Every other word is "Dude" and "F#%@" GOD i just wanted to take the tape and bash it into a million pieces, of course, id have to pay the fine, so this became the first movie i havent finished, amazing

you're crazy..that's the whole charm of the movie. jeff bridges is so hot..even when he's old and has gotten a belly..

well, i'm sure the makers of the big LEBOWSKI are plum delighted that you don't hate their movie.

i thought that movie rocked. i didn't expect to like it, but it's always a pleasant surprise to like a movie that looks horrible. my favorite part was when the anemic german crew were ordering a traditional american breakfast at a diner, with the girl's toe cut off. classic.

Chordata: LeboWski, there. I apologize for my spelling error, but it was 3:33am and WAY past my bedtime :) It is known that manual dexterity and hand eye coordination become more difficult as the night drags on. I'm sure you've experienced an all-nighter before..

i have. sorry. i just love being a bitch, especially when i disagree with someone. have a nice day, even if you taste in movies is horribly skewed. :)

I've seen the movie twice. the first time involved a lot of sex, so i missed a lot of the movie. the second time involved a lot of drugs, and i ended up passing out. great psychedelic bowling scenes, though. those boys make very psychedelic movies. like the car chase in raising arizona. fucking nuts. but anyway, i still haven't seen the whole thing straight through.

truly one of the best comedies I have ever seen. I loved this movie.

This is the worst fucking movie I've ever started watching. It's on now, and I'm at the PC because ANYWHERE is better than in front of the TV. Dude, this Fucking sucks dude. Fuck.

just give up, man. you're totally out of your element.

Swine - Explain to me the appeal. IT'S NOT FUNNY unless you're a BRAINDEAD STONER who can't understand anything more complex. WHAT WAS FUNNY?

Stoners are funny. That's what. Unless you're an Amish. Or Nancy Reagan. Who just oughta be toking major spilffs/being married to that ex-presidental alzheimer's zucchini. I wonder how early in his term those symptoms really started...

the symptoms started in the 70's...

I haven't seen it in a while, but I remember thinking it was a bit contrived and disjointed. movies shouldn't need narration, even if just at the start and end. but I was expecting a lot after fargo. however, the jeff bridges character was really appealing to me. after I saw that, I understood the life I want to lead. I want to hang out in bowling alleys and dress badly and listen to ccr and drink white russians and go to the grocery store stoned. it was nice to see another life open to me. I could do that. like yesterday I saw a woman in the park. she was old, fat and ugly, and she was sitting on the bench, reading the paper and drinking a beer. I hardly ever see women drinking beer here, but she was. I mean, why not? who the hell would she be trying to impress? I could be her, too. she looked like she was feeling fine, out there wasting time in the sunshine.

MPM probably doesn't realize the permanent effect of pot on increasing the range of your sense of humor. MPM also probably didn't "get" Brain Candy, either.

i thought the john goodman character was funny as shit. a polish-catholic vietnam vet who adheres to jewish law as a tribute to his ex-wife? c'mon. i've been walking around telling people that they're "out of their element" for about two weeks now after watching that movie again. but, of course, i may very well be a braindead stoner.

MPM is a very strange person indeed.

Come on guys! Actually, John Goodman is the only thing that kept me interested in the first 45 minutes... Believe me, I've known (and been) a brain-dead stoner in my days. I just thought that the character was a little fake, and the whole "I'm the duuuude" thing was a bit overdone.

I loved that movie. It was funny. It was no "Raising Arizona," but it was funny, and the dream sequence bowling choreography with chorus line was magnificent.

i can't say i really care anymore who likes or doesn't like any movie. i am, however, a braindead stoner.

MPM is the DUUUUUUUUDDDDDDDDDDDDEEEEEEEEE MAN! Your the Dude!

I transcribed the movie for all of you who were too stoned to remember it: Dude! Dude? FUCK! Dude... Fuck? Dude?!?! Fuck. DUDE!!! {repeat for 90 minutes} If you want GOOD mindless comedy, try BASEketball, I laughed my ass off...

How about these lines: "Wee're goi-ink too keeck your ahsss, Le-bauw-sskee!" "Dude, I've got a beverage here!" Forget dialogue: The ferret scene. When The Dude goes over and does the pencil rubbing and it turns out to be a big cock. countless other instances of mirth...

i saw BASEketball the other night. it was funny, but no big lebowski. there were considerable 'dude' scenes, however.

Base-ketball's Dude scene (the whole DUDE conversation) was excellent - you could actually understand that! THAT is clever comedy. And, like I said, John Goodman was excellent in TBL. And I did like the scene the first time Dude meets Mr. Lebowski and puts the shades on, and the rug tying the whole room together. But just barely.

ok, dude. just shut the fuck up.

Yeh Dude, shut UP! HA! MPM is the Duuuuuuuuuudddddddddeeeeeeee!

skottey, you too. just shut the fuck up.

well butter my buns and call me a biscuit,I must be braindead too.I loved that movie,just the look on Jeff Bridges face in the dream sequence had me on the floor.I live in Arizona and I won 2 movie tickets and a t-shirt from the Arizona Republic for answering a question in the yak back section.The question was"What movie made you cry that you,re embarrasssed to tell anyone about"I responded"I cried when they hit Jeff Bridges in the head in the Big Lebowski.I thought they killed him.Then he had that acid trip and came to.I was pretty looped."I gave the t-shirt to a friend,because it was purple and three times to big.

Bowling last night,that song came on.. I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in,the song they played as he was tripping when they knocked him out. I think I had a moment of zen,then I bought some pin of an angel with a bowling ball some girls were selling.It,s cute but not as cute as the monk with the bowling ball sucking his thumb figurine I got for 50 cents less than the pin.

This is a great movie made by the all-time great Cohen brothers. If the word "dude" annoyed you, you missed the humor in the movie. Guess you didn't figure out that it was an exaggeration.

im surprised i never offered mine on this flic. I absolutely loved this film..... the line up doesnt get much better, with Buscemi, Goodman and Bridges.... "Tonight, Jesus will FUCK YOU IN THE ASS" i bowl semi-regularly at the alley where they filmed this. Hollywood Star Lanes baby! when i was in NYC, John Goodman was waiting to board a flight to LA, i was on stand by for....i wanted to tell him i thought that was one of his best gigs, but when some lady came up and asked for an autograph and seeing his subsequent look of displeasure i decided to leave him alone.

I would be pissed if some shit head came in and pissed on my rug because he thought I was someone else. You have to love the stupidity of it all

I wish I had the nerve to go out in public in my robe,you can't get more laid back than that,I hope to reach that state soon,getting there.When I was younger and my kids and husband were asleep,I did you to drive up to a drive through liquor store,but it was drive through.I use to drop spawn off at school in my jammies,if they gave me shit in the morning,I'd make a point to get out of the van just to humiliate them,no skin off my ass.

use to not you

I bet that was a sight

The look of horror on their faces was priceless.

"Duuude..your being very undude...or...They got us working in shifts! Your revolution is over Lebowski, the Bums lost!" I think that this is a test to see how much like the Dude you really are. If you are like the Dude, then you love the Dude...if you don't have any dudeness is you, then you hate the movie. "Give us da money lebowski!" MY Girlfreind cut off her toe!"

I love the Dude.I am the Dudette.

all you fuckers who didnt like the movie can suck my... well you know what. THIS MOVEI ROCKS!!!!1

cock? did you mean to say cock?

im pretty sure i wont be doing any cocksucking of cocksuckers who say cock-mouthed things about certain movies.

cockmouth. "damn, brush your teeth. you've got some mean cockmouth."

better than assmouth. thats the worst, especially if you get hung up on the recycling tip of it all.

I'm just pissed 'cause they stole my life and made a movie of it. The Dude abides!

there was a point where i would watch this movie twice a week. "this isn't vietnam Walter, we have rules!"

the Internet Movie Database tells me: --- In the TV version of the movie, there are many edited words, seeing as the word "fuck" is used over 200 times in the movie, but the most noticible change is when John Goodman smashes the car and screams "You see what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass?" In the TV version he says "You see what happens when you have fun with a stranger in the Alps?"

yes..i rented it for the 4th time recently...we drank and laughed our asses off. I think its one of the best acting jobs John Goodman and Jeff Bridges have ever done. and that must have been the best day of filming for John when he go to smash that car up. we go bowling where that was filmed frequently.

Just how frequently did they film it there?

Um ya, how can anybody say that the Big Lebouski isnt one of, if not the funneist movie ever made. Jeff Bridges(the dude) is a great actor, John Goodman (Walter Sobchek) plays a pefect Vietnam veteran, always complaing about how his "buddies died face down in the mud" and of course "Shomber Shabas." The Germans, haha, the germans were great "we will fucks you up." And JESUS, the funniest pedder ass iv seen, eight year olds dude. And let me tell all u who think the movie is stupid or boring, all u have to do is listen to the dialog that goes on between Walter(John Goodman) and the Dude(Jeff Bridges). I mean come on, iv seen it like 48 times and its still the funniest movie ive ever seen. Just got to listen and watch for all the small things. ITS THE GREATES MOVIE EVER. ALL U HATERS CAN SUCK MY DICK.

um ya wisper i love ur use of quotes but come on the line isnt "this isn't vietnam Walter, we have rules!" its "Smokey, this is bowling, not nam. We have rules."

MPM SUCK MY DICK. Just cause u dont have a sense of humor u have to rip on people who are funny. And in this case EXTREMELY FUNNY.

Very, very funny film. I especially enjoyed the bit about the Port Huron statement with the compromised first graph. But wait, are the Cohen Brothers saying that the Students for a Democratic Society were a bunch of braindead stoners???

God MPM, u just dont get it do u. Its clever comdey, not out right ridiculous stuff u see in movies like Dumb and Dumber or Austin Powers. Its suttle. And the Cohan brotheres are geniuses. Also MPM(dumb ass) the reason the word Dude is used so much in this wonderfull movie is because its his nick name, not a word but a name. Come on it like complaing that they use the "word" Walter to much or Lebowski. Don't be such a horses ass. -The man in the black pajamas, now that a worthy adversary, just me and charles eyeball to eyeball. -Who was in pajamas Walter -Shut the fuck up Donny -------Walter explaining to the Dude about the differences of Desert Storm and Vietnam.

MPM hasen't posted since 1999. I take it the Big Lebowski informs your entire world view. You're reacting like a christian who secretly doubts his faith. and it's the Cohen Brothers, not Cohan. Dude.

semillama, so what if it does. Its a great movie. And its not like i watch it all day. Just when im not doing anything, whitch is most of the time. And i just talk about him so when other people read this they dont read his and belive it.

lindenberry pancakes are the german flag of IHOP's international pancake selections. just a three and a half year late FYI.

i bowled for the last time this weekend at Hollywood Star Lanes. Some of my best bowling ever. My last 10th frame was a spare and a strike...what a way to go out. El Duderino, your so un-Dude like.

I don't know why but about 45 minutes into the movie I realized I hadn't laughed once and so I turned it off. I've been told by several people that if I were to have watched it with them, I would have laughed. Sem's betting me dinner that I'll laugh when I watch it with him. We shall see....

oh my. we're you sleep walking?

you're getting the aposthrophes all wrong today, patty.

Nice proofreading Nathe

yeah man, yeah!

bowling is great.

I go to collect my dinner this weekend. I am driving down to see kazoo and am bringing my copy of The Big Lebowski with me. Any and all laughs count. There's no way I am losing this one. You hear me, sweetie? No way!! No way in Heeyy-yellll!!!!!

Kazoo,you are in for a treat

I just hope that after today, I have the energy to laugh at anything.

Kazoo, did you laugh? Shoot, I've never smoked pot, and I loved this movie. Jesus is the best. Jesus made me laugh my ass off.

Yes. Yes, I did.

Victory is Mine!!

I finally went out in public in my jammies last month to the grocery store and Blockbuster,I lived my Lebowski fantasy:)

yeah! but did you open and drink some milk in a store? Or pay for things with a check dated for several years in the future? you're still my hero, thought :)

i finally saw this movie saturday night. i liked it quite a bit. i loved the classic coen brothers trippy film sequences set to music, especially the one where it's as if the camera lens is the eye of a bowling ball rolling down the lane toward the pins. great stuff. my favorite character was maude. she stole the show, next to john turretino. or however you spell his last name. my favorite part is when the dude mixes himself a "caucasian" at maude's place, using vodka, kahlua, and powdered coffee creamer. damn, that's dedication. btw, i had such a great weekend in dallas!

Jeez! Everyone comes to Dallas and doesn't call me. Sigh. I'm a pariah. :(

i keep forgetting you are up there

What part of texas is Droopy from?

Ft. Worth.

Tiggy, we do have plans to visit you next time we go up to Denton....gotta get my van fixed up before we can go anywhere, though. UMMMM, would you be willing to meet us in Denton if we weren't able to get all the way over there? I will keep you posted on when that is, probably late this fall, early winter.

I wish somebody would check on Droopy,I worry about him. Lord Texas is big.

yeah

I am Lord Texas, and I am big. If someone could provide me with a name, phone number, or address for the droopster I'd be happy to check on him. (via e-mail, of course)

Jeez. I fell for the "post on a dead thread" troll. But my offer still stands.

I don't think he has internet access these days, or at least he didn't for a while.

Doesn't Spider have his snail mail?

Hmmm.. By "via e-mail, of course" I meant to send me the info via e-mail. If someone gives me an address I'd be happy to find droopy and make sure he's OK.

Yeah, I have it, but dumbass Antigone didn't post his own email address, so how am I supposed to send it to him? Huh? Huh? Also, I haven't written to Droopy in, my God, a year? Maybe more? God, I suck. Antigone, if you write to him, tell him I'm sorry I'm such a lazy, shiftless ass.

Fuck the you!

Why don't you write to him first and ask him to reply. If he doesn't reply, dispatch me to the scene, chicka!

Because I don't feel like it. So YOU write him. Email fired and incoming.

You don't feel like it? Sheeeeeeit, I'm offering to do this for anyone who cares enough about him to check on him. If you don't care enough to write a letter, why should I drive 50 miles?

Um, you offered to contact him and asked for his address. I gave it to you. Now you won't go unless I care enough? You brought it up, you go or don't go. This has nothing to do with me.

i want droop's snail mail please.

Children, settle down! Spider, can you send me his last known address? I'm not sure if the one I have is current anymore.

I have his phone number. Want me to call him?

Don't answer that. I'll call him anyway.
