New shit has come to light............

[DigitalBuddha]

So I was watching The Big L over the weekend and more or less looking for a lead or two into something I had not noticed before (had the boys in the crime lab working in shifts).

I had always wondered why Knox Harrington, the video artist, had a mild but almost uncontrollable laugh when the Dude talks with him. And, Knox and Maude have a good laugh even as Maude is on the phone.

** The scene.............

Knox Harrington: So you're Lebowski. Maudie's told me all about you. She'll be back in a moment, sit down. Would you like a drink?

The Dude: [as he sits down] Uh, yeah. White Russian?

Knox Harrington: The bar's over there.




So this is my theory, dudes; they're both laughing upon the Dude entering the scene because they (Maude and Knox) BOTH know what Maude is planning on doing with the Dude; i.e., have a little Lebowski with someone she doesn't have to see socially. To Maude, the Dude was perfect for the stud roll.

** Also, it would explain the strange comments Maude makes when she first meets the Dude............

Maude Lebowski: Do you like sex, Mr. Lebowski?

The Dude: 'Scuse me?

Maude Lebowski: Sex. The physical act of love. Coitus. Do you like it?

The Dude: I was talking about my rug.

Maude Lebowski: You're not interested in sex?

The Dude: You mean coitus?

You may just be onto something, there,  - when it comes to issues of coitus, DB's the Dude with the nose of a Shamus

David Thewlis (Knox) is a terrific actor and it is well worth having a look at some of his other work; most notably with the Director/Writer Mike Leigh (any Mike Leigh movie is worth checking out - the actors get practically no notes and a great deal of the work involved is improvised): http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107653/

Fucking eh, man; coitus and oat sodas have made many a dude a happy dude.  



Yeah, David Thewlis is a great actor. He abided well in "The Kingdom of Heaven."

He can also play a pretty good nazi (nothing ever changes)........

Cakebelly what is the little man doing here?




It looks to me like he's doing it manually. Was that the intention?

[cakebelly]

I believe that to be the case - the site I ripped it off from used to have a much better 'manualist' smiley but they have replaced it with this inferior white bubble-head thing. I saw rather more graphic ones, last night but I didn't really trust the site (besides, photofucket seem to be 'delete happy' when it comes to my uploads).

[meekon5]

Looking at it further he is in fact attempting to masturbate over the smiley!

You've just invented emoticon porn.

Actually doesn't this count as emoticoitus interruptus?

"Invented emoticon porn" Well, I can't take credit for inventing it, Dude . . I just exploit . .I mean, I'm just a business man, . Think of me as an enabler . . before I came along these little yellow Dudelings didn't have a clue; they'd gambol and play all day, rut, eat, sleep their lives away in their secret, rainbow-hued glades. Primitive, Dude, real third world shit, y'know. They had no tv, no tap-water (they used to drink outta streams, man), no benefits of Democracy at all, Dudes. They didn't even know how to use their great mineral wealth . . so, it was like my Christian duty to help them out, y'know. They ain't fast learners but their keen . We gave them  Jesus - they didn't understand that at all, at first but they soon got the hang of it. They just love to do their stuff - any time, night or day - and my rates are the best, Dudes, the best.

So, Dudes, come on down to Democracy Inc. - we got specials on all week . .  deals and shows that you won't believe! .

Y'know, I heard the Pope is thinking of giving me a medal for my missionary work but, medals aren't important, Dude - it's the work that counts - I'm just happy to help Dudes help themselves.

I just think the little euro tight wearing video Artist got all atwitter in the presence of his Dudeness.
Simple case of a school girl crush.
