I think they make some of the finest movies around. You guys dig? You can't go wrong- The Big Lebowski, Oh Brother Where art Though, Blood Simple, Barton Fink, The Hudsucker Proxy, Fargo, all classics. Anyone know if they're working on anything new?
That's motherfuckin' John Oates!

I like the Brothers too, although I think they are slipping somewhat over the last five or so years.

Intolerable Cruelty did not feel like a Coen Brothers movie.  I did not really like that one at all.  

The Ladykillers was great.  Very funny movie, although it always gets mixed reviews.  I thought it was as good as the classic Coen films already mentioned.  
If you don't know for yourself, how could you ever know for me....
