Where we at with the Fargo?

Where we at with the Fargo? In my opinion as close to a perfect movie as can be.

I'm pretty sure 90% of the people here like if not love it.

Margie wanted Mike Yanagita’s 4 inches of rice noodle.

Great movie. Season 1 of the show was one of the best TV series ever. Seasons 2 was good but a considerable drop-off from the first, but then it was a hard act to follow. I liked season 3. Season 4 I quit after the first episode.

Why almost every director, their early stuff that launches them always better than their later stuff? What is it about Hollywood that dulls your talent instead of improves it? Early Coen brothers were great...But now they make shit like Dont Look Up.

Same for most any other director.

They didn't make Don't Look Up but I think it has to do with losing that eagerness of wanting to make it and working their ass off to bring something new and fresh to get noticed. Once they "make it" they lose that goal and the drive that goes along with it.

I like it but something keeps me from loving it. Despite being very funny and beautifully made, it's a depressing movie for me.

It's great. I can't be bothered to rewatch it.

Re-watching season 4. I gotta say I don’t hate it. Definitely the weakest of the 4 seasons and it’s laughable to imagine a black gang going against a mafia family. But I found it intriguing that despite one token Jew, the mob family consisted of actors from Italy, and not the typical Sopranos rejects. I also enjoyed Olyphant and Huston.

Siskel wrote how interesting it was that Marge stayed pregnant through the end of the movie. Usually, you have a pregnant woman on screen for a hectic giving birth scene - like a rush to the hospital, or she feels contractions right when she's confronting the bad guy. But Fargo was better for not doing that.

Great movie. The first two seasons of the TV show were perfect too but man did they fuck that up with three and four. This japanese film which is tangentially related to Fargo is good too
