@Buuhan1:
Let's all agree Death Proof never happened.
Death Proof was great. Definitely the better half of Grindhouse.
What we all need to agree never happened is him being in anyway attached to Four Rooms. Though, his short was undeniably the best.
But still, that's not saying much considering the quality of the others.
Sadly, Joseph Gordon-Levitt was also supposed to star, but he had to drop from this to work on his own film.
But yeah, I'm super excited for this. I'm really hoping it's fantastic. Inglorious Basterds was pretty good, but I felt like it could have been a lot better. Except for the opening scene. That scene might just be the best thing Tarantino's ever done.

@Mr.:
Haven't seen all of Tarintino's movies so I'm not really tired of his schtick so far, but I'm really sick of Tarantino wannabes.
To be fair, Tarantino hasn't done that many movies.
You've got:
Reservoir Dogs
Pulp Fiction
Jackie Brown
Kill Bill 1&2
Death Proof
Inglorious Basterds
Django Unchained will be the 8th feature length film he's written and directed. 7th if we count Kill BIll 1&2 as one (as we should, as it was all written and filmed at the same time); 6th if we don't count Death Proof, as it was part of Grindhouse rather than its own thing, and thus wasn't Tarantino's "usual" thing, as that was a project driven by Rodriguez.
Reservoir Dogs came out in 92, so 8 (6) films over 2 decades. Hardly a lot of films, and hardly enough to get tired by. Especially since a lot of these films are completely different. The only Tarantino "trademarks," if you will, are shots from inside a car trunk, and extensive, fantastic dialogue.
Also, so I don't sound too much like a fan boy, Jackie Brown was really bad, in my opinion. He could have easily cut 20 minutes of driving / walking from the film. And the story was just meh. But then again, it was an adaptation of a book, so there's that.
