The Films Of The Coen Brothers

Sat November 17, 2018 3:51 am

im ten minutes into The Ballad of Buster Scruggs and it's a hoot.

Also could a mod please merge the 3-4 other Coen threads we have into one master thread?

Bump them. I'm not going to go searching for them. And quit making them if you know we already have one (or more)

Blood Simple & A Serious Man. Both way underrated, possibly their 2 best.

Besides Lebowski, of course.

Oh my god, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is just absolutely stellar. Fantastic. Sublime. Out of this world. This movie single-handedly saved the dreadful movie year that has been 2018. Jesus Christ I loved this movie so much. I feel ecstatic!!!

Also, just gonna throw this out there: this made me want the Coens to make a horror movie.

I think this might be their best film since Lebowski.

Yeah, it's great. I don't know that I'd go as far as to call it "their best since Lebowski", but it's solid the whole way through, which is especially rare for an anthology film. So well-written, too. That Liam Neeson chapter was messed up.

That one in particular keeps following me around. That kid from Harry Potter was fantastic as the limbless orator.

LV: I love that James Franco’s entire chapter is just an elaborate setup for a single (fantastic) joke.

Well, you know the saying - there are two kinds of people, the Ruddos, and the Trags.

Yeah I don't give a shit about your requests for some great Coen brothers thread merge. Therefore, I'm not going to make the effort. Think about that dominance as you are looking up at my nutsack

Call ruddo out on the missed thread-merging opportunities on RM and you just may get your wish!
