    I REALLY want to see- but I haven't had the time.
    It looks goddamn hillarious.
    I also heard "Shaun of the Dead" was wicked funny too..

    My two older sons saw it twice on their own. They told me I had to take their younger brother to see it. I hadn't heard anything about the movie, I didn't want to go.

    I'm glad they convinced me, although I did almost die at least once... from laughing.

    I have never even heard of this movie. What is it about?

    You might want to smoke up ahead of time - you'll enjoy it much more!

    Seriously, if you don't torture yourself waiting for the movie to "begin," you'll love it.

    Oh, definitely make sure you stay to watch the ending of the movie after the credits are done.

    Not really.

    I just wish more people saw this movie, because it is a classic.


    Go see it.


    It has to be the best deadpan movie of all time.

    Exactly.

    It's also Napoleon's favorite animal.

    I would have thought that this movie's creators had been hitting the pipe pretty hard while coming up with the concept and writing the screenplay -- until I found out that they're a couple of BYU film school grads. Who says you can't be visionary and sober at the same time. Wacky Mormons!

    I just got back from seeing the movie for the second time. It was even better this time.

    My thought process:

    What? Why did the Clippers play the Blue Jays? I thought that only happened in spring training... and even then within the same organization. Wait, didn't we play the Jays tonight...? OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH!

    Why not? Just tell them it wasn't over yet.

    The first time I saw it, there was actually a sign outside the theater that told everybody to stay.

    Dude I stayed, it was a late show, they didn't show the alternate ending. Almost everyone in the theatre stayed and the screen shut off. I gotta go see it again.

    You should go back there yelling and screaming that you want your money back, then go to a different theater and see it again. That would piss me off to no end. &po'd&

    This is the thing about living in a small state, it was only showing in one theatre in RI at one time, 10:20. I really didn't have much of a choice. And it was the most ................in expensive theatre too

    My 11 year old just asked me to take him to see it for the 3rd time. He wants me to bring a few of his friends so they can discuss the film.

    I'll be happy to take them...

    After seeing that exact scene, I am happy to be alive right now. I could not stop laughing and I could not breathe. I have never laughed harder in my life.

    I rented this tonight. It's the dumbest movie I've ever seen. I'd like the 90 minutes of my life back.

    As soon as I saw you post in this, I knew that would be your reaction. Its not a movie for everyone. Especially sexually driven folks, like yourself

    I really tried man, I did. I like dumb humor. I like to laugh. There were no expectations. Oh well.

    hey were his eyes closed for most of the movie? I couldn't tell.

    Kip = The Truckee River Killer from Reno 911. Nice career this guy is carving out for himself. And by the way, Reno 911 is the best comedy on television, not withstanding South Park which is in a class by itself.

    You're forgetting Drawn Togther and Chappelle's Show (but that's between seasons now so I'll let you slide)

    Re: Napoleon Dynamite

    sorry didn't think it lived up to the hype. And maybe that was the problem, everyone saying how amazing it was, so I expected alot. Don't get me wrong it was funny, very funny at moments. But I don't think I could watch the whole thing again, alot of reptitiveness. I always thought how good a movie would be that went nowhere, and now I see I was wrong. It seems like a guy thought of a bunch of jokes and made a movie to act as a vehicle for his stand alone jokes.

    Speaking of beating him up, the only part of the movie where I really had a good laugh was when he was standing at his locker and that big dude walks by and shoves him into it. It's what I wanted to do to him.
