Napoleon Dynamite?

[jubaiweaponx]

I was referring to watching with a group,cause oh yeah idiot,god .That`s funny?

[MrEastSide]

OK, OK, If you put it that way I can understand. I thought you meant the constant string of idiocy throughout those movies made you laugh period and I was like OK. But, watching it with friends may be better.

[jubaiweaponx]

yeah with friends ,you know a movie to have to keep many people occupied
I admit it`s mindless humor and your correct ,dick and fart jokes ,but hell at the end of a work week sometimes I don`t want to have to figure it out ,sometimes I just want to laugh and I admit dynamite did provide a few laughs as well,point taken.

I like the Kevin Smith films too, but also Napoleon.

[jubaiweaponx]

maybe i`ll get drunk and try to watch it again,who knows but i tried before and couldn`t get thru dynamite ,i`m an optimist i`ll try again ,lol

[jubaiweaponx]

if i get pissed though i`m popping in grandma`s boy or waiting for some batwing action ,lmao

[KenThompson]

You know its sad when I say this but I'd take Jersey Girl over this any time. I couldn't watch the whole movie and both my brothers keep telling me how great this was. I just don't get it.

[Canada]

I hardly ever turn off any movies, but i turned it off in 5 min. If it will sell and it's Blu Ray exclucive (Fox) that is all that counts.

[KenThompson]

Of all the movies I've ever rented only twice have I turned it off without finishing. Kung Pow and Napolean. Not bad considering about 30 years of rentals.

[jubaiweaponx]

guess the beaver nunchucks or whatever didn`t do it for you ? lmao

guess we ride in the same boat ,lol

I can't believe I sat through that entire movie for the big payoff, a stupid dance. I know people claim to like it, but I think it is just so unfunny that people can't believe something so stupid could be made into a film and laugh in disbelief. I tried to get the friend that recommended that movie to me to refund my purchase but it didn't happen. I normally like stupid comedies, that one must require experiences or acquaintances I have never had.

You can get Nacho Libre. Jared Hess directed both and used many of the same people behind the scenes on both films.

I am taken aback that so many people don't like this movie. So why are all of you commenting on it then? I would think only those interested in this movie would comment.

Anyway, for those of you that didn't get it: This movie is about the underdog that saves the day, is the hero in the end. Nice guys do finish last. That is what this movie is about. Anyone notice that he did hook up with a totally hot babe in the end? The movie is too sweet, awesome, heck yeah!!!

I was sober when I watched this movie and yes it was awesome. Guess most of you that don't like it were not even born in '82...

As I said, I felt duped into watching it. My buddy knew how much I like Lebowski and he told me several times that this was just as good of a cult classic. I knew better, but I finally agreed to watch it. It's not even in the same hemisphere.

Uh, yeah. I got that. It's not rocket science. It's a silly story, that's stylistically annoying in my opinion, with bathroom-level humor. The twist at the end is pretty entertaining but doesn't come close to validating the first hour and a half of torture.

Nice guys do finish last. That is what this movie is about.

uh...shouldnt that be nice guys finish first? Or nerdy losers get the babe in the end?

Hey, it's fine if you like this film. More power to ya. But it doesn't give you bragging rights over those of us who don't. We're not exactly talking about Grapes of Wrath or Streetcar Named Desire here.

I guess a lot of people on here don't have a sarcastic and dry sense of humor, thus didn't like this movie. I didn't like Grapes of Wrath. The Big Lebowski, sucked...

[jubaiweaponx]

it`s not just about weather people liked it or not this is a place of free thinking and people are encouraged to voice their opinion (in agreement or not )
remember this isn`t the AVS forum

[jubaiweaponx]

when you bring up a thread ,expect both sides of the coin ,i for one rather enjoyed the difference of opinions here and had some good discussions about it
