At this point, I’m more concerned about his remake of “True Grit”.

Seriously, WTF?

I was nonplussed at that too... but then I found out it’s the Coen brothers doing it. They might just pull it off. I’m interested to see what they do with it.

The Coens said that they wanted to a more faithful adaptation of the book.

Saw a trailer for it and have to say it looked pretty good. Not John Wayne, but it definitely looked like a solid interpretation of US Deputy Marshall Rooster Cogburn. I was glad to see they’re trying to follow the book rather than a poor imitation of the one and only Duke.

It’s not really a remake, it’s a “trying to be closer to the same book”-make.
