Same here, and I dont intend to complete it either - I have a feeling those two movies would severely damage my opinion of the Coen Brothers, which is extremely high at present.
There is a new directors cut of Blood Simple coming out soon, however, which I will certainly get.

Yeah, they quickly became one of my favourite filmmakers after I watched Raising Arizona and Miller's Crossing some years back. I just love their awesome writing and quirkiness, man. And it doesn't hurt that they continually recast some of my favourite actors in Buscemi, Goodman, Turturro and Frances McDormand on the regular.
Heh, it's pretty funny that you're also holding off on seeing those two movies that I've also mentioned because I feel exactly the same way aswell, man. I've had countless of opportunities to pick both of em up for bargain based prices but I just couldn't pull the trigger, man. Anyway, yeah. My seriously flawed completist temperament will over power me sooner or later and force me to buy 'em.

Nah, I will always hold out. I saw about 30 minutes of Intelorable Cruelty on TV once and had to turn it off because my Coen Brothers likeometer was crashing. Ladykillers is even worse, apparently.
Miller's Crossing was the first of their movies I saw, and I absolutely loved it. Then came Fargo, which really impressed me, and then the mighty Big Lebowski, which just blew my mind. I also loved The Man Who Wasn't There, just an incredible work of art, and The Hudsucker Proxy because it is just a delightful little film. Their casting is spot on, and I love the way they are prepared to cast people which may usually be considered purely as supporting actors in lead roles, to superb effect. They also know how to get the best out of Frances McDormand, she is always top notch in their films, as well as working with many of the greats such as Paul Newman, Albert Finney, Tim Robbins, George Clooney etc.
I just love their work so much that I will avoid having my opinion of them stained at all costs. Luckily, due to my penchant for older and more obscure films and directors, alot of the films I want are impossible to get hold of, so few areas of my collection are complete and that makes me less concerned with completing my Coen Brothers collection than I otherwise might be.
