I mean when you think about it the plan doesn't make any sense. If Chuck freaked out without going on an unrelated rant about Jimmy, it would just look like Jimmy is harassaing his mentally ill brother

This is the first time I've ever been on this side of an argument but almost everything I've read about this movie being racist/sexist/homophobic or disposable pandering Oscar bait is among the worst cultural and art criticism I've ever seen in my life and it's not just because I disagree. I understand if this movie…

I like Aziz but they absolutely nailed how lame he was on that roast.

The Shark tank stuff always fucking killed me

He's the best. And many of his controversial takes arent even that controversial, Neil Degrasse Tyson and Bill Nye suck and the Harry Potter movies are mediocre. However I like Force Awakens and Disneyland is better than Disneyworld.

Carrey is an unbelievable actor and his comic timing is insane. Even in something like Liar Liar which is sappy and formulaic and dumb, his performance is so good that he elevates the whole thing into something incredibly watchable.

Sorry I misunderstood your desperately meandering irony. None of their albums have been remotely as sonically dense as this. In Rainbows sounds flat and tinny compared to this. Above all, the songs are all really good. Calling any of their albums "market tested" is laughable. They've always written pop songs,…

These are all straightforward, mostly guitar or piano songs. Sorry you're looking for a non-rock band to release a rock record.

Speaking of which, this album is 50 times better than Hail to the Thief

Nah this is an A easily. I know were supposed to be over hip bands 30 years into their career but every track on this record is great.

Of course they are

Don't want to overreact but this is a fucking masterpiece and their best in 16 years

Yes, absolutely love that scene.

Also, as a Serious Man is my favorite from them, it always kind of annoys me how people keep on talking about how the movie is some declarative statement about the world being meaningless or whatever.

What I got from that former scene is that what Hollywood fails to portray and what people tend to forget is the most important element… faith. And I guess the Future was just a shot at elitism.

Yep exactly. They poke fun at idelogies but to them, "believing in nothing" is the most laughable thing of all

Yeah the Goys teeth scene basically sums up existence. Even in that scene where there clearly is some sign from God, what it amounts to is "helping others? couldnt hurt". And what really happened? "who cares?"

Coens arent nihilists or mean spirited at their core, they step beyond that and become skeptical of that more than anything. And yeah they do have a genuine love for honest average hardworking and/or spiritual people. Everythings funny and silly but not everyone is a joke. But anyway:

I always picked the thimble because it represents the struggle of the working man. Plus its just cute.

Yep. Feel the same about spiritual beliefs whether they be religious or vague or an absence of. Its like do you really want to sit around and watch movies about how amazing or smart you are compared to the sheeple? Spare me. I'm a bit of a self-loather though so the idea of having a monopoly on intelligence or…
