WOW WOW OMG WTF BBQ new Coen brothers movie trailer

[Case Closed]

This looks like a movie about a guy who kills people with a air compressor...am I missing something?

[True]

I saw the man that wasn't there the other day, it's alright no that great.

Ladykillers I looked forward to and I thought the same.

Big Lebowski I liked a lot aswell as Barton Fink.

FWIW Ridley Scott is supposed to direct Blood Meridian adaptation in a few years

Wow. Super mixed feelings about this. Scott's style could work well with certain parts of the novel, especially the over-the-top operatic violence, I just hope he resists the urge to make it slick, or try to make the Kid a more prominent, likable character. I'd rather see him direct 'The Road', and leave Blood Meridian to someone deeper/scarier, like Cuaron or Von Trier or Scorsese or Coppola or Lynch...

Scott's style isn't slick, IMO. Maybe you're thinking of his brother, Tony Scott. Films like Alien and Blade Runner indicate a style perfectly suited for Blood Meridian (though they were early in his career). Even Gladiator which is an epic movie was shot in a gritty style (parts, at least) that would lend well to the a harsh desert landscape.

TBL
RA
Fargo

In general I prefer their comedies to their dramas, but Fargo had plenty of dark humor in it.

I would consider Fargo a comedy more so than a Drama.

The reason why I repeatedly watch it is for its dark humor, not for its dramatical elements.

This movie is a great example of the kind of flick that gets much better as you keep watching it. I've liked it more every time I've watched it, and I wish I could watch it again. The first time through, at many points I wasn't sure I wanted to keep watching at all.

While RA, Fargo, and TBL are my favorites, I do not think that The Hudsucker Proxy ever gets enough credit. I was impressed that the OP had it in his top 5.

Since there hasn't been much discussion about Hudsucker in this thread, I think maybe it is because not enough people have seen it because it is so different than all other Coen Brother movies.

Please go out and watch it (or watch it again). It is good, you know, for kids.

Didn't see Ladykillers

Don't. I never walk out and I love C bros stuff, I didn't last 30 minutes into this piece of trash. It just keeps getting worse and worse until you leave or kill yourself.

The O Danny Boy scene in Miller Crossing might be one of my favorite 4 minutes in film history. Just a perfect example of how the Coen Brothers can master the soundtrack, visuals and acting in one flawless moment (Its a spoiler if you haven't seen the movie yet http://youtube.com/watch?v=Jo-X3fqklCw)

Millers
Hudsucker
