    I watched his biography and a lot of his friends and family think that movie is what made him more depressed, which in turn lead him further down the dark path...Apparently he was very self conscious(could have fooled me:dunno:) and was not happy with how that movie made him look(again, :scratch:).

    It's very unfortunate, because I thought that movie was awesome.

    Man, I miss that guy.

    Ya I love all his movies and shows until that came out. It was pretty much a waste of his awesome talent. "Almost Heroes" is by far my favorite lol

    The Big Lebowski, like most other Cohen brothers films, I find incredibly entertaining but I have no idea why. I've watched TBL at least 30 times and Oh Brother Where Art Thou at least 75. Can't explain it, they just never get old for me.

    OBWAT is my second favorite Coen Brother's movie and also one of my favorite movies of all time...A lot of their movies are though.

    Where are my No Country fans at?

    Beverly Hills Ninja was pure garbage but I loved it & the part in bold made me laugh pretty hard, I've watched his bio a few times and I miss that guy too.

    I loved the Big Lebowksi, amazing movie. I really enjoyed No Country for Old Men, as well as Fargo. Haven't seen O.B.W.A.T. though, need to look into that one.

    Do you see what happens Larry?

    A huge fan of the store told in the three mentioned Coen brothers films... No Country is amazing. I still need to ready the book.

    The they are very similar...So much so that you I'd actually recommend reading other books on your list first.

    The only "significant" different is the ending and when I say "ending" don't think to deep into it...Nothing substantial changes, but I won't ruin it for you since you plan on reading it.

    A few minor characters are removed from the movie as well, but they don't matter.

    Are you serious?!?! You need to see that ASAP.

    Walter definitely steals the show, IMO.

    I love No Country for Old Men. I've never seen The Big Lebowski, though. I'll watch it tomorrow and get back to you guys.

    And as for Chris Farley, this is my favorite SNL skit-

    Oh I love Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? Great movie!

    I just watched the trailer for No Country for Old Men, and I think I will have to see that one too, it looks to be very good.

    But I just don't see how the same guys that produced these movies could've produced The Big Lebowski, unless they were on an epic high during the whole thing...

    And whenever I see "Have a drink", I automatically assume one means an alcoholic drink.

    You must watch ALL of the Coen brothers films.

    Don't forget:
    Raising Arizona
    Lady Killers
    Fargo
    Burn After Reading
    True Grit
    No Country for Old Men

    These are all great films. The last two are not comedies but very good.
    Personally, I love Lady Killers. Burn After Reading made me laugh out loud.
