Hanz Landa is the greatest character Tarantino has ever written (He's actually said this himself, it's not my opinion although I agree wholeheartedly. remember, this script was 10 years in the making)Originally Posted by dhart48

I think it's safe to say that waltz has had one of the best roles written for him by tarantino, but i don't think he's the best... i mean django hasn't even come out what about Leo as a villain, or sam jackson as a house slave(still can't wrap my mind around that concept) I'm not taking anything away from waltz by no means ...but i wouldn't even know who to call the best in his films, he has that rare attribute in directors where he gets the best out of his actors, or atleast Uma Thurman.
He's specifically stated in interviews that if he couldn't find the right actor to play the character, the movie would have never been made. I simply can't imagine Leo would do any justice to the role... his "accents" in every single one of his movies fall in and out of his regular voice (Gangs of NY, departed, etc)
If you ask me, Christoph Waltz was dependent upon Hanz Landa as a character just as much as the Character needed him to bring it to life. Come-on... FOUR languages with precision delivery. I'm not sure there's another actor on earth that can do what Christoph did for that character.
Not a big fan of tarantino, but I'll be checking this out just to see how many other films he took shots from
