Actually much prefer the sequel. Gervais, Tina Fey, Trejo & Liotta >>> Segal and Amy Adams

Come the year end polls can one of the mods make sure this post is included in Bunz's own Faggot Ass Carl poll plz?

The "Am I a man or a muppet" song alone obliterates Gervais' entire career, and the sequel was little more than a series of celeb cameos stitched together.

Dude. I like how you conveniently deleted this part of my post noting that this Walter muppet is the worst Henson-creation ever made and would actually be a nominee for my faggot-ass Carl award for most annoying characters if it wasn't a TV-only poll.
The sequel is a vast improvement by sheer exclusion.

Good call on "The act of killing". I'd also add "Squid and the whale" though I'd say that more a personal fave than a "best movie of the 2000's" kinda deal.

If I recall correctly, Ithe Dogginz was a big fan of Squid and the Whale.

Speaking of "big fans" (

), I should add Big Fan.

Willem Dafoe's butt cheeks do not serve any purpose that relates to modern cinema.

The 1970s were probably better, but it's all subjective.

The Proposition is the cinematic equivalent of a Cormac McCarthy novel without all the shitty writing.

drizzle · Post by **drizzle** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 2:43 pm

Well The Proposition is LIKE a cinematic equivalent of a C-Mack novel

No Country actually IS a cinematic equivalent of a C-Mack novel

Tweak Da Leak · Post by **Tweak Da Leak** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 2:48 pm

So you agree that The Proposition is leagues ahead of No Country in terms of script

drizzle · Post by **drizzle** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 2:49 pm

Better constructed story maybe but No Country is the better movie overall

Tommy Bunz · Post by **Tommy Bunz** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 3:37 pm

Would love to see either Hillcoat or the Coen's make an attempt at adapting Blood Meridian.

drizzle · Post by **drizzle** » Thu Oct 30, 2014 4:42 pm

For that one I'd actually prefer Hillcoat. Coens never really go in for the gory details and I don't think the adaptation could work without it. Like I can't really see Coens shooting the dead baby tree.

Left field idea, but Miike (in 13 assassins/harakiri mode) might be a really inspired choice for it.

Word, even Tropa De Elite 2 is better than City of God.
