>They say I'm a madman, Barton, but I'm not mad at anyone. Honest I'm not. Most guys I just feel sorry for. Yeah. It tears me up inside, to think about what they're going through. How trapped they are. I understand it. I feel for 'em. So I try and help them out...Jesus. Yeah. I know what it feels like, when things get all balled up at the head office. It puts you through hell, Barton. So I help people out. I just wish someone would do as much for me.
In Barton Fink, did Charlie want Barton to kill him?
One of my favorite parts of rewatching Barton Fink is just how knowing the ending makes you look at John Goodman's character in a completely different light.
Adrian Hall
He befriended Barton, and I guess he wanted Barton to listen to him.
but they make it obvious he's a murderer the first time you watch it..
Ryder Ross
How?
Julian Russell

We all agree that Burn After Reading is the Coen's worst right? And does anyone actually like A Serious Man, like actually think it's funny?
Charles Collins
Their worst is undeniably The Ladykillers or Intolerable Cruelty. And I think it's a testament to how good the Coens are that their worst movies aren't even bad, just bad by their standards.
Leo Martin
I haven't actually seen either of those because I can't stand the Coen's straight up comedies other than Raising Arizona and Lebowski
Asher Gonzalez
You don't like O Brother Where Art Thou?
Alexander Sanchez
That's the most tolerable, but I'm not really a fan
The point of A Serious Man isn't comedy you retard, it's a story about the search for answers to unanswerable questions in a chaotic, unforgiving world.
Gabriel Davis
But it's billed as a comedy, and I've heard people say it was the funniest movie of the last decade. I didn't dislike the movie, but it certainly wasn't funny.
Samuel Watson
Burn After Reading is pretty good for what it is, and honestly Brad Pitt's performance makes the film worth it.
A Serious Man is pure kino i won't even try to make you understand, the bits with the gook kid were hilarious desu.
Joshua Fisher
This is bait right?
Jordan Barnes
sure it was
Carson Rogers
Burn After Reading is a lot of fun. John Malkovich is a riot.
John Miller
>hating on Burn After Reading
it's great, I think the fact it came after NCFOM puts people off it for whatever reason
also how is Hail Caesar!, I've yet to see it
Kayden Myers
hail ceasar is probably the closest the coens have ever come to just bad. exploring "classic" hollywood without touching upon the CIA or mccarthyism is just lazy and toothless.
Noah Hill
So who killed that woman? It wasn't Barton, right?
Landon Walker
BEST: A Serious Man WORST: Raising Arizona FAVORITE: No Country for Old Men OVERRATED: Fargo UNDERRATED: The Man Who Wasn't There
Jace Scott
The Nazi Party rose to power because the intellectual elite didn't understand the desires of the common man, as much as they purported to.
Brayden Miller
BEST: No Country WORST: Raising Arizona FAVORITE: O Brother OVERRATED: A Serious Man UNDERRATED: Burn
Asher Lee

Brody Reed
Charlie obviously
Parker Morgan
Boring
Austin Turner
Fargo is pretty much perfectly rated, I keep coming back to it
BEST: Fargo WORST: The Ladykillers, come on FAVORITE: Barton Fink OVERRATED: Burn After Reading UNDERRATED: The Hudsucker Proxy
Why did the Hudsucker Proxy get as much shit as it did? It's really fun
