Eh. I'm not going to get into this argument. Your point has been made and argued. I disagree. I think the ending to NCFOM was pitch perfect.

But I'm good with films that make me think and emote. I'm a huge fan of films that piss me off or make me cry. I don't watch movies as a form of escapism. Sometimes that's all it's meant to be, other times it's meant to be something more. Those are the films that made me want to make my own.

I have no trouble with "thinking" or "emoting" (who the **** uses that word?) at the movies. I don't need a happy ending. A good tragedy is fine by me. I loved the deeply ****ed-up ending of The Mist, which differed greatly from the end of the short story. But I want the ending of a movie to ****ING MAKE SENSE. Shouldn't be too much to ask.

I thought the ending to NCFOM did make sense. In fact, in the context of the film, I think it makes perfect sense, and frankly I think I'd have been disappointed if it ended any differently.

And I have no idea who uses the word emote. I don't think I wrote that sentence.

Just so I understand you. You completely understand the meaning of the ending and the rationale underlying it, but it's also completely random shit that doesn't make any sense at all.

It's part of the whole "you can't see what's coming" theme voiced by the chick at the motel. Even Chigurh is subject to fate, the difference is his response, to assess what's immediately needed to survive and plod on inexorably. Further, it show that, while Chigurh fancies himself as fate embodied, he has no choice but to impose the consequences of his coin tosses, real fate is still out there meting out it's own consequences.
