New Coen Bros Movie!!!: "A Serious Man" - Blu-ray Forum

Riff Magnum · 10-01-2009, 10:12 PM

Can't find any info on this site and there's very little info about this movie on the rest of the web. Apparently it opens TOMORROW!!, but no theater near me seems to be carrying it. Is this a New York, L.A. thing till it gets wider release?

The few reviews of it are stellar and the preview looks great.
Looks like most of the Coen regulars are missing from the cast.
WHAT'S GOING ON!!!

Here's the link to the films official website: http://www.filminfocus.com/focusfeat.../a_serious_man

apparently it is a limited initial release.

tilapiah6 · 10-01-2009, 10:24 PM

Wow. This came out of nowhere.

Riff Magnum · 10-01-2009, 10:30 PM

Tell me about it. I'm very disappointed in myself and bluray.com as a whole.

Oh well, the actresses that are hot after 22, but lose their looks at 28 thread is going strong and that's all that matters.

I'm I the only one that's totally creeped out by those threads?! It doesn't help that the two primary posters are both in their mid-teens. Feels like a bunch of dudes buying Playboys for the kids at the Mini-Mart circa 1981. Creep city.

I saw the trailer about a month ago and was hooked, but again, a limited release, so I won't see it unless they have a wider release eventually.

Those threads are lame city and i'm surprised they're allowed to exist in the first place.

You over think things.

There are a couple of threads about this one already. One of them here.

Edit: Deads3t, you beat me to it; I need faster fingers. At least I found the good thread.

I was just about to put that one up. Dead put a newer thread from what it looks like on there.

Ok, so again the search engine on this site has failed me miserably. I wonder sometimes why it's even there.

Kaiju · 10-02-2009, 02:58 AM

I really want to see this but unfortunately I'll probably have to wait till Blu-ray

Maybe it'll get a wider release later on. If not, I'll have to wait too..

There's a ton of info on it and I recently started a thread that alarmingly got zero replies.
https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...t=serious+coen

As you point out, the film is already in theaters. Would some of you in LA, New York or Minneopolis (?) go check it out and report back?

I'm psyched about this. Also looking forward to the next Coen bros production, a remake of True Grit that is rumored to star Jeff Bridges in the John Wayne role.

silversnake · 10-05-2009, 05:36 PM

the trailer was "meh" but I've always loved the Coen Brothers movie so I know i'll go see it.

Gremal · 10-05-2009, 05:42 PM

Most people:
first time they see a Coens' film: meh
second time: wow
third time: cult classic

tiger roach · 10-05-2009, 05:45 PM

Will definitely see this one.
