Coens!!!

Everyone likes the Coen brothers! Even the people I've met with a strange, seething hatred of No Country for Old Men dug on Fargo. Here's the trailer for their latest, A Serious Man.

It's weird.



Any ideas what it's about? And yet, it looks amazing. An ad for a film which sets up a tone but gives away almost nothing. Amazing!

Here's hoping copyright claims don't get this one removed, like what happened with the Saw goddamn VI trailer I put up. I understand a studio wanting to protect their property - even though copyright laws need big overhauls to fit in with the digital age - but taking down a fucking advertisment? For your film? It's a fucking ad! Ordering its removal means less publicity! You know, the thing the ad was designed to create? Why not bad people from saying the film's title for fear it might breach your intellectual property rights? See how that goes down.

Meanwhile I was going to write about Channel 10's new show The 7pm Project, which is a comedy panel show where the brave decision was made to load the cast with mostly non-comedians, but it was too easy a target even for me, and I felt bad.

That said, I would advise checking out the video page to check out the interview of Sienna Miller and Rachel Nichols. It's the worst-shot interview, possibly, ever. It looks like the camera operator was white water rafting while filming.

Back soon with Bruno and Drag Me to Hell reviews!
