Napoleon Dynamite

[dubby]

Has anybody seen the cult movie; Napoleon Dynamite?
The first time i seen it, i wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry, but after seeing it again, it made much more sense.
This movie has the most addictive quotes and memorable scenes.
If you are going to watch a movie this season, watch this. Mind you, you might need to watch it twice.
It helps if you like movies that are slightly off-beat humour, and if you like laughing at silly things. For example, theres one scene where Napoleons uncle throws a piece of steak at Napoleon while he (Napoleon) is dinking his mexican friend down the road.
Sounds stupid, but when you see it, you can't help but laugh yourself into an asthma attack. (well, i did).

I've watched it the other day, I might have to watch it again because I didn't find it as funny as most people say.

 

[Slappy]

the movie is awesome.
The time-machine scene is hilarious!

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

My girlfriend said it's a crap movie with a good character...don't know what to make of it as i havn't seen it.

Agreed. But if I watch it again, I'm sure I will appreciate it more.

 

[Red Bear]

I was expecting it to be awesome but it really wasnt that great.

 

[Big Pete]

Agreed with GoTheBears.

I was expecting an awesome movie but in the end it was a good movie but nothing spectacular.

The only good part of the movie was Napolian himself acting like the usual agnsty teen.

Funniest. Movie. Ever

 

[Jono078]

I found it better watching it the second time especially after watching the trailer for it.

The trailer actually tells you what the movie is about.

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

I actually went out and saw it tonight basically because of this thread - and i wasn't dissipointed. The film doesn't actually go anywhere over the 90 minutes, nor do the characters develop any real relationships throughout it, but there's somthing about the 'flat' delivery and the reactions of the characters that make it so unique and funny. Loved it.

 

[Misanthrope]

Eh, I don't much appreciate it. It achieves what it sets out to do, I guess, but I wasn't as amused as I was told I'd be.

 

[Knightmare]

You guys are geniused!

What was the movie actually about??

 

[Jono078]

In the trailer it talks about all of Napoleans skills and how he uses his skills to help himself and friends...

So yeah its about him and his 'skills' really...

Awesome movie. I loved it and even bought a "Vote for Pedro" t-shirt for my brother.

 

[Pazza]

Ground breaking movie in a time of crap like King Kong, Star wars 1,2,3 , Fantastic 4 etc.

Just the stuff he says, you gotta turn around and think, who comes up with this sh*t. For Example

Rex: At Rex Kwan Do, we use the buddy system. No more flying solo. You need somebody watching your back at all times. Second off, you're gonna learn to discipline your image. You think I got where I am today because I dressed like Peter Pan over here?
[points to Kip]
Rex: Take a look at what I'm wearing, people. You think anybody wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys? Forget about it. Last off, my students will learn about self respect. You think anybody thinks I'm a failure because I go home to Starla at night? Forget about it!

Don: Hey, Napoleon. What did you do last summer again?
Napoleon Dynamite: I told you! I spent it with my uncle in Alaska hunting wolverines!
Don: Did you shoot any?
Napoleon Dynamite: Yes, like 50 of 'em! They kept trying to attack my cousins, what the heck would you do in a situation like that?
Don: What kind of gun did you use?
Napoleon Dynamite: A freakin' 12-gauge, what do you think?

---------

Napoleon Dynamite: You know, there's like a butt-load of gangs at this school. This one gang kept wanting me to join because I'm pretty good with a bo staff.

-----------

Uncle Rico: What about your girlfriend?
Kip: Well, things are getting pretty serious right now. I mean, we chat online for, like, two hours every day so I guess you could say things are gettin' pretty serious.

--------

Napoleon Dynamite: You know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills... Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills.

 

[Parki]
