I've yet to see a topic about this movie, and decided that there should be one. Bwah. I'd say that this is probably the most under-rated movie out there. Such wonderful comedy... "you let Mrs. Eisenhower down!" The soundtrack is fantastic as well.

Agreed. Definitely one of the best Coen flicks even though it's often forgotten.

Why does everybody hate this one anyway?

I've never heard of a person who hated this movie. It's absolutely brilliant.

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooo Eagles!"

Perhaps I will, too. But fuck, I didn't see ANYTHING good in O Brother. Even that yokel soundtrack sucked.

You know, I remember seeing the previews for that movie, and thinking, "That looks really good!" but I never went and saw it. Now I can't even remember who's in it or what it's about.

Maybe it would've done better if it didn't have such a shitty title.

Quite true, though. The first time I watched it I was afraid my parents would come in and ask what I was watching, and I'd have to utter those dirty words. I just got back from MUNCIE, INDIANA, though. For real.

Before I knew it was a Coen brothers movie I wasn't interested. I'd have to say it's one of their best though. It's beautifully filmed. And Jennifer Jason Leigh's performance is fucking astounding.

Its on Comedy Central right now. Normally that would lead me to believe its horrible but since I trust you guys I'll reserve judgement. It seems ok so far.
