When did you realize the best movie of 2018 was Buster Scruggs?

As soon as i finished watching it

Pure Fucking Kino
>ywn be a prospector digging for gold in early American paradise
>ywn meet Mr. Pocket

It's certainly one of the Cohen's strongest films but there are definite flaws that stop it from being "the best"

>Let me tell you buddy
around that part

The soundtrack was beautiful

Just the fact that it came out during the worst year for films ever makes it a great movie in my book.

I almost agree, but I enjoy the films of Wes Anderson.

But that's not At Eternity's Gate

Why was Mr Arthur so based?

So the Le Taken man killed that guy with no limbs right? Think the Chicken got him so quick cash?

why didn't they just run away?

The payoff for short was amazing. It's just the beginning and middle character development parts that really don't make me want to watch that one in particular again.

He was great at killing Injuns

IMO the Sisters Brothers was better. It even had a much better and satisfying ending.

I always thought it was a commentary on actors and producers

I loved Mr. Arthur so goddamn much. Throughout the whole thing you think he's just some sort of old grump doing his job for a buck, but he immediately becomes one of the most likeable characters if not THE most likeable character in the whole film in the matter of 5-10 minutes. If that's not good acting/writing, I don't know what is.

it was not and it didn't

Yes he dropped him off the bridge

That's a high price

Nelson is a jew

>THE most likeable character in the whole film in the matter of 5-10 minutes
That's not Mr. Pocket

All Gold Canyon is the best segment.

I didn't really feel like the twist for mortal remains added much. It was fairly predictable and the scene was really amazing even without it.

Even Buster Scruggs was kino in its goofy way.

>Yea Forums unanimously loves TBoBS

So this place still has some hope left....

It wasn't a twist. I think Mortal Remains is the best story, as it's great characterisation in a cramped place.

The ending speech was suprisingly touching

No it doesn't.
Too cynical for my taste.

Yes. I think the point was the cripple guy saw it coming a mile away but was helpless to do anything about it as he had no concept of life outside of doing those performances.

Yea Forums told me the western genre is dead. the fuck is going on?

Attached: 1434071151626.png (600x700, 202K)

Every reviewer talks about it as though it came out of left field, so I think most people were surprised by it

Holy shit it is true. How is it the coens are some of the most respectful directors for americana despite being jews?

Where would they go? Back to the wagons filled with women and children that the savages would just kill and rape? Had to fight or die trying in that situation.

They're flyover jews

he was also helpless to do anything about it because, yknow, he had no limbs.

Is it hard to find work without a high school education?

Jews larping as cowboys is not kino.

Assassination of Jesse James is among the best of the genre.
3:10 to Yuma is entertaining.
True Grit is good.
Sister Brothers is good.
Bone Tomahawk is good.
Rango is very good.
The Rider might be good but I haven't seen it yet.
So it's not entirely dead.

It had the best comanche attacks, close to Blood Meridian tier

In the Prospector's story he says, "How high can a bird count anyway?" indicating that the chicken was just a fool's trap.

The Coen bros are vehemently opposed to any sort of pandering. Just watch some of their interviews.

As I was a walking one morning of late
Who should I spy
But my own dear comrade?
Wrapped up in flannel
So hard is his fate
I boldly stepped up to
And kindly did ask him
Why are you wrapped up in flannel so white?
My body is injured
And sadly disordered
All by a young woman
My own heart's delight
Oh had she but told me
When she disordered me
Had she but told me of it at the time
I might have got salts
Or pills of white mercury
But now I'm cut down

Also, Rango is fantastic, and I don't even like animated movies. It's clearly made more for adults than kids

Pretty decent character based on how "slow" some woman can be.

Gay

4 SCORE

I kek'd out loud at that part.

No way. The second was the weakest by far.

I perceived more as absurdist than satire. All of the stories were about the cruelty of chance/fate and human frailty

This, Franco is a hack

When I watched Tom Waits yelling at a hill for 20 minutes and loved it.

Agree, but "HOLD STILL" was one of the best set up jokes in the entire thing.

All in all Buster might be my favorite but I it was by far the comfiest and had a very nice "Man vs. Nature" vibe to it.
The fact that it was written by Jack London also really helped.

WHERE ARE YA MR. POCKET

well, you're wrong.

It was sort of funny but didn't really say anything that the other stories covered more ingeniously. I had a strong feeling that the guy who picked him up was a cattle rustler, and that they'd get caught. How else could I expect the story to end after the absurd, anticlimactic "bad guy's comeuppance" ending of the first segment?

Buster is the best because ive never seen anything like it before and gave no fucks but im a cartoon nerd so im kind of biased, otherwise yeah i'd say All Gold Canyon.

One thing I have noticed, and forgive me if this sounds incredibly autistic, is that the Coen brothers always include this one recording in the sound design of all of their movies. It's the sound of a motorcycle revving in the distance or something. I swear that the Coens must have some secret agreement with each other that they need to use this sound effect in every single film they've made, because I've heard it in the ambient sound design of every movie I've seen by them.
I instantly recognized the point in this film where they used that sound: when the James Franco character is coming to after all the native americans have run off and hears cows lowing in the distance. The fact that the groaning sound of the motorcycle engine or whatever from a great distance was used as a cow sound effect was actually pretty clever.

No I now realize I could have posted that clearer.
My least favorite is the torso. Because you know where its going after the first 5 mins. Tell me I am wrong about that. Panshot didnt need to say anything. Its just a story about a dumbass who gets whats coming to him in the end.

How could we not appreciate the story of a gold miner that gets shot in the back and then kills the son of a bitch that shot him, takes all of the gold, and carries on? All of these stories discuss the hardship of the Wild West, but this one shows what each one of them was struggling to achieve, hoping they'd find their own Mr Pocket, whether that'd be actual gold or a fine woman or a chance to live a good life.

How the fuck is his acting horrible you goon

They absolutely despise pandering even if it earns them brownie points with an all-Jewish academy.

They make what they want and make it damn good.

Fun fact: the guy playing the cripple was Dudley Dursley in the dullest franchise in the history of franchises

the bounty hunters referred to distracting people before they apprehended them. the bounty hunters are the coens, we're the passengers in the carriage, and they're distracting us on the way to the grave.

Disagree.

The LOTR Appendices are still the best behind-the-scenes/making of I've ever seen.

I think a lot of these comments about the film being ugly is just more irrational hatred against digital filmmaking. The way the colors changed on the carriage was interesting to me, for example. It's just different from what you're used to and that's why you think it looks off, like 48fps.

There is no behind the scenes for No Country For Old Men. It's a bunch of footage Josh Brolin shot and edited.

youtube.com/watch?v=HGh4AD6BT24

My question is this. When Neeson goes to the brothel one of the whores points to the quad and asks something like "has he ever done this?" and Neeson replies "just once".

What did that mean? Did that mean that the dude banged Neeson's wife or something and that's why he got quad'ed, or did Neeson get really liquored up one night and use the quad as a cocksleeve?

but it was and it did lol

it was probably the worst movie I've seen in a while. Dunno why Joaquin would do it.

yeah he discovered some guy was fucking his wife so he chopped off his limbs and took him on a poetry tour across the country.

I don't think it's meant to be explained, that's typically Coen storytelling. Either possibility is valid though, or maybe the retard has no dick.

brutal

It adds to the depressing existence he has basically. Even in his sorry state he once found love, and it was very important to him judging by the way Neeson says "once", but he inevitably lost it and has no chance of any joy in his life beyond some applause.

Regardless of what side of the political spectrum he is on, he's right. Voting third party is a waste of time and energy.

Really glad based Netflix gave them the chance to make this. And that jew Spielberg wants to shut them out.

Shame Scruggs didn't sweep the Oscars, but it's obvious why. Can't have Netflix win big, and can't have a white cast celebrating.

Yes they were dead, on a kind of ferry over the river styx to the afterlife.
More so though, the entire film was a commentary on artistry, filmmaking, and the coen brother's take on creative expression.

The bounty hunters in the last scene were a representation of the coen brothers. The 3 women represent the audience. The old lady is polretards, the trapper retard is sjw and based anons like me are the french guy.
The Coen Brothers in the last scene are discussing how they've made many films before (done the journey many times before), how they love working with each other (he cries at his friends song every time), how the audience loves to jibber jabber but they'll shut up when true creative pros do their thing, and realise how pathetic their talk was in comparison to a beautiful song, and how art and film, specificially the Coen brother's work is like a kind of song sung to you on the journey to death, that it both highlights death, and also how it's beauty acts as a momentary reprieve from the existential terrors of death. Both for the audience, and the artists.

Attached: 0608724243.jpg (945x960, 98K)

You can't trust reviews for horror films. Most reviewers hated it because it's told from the perspective of the psychopath. It's extremely unconventional to do that, because storytelling is very powerful and audiences naturally empathize with the protagonist of a story.

For example, I'm not an edgelord, and I was not onboard with Matt Dillon killing people. But there's a scene at the end of the film when he's racing police back to kill a bunch of people he has tied up. And normally in the climax of a film like this, it would be the police protagonist racing to save them. But it's the killer's perspective. And because of the way i'm conditioned to stories, for a minute, I was rooting for him to be able to kill them. Which I found quite disturbing.

So I take it as a good film, because it made me realize that. Whereas I think most people aren't interested in opening themselves up to thinking about how impressionable we are and how ultimately open we are to being led along with heinous things.

It's also a black comedy, and some moments really are quite funny, and that would go totally over the head of most people. I think it's a good film, but it's flawed, and you'll never see any professional discussion of the actual flaws. I think a much better similar film is Man Bites Dog. But The House that Jack Built is certainly both interesting, and entertaining. I would discuss my criticisms of it but that'd ruin a few things so just watch it.

Not for the US

Also i'm not him and I think Buster Scruggs is ultimately a better film. Even though it's not a better art film, because it's not an art film.

But there are many better art films.

I thought it was that good, It has some scripting issues, mostly to do with the overbearing narration, and it's also pretty masturbatory, but that comes with the territory when you watch a von trier film

I think the narration was really just an exceptionally cheap moral highground copout / narrative device, masquerading as some kind of high concept

Man Bites Dog has a similar device to give the solitary killer a way to talk (a film crew documenting him), but that atleast gives the story extra actual characters with real issues and depth, not just some pretentious mary stu moral arbiter non-character.

It's just lazy storytelling.

>gets killed by the only person to show him respect
>will carry on his legacy
Damn right it’s a happy ending.

but that's not The Guilty

this, it looks like a straight to DVD flip. doesn't help that it has netflix attached to it

But it was not a movie... it was several disjointed, unfinished stories thrown together. If it did not have the Coen Bros name on it nobody would care.

I've been writing a sword & sorcery screenplay revolving around somebody telling a number of disconnected stories by a campfire, each of wildly different tone. I lost a lot of confidence in it until I saw Buster Scruggs.

What is the connection between the stories?

I suggest that you read some David Mitchell Novels.
As Herzog says if you want to be a filmmaker read read read etc.
Cloud Atlas, Number9Dream & The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet are all fantastic novels with a number of mostly unrelated stories.

>No black people

/pol/ strikes again

No!

they're neither black nor people.

The Favourite was far better.

it's okay user. awards season is over. you don't have to pretend to like it anymore.

The first is presented almost as a biblical creation story, detailing the sailing voyage of the first fleet of ancient religious civilization across a vast void towards a supposed new land. The next takes place long during the pioneering days of this new land and is told as a sort of light-hearted tale from folklore about a swordsman who's reputation proceeds him, and it is clear that a lot of the story is embellished i.e. Billy The Kid. The third is set during the dying days of magic, and is a personal story from the storyteller's past about hunting down a desperate, insane sorcerer (the practice of which has been outlawed) who seeks refuge with the last native tribe and becomes a sort of demi-God messiah figure to these people. The overarching theme is about how perception and belief can manifest as real truths, which is seen as "magic" by the settlers, sort of like the riddle of steel in Conan.

I actually started Cloud Atlas at the start of the year, but I dropped it for Blood Meridian which has a lot of themes I'd like to explore.

Favourite was nice with good music and sets but forgettable. I saw Buster right when it came out and still remember it freshly.

I guess Sharktale has to be the best movie in the world then, because I remember every scene

I liked Hail Caesar but it had literally no tension. None at all. That's the one thing the Coens are renowned for, even. Being peak comfy isn't enough to make a movie superlative

I actually meant this sound (very glad this clip was uploaded to YouTube):
skip to 0:54
youtube.com/watch?v=o9guyPNZglE

Then re-watch the brief sequence I was talking about in my post. It's the same recording.

Just found out after a quick search that they have only with worked one sound editor, one Skip Lievsay, for all of their films. So maybe this is something that he randomly puts in there as a little Easter egg in all of their movies just to amuse himself

Immediately.

>i stopped reading cloud atlas because other books exist
user i'm going to tell you right now
you will never be a good writer

I'll get back to it next, I just started Blood Meridian around the same time and found it more immediately engaging.

Mr. Pocket was the got darn pocket of gold he dug up. Stop yer meme'n.

literal brainlet

no horses, they'll go back for it I reckon

awful post

nobody can

I really hope you realize the segments all have a different visual style...
Buster is 50s, PanShot ist Italo, Mr Pocket is 70s Grizzly dude... the Coens did a fucking great job at directing I reckon...

>dude sitting with a green screen behind him
