1. MTV and their crazy movies.

I liked it, but Dumb and Dumber is still my favorite "stupid movie"

[CanuckAmok]

2. Yes, geeeez.

n/t

[HEyHEY]

3. DY-NO-MITE!

[BulletproofLandshark]

4. "Tina, you fat lard!"

"Come get some dinner!"

[Shine]

5. "Just follow your heart...that's what I do."

I just LOVE that line and esp his monotone way of saying it! He's such a dork, but he's a lovable dork.

Vote for Pedro.

6. I love Napoleon Dynamite...some of my

friends do not appreciate great art....

7. It really grew on me

First time, I was a bit "meh" with it (although I was in stitches with the time machine). Then I watched it a couple of months later with my brother & really liked it.

"I see you're drinking 1%. Is that 'cause you think you're fat? 'Cause you're not. You could be drinking whole if you wanted to."

9. Me too!

My friend told me to check it out and I was the same way. When my btother got the dvd for xmas, I watched it with him and thought it was absolutely hilarious.

8. Yes, I have. It got on my nerves. I think the appeal is to the 35 and

younger crowd.

[realisticphish]

10. nope

im 20, and i HATE it

[Thtwudbeme]

11. That's interesting; I hadn't thought of the 23 and below crowd

I was forced to sit through part of it because of my Gen X or whatever they are inlaws....They were laughing hysterically, and I was thinking, "Shit, I guess I'll go to bed...."

I don't care for Gen X art, movies, or music...not sure why....just the whole cultural scene turns me off.

12. I consider it the "Clerks" of the present time.

It's so good! everyone is hung up, but they don't give themselves a hard time about it. for anyone who owns it...what is the farmer saying while they are eating egg sanwiches and drinking egg orange juice?

18. "I found some arrowheads over there, think they were Shoshone"

- Or close enough.

[Blue_Tires]

13. i liked it as well

[Taxloss]

14. Yeah, weird film.

It looked a lot like that makers wanted to make a cult film - blatantly so. Enjoyable and funny in parts. Bizarre in other parts. Badly paced, with no plot arc to speak of. A curiosity.

[BigMcLargehuge]

15. Hated it

two snaps down.

[NYYFan]

16. One of the dumbest movies I've EVER SEEN

Next time I want to waste over an hour of my time, I'll remember this movie, and do something constructive instead.

It was too stupid to make sense.:boring:

[terrya]

17. Yes...it's one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

This "comedy" was about as fucking funny as brain cancer. For me, "Napolean Dynomite" is one of the worst films ever made.

[Loonman]

19. Instant Classic

One for the ages.

[Flying Dream Blues]

20. Am over 40, was prepared to HATE it, and LOVED it.

I was coerced into watching it, and it completely won me over almost immediately. I couldn't believe how well it channeled teenage insecurity, incurable geekism, and just the humanity of what can be the bad luck of birthright. And yet, in spite of everything, the guy is a hero. Unbelievable. And utterly hilarious.

[Loonman]

21. I find "Napoleon" a great antidote to effete pseudo-intellectualism

Plus it's got a good soundtrack. And Diedrich Bader.
