Quentin Tarantino talks up Kill Bill 3

Quentin Tarantino is notorious for teasing future projects. And now, with Inglourious Basterds finished, he's starting to hint about the likelihood of Kill Bill 3.

But don't go staking out your local fleapit just yet. According to QT, he definitely plans to get around to it, but he's planning to give Uma Thurman's The Bride - AKA Beatrix Kiddo - a 10-year break to spend some time with her child and enjoy the quiet life before going back to fighting.

And since his timescale is based on the release of the second film, that means he's likely eyeing 2014 as a release year.

QT made the comments on an Italian TV show, where he was also asked about the Inglourious prequel (maybe) and a Pulp Fiction sequel (never).

And since it's still rattling around only in his skull, there's no sense of what form the movie might take, especially since Bill was - SPOILER! - well and truly killed the last time around.
