Which one do you like better?

They are both terrific films. I have trouble hearing through the accents in No Country so a lot of the subtext was a bit amiss for me.

I would probably say There Will Be Blood therefore. It is a film that takes a lot more risks in its themes and ideas.

I haven't seen There Will Be Blood, No Country for Old Men was a great, if somewhat slow film.

They were both fantastic, but There Will be Blood had some moments concerning the film's dialogue that were just weird...

No Country for Old Men is decent, though it wanders too far away from the book in places.

I haven't seen There Will Be Blood, though the people I know that did see it described it as something along the lines of "pretentious crap."

I might sound like sound fanboy but that is just not true. Its a terrific film and one that you should see. I don't know what they would find "pretentious" about it at all..

Agreed, and hides. TWBB, only because of Daniel Day Lewis.

I feel the same way. Maybe not awful, but I certainly wouldn't give either the time of day again.

Ive only seen NCFOM, but the other one can't possibly be worse than it was.

Just the name "There Will be Blood" is superior to "No Country for Old Men".

Never seen There Will be Blood, but because of all the praise the movie gets on OT I'll end up seeing it eventually.

No Country for Old Men, though, was masterful. Great Film.

I'll say I prefer No country for old men. I'd liked the story and the characters better. There will be blood was good, it was just that there were a bunch of weird parts, such as the ending.

No country for old men. I love watching homicidal maniacs kill everything in sight. And I love when movies do not wimp out and have a "happy" ending.

Wut? There Will Be Boredom is probably the one of the most overrated movies to come out in a looong time. NCFOM was better than that by far. The only good thing in TWBB was DD Lewis. The pacing and the music were also just awful, what a waste of time that film was. Don't try to insult my intelligence, I know what a film is far better than the average person.

I have not seen either, but I wanted to say that I read that all as one long sentence, and it sounded like the greatest threat ever.

There Will Be Blood by far especially the end it was like watching a Stanley Kubrick film.
