Here's 2009's poll (with the correct spelling of the directors' name Wink).

My vote is still The Ladykillers.  One of the funniest movies ever.

Seriously hard decision between Fargo and No Country For Old Men - but Fargo was one of the movies that originally piqued my interest in movie making, so Fargo it is.

Please change the title, it is hurting me. I vote for Fargo, although No Country and A Serious Man come pretty close.

Argh, too many to chose from.  I think No Country is probably my favorite, followed closely by Fargo, The Big Lebowski, and O Brother Where Art Thou.

My vote goes for No Country For Old Men. I like just about every Coen brother Movie I have seen...and I just got one Coen Brothers movie a couple days ago (Barton Fink) and I'm really looking forward to watching it.

I haven't seen them all, but Raising Arizona really clicked with me.

Surely you're not suggesting it's superior to the Alec Guinness version?

Out of the 5 I've seen, I'll go with O Brother, followed by Lebowski, Fargo, Burn After Reading and Raising Arizona.  (Got all 5 on DVD.)

Can't remember what I voted last time, but I'm going with Miller's Crossing (closely followed by Barton Fink and No Country)

Tough choice. I love O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Fargo but No Country For Old Men is a masterpiece. Fantastic movie - great, shocking plot and brilliant Javier Bardem and Josh Brolin acting.

I was given the Big Lebowski at work today because someone said they thought I would like it.  In fact they said "watch this move, I'm guaranteeing that it will be your favorite move"
Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell?
I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance.

It's close between Fargo, No Country..., and The Big Lebowski...

Too close, I won't vote. Nice poll!
