Cut Fraz some slack, he hasn't been the same since the 65 Newport Folk Festival.
Went for some troubador wisdom, got some jive boogity-woogity electrified shit.

The fact that you posted this proves your lack of facility with regards to logic or the mechanics of establishing points.
That, and the fact that you're not self-aware enough to be embarassed that you didn't get a movie capable of being comprehended and appreciated even by a spraytan douchebag clubboi.

The best ending would have been to have Bell walk into a room and see this:

It makes you wonder what it says about you that you wanted, needed, the ending you expected, rather than the one you got.

AND IT STILL ****ING SUCKS. But if painting yourself as Gentile King Of The Arts because this steaming pile of shit sang to your soul makes you feel better about yourself, by all means, carry on. |

You know what the problem with NCFOM is? The Coen bros did too good a job of making a tight, taunt little thriller for the 1st 1 hour 45 minutes. IM serious, they did. They should have just said, the heck with the book, lets change this crap and finished things out to a natural conclusion. They set everyone up. If they would have done a crappy or even average job with that, nobody would have given a sh*t about the crappy ending.

I for one loved No Country. It pretty much followed the book 100% and was great IMO. To each their own though

I did like the movie. (Wait... I suppose I should call it a "film") The intense hype surrounding it, made it a little underwhelming... that's all.
That said, the whole "If you didn't like it, you're just a moron who doesn't understand or appreciate art" arguement is ****ing obnoxious. Get over yourself. Not everyone is going to enjoy the same things you do. |

LOL That I needed the ending? Tell me what it says about you the need to cram the "that's the way life is" ending down my throat and then insult me because I thought it sucked. Newsflash, I don't watch a movie to dwell on realty, I watch it as a release from it. That I didn't like the ending says nothing about me as a person. The fact that you're bombarding me with your dime store psychology and using it as some sort of an ink blot test says tons about you. |

I am not stupid but I am not pompous either. I hated the ending.
"That will do pig, that will do" was much better. |
