So I guarantee this post will get me killed...again
Mood:  incredulous
Now Playing: The Zutons - You will You won't
OK, I realize I have used that title on a previous post. So what. This is my blog, I do what I want. If you don't like it then start your own blog and try to make it better than mine. I dare you. Ok, now that I used my body's entire testosterone supply to provide that tiny sample of machismo, I will move on to my post. So I finally saw Napoleon Dynamite in its entirety. And you know what? I think it was pretty good. NOT THE FUNNIEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME like some people make it out to be. Sorry, this movie is NOWHERE near Monty Python's Search for the holy grail, Dumb and Dumber, Half Baked (when stoned, or even when not stoned), Zoolander, The Big Lebowski, and honestly, I could probably name another dozen or so movies that are funnier than Napoleon Dynamite. That does not make it a bad movie. In fact, I think it is the funniest movie of the year. And I laughed a whole lot when I saw Team America: World Police. Something about puppets having wild sex that makes people laugh. I dunno. This movie had its spots. When he got the suit. When he danced to Jamiroqoui. When his tots got smashed. There are many more. But frankly, this movie had WAY to many stupid moments of silence or scenes that lack dialogue. What am I supposed to be doing during those moments? Laugh at the character's appearance? Sorry, but there is only so much I can do of that before I start feeling like a manipulated dumbass. I get the jokes. No seriously, I get them. They just are not that funny. Caleb, don't try to insult me for not thinking so highly of this film, in fact YOU are the one I am blaming for me being disappointed in this film with your "greatest movie of all-time" and "I laughed like a little girl" lines. You gave me grandiose dillusions. This movie gets a rating of pretty funny from me. I like the Lafawnduh thing. The way he gets manipulated into wearing gangsta clothes. That is hilarious. Or whenever Napoleon has to feed tina. I guess the biggest disappointment has to be Napoleon (who is actually played brilliantly by Jon Heder). You would think that the title charcter would be the funniest right? WRONG. DEAD WRONG. Everyone around him is so much funnier. Especially his dead-pan buddy Pedro. And Uncle Rico. He was funny too. This movie definitely wins my soon-to-be awarded biggest disappointment of the year award. The hopes were so high, so marveslously high. Then, like everything else in america, they came crashing down. So sad. Good flick though. You won't see me wearing a Vote for Pedro shirt anytime soon. But it was good.

DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!!!!! MAKE UP YOUR OWN MIND!




I don't know how I keep doing it, but soon I will have offended almost everyone and will have succesfully alienated myself from all people on the planet. Hazaa!

I was hoping to see it, but it's not coming out in my town. But I'll probably find some illegal way of watching it to make a comment.

Woah, woah, woah. Please point out to me when I ever called this the greatest movie ever. Never. And for the record, I did laugh like a little girl when I saw it. It's funny. I told you you needed to watch it. And it was, in your words, "the funniest movie of the year." Which I agree with. But please, for the love of God, if you want to watch an over-hyped movie before your "biggest disapointment of the year" award, go and see that piece of trash "Garden State." That movie shows that you should never listen to women when deciding what movie to see. Psuedo-intellectual, uber-average, decent-soundtracked garbage with one of the most cliched endings to a movie you will ever see. Once again, I never called Napoleon Dynamite the greatest movie ever. Expect your very own defamation suit very soon, Whidbey trash.
