I’ll never understand how John Goodman was NOT nominated for an Oscar for this movie. His performance really tied this film together, did it not??

[@watershipup7101]

Agreed

[@genjis5155]

It sure did.

[@AnuViation]

Well, you know... that's just like... yer opinion... Man...

[@TTM9691]

Um, maybe because it wasn't THAT great? When people babble about the Oscars, do you actually know anything about acting? Not that John Goodman isn't a great actor, but this was nothing special, jesus christ. When Gene Hackman doesn't get nominated for The Conversation, THAT'S when you act surprised, not when it's the dopey "Big Lebowski", jesus christ almighty you're hilarious. People and their hilarious Oscar "outrage". 😅 And always by people with the worst taste, and who know the least about movies and acting and basically anything other than being a lumpen couch potato with a remote control. "The Big Lebowski" was a DISAPPOINTMENT after "Fargo", cult of Lebowski or no cult of Lebowski. This was the year of Saving Private Ryan and The Thin Red Line; "Lebowski" wasn't even a BLIP on the radar that year. It's so hilarious that you'd think a movie like "Lebowski" would be considered for an Oscar. "Fargo"? Different story. That one has got Oscar written all over it (and sure enough, it was nominated for a bunch, and won some, quite rightly) . You can't tell the difference, huh? Hilarious.

[@scipioafricanus5871]

You are not wrong, the Walther character was just too much of an a-hole for Oscar tastebuds.

[@jeremiahfrench94]

I think the most underrated line is "I'm.. just gonna go find a cash machine..."

[@VelvetVoice]

@@jeremiahfrench94 Also agree. I’ve always felt that the ‘cash machine’ line flew unnoticed under most folks’ radar, just judging from the invariably muted reactions from virtually all the different audiences I’ve happened to watch it with. To be fair, it *is* one of those movie quotes that you could totally innocently drop, fully contextually, into any conversation whilst out on the town, and nobody would bat an eyelid, whilst you enjoy a crude little in-joke moment all to one’s self. You know, just if that happens to be the kind of thing that one enjoys doing…

[@joecrafted]

The diarrhea movie is probably “Trainspotting” one of Ewan McGregor’s first movies. So glad you reacted to Big Lebowski, one of my fav movies…

Trainspotting is to gross, I can't watch it. Great soundtrack though.

[@CousinWhatIsIt]

[@ReasonableRam]

Good call, the only thing coming to mind was Dumb and Dumber but that scene is later in the movie instead of the beginning and Mary has already seen Dumb and Dumber so I knew it wasn't that one.

[@najhoant]

I love how this is basically a combined noir thriller and stoner comedy

[@christopherwall2121]

My favorite little detail might just be that Walter gets dressed up to attend the landlord's recital, like he's going to a Broadway show. If nothing else, he commits to whatever he is doing at any time.

It should've won loads of awards, including the Best Picture Oscar. It's many times better than Shakespeare in Love.

Walter?

[@jlinkous05]

A movie where everything happens yet nothing actually happens.

[@MoviesandCoffee]

It's one of those comedies that only gets funnier the more times you watch it

[@WarGhoulKharas]

Two bits of trivia: 1) Jeff Bridges has pointed to this as his favorite role, even proclaiming "I am The Dude." 2) The song over the end of the credits is "Dead Flowers" by Townes Van Zandt. It's a Stones cover, owned by Allen Klein, who gave it to them to use for free after "I HATE THE FUCKIN' EAGLES!" line.

[@d4mdcykey]

He gave an amazing performance in 10 Cloverfield Lane too

[@brianboye8025]

There are so many films with John Goodman. Barton Fink jumps to mind. Best line "You never listen".

[@r_r_rye2441]

Barton Fink needs more recognition. I think it's a movie all creative and artistic people should watch to gain a little humility.

[@larrytodaro8460]

Donnie not getting a strike on his last ball was an omen...

[@mmeettwwoo]

Not omen, that was cause of his heart attack. Omen to viewers only.

"I mean... he doesn't use it..." What do you need that for Dude? 🤣🤣🤣 It's one of the best lines from Donny.

[@erickelly8875]

I love how, through the whole movie, Walter yells no matter where he is....except in the theatre where he actually tries to remember to be quiet. A low key nod of respect to the art

[@user-ug4mc4dn7z]

[@redrick8900]

Sure, not Star Wars, this thing.

[@houdin654jeff]

One of those movies that either you click with or you don’t… and thankfully, it seems to click with lots of people. My favorite detail in the whole movie is Philip Seymour Hoffman’s portrayal of Brandt. He is about the only new person The Dude meets who actually calls him The Dude or Dude. Virtually everyone else calls him some variation of his “real” name (Jeff, Jeffrey, Mr Lebowski, etc), but Brandt with his proper speech uses The Dude’s chosen moniker. The juxtaposition is hilarious.

[@travisepsteen3234]

I’ve seen this movie more times than I can remember and it gets funnier everytime. So many small little details that you notice on multiple watches. In the beginning, the goons broke into the dudes place asking “where’s the fu#$ing money Lebowski?” At the end, the dude does the same thing to the Big Lebowski. The dialog is brilliant. The ever evolving situation is crazier by the minute and the cast is phenomenal! Also, a quick note, the reason Walter keeps telling Donny to shut the f#&@ up, is an inside joke with the Cohen brothers. Steve’s character in Fargo never shut up so they thought it would be hilarious to tell him to shut up all the time in this film. Comedic masterpiece!

[@martinbraun1211]

Fun facts: the F-bomb is dropped over 260 times and you never see the Dude bowl!

When Donny is dying you can see how much Walter cares for him, and you can hear it in his voice. As for the dialogue, every word is from the script-every "um", "uh", stutter, all from the script! And I think the diarrhea scene is from Dumb and Dumber. Glad you liked this, I've been a huge fan for 20 years!

[@tommyboy049]

Walter always acts and sounds crazy, but if you notice he always had his friends back. He actually cared about them. Especially Donny. Yeah, he always ripped on him but at the ending fight scene you see his attitude change by keeping Donny calm, saying there's nothing to worry about, and holding him back staying out of the situation.

[@henrikeatworld]

I usually don't watch full movie reactions, but The Big Lebowski is so close to my heart and your reaction was great :) I'll never get tired of this movie

Donnie’s heart attack was actually foreshadowed because one of the signs of a heart attack is wrist pain, which is also why he missed a pin

I would say it's foreshadowed by strike, strike, should have been a strike. But yeah, same thing.

"His laugh! So awkward." RIP to Phillip Seymour Hoffman. Though he's only in TBL for a few scenes, he's fantastic. His face when Bunny starts going off is so good, and his horrified laugh 🤣🤣🤣 Also, he always calls The Dude Dude 👍 (and I like to think he was in the dark about Lebowski's scheme)

What I love about Coen brother's films is the fact that they are so dense, and that lends itself well to multiple rewatches. Initially, I thought Walter was really unlikable, but on 2nd viewing, knowing what I know about the story, he became my favourite character.

[@harryrabbit2870]

Great reaction. Love the Coen Bros. All of their movies seem to be about ordinary people in extraordinary situations. Since you saw "Fargo," you saw Steve Buscemi's character who was an compulsive talker, and the inside joke is that this time he's always being told to shut up. Watching you laugh through this was a treat. Well done.

Another good one is, The Interview, where he interviews a pop star and everything they say to one another are LIES.

So lovely seeing the next generation see this film. I saw this on the big screen when it first came out and it was my favourite film for like 2 years after. Sometimes a film comes out and it feels like they made it just for you. Got the same feeling from Scott Pilgrim vs The World.

1:07 "i haven't looked into the plot." wonderful. there is no plot. 😎

If you love Steve Buscemi's acting and want a reason to love him more - he was a fireman in NY before he became an actor. When 9/12 happened he went to a fire station in Manhatten and volunteered for weeks, doing whatever he could to help out. He's a real good man.

You also saw John Goodman in "O Brother" as Big Dan Teague. Great reaction to a great movie - I have a fond memory of dressing as The Dude for Hallowe'en one year (in my mum's beige house gown and a wig) and having "The Dude abides!" shouted at me while walking around town. Since the Coen brothers are really doing it for you, I'd like to suggest either "Burn After Reading" or even better "Barton Fink" - the latter has John Turturro in the starring role, who played Jesus here and Pete in "O Brother" (and also has John Goodman in another big 'n' shouty role).

Great reaction. For another excellent Coen brothers comedy, try ‘The Hudsucker Proxy’. It’s a quirky story and the cast is fantastic, including one of the last roles by Paul Newman. For whatever reasons the movie didn’t register as powerfully with the public as most of their others, but it’s still great. As far as I’m concerned, it deserves more exposure, and reactions will help do that, because it has all the usual Coen brothers magic.

I've been looking forward to this for a while. I own three different versions of this on DVD, I've been to three Lebowski Fests (winning 2nd place in the bowling contest at one and 3rd place in the costume contest at another), my old bowling team called ourselves the "Urban Achievers," and I just bought a new Lebowski shirt a couple weeks ago.

I saw Raising Arizona (1987) as an kid with my dad and found it hilarious. Of course, i didn't know who The Coen Brothers were back then.

One of Jeff Bridges' most iconic films and roles. As "The dude", it sort of matches his off screen personality and also he's surrounded by a great cast. Most wouldn't believed that this was selected for preservation in the U.S. National Film Registry by the Library of Congress. Huge honor for any cult classic and it is much deserved. There is a spinoff, "The Jesus Rolls" (2020). It's also the remake of a French film Going Places (1974), John Turturro reprises his role as Jesus Quintana and is writer/director of it

I think the only time I've ever watched this movie I've been sober, and have loved it. It's even funnier with a little drinkie drink in me, and your reactions are f&*king priceless! I haven't laughed this hard in a while.

[@thevilliageidiot1794]

I remember slipping out of work with my coworkers to see this movie in the theater. Great choice! For the film with the diarrhea scene you were trying to recall, was it "Trainspotting"? Thank you for the reaction.

[@TheLanceUppercut]

The Big Lebowski is like this complex mystery story DESPERATELY trying to happen around a protagonist that just can't be bothered. I'm here for it every time.

Burn After Reading is also from The Coen brothers and its super funny as well.

I really hope Larry learned his lesson. That must have been so hard for Larry to watch

I love this movie. There used to be, around 2014, a store called The Little Lebowski, in Greenwich Village selling movie memorabilia. The owner wore a bathrobe. 😂 I used to take friends there when they came to NY to visit.

[@shigshug8581]

This is an amazing review! I felt like I'm sitting next to you watching on the cinema, thanks for sharing!

[@charles7836]

I found it hilarious that when the director and production team were trying to figure out what Lebowski would routinely wear, they decided to raid Jeff Bridges' closet, LOL. And whenever you see Lebowski's jellies, they really belong to Jeff Bridges. I think he still has them.

So glad you enjoyed this. Two other offbeat, funny, character-driven, overlooked Coen Brothers films to check out are "Burn After Reading" (starring Francis McDormand, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and J.K. Simmons) and the underrated, slapstick "The Ladykillers" (starring Tom Hanks and a very funny J.K. Simmons).

[@andreabruson5558]

I totally agree that Ladykillers is so underrated! also Hail, Caesar! is a very good one.

[@motorcycleboy9000]

Brown alert: Ladykillers has a small IBS subplot

[@trevorgoddard2278]

One of the reasons "The Lady Killers" rates so low is because it is an Americanised remake of a British black and white film. When the Brothers stick to their strengths the results are amazing.

[@walterpanovs]

@@trevorgoddard2278 Yes, the original is considered a classic comedy but is not nearly as colorful or funny as the Coen Brothers' version. And the music is great too, It's a splendid slapstick comedy and features standout performances, particularly by Irma P. Hall as the elderly lady targeted by the absurd group of thieves.

[@trevorgoddard2278]

@@walterpanovs You are probably right but those of us who grew up with the original and have watched it 3 or 4 times can't help but to compare it and complain about the differences. It is quite possible that people who have studied Homer's oddessy will complain about "Oh Brother Where Art Thou".

[@JLPayne_78]

He doesn't "Love milk." He drinks White Russians. 😆 So glad you gave this movie another chance. It's totally worth watching. The Big Lebowski , Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? are my main three comfort comedies. 👍

11:19 The frequency with which I use this quote and gif cannot be overstated. 28:21 This one too, on occasion. 20:52 One of the reasons this movie is a Classic is the narration and appearance of The Great Sam Elliott. 25:33 Gotta love the soundtrack here, Santana - Oye Como Va. A classic. 27:28 Another classic, Kenny Rogers & The First Edition - Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In). He was a GIANT Country Star, but this one was from earlier in his career when he was trying to make a go of Rock music. History will decide if the pivot was correct. 28:45 Yeah, cops in the US get away with an inordinate amount of absolutely heinous sh!t, especially against minorities.

No one has done The Hudsucker Proxy by the Coen Brothers. It. Is. Brilliant! Jennifer Jason Leigh is amazing, great cast, great story, very film noir. Put that one on your watch/review list!
