[MOVIE]True Grit

Wow, I want it now.

 

Looks like a good movie.

 

It's only fitting that the Dude would replace the Duke.

Seriously though, Jeff Bridges is my favorite actor, but he'll never fill the boots of John Wayne. The Duke never seemed to care how many bad movies he made, which was a shame considering how damn good he could be when he put his mind to it. In True Grit, he put his mind to it, in a big way.

 

I like it. Sort of reminds me of "Unforgiven"...

 

If the Coen Brothers make it I'm there.

 

Just remember though: this is an adaptation of the book.......not an adaptation of another movie that was an entirely different adaptation of the book.

And it has Jeff Bridges

and Josh Brolin and Matt Damon and Barry Pepper

And it's the Cohen brothers

Count me in.

 

awesome. i havent seen a great western in a long long time.

3:10 to yuma was good, but not great in my opinion. cant think of any others.

The movie is so much better than that preview.

 

well this'll be one of the best movies of the year.

 

Barry Pepper is so, so underutilized. He's fantastic, and I'm glad he's hooking on with the Coens for this one.

 

the assassination of jesse james by the coward bill ford

great movie

 

Looks good. Alert me when the Coen's make Blood Meridian...into an X-rated film.

 

Agreed, throughly underappreciated in my opinion.

 

Agreed, great movie. Don't know why nobody seemed to like it.

 

Gritty western, Jeff Bridges, link to the Duke, Coen Bros.

All I need to know.

This looks awesome.

 

I loved it. It was slow-paced, and that may have , but I think the story is that now Westerns just don't sell that well any more. It's a shame, because they are some of the best films ever made.
