they keep changing the code. it used to be [spoilers] and before that it was [spoiler] [QUOTE=sk8a13;27589686]I felt dissapointed by the ending if anything, still enjoyable and definately worth the watch[/QUOTE] anyway I liked the ending. [sp]It ties in perfectly with the opening narration about, and general theme of, consequences for your actions. Just like Chaney couldn't get away with murder, the main characters couldn't get away with going on a killing spree to hunt down a murderer, so they all end up with some sort of lasting wound.[/sp]
Studied the trailer for this in media, looks quite good, might consider seeing it.
I think the reason I liked this film so much was because I didn't know anything about it other than that it was a western. Critically acclaimed films are always better when you know nothing about them.
Also Postal, you never gave your thoughts. [editline]14th February 2011[/editline] Holy double post.

Critically acclaimed films are always better when you know nothing about them.[/QUOTE] well, there are other period movies about as strange as this one. Are you sure it wasn't how they spoke in an "accurate" way, and the humor was still understandable?
Definitely not one of the best Coen Brothers films. I'd say it's probably their sixth best.
Finally got to see it last night as it has only just come out here in the UK, all I can say is: Poor horse :frown:
[sp]Anyone else lolled at the part where you see the man in a bear hide riding a horse? I thought it was an actual bear riding a horse and just lost it. [/sp]
There is a shortage of good western movies. Finally, another one was made. I'm going to watch this at the cinema.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;28092031]Dammit, I want to read the spoilers, but the movie is coming to my local theater this friday.[/QUOTE] Same, Im going to see it with a friend of mine on friday.
I saw this on release, didn't really look for a thread on it. A great movie, if you haven't seen it, your missing out. The only bad part was the Transformers trailer at the beginning. Thought it would be a good movie until I saw Michael Bay...
Finally saw this movie and it was great.
Great movie, really enjoyable.
Okay you will only get this if you have seen it. At the end of the movie me and my friend agreed that it would be hilarious at the end, If labeef rode buy and charged that bitch with a horse, Shot here twice and said, "THATS FOR NOT PAYING ME" And rode off.

[QUOTE=Slothfrenzy;25106308]this looks awesome,Jeff Bridges look like a badass[/QUOTE] When doesn't he?
Movie seems good, I have to watch it...
Watched it today, was pretty cool. Can't say much since I don't watch many movies like this, but we decided to go watch it as I am Number 4 was sold out.
Apparently my friend's relative knitted a pair of socks that are in this movie.
Saw the film yesterday, it was awesome. The only bad thing about this movie is the epilogue and the intro, sort of.
[QUOTE=mobrockers;27279992]What kind of name is cockburn. I wonder how many times they had to redo scenes where his name was said due to inevitable laughter.[/QUOTE] I think a guy named Pat Cockburn worked on Portal.
I prefer the original's ending. :v:
