Big Lebowski: why do people say it's the most quotable movie?
 
I don't think I've ever gotten through that movie, but I hear so much about it that I think I'm missing something....BUT the other night I put on Slap Shot and realized how much of that is quotable. I'm not going to compare the two, but I know I quote Slap Shot much more than most movies I've seen. Yeah, I forget how much of my personality I owe to movies like Slap Shot. Is that why I'm such an a**hole?

f1shf00d, you're out of your element.

The most quotable movie? Depends on the person. It's different for each.

The most quoted movie? The Wizard of Oz, bar none.

:shrug: This is what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass.

(thought I'd throw that Wizard of Oz quote in there for The Bus)

PopcornTreeCt 06-30-07 11:03 PM

Yeah, I think it's different for everyone. I probably quote Heavyweights more than any movie.

This will not stand, ya know. This aggression will not stand, man.

Big Lebowski is only one of the funniest movies around.

The rug really tied to room together, man. You might not get the movie, but at least they left the creedence.

Because there's a lot of potheads in the world.

I don't recall ever quoting it, and I don't think any of my friends have quoted it. I can usually tell when one of my friends is quoting something, and if I don't know where it came from, I'll ask. So far, to me, they've never said it came from this movie.

Its because it coined the word Dude, and everybody says Dude.

And it's true because I say so!

- Are these the Nazis, Walter?
- No, Donny, these men are nihilists, there's nothing to be afraid of.

Big Worms 07-01-07 12:41 AM

Mark it zero!

Nobody fucks with the Jesus!

For more...Pretty much the whole movie.

Walter Sobchak: You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me.

The Dude: Yeah, but Walter...

Walter Sobchak: Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon... with nail polish. These fucking amateurs...
