people who do know who he is consider him one of the best actors alive. I could probably point to other examples of that sort of thing if I weren't so lazy.

I fail to see how he played the same character in both movies. Rather it's more like there was a role for a German character. A German guy.... playing a German character. Holy shit that's convenient, don't you think?

The only thing those two charcters have in common is that their played by the same actor.

***** hes Austrian, just sayin :)

Ed Dead And German-born. I'm a German patriot and Austrians are Germans too, there's no difference. They were so for a thousand years and they still are.

I have to come here to look at clips of his winning TWO oscars after reading about it on the internet. How can someone win TWO oscars for each nomination within just THREE years?/ INSANE!
