About the Dudeism being pathetic, well, you know, that's just like your opinion, man.
Level++ opinions are brain farts, but I guess that is just my opinion.
Level++ If I remember correctly, it's based off of Taoism (Is that some kind of eastern thing?)
mehpersonguy0 Far from it.
So pathetic
Hahahaha 😂 YES!
While John Turturro was only in the film for a few minutes his character was UNFORGETTABLE. He stole the scene every time. Love this movie it was one of those sleeper movies that became a cult classic.

Trippy dude. These facts like blew my mind man.
The Big Sleep, a noir that inspired this movie (hence the name) has a scene where there are gambling debts written on a sheet of paper dated September 11th. That's where it came from.
Holy shit - THANK YOU, man! Now _that's_ interesting trivia...
That one was a reference to the Pentagon.
I wish they would make a part 2. I love this movie.
my favorite movie of all time
fuck it dude, let's go bowling.
I'm big fan of this movie with its music awesome I. it's soundtrack.
Regarding number 7...the dude wrote a check for $.69 dated September 11...in a later scene his landlord (regarding the rent) tells him that the date was already the 10th...meaning the Dude post dated a check for half and half haha
why are the numbers sound effect so loud?
It's been over a fucking year, just make a part 2, man
- Oh, fuck it!
Do a Gone Girl video please!!
Also you never see the Dude bowling once in the movie. Donny bowled, Walter bowled, even Jesus Bowled but the dude is never seen going up to bowl
He's obviously a golfer.
This is true however you do see shots of the dude's bowling ball rolling down a lane IIRC
Well. There is a saying in filmmaking "never show the money." You take out everything you don't need, the superfluous.
So this saying is both literal and not completely literal, if you see the complexity of information man.
im pretty sure walter never bowled. what scene did he bowl in?

"Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man."
Probably my favorite line and the one I quote most often from the movie.
There are few comedy movies that get funnier the more times you watch . This is one of those all time greats.
Unless you talk about it getting funnier, which case the expectation makes it get less funny than you thought it would be,
Something Clever yes for sure. I watched it Sunday in theaters they had it playing I’m glad I could watch it in theaters and man it does get funnier each time you watch it lol. I had only seen parts of it before in the past but until recently I watched the whole thing and have been watching it like every week lol it’s hilarious
And Clerks
It does get funnier, further up the trail.

+Jack Parker Yes, I also wanna know! :B
Still no part 2
They have got information, man. New shit has come to light. It might be complex, have you not considered that... sir?
I'm sure there's a lot of ins, a lot of outs, a lot of what-have-yous.
I think a second one couldn't deliver the same quality again. Maybe it's better like it is.
My great grandmother was in this movie. Although she was a background character in the bowling scene. She's visible and she's in an important scene so it's cool.
Yeah right
She really tied the background together.
Which one is she
I think why we love this movie so much, there is a Jeffrey Lebowski in all of us waiting to break out. Living our fast pace lives, I'm sure we would all love to kick back and be "the Dude" every once in a while.

This is the movie I would pick if I only had one movie to take to a desert island.
Daweeni why would a island be in the desert?
I dunno man, good question but what youre really asking is why would a video recorder be on the island
I guess we're assuming a portable DVD player type of device with an indefinite battery recharging capacity (solar, or otherwise...)
Then again, he didn't say viewing the movie, just that he'd take it with him. If the committee of forcing people to desert islands made him pick one, for twisted little reasons known only to them.
You know, that's just like your opinion, man.

i actually searched youtube for movies that mention 911 and it was pretty interesting. You guys should check it out. Creepy stuff.
I've seen them all before, better yet read GHWBs speech in it's entirety very creepy.
milky55way2012 the new world order speech that you briefly see in the big lebowski while he is buying milk?
No kidding the Coen's agreed to the floor covering article. That was hilarious; completely priceless, they must laugh about it still today everytime they think about it. Filmmaking will take you to strange places.
So do burglaries
At least there was no chance that 9/11 would come into the conversation.
You ever seen 2 guys so successful yet so nervous in every interview? It's like they know god is watching and he's pissed. It won't end well for them.
I am a dudeist priest and have conducted a magnificent wedding in this church with a rug that that really tied the room together... so you know, say what you want about the tenets of Dudeism, but at least it's an ethos.
The Dude's check was also post-dated although it is for less than a dollar. After the grocvery scene, the landlord reminds him that "it's already the tenth".
TooLooze
That doesn’t make sense considering bush was in the background giving his new world order speech and that was done on the 11th.

Coffee shop in Reservoir Dogs is Pat and Lorraine's in Eagle Rock California, not Johnnies in L.A.
zomghax12 And, the restaurant where Gone in 60 Seconds was filmed at Quality Café, which has since been closed down.
What about the coffee shop in Mulholland Drive. It has a similar vibe to these other ones.
Actually Dudeism is a modern form of Taoism (and a good one imo) so it's far from pathetic.
The Dude abides.
gr8effect
Or maybe Tao is ancient form of do-deism?
May the Dude be with you brother
That Reservoir Dogs frame is from Pat and Lorraine's in Eagle Rock ya goofus.
peppergod The café where Mr Orange meets up with his superior is Johnie’s Coffee Shop, but the breakfast scene is at Pat and Lorraine's... we cut to the wrong shot, FAIL :/
CineFix I had wondered the same thing, but also thought - that being a 90s movie and all - that surely there were multiple coffee shops used in the film :D (I live right down the street from Pat & Lorraine's. Excellent breakfasts!)
absolutely nothing wrong with dudeism.

Not really a massive thing, but the checkout attendant during the cheque writing is the Actor Anna Gunn, who plays Skyler White on Breaking Bad. not a big thing, just one of those faces you just cant unsee now
Not exactly... www.imdb.com/name/nm0482186
New shit come to light, man
Shame on you for not catching on to the fact that there was indeed a reason they focused on that check he wrote. Bush gave the "aggression will not stand" speech in 1990 not 1991, thus the Dude postdated the check by a year because he had no money.
What's even weirder is that his landlord later remarks "it's already the 10th". How/why did Bush give his speech a day before it actually happened, man?
I love how my dad and I were talking about the Big Lebowski and then an hour later this video is in my recommendations

@@duderama6750 I know they are lol
@@callanightshade8079 Well OK then.
Sept 11th, 1991: Bush denounces Saddam Hussein. One problem though - 9/11 had nothing to do with Saddam Hussein, so not really a coincidence.
Coincidentally, Saddam Hussein was a target of the post-9/11 war spree - maybe because Saddam allegedly tried to kill Bush Jr's Daddy.
Some fun facts.
About 77% of US soldiers invading Iraq believed they were doing so in retaliation for 9/11, according to polls taken at the time.
The famous 'toppling of the Saddam statue' event which was widely publicised in the media as proof the invasion - I mean 'liberation' - was welcomed by the locals turned out to be a staged event by a US PR firm. They even flew in Iraqi actors from the US to pose as locals cheering at the US troops. Newspapers were also caught photoshopping in large crowds. In reality it was a non event, as far as the locals were concerned.
Of all the conspiracy theories of the 00's the theory that Saddam was conspiring to manufacture and deploy WMD's cost the most lives (approx a million). This theory was later proven to be wrong.
The conspiracy theory that Bush was behind 9/11 has so far cost no lives.
theawecabinet
Plus we have the invasion of Iraq to thank for ISIS!
@jBone4400 - September 11th, 1990, actually. What's really weird is that the landlord later remarks that "it's already the 10th"... not the 11th yet! Conspiracy??

Do we ever actually see the Dude bowl at all?
Also, has anybody ever noticed that pretty much everything that goes wrong in the entire movie (including the first visit to "the other Jeffrey Lebowski") is Walter's fault?
The real Walter fucked up every road trip. Except Banff, he was pretty cool there. Now I wouldn't ride with him as far as the nearest 7/11. He's just an @$$hole.

Hey careful man, there's a beverage here!
I´m sorry, I wasn´t listening.
The screen writing of this film is excellent. The mention of things every so often like Vietnam and China man. It makes it even better when watching it more than once.
How are you gonna shame someone for wanting to live in peace?
Jeff Bridges said that during the Gutterballs dream sequence he brought his wife to the set and because he was, initially, supposed to float between the girls' legs (later just digitally superimposed as they were shot separately) that his wife found out and went to the makeup department and so got all the girls to loosely stuff their crotches with fake pubic hair to look as unappealing as possible.
Oh my God
Jeff brought his camera to the set and took a lot of upskirt pictures that day, while his daughters watched.
He was post dating his 60 cent check. Here's number Eight. The dude could afford his place, the liquor, and the pot due to the fact he was the trust fund son of the guy who invented the Rubik's Cube. True story.
A part 2 would really tie this series all together man.
But all we're gonna get is some lame shit about Jesus, the pedo.
The check thing is still weird because the First Iraq War happened between Aug 1990 and Mar 1991.
So was The Dude post dating his check? 🤔
This whole video was based on the Wikipedia page of the movie. Real great research fellas.
Joe Joeson Yeah, it's funny how almost everything in the world is based on wiki articles.
DrRestezi And to think how much energy my highschool english teachers wasted trying to keep the world from using it....

Here's one: the dude only says two sentences (8 words) to Donny in the whole movie
It's 3 sentences and 9 words. I got curious and investigated it. He says "My rug." "I'm going home, Donny." "Thank you, Donny."

Number 8: The song featured in this film called "I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in" (Kenny Rogers) makes the most excellent use of backward masking ever. Find out for yourself and be stunned.
The whole movie is chock full of good music
I noticed that but never got it, thanks.
The movie is a brilliant study of passivity vs. aggression.
Bonus thing you didnt know: you can clearly see the writer Charlie Kaufman in the background of the Dude's landlord's dance scene
There is no Charlie Kaufman. He's just another Coen brother. They keep him around as a spare in case one or the other gets smothered by his mother's tits.
