That previous entry was nowhere near done, I left before it was finished and I have reason to believe my sister posted it. The ending before I left stated "I am Vicki durrr", and it was deleted in favor of "I AM VICKI I AM STUPID HAHAHA!!!!!! durr", similar in flavor, but still a very different thing. Accusations will be leveled upon her return.

I dunno, I liked 'No Country For Old Men'. Mostly because it made me want to die inside. I like movies that make me feel awful about the world, and that was certainly one of them. I also judge a movie by how many times it makes my girlfriend cling on t my out of sheer fright. For that factor alone, 'No Country For Old Men' was quite good. Every single time Mop-Top gruesomely took someone out, or hell, even appeared on screen...*clutch!*

The ended was so completely unsatisfactory, that I couldn't help but love it. I wanted Mop-Top to die. I wanted the sheriff to have his last hurrah. None of this happened, and to top it off, Texan sold out his wife...or, rather, his wife didn't listen and went back home, which was stupid of her, and Texan tried to get the money and the girl, but failed.

Nothing I wanted to happen happened, and to that, I think the Cohen brother deserve an Oscar for being assholes like that..

I could make unsatisfactory movies too. I bet you'd like them as well.

My movie would star a down on his luck trapper who accidentally kills a baby moose but plans on selling its body in Asia as a verility enhancement. The rest of the movie is about how the eeriliy obsessive moose momma is out to get her baby's body back, and she's not stopping for anything. Meanwhile, a forest ranger haunted by his past inability to prevent poaching tries to help save the trapper in some sort of twisted logic.

There will be exciting chase scenes, tramplings and gorings, your girlfriend will be like a tourniquet. In the end, the moose will sail off in a yacht, the poacher will drown in an ice fishing accident and the ranger will eat pie.

Can I have an Oscar? It can sit next to my 1993 T-ball trophy.

Okay.

After seeing 'There Will Be Blood', I can honestly say it was one of the most horrifying films I've ever seen. Maybe I'm just more drawn to insane awful men who do terrible things to achieve no sense of satisfaction within their own miserable lives, but Jeeeeze. Daniel Plainview was eeeevil.

There wasn't a lot of blood. But I was alright with that. Because the bits there were, especially at the end, were mortifying enough. The whole movie again, made me feel awful and like this world should just come to an end, which endeared me to it even more.

Honestly, I went home and drank almost a pint of Jack Daniels just to make the pain go away.

It it wrong that after reading your review I immediately thought,
"I'm in ur oilfields, drinkin ur milkshake"?

I liked "No Country" until that last bit with Tommy Lee Jones. It would have ended perfectly if they just had Javier Bardem walking away, cue credits. And you do see Brolin's body, you just missed it.
