Hi Everyone! I have missed you!

Okay, so I pulled a list from Wikipedia of the movies they made together. I was originally aiming to focus only on the ones they co-directed, but I ended up including a couple from this list even if it was just one that Directed but both wrote or worked on together.

If a movie isn't on the list, it's because it's already on the channel. I did watch Fargo when I was a kid, I don't remember much about it, so I decided to leave that one off for now.

Please vote for all your favourites in an approval style!

M. Emmet Walsh in 'Blood Simple' is one of the great characters of all time, and I'll say nothing more because I don't want to spoil even a millisecond of your experience.

Bubba Fett

I have never seen any of these so just letting this one ride and see what happens.

Bill W

Great soundtracks for O Brother and Llewyn Davis!

Daniel Karlsson

Burn after reading and O brother, both fantastic.

Teemu Laitinen

I would highly recommend watching the original The Ladykillers (1955). It has Alec Guinness, Peter Sellers and Herbert Lom in it.

Buster Scruggs is such a fun, funny, and VIOLENT film. Definitely won’t win, it wasn’t a big film.

Clay F

You've already seen some of the big ones, e.g., No Country for Old Men (great reaction), The Big Lebowski, True Grit (2010), Fargo. My top choice here = O Brother, which I have nostalgia for.

Andrew Pettola

My all-time favorite, though, is Raising Arizona.

David Bennett

SO many good flicks on this list but I REALLY want to watch O Brother with you, Ames! Easily in my top 5 movies of all time!

Bryan David

Inside Llewyn Davis is a top-five Coen film for me. I'm clearly in the minority... Truth be told, with the exception of The Ladykillers, they’re all worthy.

RFK Fan

Did Ames ever react to TRUE GRIT?? Still my fave Cohen film and arguably one of the best westerns ever made in my opinion....

michael anderson

every one of these movies are great...i knew o' brother would win but a serious man or inside llewyn davis are really good sleeper cohen brothers movies.

My fave Coen movies aside from No Country are Blood Simple, Barton Fink, A Serious Man, and Inside Llewyn Davis. I'm starting to think I'm in the minority! :D
