He called him "some black guy." As far as 4chan vernacular goes, that's pretty non-offensive. Cool your jets, hothead.
Oh George, not the livestock
>>70655738
It wasn't as forced as you think. I used to know an old dude in Alabama that sounded exactly like this sumbitch.

I love this setting, the lightly mythical heightened reality version of the American South that saw the adventures of Tom Sawyer. I'd love to see more stories set in this landscape.

Come on man.
>>70659410
The Coen Brothers themselves said they never read the Odyssey, and it shows because they really are nothing alike besides cursory similarities. This isn't really a bad thing though necessarily, as the Odyssey is a book that you need to study in depth in order to understand, and the movie stands on it's own as a story.
>>70656159
>Robert Johnson
>some black guy
>>70659222
>>70659333
this was a really good movie
>>70659525
Greek myths are understood to be within in the same landscape, set vast spans of time from one another. The American South as a mythical landscape would naturally have the same rules
>>70659527
That's why there was no based Telemachus
>>70659527
Sounds like it's more of a classic/epic styled story than only being based off the odyssey.
I SEEN EM FIRST!
Damn! We're in a tight spot!
>>70659663
Yeah, Oh Brother Where Art Thou just uses similar mythical archetypes as the Odyssey, like the Cyclops and the Sirens.
>>70659663
Not necessarily, there are connections such as the suitors, visiting the land of the dead, the sirens, and the cyclops, but the movie isn't related to the Odyssey on a deeper level than that. It's an original story otherwise

When I was about 10 my mom would play this soundtrack as she forced me and my siblings to clean this house.
So here we are a bunch of white slave children singing chain gang songs as we wiped the floors.
Didn't know my mom was that based, really.

Likely, unless the recording conditions (wind & shit) were lousy. Chris King (the actor) is actually a musician.

I had to edit together a mini-documentary about my high school and at the last minute the only CD in the media lab was the soundtrack to Oh Brother Where Art Thou? to that ended up being the soundtrack.
My media teacher didn't care for it, he said the music was depressing.

Only movie that I bear the presence of George Clooney because it is a very comfortable, easy going tale.
But George Clooney is still a humongous faggot and I wish someone else had gotten that part
>>70660219
I don't know why the rights to that sound are apparently so hard to get. Pretty hard to find and doesn't appear on any of the movie's soundtrack releases.
>>70664108
I don't find "Big Rock Candy Mountain" depressing, but learning what it's supposedly about really made me hear it in a different way.

I remember it being a piece of wank in the fashion of one Synechdoche, NY- and nearly as dull and smarmy. In my defense, I haven't watched in ages, too, so it might be elsewhere on that list.

didn't like it
>>70663577
those aren't even the best shots from the movie
>>70666468
But why? It's essentially O Brother but in the 60s and with feels instead of comedy.
>>70664190
nah this is actually the only time Clooney was good in a Coens movie. he was cast perfectly. who can you think of that could've delivered those lines better?
>>70664859
damn fine film and perfectly fine performance
>>70666541
didn't feel the feels. I also am not a fan of oscar issac.
>>70666600
Fair enough.
>>70665193
I grew up watching the coens, so "coen-lite" movies like llewyn davis and serious man dont really do it for me after how earth shattering films like lebowski and miller's crossing were at the time
>>70659527
>the Odyssey is a book that you need to study in depth in order to understand
Nah, I've seen the Armand Assante movie and I think I pretty much got it.
>>70665486
Clooney delivered these lines fucking perfectly. it's probably why he became their go-to for doofus characters. too bad those movies are shit.

felt generic and empty. I wasn't emotionally attached to any of the characters because they were all such self absorbed shits, which may have been intentional, but theres no reason shitty people cant be entertaining characters.
the story wasn't interesting, dramatic, tense or funny. it felt like watching nothing. it didn't feel like the 60s, either. It just felt like they filmed in old parts of new York on cloudy days. it didn't capture any kind of atmosphere or build a world the way their greats do.
>>70666806
this is a better explanation then mine. just add in i think oscar issac is overrated and that is how i feel.
>>70666806
Yeah I guess it might be a shitshow if you don't manage to connect with the titular bloke. I still think it's their most honest and heartfelt outing but then I am the guy putting it at the top.
Funny tho
>I wasn't emotionally attached to any of the characters because they were all such self absorbed shits
Is exactly the criticism I level at Burn After Reading to an extent that I find myself unable to even be amused (CIA guys at the end scene exempt) and
>it felt like watching nothing
is a perfect way to describe A Serious Man IMO.
