no
Yes.

i don't knowwwww, can you repeat the dead Black personrrrr?
Yes, I see you clearly, you fricking wetback spic! Are you blind? Get a fricking haircut if you want to be taken seriously.
He has the same hairstyle as the Huntsman from Snow White. Likely an intentional choice, as he spent most of the movie hunting people.
Tolkien strikes again
Tolkien didn't write Snow White, moron.
Talking about No Country For Old Men moron.
Tolkien wrote No Country for Old Men? The frick?
It was impressive he knew exactly what 80s Texas would be like in the 50s
Truly ahead of his time
Don't Forget that His hack-naming shenanigans also carried on to his American West Epic, Blood Meridian.
>Character is a Child of 14 years age
>Names him, "The Kid"
He's only 14 years old? WTF
this. if you're gonna die might as well insult the fricker
maybe
can you repeat the question
You're not the boss of me now
You're not so big...
UUUU
Who said that?
With no hesitation and maximum speed, punch him in the throat and follow through with your fist.
and cut him in half with your katana right?
No, with my fist.
and fist his shit crusted beanhole right?
Shit-crusted? Have you never heard of wiping?
yeah...heard about it through my wax-packed ear flaps, huh?
You intend to wipe a hitman's beanhole before fisting him?
"I've never seen a thing in my fricking life"
"No. I am making an oath to you and will falter for no man. I'm your Rock of Gibraltar."
I wouldn't say anything. I would listen. Which is what nobo-ACK!
>Sir, I ain't at liberty to give out no information
It's that simple
we like to think we would talk him out of it but if it's a mentally ill murder it's just random
He gets his jollies from people trying to talk him out of killing them.
Yeah, in the book when he goes to kill the wife, there's a whole other half of the conversation that isn't present in the movie. After she says the coin has no say in it and it's just him, he reiterates that the reason he's there in the first place is to kill her, which makes the wife pick heads. It comes up tails and scene ends there.
That's an improvement over the book then, I think the idea of someone just completely refusing to play his game adds a lot to the movie.
The thing is that it's not a game, it's simply a last chance for you to live. He can't willingly let you go after he's promised to himself or others that he's going to kill you, so he decides that if fate wills it, you deserve to live. It doesn't matter to him if you call it or not, the only person that would matter to is you.
its a brilliant moment of characterization for the wifey as well
Chigur is meant to be someone who has convinced themselves they're above fate and rules, but has constructed an elaborate set of rules for himself that he can't avoid. He's in a prison of his own making.
In the book he's basically a demon. He's basically 'summoned' to the events that Moss comes across. We never find out who he works for, although it's probable that it's someone high up the chain on the american side of the drug deal. The movie makes it look like he goes rogue, but he doesn't. He's always working for some higher, unseen entity.
Correct, though I wonder if leaving all those bodies around would only make the situation worse not better? And can you imagine working for a firm where if some low level deal goes south everyone in middle management gets wiped out? Yikes.
there's a part at the end of the book where he presents the money to someone as basically a job application, but it's been years since i read the book and can't remember the details there
>Have millions of dollars
>Better give it away to slave at some job
I don't know, flip a coin.
i-i can't a gave it to a guy.
I would just act like I didn't give a frick from minute 1 and act like a tired depressed person.
'oh you want the boss? but kill me first please, I can't stand this job'
he would probably walk away disgusted or whatever
Disgust is what made him want to kill the shopkeeper at the beginning of the movie. Anton believes everyone he meets is there to be judged by him as an agent of fate.
>”Man, this really is no country for old men…”
>his eyes light up
>”Say that again?”
Yes. But I will not have seen you once you leave.
Why are beanpeople so violent
He's Spanish, you idiot. Not Mexican.
Every single mexican in the film is a murderer gang member that immediately kills civilians (i.e. extremely realistic)
the only difference is the level of brown
By that logic: All people have brown skin, the only difference is the level of brown.
>AtTenochtitlán, the principal Aztec city, "between 10,000 and 80,400 people" were sacrificed over the course of four days for the dedication of theGreat Pyramidin 1487, according toRoss Hassig.[19]
I have a hard time believing this story, it just seems like such a waste of population in a time of not that many people altogether. Bernal Diaz del Castillos journal describes them being as violent as the conquistadors tend to claim, but then again him being one i'm not sure if I can take him seriously (on top of being old and not even writing it himself). Capturing and slaying enemy captives is logical, but that many?
>just seems like such a waste of population
It was mostly hostages, members of rival tribes that they sacrificed.
Say nothing. Turn and walk away.
Doesn't he just say no and survive
>What would the correct response to this question have been?
"No." Then you turn around and walk out of the room and see if you get shot in the back of the head.
He'd shoot you. The correct choice would have been to carry a gun every day for situations like this and shoot Anton in the back when he's busy watching the fat guy choke on his blood.
For being Texas in the 1980s, there sure was a lack of people carrying guns of their own.
I think most of the characters in the movie did actually carry guns but Chigurh simply got the drop on them.
Conceal carry and open carry are actually a lot more common now then they were in the 80s. A sign of a society in decline. I rarely conceal carry because I live in a safe are; but if I have to go to the city....
In the '80s only people going out in a really rural area like Llewellyn in the beginning of the movie carried guns, because back then Black folk were only relegated to their own parts of town.
Sometimes I forget the world used to be a civilized place until not too long ago.
Back then only cops, criminals and hunters/farmers carried guns. The whole urban jungle thing wasn’t as prevalent by then.
This. People didn't need to be armed as whilst Black infestation was processing in the 70's/80's it hadn't succeeded in bringing drugs, poverty and crime to anything like the levels they cause today.
If you watch closely in the scene you can actually see Milton reaching frantically for his desk where he presumably keeps his gun but he's unable to get to it before Chigurh shoots him.
>He'd shoot you.
Probably. But maybe not. What other option do you have at this point? Bum rush? Offer to suck his dick?
Fricking kick the chair into him like Trinity and rush him. If you let it get to that point you're already almost fricked.
>Fricking kick the ch-BLAM
Adios, friendo
Indeed. You're probably going to live a very peaceful life. But, there could be a moment. Could be an hour from now. Weeks, maybe even years. There's gonna be somebody out there who is training right now. They are lifting. They are running. They are shooting. They are getting ready. They don't know it yet, but they're going to have a confrontation with you. Everything you have done up until that point, whenever it is, will determine whether or not you live or die.
Not just yourself. Could be your family. Could be your kids. Could be innocent bystanders. Your actions that you take from this day forward could be the difference between people living and people dying. If you're not ready, if you're not trained, you're gonna fricking die. Nobody cares whether or not you are ready. That is completely and utterly up to you.
The accountant wasn't ready, and nobody cared. Not the guy on the floor and not Anton.
>BLAM
>Offer to suck his dick?
All of yous!
He was an accountant. Probably wouldn’t even know the first thing about aiming a gun.
That's sensible, but he paid the price for it. He should have bought a little j-frame revolver and spent a weekend at the range to get familiar with it. You can carry that shit in your suit all day no problem.
We don't know if he paid the price for it because the scene cut away without showing what happened.
Anton asks the man, who is looking at him, "do you see me?". The answer to the question, "do you see me?" is chained directly to the previous question, "are you going to kill me?". And the answer is, very obviously, Yes. It was not a chance for the accountant to save himself. Anton only gives that opportunity through coin tosses.
But you're leaving out that he says "that depends" which implies he is giving the accountant a choice.
Anton probably did kill him for a myriad of reasons, but we don't know for sure, and that feeling of unease from not knowing is the movie's intention.
Realistically there no way Anton wouldn't have wasted that bottom feeder, though.
The thing I would point out as a counterargument is that we did see him spare the shopkeeper who he clearly really wanted to kill. Which I think indicates that he is willing to spare people even when there is no benefit to doing so.
The shopkeeper won a coin toss and was ultimately some random shopkeeper. The accountant saw Anton kill an important person. The police would investigate, his story wouldn't check out without him saying he at least saw some someone. The dude definitely had to go. Furthermore, Anton hates dishonourable people, and the accountant lying to his face about whether he saw Anton would be perceived as dishonourable.
Knowing Anton, he killed him. He wouldn't take that kind of chance. It's ambiguous for a reason. But from what I gathered from his character, I think there's no question he killed the accountant.
I would use my tongue to flip my molar lid off and press down on the button that instantly increases my metabolism by 1000x granting me super speed (time is effectively stopped for Chigurh). I would then dash towards him and murder him with his own cattle bolt device. Next I would flick the switch in my mouth again returning time to normal speed as his lifeless body drops to the floor.
“Looks like you didn’t see me”
I didn't get why he didn't try to kill the fat lady giving him sass.
In this scene he heard a toilet flushing in the back and someone moving, implying that someone is about to come to the room, jeopardizing whatever he would do to that woman to get the information.
Dude flushing the toilet was an unknown variable and not worth the risk. Workplace is kind of a long shot anyways for someone who just found a shit ton of money
He wouldn't be able to win. It's as simple as that.
Are you saying she could take him in a fight?
If you have to ask that question she's already won.
unstoppable force meets immovable object, etc
[coldly, now]: I do not appreciate your tone. We go to bed when we're good and ready. *knowing glance below the counter*. Leave my gas station.
most the deaths in this were really bizarre and totally unrealistic that it takes you out of the movie
>threatening a small store owner in texas who 100% has a shotgun within reach under his counter
>people (who would 100% know what a bolt gun was) letting strangers put bolt guns to their head without flinching or moving away an inch
>laying around in public with strangers while knowing a professional killer is after you and already getting into a gun fight with him
>woodies character who just magically doesnt know how to use guns or kill people despite being a hired killer because umm sugar is just so badass!
My one complaint of this movie is Woody Harrelson's character should have been more of a fight for Anton.
I get your point but the whole movie is about contrast and the passive nature of woody is in contrast to the antagonistic (anton) nature of (you)
Whoa, wait a minute.
>Anton
>ANTagONist
Was that intentional?
Dunno man. I'm just a shitposter.
Why? Anton had him cold. Woody in the books considered fighting Anton, but decided against it because of his age and belief that he could talk his way out of the situation. The book was called No Country for Old Men, remember?
well in the movie woody makes it clear that sugar is a fricking psycho who isnt to be reasoned with and when he "at him cold" it was in a public space, sugar was wounded and could hardly walk, and woody was above him on some stairs and could literally just lunge kick his ass down the stairs and either pull out his gun/run and get it or follow him down the stairs to frick him up
>he had the high ground; it was over
moronic
>advantages dont matter because of memes
are you *literally* fricking moronic?
High ground only matters when there's at least a hundred meters of height difference and you're having to fight against gravity to make your shots. A person standing at the top of an open staircase isn't going to have any advantage.
>High ground only matters when there's at least a hundred meters of height difference
Lol high ground advantage is not just about ballistics, it makes it easier for the higher guy to take cover and more difficult for the lower guy to take cover. Play a milsim
What cover is there on an open stairwell?
>advantages
like a shotgun?
>see chug'arh wielding a dyi cattle pressure shotgun that requires him walking with an air tank
>wait for him to grab it by one hand, him having to wield the weapon in the other
>lunge at him in the stairs, falling on him even if you get gutshot
>wait for the corner or the room door to do the same
>or just run after a corner and jump out the window
any of these options are legitimate, but he made the only definitive losing play by thinking he can just personnel him intellectually
chigurh was carrying a loaded shotgun in that scene
I have a question about that, why was he using a real shotgun in that scene when he used his fancy air gun most of the other times?
he lost it in a coin toss
Because he knew Woody was a rival hitman that in turn knew him and would likely be armed.
It's weird that he uses the shotgun like 99% of the movie, but specifically the scene where he comes for Llewellyn in the hotel he's using a silenced rifle.
Proof? Pretty sure he had a pistol.
>lunge kick his ass down the stairs
I would pay so much money to see this
>dont fight back and use advantages to save your life because uh memes and you may look silly
i forgot its euro posting hours and all you guys have reduced iq from malnutrition
Try reading for once in your life, you fat fricking moron.
>euro posting hours
Just because you stayed up past your bedtime doesn't mean the entire rest of the country is asleep little man. Kek kids say the darndest things, fricking KINO moment.
You're approaching the analysis wrong if you think anything here has to do about 'realism'. Chigurh is a force of nature and Harrelson's character is the opposite of that. That's why he wears white and Chigurh wears black/darker clothing. Harrelson is more like a guardian angel that doesn't use violence to get his goals. He also knows that it's pretty much over at that moment because there is nothing he can do against Chigurh. This goes beyond the physical realm. Look at the whole film again; Chigurh can pretty much do anything and get away with it, even when it seems like he can't and is wounded. A force of nature that is beyond good and evil and doesn't care about any kind of morals. The film toys with the idea that his physical presence is omniscient at some points, like in the shootout where his shots just appear out of seemingly nowhere. That's what really makes this film frightening.
Yeah we get it it's israelites glorifying criminals as always. Shit movie and only dumb millennials like it.
Did you even watch the movie? The shop owner didn't die.
yeah i said "deaths" technically but im talking about all dumb stuff. i know he didnt die, but sugar threatened to come to his house later that night and kill him and his family and the gun wielding old boomer clerk (whos probably killed a Black person or two in his life) just goes "oh ok well please be about your way"
You are legit moronic, dude. Don't even make an attempt to understand a scene in this movie. It wrecks your brain. This film is unironically too intelligent for you to comprehend.
>just magically doesnt know how to use guns or kill people despite being a hired killer because umm sugar is just so badass
What?? He does pretty damn well in every scene barring the last one
Filtered. This is a multi layered film with some very subtle supernatural elements. Harrelson's character is symbolic to an angel, for example. Try again
The whole schtick that Anton does with the bolt gun when raiding rooms with armed people is really impractical if you think about it. He is just announcing his entrance by blowing out the lock and he then has to shuffle the shotgun into a firing position. He could just shoot out the lock with the gun, reducing hassle. In that motel scene with Moss, he would have died 100% if Moss didn't fire pre-emtively. Just keep your gun trained on the doorway and shoot when he fully reveals himself.
Breaching a door with buckshot has approximately a 30% chance of injuring yourself with either ricochets of the buckshot or splinters from the door (but the ricochet is more likely by a lot). If there's any metal in the frame or a lot of metal in the lock, you want to use frangible rounds.
>people (who would 100% know what a bolt gun was) letting strangers put bolt guns to their head without flinching or moving away an inch
They are frozen in fear
It's another israeli directed movie that tries to imply that criminals are all powerful, you can't do anything to defend yourself and the main sheriff is a pussy.
Chigurh would get blasted in 2 seconds IRL Texas.
Idk bro Texan cops being pussies sounds pretty true to real life.
[smirks]: You're a bit stupid too *lifts handgun at waist level* Now answer my questions.. friendo.
I want Stilgar to be in the NCFOM universe, and Chigurgh to bust Paul's chops
what movie
DUNC: Part Two
No Country for Old Men
If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. I also recommend There Will Be Blood and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. That year had a lot of great films.
country filled with young girls
>Chigurh is our word. But you can call me Chigga.
What is the correct response?
Did he shoot him?
he didn't check his shoes for blood after leaving, so that counts for something
>That depends. Are you John Cena?
>Sir, I ain't at liberty to give no information about the state of my eyesight... which is bad btw horrible in fact. My hearing too. Could anyone be talking right now? Am I talking to myself? Oh must be my schizophrenia, always seeing things haha oh darn me! haha
>In fact, what was I even doing here? I'm so forgetful.
See who? I just got back from taking a shit and I just found him like this. Seemed like a nice guy honestly, what a shame.

I've read Blood Meridian and I have to ask, has the guy never heard of a quotation mark?
Read the book aloud or try to speak it in your mind, The natural rhythms and sounds of the language will act as punctuation on its own. Even more than punctuation it will sound almost like Music.
You can't stroke your intellect for reading it if it's not needlessly difficult
>see who?
>man, I better go home, I'm not feeling well
Do the John Cena U can't C me, hit him with the Attitude Adjustment.
it was a cool scene. i was disappointed when i saw that the accountant scene doesn't exist in the book.
Something I was wondering about this movie is, didn't it basically advertise to criminals that there's a farm tool you can get to easily blow out door locks? It's probably easy to get your hands on one too. I always wondered why it didn't become a common tool in robberies after NCFOM made people aware of it.
important question: how beautiful is javier bardem in this movie? probably a 7/10? would he have sex with different girls at least once two months?
I think I might look like him in this
bardem himself is good looking, so if you have similar features you may be ok. change the hair though, the coens purposefully made it weird-looking and based it on an old photo of someone in a brothel or some shit. FWIW, when bardem had his hair done as chigurh for the first time, he said something like "great now i won't get laid for two months" kek
>Now the man behind the cut has emerged. He is a Canadian hairdresser from New Brunswick called Paul LeBlanc who has previously styled hair on movies such as Star Wars and Casino, and who shared an Oscar with make-up artist Dick Smith for his work on Amadeus.
>Le Blanc says that his inspiration was from the crusades, "when knights and Muslims were murdering each other, and this was a typical haircut. It was a dangerous time and we wanted to make Javier timeless and dangerous at first sight."
Source, article from the Guardian
>I went to New Mexico and I sat down in a makeup trailer, and they came with a photograph of a brothel in the border with Mexico in the '50s or in the '60s with a guy photographed with this haircut and two prostitutes. And I thought, "What does this mean?" And they said, "Well, we want you to look like that." I said, "Okay." And then the hairdresser, Paul, which passed away recently, amazing hairdresser, in a second, with my own hair, he made [imitates snipping], and I saw it and I said, "Yes, I have to make this movie." I mean, this is such a Coen brothers look. And, because it was funny, it was ridiculous, it was fun. And then that in comparison with what the character is, would make a very good Coen brothers character to play.

>when bardem had his hair done as chigurh for the first time, he said something like "great now i won't get laid for two months"
lol
yeah, I kinda have his features. often people come up to me and say "hey have you ever seen no country for old men? you look like that guy". I think they make reference to this movie because they only seen him in it and skyfall
"You're so fricking hot."
turn around
"is there anybody here" while drying my tears
I can see you as far as I can throw you, and right now you're seeming mighty heavy. Caspere knew this.
I haven't even seen season 2 but I'm enjoying this meme
seriously, what the frick was his problem?
>See what?
>What would the correct response to this question have been?
"I'm Cinemaphile, let me suck your wiener"
*heems you*
What the frick does heem mean? Frick you. I've asked Cinemaphile a million times and they never gave me a straight answer. Frick you so much.
It means to just get heeemed on, anon. Like mauled totally if you know what I mean. Surrounded like and completely outclassed by someone much grizzlier than anything you can think of. Also I'ma bout to rewatch No Country, been yeaaars. Get heemed, homosexual.
When they get knocked or choked out it's HEEM SLEEPY, if they tap it's HEEM TAPPY, pic related was HEEM SNAPPY. It's a heem or be heem'd world out there.
So what happened here? Was anton in another room? Was it in his head and anton had already left?
That scene Tommy Lee Jones dies and gets shot because Anton is there. The last scene is him being dead, describing a dream within a dream. That's the true kino take.
There are a few ways to interpret it. Personally I think it's Tommy lee's thoughts that the assassin is waiting to kill him, but deciding to enter the room anyway.
yeah i took it as basically a physical representation of TLJ's fears. when he checks the air vent the money is already gone so chigurh must have been and gone as well
I like to go with the adjacent room theory, because it turns the entire thing into a coinflip scenario. I think it fits the theme of the movie really well. TLJ took a gamble and lived by sheer luck.
Also I dont like the idea of it being just his imagination picturing Chigurh, because the movie does not do that sort of thing in any other part. I feel like it's cheating from the director to show something to the audience and not have it be true.
last time i watched it, for some reason, the adjacent room theory didn't seem to make sense and i started believing the imagination theory. but the first time i saw it, i thought chigurh was in the adjacent room, pulling the same trick llewellyn pulled earlier in the movie with the connected air vents. i'm going to have to watch it again and sort my life out

The fat lady humiliated Chigurh and the whole movie is him butthurt that some obese c**t told him off.
The answer is already determined.
>Do you see me?
Means he will kill him, in the same way that some people would say
>Does a bear shit in the woods?
rather than saying "no"
That's the one line/delivery in the movie that I dislike
See who?
If we're going to talk about "did you see me" we need to define what "me" is. And while we're at it we need to define "see" as well. Because the bloody thing about seeing someone is

Through analysis of thousands of recorded gunfights, the Cleric has determined that the geometric distribution of antagonists in any gun battle is a statistically-predictable element. The gun kata treats the gun as a total weapon, each fluid position representing a maximum kill zone, inflicting maximum damage on the maximum number of opponents, while keeping the defender clear of the statistically-traditional trajectories of return fire. By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120 percent. The difference of a 63 percent increased lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.
