EXACTLY! I think movies like this one and Office Space are really funny for those who know or work with people that are very similar to the characters.catatac wrote:To analize it though, I think the reason it worked for me is because I knew those characters (Napolean, Kip, Ricco, etc.) in high-school...

Too funny Celtic Cat .. I have a few friends who are exactly like that. Its either NEW non popular stuff or they suck/sold outCelticCat wrote:I suppose you are the kind of guy who loves a band until they get famous, then bash them for selling out and never listen to them again?Bay Area Cat wrote:Did anyone see Sideways? That was by far my favorite comedy of the year... but that was before the bandwagon filled up. If I saw it now, after everyone talking about it over and over and over, I probably would dislike it out of spite.

I have found one adult woman who really liked the movie and could quote a lot of it, but it is a huge hit with teenage girls-at least my 15 year old daughter and her friends. They quote the movie constantly-and constantly annoy my wife-who isn't a Napoleon fan.jagur1 wrote:One question on Napolean Dynamite. Has anyone found a women who likes this movie? I get comments like this, "That's two hours I wish I had back to do something else"
I guess we're all wired differently-this really stood out for me back when we went to see Dumb and Dumber with some friends when it first came out. I literally had never laughed so hard at a movie-tears rolling down the face laughter. And it was the same for others. I thought the guy in front of us was going to die when the scene with the dead parakeet with the scotch taped holding on his head came on.
But the folks that went to the movie with us...never cracked a smile-thought is was the most stupid thing they ever saw.
Now the flip-side. My inlaws were over for Christmas dinner. After eating we were all sitting around the living room watching TV and taking it easy. Suddenly somebody puts the Lifetime network on. I know I'm in trouble here as my wife, dad inlaw, mother in law, sister in law, are all big fans. For the next two hours they're engrossed in this sad sack made for TV movie about a heroic mother figure, worthless father (the men are always worthless on Lifetime), gay son, pregent daughter movie. Now I know what hell is like!

Carl: So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one---big hitter, the Lama---long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
I swear, it's like I'm playin' cards with my brother's kids or somethin'. You nerve-wrackin' sons-a-bitches.'

Napolean Dynamite just goes to show that there can still be a humorus movie that people enjoy with out all the vulgar and crude scenes Hollywood has to put in almost all other shows.
