I gotta say....I should really buy some of their movies on DVD, I have NONE :(
And out of the 11 movies they've made, I've only seen 4 (yeah, I know I suck)

I've seen...

The Hudsucker Proxy: Probably MY favorite Coen Bros. movie, I love everything about it :up:

The Big Lebowski: According to my dear friend Drakon, I must have been in a really bad mood when I saw it, cause I didn't find it funny, but that was some time ago, so I can't wait to watch it for the 2nd. time.

The Ladykillers: YES, I LOVED IT :mad:

O Brother, where art thou?: Hahaha this is awesome, I love it too.

Ugh, and the worst part is that there are some very decent-to-great DVD editions of these movies, so I'll get to it right away.

Anyways, what do you guys think about the Coen movies? What are your favorites? Why?

EDIT: I'm actually surprised I haven't seen Miller's Crossing, I mean, it's about Gangsters, and I love Gangster movies :confused:
 
The only film I've seen from them is The Big Lebowski and I love it! :up:

I actually had The Dude as my avvy for quite some time.
 
I've been a fan of Raising Arizona since I first saw it in 87.

I didn't see The Hudsucker Proxy until I was in college, and it was pretty good.

The Big Lebowski is a damn classic.

I still have to see O Brother Where Art Thou, Barton Fink, and Miller's Crossing

I refuse to see the remake of The Ladykillers. I'll stick with the original
 
I've only seen O Brother Where Art Thou, Intolerable Cruelity, and The Ladykillers, and they were all pretty good. :)

I've yet to see Big Lebowski and The Man Who Wasn't There, but they're on my "must-see" list.
 
Big Lebowski

Though I loved the cinematography of Oh Brother
 
Miller's Crossing is one of the few movies that gets better each time I watch it.
 
Miller's Crossing. You CANNOT call yourself a Coen fan if you have not seen it. I am serious. It's in my top 25 best movies of all time. Terrific direction, acting, and especially the dialogue. There is no excuse in not seeing it soon. If not, you are really missing out.

I did not like The Ladykillers though. Terribly unfunny and all around insulting. Intolerable Cruelty is ok, but they need to get back to doing what they know best.

Second best is Fargo, and third is Big Lebowski. Barton Fink and Oh Brother are also great.
 
Fargo (Though I also loved Big Lebowski and O Brother... to death)
 
My top 3,I haven't seen the others.

Raising Arizona
Fargo
The Big Lebowski
 
The Big Lebowski followed by O Brother Where Art Thou.
 
The Big Lebowski is just like.... the pinnacle. ;)

Almost all of their other movies kick huge amounts of ass, but none of them come close to the greatness of Lebowski and the Dude.... the whole thing is just an undeniable classic.
 
Well they've done such great work. Raising Helen and good ol' The Big Lewbowski is classic. Intolerable Creulty is very good and Fargo is all right, but overrated.

However, their best movie by far is O Brother, Where ARt Thou? This is probably one of the best movies ever made and is more brilliant every time I watch it though.
