I love that the movie even punishes the main nazi, even though he's supposed to be the "good" one who makes a deal with the good guys and surrenders on peaceful terms. Movie is like nope. He's a fucking nazi forever.
That's why I like Brad Pitt's character. Hans Landa is educated, speaks like 5 languages, is principled, and even offers mercy a few times. He even completely betrays the Nazi high command and allows them to get burned alive in the movie theater. Aldo does not care. Carves a swastika in his stupid nazi face anyway, because he's a fucking nazi.

So many people seem to miss that. Ok! So the Nazi is brave! That's great! Also still a fuckin nazi.
:bonk:
The bizarre adoration and misunderstanding of concepts like honor really get to me.
Like dude, he actively enabled nazis and was a nazi. There's no honor in that existence just because you decide to arbitrarily apply principles.
