Burn After Reading---12/23/08

It got the endorsement of noted film critic Larry King! Didn't see it, not sure if it's a buy or rent.

I'd suggest renting it first, though if you're a big Coen brothers fan I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Yes, hello, Best Buy? I just wanted to call to check on the status of my shi- I mean, I wanted to check if you had the new Burn After Reading DVD.

I hope there's a limited edition gift set with a hatchet, a CD, a copy of Point of Order, Oliver, a roll of goat cheese, a mail-in offer for a Schwinn bicycle, and
Spoiler:
a do-it-yourself guide to making your own dildo chair.


Also, Best Buy would be IDEAL in offering a free pack of CD-R's with every purchase the first week.

That is great news. I really enjoyed that film, and I will be putting that on my x-mas list.

"Report back to me...when it makes sense."

Pretty decent flick, just watched it. Would love to see something with CD-R package on release.

Here's a link if anyone wants to check out the shirt. The back says "intelligence is relative" and the front says "a film by Joel and Ethan Coen" in the smaller print between burn and reading.

Does Walmart include the t-shirt in the Blu-Ray version also?

I was at Wal-Mart yesterday and didn't see this with a T-Shirt. Picked it up at Target 'cause it was the cheapest.

And for anyone that wants to deal with Mail in Rebates, you can get it for $14.99 at FYE (After MIR).

This is probably only interesting to maybe one other person on here besides me, but I was driving past the old Tower Records location on Rt 17 in Paramus NJ today and noticed that it is still done up as the "Hardbodies" gym from Burn After Reading.

I must have driven past it 50 times while they were shooting inside and never realized it. It looked like regular gym to me.

Watched this last night... excellent stuff. Would make a great trilogy with Fargo and Big Lebowski. A trilogy of morons.
