      1. I'll admit, I talk too much about the Coen Brothers, but I think I'm not alone in feeling that their stature has grown in recent years.

      2. The stature of the Coens has risen in part because of the very strong run of films they've bade from No Country to Hail, Caesar.

      3. A major complaint by critics (they create grotesque caricatures & despise their characters) now seems falsified by reality itself.

      4. When people say "it feels like we're living in a Coen Bros. movie" what they mean is that seemingly grotesque caricatures actually exist

      5. I mean, look at the people in the news: Trump, Bannon, Roger Stone, Robert Goldstone, etc. They are caricatures come to life.pic.twitter.com/Bpp1Jhhoih

          A casting director couldn't even find such disposable characters.

          This ties back to your point about Trump, comic books, and WWE. There's a ton of media efficiency when you fully embody a trope.
