Sure, No Country for Old Men was pretty good, but their last two comedies had as many laughs as the Nuremberg trials, so I’m kinda worried.
Sidebar: Joel and Ethan Coen put the line, “Where’s the money?” in like every film they make. How typically Jewish.
So this preview is billed as a red band trailer. The red band trailer thing is all the rage right now. Are we so deprived of sex and violence that we need it in our movie trailers too? At any rate, the raciest thing in the preview is a vague reference to George Clooney not fucking Tilda Swinton in the ass. And I think someone says “shit” once. If this thing is rated R, should’t we get to see a nipple or something? I mean, by law?
Brad Pitt plays a some kind of gym / personal trainer guy who finds a CIA CD. He and Francis McDormand blackmail John Malkovich, who’s married to Tilda Swinton, who Clooney’s fucking, but not in the ass. Matt Damon is apparently not in this movie, but the guy from Oz is, and so is that bald guy who looks kind of familiar for some reason, maybe I just see him at the bank sometimes. Violence ensues. Humor doesn’t.
Ok, Brad Pitt looks kind of funny. I think the Coen Brothers wanted to give Pitt a ridiculously bad haircut, after all the success they had doing the same to Javier Bardem. But because it’s Brad Pitt, it actually looks pretty cool. In fact, I’m getting my hair done to look like that right now.
I have a real man crush on Clooney.
I try not to see Clooney films, because I walk around for weeks afterward pretending to talk like him. Even after I saw that piece of shit Michael Clayton, I found myself saying random words extra loud and staring at people threateningly, jerking my shoulder back. I think people thought I had turret’s.
Man, I hope this movie doesn’t suck.
