I didnt interpret it as him being the good guy. Its just an entertaining parable about a gunslinger.

This came out right around the same time as RDR2 as a total cash-in. I watched it since I was already in the western mood, so they got me there. I'll admit it was enjoyable too.

But yeah, with that context in mind, this parody makes a lot of sense.

There no good or bad guy there, he's just a character in one part of anthology.

Like did you even watch the movie?

Buster Scruggs and then James Franco were the two best parts. I liked the one about the miner, too. The one with Liam Neeson was...dark. And the last one was kinda forgettable, apart from the ending.

Like any anthology set, it has its ups and downs, but I'd say the ups are good enough to offset the downs.

Given that it's a compilation of short stories it's actually really easy to watch because there are a whole bunch of points where you can pause it and walk away and not lose any context.

It's an absurdly charming premise, honestly. I think the segment lasted just long enough to make it perfect.

Netflix was absolutely both cashing in and helping to drive the hype train. It's not stupid at all. Red Dead was one of the most anticipated games of the decade.

More likely it's just a coincidence. Westerns come out every year.

Wait, which part of it was serious? Even the darkest, most dramatic one (with Liam Neeson) had a lot of humor to it. Dark humor, but definitely humor.

The rest of the movie was kind of uneven, but that first episode was f****** genius. Literally every word of dialogue was miles deep and irony and satire. Perfectly written, directed, a masterpiece.

Walks into cantina for some whiskey, gets denied service, says he breaks the law, gets insulted, insults back, kills everyone including the bartender, then waltzes out and is apparently a lawless outlaw like he said.

Yeah, and RDR2 was delayed also, or it would have originally come out before Buster Scruggs. Like said above, just coincidence that the timing lined up, they are always adding Westerns to streaming services.

It is a great illustration of self-defense laws in the USA.

Technically he would win if the family members of the deceased took him to court since the dudes in the bar "threatened" his life or whatever.

Despite him being the one to instigate.

I randomly quote the line 'Mr. Pocket' regardless of the context of the situation.

Also, plenty of people are already aware of this, but the limbless artist Harrison from 'Meal Ticket' is the same actor who played Dudley Dursley in the Harry Potter movies.

Finally, lmao at thinking that RDR2 had even the slightest influence on the Coens making this movie.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


There's nothing normal about shooting a dude in the head simply because he shows you that he's armed. He didn't even pull the gun.

Even by the gunslinger code, you're at least supposed to give the guy a fair warning. That's why duels have counts.
