Coen Bros to make a Spaghetti Western!!!!

Friggin AWESOME!!!!!

Filmmaking siblings Joel and Ethan Coen are set to make their goriest film ever - a Spaghetti Western featuring scenes of primitive torture methods. The brothers, whose notoriously gory new film No Country for Old Men has been tipped for Oscar glory, are desperate to make a film about the days of cowboys and Indians battling it out in the Wild West of America. But - as Joel warns - it won't be one for the faint-hearted. He says, "We've written a western with a lot of violence in it. There's scalping and hanging ... it's good. Indians torturing people with ants, cutting their eyelids off." Ethan adds, "It's a proper western, a real western, set in the 1870s. It's got a scene that no one will ever forget because of one particular chicken."

BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR ME!!!!!

*plays Morricone music*

My beloved genre is making a comeback!

Sounds interesting. I hope they cast it well.

If Franco Nero gets in the cast...this would be just PERFECT!

Wow, I'm totally up for it!

Sweet... Sergio Leone is smiling in his grave.

It's about time for a real western, the cold bitter kind. I do hope the Coen's will put more layers and depth in it than just the 'Hostel-esque' details they gave away in that tidbit

They need to make a "no country" trilogy and give Bardem's hitman a worthy adversary. Maybe Brolin's close relative seeking vengeance or end it with a "good,bad,ugly" type scenario. Bardem could be the "ugly" who is left for dead on a promise to call off his other hitman "friends" from seeking revenge. Only this time the good guy lives to fight another day,or in the third installment.
Ok so many it's a bit corny but how much worse can they get from the original? Won't be too hard to improve upon the overall vagueness of the first one.
But then I digress...

BTW--where is the actual "no country" thread????

Yeah true, but Leone is the crowned king of spaghetti... I'd be awesome if the Coens do a small tribute and have a few super-closeup-shots of the protagonist, like Sergio's style.

This sounds like it will be good...Cant wait
