‘A Serious Man’ Trailer is Seriously Funny
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iggyFPls4w
Coen brothers comedy is usually hit or miss for me. I loved Fargo, hated The Ladykillers. I loved O Brother Where Art Thou, hated Burn After Reading. I could go either way on Lebowski. In any case, the latest trailer has dropped for the next film I didn’t even know they were making, A Serious Man.
There’s not much to go on, other than the movie is about a nerdy Jewish guy whose life sucks. Doesn’t sound like it’d be that interesting, but the Coens sure know how to make one hell of a trailer.
Also, I think it’s fine to list like two of your hits in a trailer “From the directors of…” But like, seven? Come on, you’re just being dicks now.

This movie does look good and I’ve generally liked everything the Coen Brothers have done. Burn After Reading wasn’t the best film, but I did enjoy it.
Didn’t really care for the Big Lebowski eh? Is it one of those too much hype situations? Just curious as this is one my all time favorites.
Maybe I need to watch it again. It’s been awhile.
O.K, I’ll wait…
Lebowski is about as re-watchable as a movie can be.
I can re watch the scene where Goodman beats the crap out of the kid’s car…which turns out to be the neighbor’s car.
