My SO always falls asleep on the couch during movies. Fargo was the only movie where I was annoyed.

Caesar was weird, it was like the plot didn't build up and was pretty much what another goon said: a lot of really nice scenes arranged in some sort of order

Mister Nygard there, ya know, when the police lady was talkin to him in the station see, she was tellin him the story about the guy who lost a glove on the train platform, ya know, he was baffled, see, he couldn't understand a situation where he'd give up somethin of his own sos maybe somebody else could have somethin instead of both of them gettin nothin. Altruism wasn't in his makeup ya know? Only then there when the cops were talkin to him in the car, see, the one cop tells him the riddle about the fox and the rabbit and the cabbage there and right away he picks up on it ya know? Cause a guy like that, see, he can always see the way clear to a ways for him to get everythin and everbody else gets nothin. There's no understandin some people ya know?

Fargo is a pretty good movie, but the TV show is absolute poo poo. I have no idea why it gets all the praise. If they would just come out and say that Billy Bob Thornton is a teleporting space god who uses mind control to turn everyone around him completely retarded, I might be able to finish the first season.

No he's literally The Devil see, only not in a literal kinda way, more of a figurative kinda way then ya know.

Almost all coen brothers movies introduce a question of whether or not a higher power is conspiring to control the plot, and it's almost always left ambiguous. Billy Bob in the show itself successfully convinces the store owner that he has offended God and is being biblically punished. A serious Man ends on a full-bore cliffhanger and your interpretation of the coincidence of events dictates how you perceive what ought to have happened.

I could barely finish the first episode, people say the second season is better.

Inside Llewyn Davis was I think a really good movie but I really didn't get what I wanted out of it. Sort of the same with A Serious Man, I just kinda felt like poo poo after watching it.

I want to watch ILD because I have a big crush on Oscar Issac, but I never seem to think of it when I'm home with nothing to do

Finally got around to watching No Country For Old Men, liked it. They did a great job on the villain. Anton Chugihr is very similar to Richard Iceman Kuklinski.

The way they talk, the weird things they talk about, a ruthless set of rules they follow. "Guy owed me money, was giving me the run around so I killed him".

Hail Caesar is weird because, like IRL Hollywood, most of the poo poo that happens is completely irrelevant and the communist writers are complete fuckups. The movie is too meta for its own good.
