        Raising Arizona is the one Coen movie i have no use for. -- nm - TFox Apr 2, 16:12 2
        
        Same here. My gf loves it and I've sat throught it a few times but I just don't like it. - Krusty Apr 2, 16:15
        
        okay, Step Brothers - mr. pixie Apr 2, 16:12
        
        That was their second movie. (What counts as early? Pre-Fargo?) -- nm - Roger More Apr 2, 16:08 2
        
        I thought there were a few more before then but I could be mistaken. If not, my point really stands. - Mel Profit Apr 2, 16:09 1

        I like several films, but not all films, from both of those -- nm - Beryllium Apr 2, 15:57
      - They are hit and miss for me. I did not like Ladykillers or Intolerable Cruelty. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 2, 15:56 1

- Pro. Get it, and if you make one big purchase during the year it pays for itself. - JaxSean Apr 2, 15:44 1
  - this -- nm - Beaker Apr 2, 16:09
- Had it for one year. It was 100 dollars, made enough purchases to get back 104 - amoxy Apr 2, 15:44
- If you spend enough there, it's definitely worth it. - Dr.Vermin Apr 2, 15:43 1
  - I'm probably 2/3 x month... - Old Antarctic Explorer Apr 2, 15:45
