Didnt think much of it to be honest. Not really a Coen Bros fan though.

Personally, I can't wait for the Quentin Tarantino/John Woo remake of the Ingmar Bergman classic, The Silence.

hopefully they can bring some of the qualities from No Country for Old Men to a proper western and not just make another Wyatt Earp or Tombstone
I reckon Matt Damon could come out of this well - good to see him playing a different role

that Guardian article is awful

Trailer looks good, will be watching this soon I hope.. I'm not usually a big fan of the Coen brothers for some reason, but loved Fargo so they're not completely lost on me!

G/f is so unhappy about them remaking it, but on watching the trailer I'm quite up for it

My dad took me to see the original with John Wayne when it was released 40+ years ago. Looking forward to this as I do like the Coen bros work. This will be closer to the original novel I understand.

cant wait...

highlight of my christmas was watching this with my 2 year old and him saying 'bloody hell, that horse is galloping fast...'

0/10 for swearing, but 10/10 for good contextual use of swear words... so proud!

I've just seen it, I wont venture into details or even offer an opinion for fear of spoiling it for you.

I'd certainly watch it, I'm interested to find out what others think.

I love westerns, and am generally keen on the Coens. Looking forward to it very much. 🙂

Thought it was ok, Bridges does a great job, even Daemon is not bad and the wee lass is excellent, not a patch on the original though.

The original [i]is[/i] great - I suppose I just love the Coen take on things (except for their "in-between" films).
