But, then there are some that I really don't like so much... like The Big Lebowski, for example.

I don't know... somehow I'm skeptical about this one based on the previews.

"Raising Arizona" makes me laugh so hard! The babies are great. Crying Ed / Angry Ed-- hilarious. The jailbird brothers -- lol. I love that movie.

ifyoucantfixit:


     My hubby really wants to see this movie...I have a problem with these kinds of manipulative killer types.
I have trouble with watching them in a movie..But I will go and see it for his benefit...I love tommy Lee Jones.
But the subject matter is a bit out of my comfort zone.   I guess i am a bit of a wooss when it comes to
violence.  its odd that I watched Rendition, and Jesse James, and had no problems,,but I am just getting
odd vibes about this one..
      Please report back, and let me know how it was...may take going easier... :-\

This movie will probably be brilliant, but the subject matter is not my cup of tea.  I'll pass, though I thought Fargo was excellent, Raising Arizona was very funny and I laughed so hard during The Big Lebowski I actually made no sound, I thought it so hysterical.

I saw the previews for this when I went to see Lust,Caution over last weekend. I'm going to see it, definitely, but it hasn't gotten here yet. It doesn't strike me, from what I saw on the screen, as a blood and guts type of movie, or I wouldn't be interested. The way this guy is killing people seems to be very calm and quiet, for the most part. Maybe I'm way off base here, because I'm basing this on the preview, but it seems that the tension takes higher precedence than the blood.

It's got to be better than Lust, Caution!

Thank you for the trailer, sfericsf.   Looks great!   

I know it will be hard to watch and I might have to close my eyes now and then.   I will still do it though.
