At least DSF, Baxter, Langsta and myself have seen it by now, and it's certainly a movie that needs to be discussed.
First of all, I haven't been able to find anything about this anywhere else, but did anyone notice how it seemed like they went out of there way to make Chigur look like a steer? The hair, the slightly unfocused eyes, and the sunflower seeds he was chewing. No one else I know noticed it, but it has to be intentional, with the cattlegun and the story Sherrif Bell told and everything.
I don't think giving Llewellen a proper death would've hurt the movie any. That disappointed me.
Unlike some, I liked the ending, but I think it would've been more accepted all around if we'd seen Llewellen die and gotten a bit of closure from that, the remaining chunk of the film seeming just like the rambing anti-climax Bell talks about and wrapping up that way.
The last shot is one of my all-time favourites.
On a tangent, after reading Batman: Knightfall(the novelization of the whole saga by Denny O'Neill) I've really wanted Bane to appear properly and as the main villain in a Batman movie(hopefully he still will in this franchise), but I've never been able to think of an actor who'd fit the part all that well, the closest probably being Dwayne Johnson, but even he would've been meh.
Javier Bardem was born to play Bane. Hope he gets to.
