It's fullsteam ahead for Inglourious Basterds!

As the WWII flick gains momentum heading into awards season, producer Lawrence Bender hosted a party at his Beverly Hill's home earlier this week to celebrate passing the $300 million mark worldwide.

In the house were director Quentin Tarantino, the movie's stars Christoph Waltz, Diane Kruger, Melanie Laurent and Eli Roth. Sadly, Brad Pitt couldn't make it.

Rounding at the bunch were Sacha Baron Cohen, Isla Fisher, Jonah Hill, Josh Brolin, Diane Lane, Judd Apatow and even Don Rickles along with directors Ron Howard, Michael Bay and Ridley Scott.

Even though Waltz was the man to meet because he's considered a shoo-in for an Oscar nomination for his work as the evil Col. Hans Landa, he had to dash out early to get back to the set of Green Hornet, the upcoming superhero flick in which he stars opposite Seth Rogen.
