I wish I could remember where I read the interview - it was definitely sometime in the 90's - Tarantino was musing about upcoming projects in the wake of Reservoir Dogs, and he mentioned that he had a WWII film in mind as well as a western, so the man definitely has a masterplan...

Tarantino's gone on record as saying there are two types of universe he writes in; the Tarantino Movie Universe and the Movie Movie universe. Films like Kill Bill and From Dusk Till Dawn exist in the latter, a universe where these films exist as movie which characters from the Tarantino Movie Universe (Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, True Romance etc) would go to see.


Amusingly, there exists the idea that Donny Donowitz AKA The Bear Jew from Inglourious Basterds is the father of the movie producer Lee Donowitz in True Romance and if you take all of these connections to mean they exist on the same Tarantino Movie Universe then True Romance, Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction all exist in a world where Hitler was assassinated during World War II!
Keitel's Mr White also mentions Alabama (the Patricia Arquette character from TRUE ROMANCE) in one of the flashbacks in RESERVOIR DOGS - Tarantino had killed off the Clarence/Christian Slater character at the end of his TRUE ROMANCE script, so the back story became that Alabama or 'Bama' as White calls her, hooked up with him after Clarrnce died. Of cause, Tony Scott's filmed ending would contradict that notion.

I'd not spotted the Donowitz connection though. Doh!

A shame Tarantino could not tie down a sreenplay for The Vega Brothers - no idea what the proposed film would be about, probably a bunch of gangsterin' in Amsterdam, but the title alone sells it...

Apparently Django Unchained may be the second part in a trilogy of sorts with Inglorious Bastards as the first film.

Obviously a thematic trilogy of sorts, a bit like Polanski's Apartment Trilogy
