Cristoph waltz’ character was based somewhat on reinhard heydrich, the man who came up with the idea of the holocaust, was eichmann’s boss, and was a nazi so evil that hitler himself was shocked by his cruelty and called him ‘the man with the iron heart’.

On par with the Shawshank Redemption.

This is definitely Tarantino's best film in my opinion, everything about it just works perfectly - the numerous intersecting storylines, the perfect balance of suspense and dark humour, the impeccably written characters, including one of the greatest cinematic villains of the 21st century, the score, the graphically violent action, the sparkling dialogue, the stunning cinematography, the excellent performances. When Aldo looks down at the mark he's left on Landa's forehead and proclaims it to be his masterpiece, I like to imagine it as also being Tarantino himself acknowledging this as his greatest work, and if so, I don't disagree in the slightest.

This probably wasn't your intention, but when Landa was saying why her black employee should not be working during the movie, it sounded like you were reluctantly excusing what he said as a relic of the times. And in some contexts that would be true. But in this context, he was explaining Nazi beliefs on race; beliefs that present-day Nazis still espouse. So it's wrong to say, "it was a different time." In this case, it was less the different time than the Nazi ideology.

So I was reminded of this little bit of trivia when you brought up King Kong during the tavern scene. Hitler was a huge movie buff, he was reported to have watched two or three films in a private theatre every night. As they covered in Lieutenant Hicox's briefing, he also used films extensively in the Nazi Party's propaganda efforts. Allegedly King Kong was a favourite film of Hitler's, along with Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. Knowing Tarantino, I feel like that that scene was put into his movie knowing that piece of trivia. Bonus fact at the beginning of the tavern scene when Hammersmarck and the soldiers are playing the game. One of the guys answers Winnetou Chief of the Apaches. This is a reference to a series of Westerns written by Karl May. That were some of the best selling fiction in Germany at the time. In fact Hitler himself had been a fan from boyhood. They were also widely distributed to the German frontlines as reading material for military personnel. It's details like this that really set Tarantino apart.

It's like Marcellus Wallace's random band-aid and the "glowing" briefcase in Pulp Fiction. There's literally nothing ever said about what's actually *in* the briefcase. Technically there was a lightbulb inside the actual prop for the "glow" effect, but beyond that, QT just lets the audience draw their own conclusions as to what the characters see inside. As for the band-aid on the back of Marcellus Wallace's neck, it was simply the result of actor Ving Rhames cutting himself shaving and Tarantino deciding to just roll with it because it added to the mystery.
