Puzzles: No Country For Old Men, Wtf

Puzzles 02.14.13	And yet there's a thousand page thematic analysis of the film/novel on wikipedia. Am I missing something here?
clercqie 02.14.13	If you're just watching movies for a no-brainer storyline, then no.
MO 02.14.13	such a good movie
Buzzkillr 02.14.13	you're sort of leaving out the part where all three storylines are connected and yeah it's a lot more complex than that, oh and the themes from the movie are essentially separate from the storyline
Atari 02.14.13	Fantastic movie
chambered99 02.14.13	perfectly paced, perfectly tense
Wolfhorde 02.14.13	whoa, base likes something that got an award. Who would've thought.
evilford 02.14.13	yeah awesome movie. 'If you're just watching movies for a no-brainer storyline, then no. ' [2]
Trebor. 02.14.13	classic movie There Will Be Blood should have won best picture though, if only they came out in different years
londoncalling457 02.14.13	dude youre either gay or paul thomas anderson cuz movie rules
anarchistfish 02.14.13	I probably need to watch this film again cos I likely missed a lot on the first watch. Liked it though
Ire 02.14.13	yea brilliant film
demigod! 02.14.13	I liked No Country more than TWBB, tho most of the latters plot kinda went over my head when i saw it
BigPleb 02.14.13	Where have you been Demi?
evilford 02.14.13	if you're expecting a movie with a traditional arc storyline, you're gonna be confused.
londoncalling457 02.14.13	there will be blood > most movies including no country
Trebor. 02.14.13	Both movies pretty much require multiple viewings
DadKungFu 02.14.13	Puzzles, you're missing out on one of the great movies of the 2000's if you look at it with that attitude.
londoncalling457 02.14.13	anyone here ever see blood simple?
DrGonzo1937 02.14.13	Film is a goddamn masterpiece. A simple story, but one that is very deep if you look into it properly.
MO 02.14.13	"there will be blood > most movies including no country" while I don't agree, there will be blood is also an amazing film
DrGonzo1937 02.14.13	classic movie There Will Be Blood should have won best picture though, if only they came out in different years Another classic. But I think I prefer NCFOM a little more.
NorwichScene 02.14.13	Superb movie 4.5/5
henryChinaski 02.14.13	Yeah movie rules.
BillTheButcher 02.14.13	Daniel Plainview
zxlkho 02.14.13	No Country For Old Men is the Coen Brothers' best film
GringoSuave89 02.14.13	Love that movie. If you are a reader, read the book. It helped make NCFOM go from fantastic movie to masterpiece in my opinion.
CutMan 02.14.13	Damn good film.
DotEight 02.14.13	Great movie. Anton is one of my favorite movie villains.
kris. 02.14.13	there will be blood and no country are both utterly fantastic in their own rights but daniel day lewis kinda out-acted anyone ever in twbb so it wins
toxin. 02.14.13	Need to watch this damn. Probably should read it too, love McCarthy
clercqie 02.14.13	"No Country For Old Men is the Coen Brothers' best film" Actually, I like A Serious Man the most.
GringoSuave89 02.14.13	Not in an ironic way, but The Big Lebowski will always be my favorite. O Brother Where Art Thou is third.
Hospital 02.14.13	that shotgun silencer doe
WeepingBanana 02.14.13	No Country isn't even close to Coen Brother's best but it's still really fuckin' good TWBB is better though
Buzzkillr 02.14.13	Fargo and The Big Lebowski come pretty close but apart from that I can't really think of any other Coen brother's movies that are close to matching it
WeepingBanana 02.14.13	Barton Fink, Raising Arizona, O Brother Where Art Thou (barely) hell, i think i liked True Grit more than No Country tbh
clercqie 02.14.13	They're all great, yeah.
wacknizzle 02.14.13	Fucking awesome movie
ViralOblivion 02.14.13	Amazing movie one of my all time favorites the fact that it has no music I think makes it better
evilford 02.14.13	agreed^^^ music placed in a movie can just be wrong sometimes, and it totally would have killed NCFOM imo
tommygun 02.14.13	sweet movie sweet book
tragic.details 02.14.13	One of my favorite films, dude. Coen Brothers are fucking great...I'm looking forward to their next film.
Trebor. 02.14.13	He's not a redneck what the fuck
Crysis 02.14.13	It's one of the best movies I've ever seen
Trebor. 02.14.13	He really doesn't get it
Trebor. 02.14.13	The dialogue is so fucking mesmerizing, really a perfect script
chambered99 02.15.13	big lebowski and this are the coens best
tommygun 02.15.13	yeah he rules I've read this and the road both amazing got a copy of blood meridian somewhere I keep forgetting to read
tommygun 02.15.13	better make sure I'm in the right frame of mind to concentrate hard then
Trebor. 02.15.13	I didn't get Michael Clayton but I'm not going to make a list about it
tommygun 02.15.13	ok sweet thanks for the heads up
clercqie 02.15.13	"My copy has these cool chapter breakdowns to give an idea of what happened and it helped me understand how the writing style worked. " So that totally defeats the purpose of figuring out a book's thematics on your own / having a personal take on a work.
GringoSuave89 02.18.13	Woah woah, I loved Michael Clayton.
Strider 02.18.13	I shat myself when I saw Javier Bardem's performance in that movie
RickySpanish 02.18.13	The movie is brilliant, and one of the rare occasions the bad guy wins (or gets away atleast)...unlike the movie End of Watch which was good til a gay ass shit dumb ending.
Insurrection 02.18.13	Just saw this movie yesterday actually. Javier Bardem was brilliant
RickySpanish 02.18.13	I believe he does, dumb bitch shoulda picked heads or tails
Insurrection 02.18.13	Im sure he did considering hes a killer and all he wouldnt just let someone who defied his orders live...
Trebor. 02.18.13	Puzzles My favorite bar in new york city
Trebor. 02.18.13	"does Javier Bardem's character kill the wife? I can never figure that out." Yeah cuz he reloads his weapon or whatever
Trebor. 02.18.13	"Im sure he did considering hes a killer and all he wouldnt just let someone who defied his orders live..." Nah dude he leaves it up to the coin toss
americanohno 02.18.13	"notice I say "film" instead of "movie"? is because it's that fucking good" this is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever read in my entire life. And I read all the shit I write on here. anyway I think Zodiac and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford are the two best american films of 2007. I do like NCFOM and TWBB just fine but I don't like like them.
GringoSuave89 02.18.13	It's implied she's dead. He checks his boots as he leaves the room, which makes me think he's checking for blood. Captive bolt pictures are messy shit.
GringoSuave89 02.18.13	The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford is flawless.
Puzzles 02.18.13	That prick McCarthy or whatever his name is ripped off Stan Lee. You know how two-face does the coin flip thing? Chigurgh does that too
Puzzles 02.18.13	/sarcasm
Puzzles 02.18.13	So, this list is a joke, and you guys really need to read The Road. It's fantastic, probably a more compelling storyline and equally brilliant writing. Thematically it's a little more straightforward but in terms of everything else, I found it to be a cut above No Country.
tommygun 02.18.13	yeah he definitely kills the wife they show him checking his boots for blood rather than showing it on screen (can't remember how they handle it in the book) -- I mean even llewellyn gets killed off screen. the road is right up there with it, book is road > no country, vice versa for movie. that said the road movie ruled and viggo mortensen was fantastic in it
GringoSuave89 02.18.13	In the book, she calls wrong.
TheNexus100 02.18.13	movie is outstanding
paxman 02.18.13	You're an idiot if you don't think this is one of the best films ever made
paxman 02.18.13	" I didn't get Michael Clayton but I'm not going to make a list about it" Aww Trebs that movie is also one of my favorites
Butkuiss 05.04.13	The Road is a slightly better book but NCFOM is some of McCarthy's finest work.
Calc 05.04.13	Oh you learned to oversimplify....
rockandmetaljunkie 05.04.13	A great book and a superb movie.
Puzzles 05.04.13	it has grown on me big time
BallsToTheWall 05.04.13	You're an idiot if you don't think this is one of the best films ever made Well, considering that there's about a million movies better than this....
evilford 05.04.13	a million? that's a lot, huh
