Johnny C:
what

EDIT: I have to stop just posting "what" as a response. Apt as it may be, it's not really a full enough thought.

Still, you missed the point by a wide margin, dude.

MusicScribbles:
I think what Johnny is trying to say is that the movie isn't there just to be 'witty' or 'clever'.
I would have to tell you that you might have been watching it for all the wrong reasons. One of these namely being that you weren't watching the movie for the characters, but for the possibility that this movie is trying to tell the world how religion is such a silly thing. This was never a possibility, but a delusion. I am sorry to break your delusion.

I liked There Will Be Blood although I would still give the nod to No Country For Old Men. It might just be me, but the music in TWBB really got on my nerves. Every time the music seemed to be getting really intense I felt a bit let down because not as much happened as I thought would. However, the characters were very well played I thought. I liked the preacher boy, and I agree that the creepiness of him was well cast. As much as I thought this movie was really well done, and as much as I think it has a shot at best picture, I really just personally prefer a different type of movie. Not enough happened for me, even though I know that a lot happened. If that makes any sense at all.

MusicScribbles:
Not at all. You're making a lot of sense. I also like No Country For Old Men more. I've probably grown tiresome to be around so far as picking what movies to go see has been this year. I always say that we should go see NCFOM even though I've already seen it.
As far as the soundtrack for There Will Be Blood goes, I really liked it, but I can see how it must have grated for some people, it heightened the experience for me. I liked how the music seemed to go nowhere at all, which seemed to reflect the maddening circles that some of the characters were running in. [I hope that isn't too pretentious and bland a connection to make. Don't take it seriously.]

JazzyJoe:
Actually Scribbles I went into the movie with high hopes and simply wanting to be entertained... I have no idea why anyone would see a movie for another reason. Classic case of good actors in a bad movie.
