"Basterd" might be pushing it a little for a superhero game like CoX.
(Shut up at the back or I'll give -you- a Tarantino chin!) >.>
But anyway, a safer suggestion would be to call it "Inglourious". Keeps the ESRB happy, right?

The review in the newspaper yesterday (Dallas Morning News) kept calling the movie Basterds. I thought it was hilarious.
Also, we've already got an NPC called "Damned".

Depending on the context, or even ignoring that, "Damned" isn't as harsh a word, IMO. Then again, that's exactly that: my opinion. >.>

We don't need to add another badge every time a new movie comes out.
We get enough new badges every issue as it is. Recently, they added a whole bunch and then took them away. 
We might as well add a "Quidditch Player" badge for hours spent flying in Croatoa, or an "Honorary Autobot" badge for destroying 200 5th Column Mekmen.
So far only you've just suggested those. :\

You're (Generic "You" to the person who sent the note, but I have an idea) right, I did exaggerate a bit. Thanks for the -Rep. 
But I would still vote "No, thanks." on this suggestion, and feel that while amusing, tying a badge to a recent movie makes me wonder why not consider others?
As for the Harry Potter/Croatoa reference, there is a University building there.

Doesn't flying without a broom get you a red card in international quidditch? Or is that just under the Olympic rules?

The more badges the better! And it's not like this game shies away from blatant references. That's why we love it.
Make it for beating, say, 100 5th Column bosses.
Badges for defeating Wyvern and Legacy Chain are a must IMO.
We villains demand recognition for our efforts in putting these pompous do-gooders in their places. ^__^
Movie tie-in badges are a bad idea.

Agreed. Not having any associated badges makes them even more "meh" to fight.

Then I guess we have to delete a few badges, huh?

I agree wholeheartedly with this suggestion. A /jranger badge would be awesome! The only question is how it would be gotten within the game.|

Oh and as for the no movie tie in badges. I don't care one way or another on that one.

I want a badge for killin' Nazis!
Defeat 100 5th Column in melee range (although not necessarily with melee powers) and earn the Basterd badge.
@craggy see me on Union for TFs, SFs (please!) or just some good ol fashioned teaming.
