Yeah, but now you have that moment when you HAVE to pause the movie to check IMDB, to the annoyance of the poor schlubs trying to watch with you.

I think you're right about Burn After Reading, though I didn't previously see that as the reason I didn't like the movie. Don't remember enough about A Serious Man to say if that rings true there, too.

Not gonna argue with any of those choices, but I think you need to reconsider a half-breed misanthropic anti-hero.
