Re: The Big Lebowski
What "type" of humor is it? This is not a knock, but if you think this is just an "average" movie, you definitely do not "get it".

Re: The Big Lebowski
This movie sits with Scarface at the top of the pantheon of laughably overrated films.

Adolescent "wacky" humour, IMO.

Re: The Big Lebowski
What is there to get? The movie certainly had some funny parts, but I don't think it was really making a compelling or interesting point, per se.
Reminded me of English classes in high school or college, where people extracted "meaning" out of random situations and themes, because they really wanted to find something deep in the book, story, etc. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't that I didn't like the movie, I thought it was good, but top-10, give me a break. |

Re: The Big Lebowski
Top 10 may be exaggerating, but it is one of my favorites.
I'll try to write something more to explain where I am coming from, but I am at work.. |

Re: The Big Lebowski
So I take it you are more of a RushHour fan, rather then Super Troopers.
To each his own... If the bigL is not a brilliant comedy, please let me know what you consider to be? |

Re: The Big Lebowski
Super Troopers is funny, but thats because it actually has funny jokes. Big L is just sort of stupid, I don't hate the movie, I just don't get the intense pleasure some people have gotten out of watching it, seriously, its not that funny.
God, I am waiting for The Dude to come in here and flame all of us. |

The whole bowling dance number was possibly one of the weirder things that I have ever seen in a movie. I hope nobody thinks Monty Python movies/shows/jokes are stupid. I might have to "throw down" if anyone goes down that road. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] EDIT- Super Troopers is funny, also. The writing for that movie was surprisingly good. I was shocked at how well at was written, the first time I saw it. I had written it off, and never intended to watch it. Thankfully, a friend of mine insisted that I see this movie. |
