how did I miss this 1998 cohen brothers movie? just saw it the other night and laughed hard throughout. there are so many wonderful lines that I just gotta see it again and agian. I've never seen the "f bomb" dropped so many times in a movie. ever.

my favorite line is "does the pope sh_t in the woods?". but there are hundreds of other lines that are quite hysterical.

and for some reason, I really crave a white russian throughout the movie.

I hear there is an annual festival in honor of this cult movie.

here is "the short fn version"... don't look if you don't like the eff word, pleeze... [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqtgfjkB6Pg"]YouTube - The Big Lebowski - F_cking Short Version[/ame]

oh, my other favorite line...

when the dude is being thrown into the back of a car...

"careful man! there's a beverage involved here!.." and he never spills a drop of his white russian.

I used to looooooove white russians.

Picture this........one of my best friends for like ahundred years and I where in Tunica, MS with a friend that looooooooooooved to play poker (she could afford to, only child, no children, not married, everything paid for, inherited a ton of $$$, grayt job) and we would go with her, well........ my friend and I were not big gamblers so we sat at the poker machines at the bar, drink tons of white russians and could put in a $20.00 and play forevera and get free drinks (my kind of deal!) so were kept playing, and playing and playing! I go back to the room and leave her up playing.....she comes up later (believe me, I heard her!) and goes to bed. The next morning she is about to die.........sick stomach, nauseous, and she says "I think I have the flu!" and I say "yeah, the russian flu!!!:funn:

I will take this opportunity to say that I've always thought Jeff Bridges was way underrated as an actor. From Last Picture Show to The Big Lebowski to Fearless to The Door in the Floor, he has always been consistant--and superb.
The line about the Pope was something we always said in high school; when I heard it spoken in Lebowski I almost felt as if plagiarism was involved, but it being the Coen Brothers I let it slide.
The Dude abides. I don't know about you but I take comfort in that. ;-)

A University of Kentucky tradition was drinking White Russians before getting in line for drop/add (anybody remember drop/add?), then heading straight back to the same bar to resume after geting our schedules screwed up somehow!

I've never seen it! Even the DVD queen, Beach Jacket, doesn't own it. I will definitely clue her in on it, she'll find it on sale somewhere and buy it, and we'll watch it.

Thanks for the recommendation, Tootsie! We loves us some movies at our house, especially when there are no Gator basketball or football games on TV.:biggrin:

so, did the dargs frequent this fest?

Lebowski Fest is a celebration of all things Lebowski and includes:
?Unlimited Bowling
?Costume, Trivia, Farthest Traveled, and Bowling Contests
?Celebrity Appearances ?White Russians, Sarsaparillas, and Oat Sodas
?Screening of the film
?What-Have-You

main fest in Louisville, and others in NY, LA, Vegas and Austin! maybe we'll plan a little vacay around one of these fests someday. a white russian vacay.

No- the best events, like the bowling, sell out in a few days.:( Stef's house is right around the corner from the "office" for the festival- there is always some sort of fun art car parked out front.
