Could it ever be?

I mean cmon. What other film has spawned a religion and multiple yearly festivals as well as such a devoted legion of fans as the achievers?

I expect that the Coens will be following up.
I mean it. I can feel it in the air.

Well, dude, we just don't know. Many a fine dude has called for a TBL II, but the brothers Coen have yet to let any new shit come to light. You got any leads?

A TBL II would be far fucking out, mang.

I heard a maybe from one source.

And DB, Jedi, yeah they are about at the same level as us, well there are two Jedi, one from Star Wars, but our man Jeff did it twice, because Men Who Stare at Goats also has a quasi religious following.

Huh, did not know that - shall check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVWw9QzvTCQ

Well Dudes, I don't know, I really don't know.
They would take chances if they did a TBL II, wouldn't they?
There's a high risk. Expectations would be high. It's difficult - maybe not possible, to do such a thing on purpose. You know what I mean? The "I" would interfere.
But then again, the CBs are, er, uh, kind of ... unpredictable, aren't they?

Faithfully BE

I gotta be honest dudes, I don't think I would want that. It's pristine now and my expectations would just be too high. No way anyone could produce something in reality that's been put to such a high standard in our imaginations.

brother_erwin · January 13, 2011, 04:28:28 PM

Yeah, Trip, I think I go along with you on this.

Rev. Gary (revgms) · January 13, 2011, 04:48:18 PM

Well the best concept I heard so far was, "The Jesus, the Second Coming", more spin off than sequel. The Lebowskian sites have the inside info on that.

Seeds of a fan film maybe?

Yeah, I think that is what The Lennon is working on right now. Not sure, but the Koog meister may be working with The Lennon on turning The Little Lebowski script into a fan film.
That just may get the Coen Bros attention!!

In the late 60's and early 70's the trekkie world sent an uncompromising set of letters (by the thousands) to the nihilists of Hollywood demanding more Star Trek.

That raddled the cages and got the attention of the decision makers who are always thinking about feeding the monkey and "Star Trek Phase Two" was born. It was going to be a following up on the original series that went from 1966 to 1969.

Although "Phase Two" never made it to TV airwaves, the letter campaign did help bring about "Star Trek, The Motion Picture" in 1979 (using much of the design concepts from "Phase Two" production plans). The rest is Trek history.

In 1987 Star Trek, The Next Generation, finally did make it to the boob tube, mainly due to the success of the series of movies.

I would dig zesty coitus with Counselor Troy.

Although I would dig seeing a well written and produced TBL II, and I think it would be worth the risk of making one (it could turn out to be a Hollywood compromised piece of shit), I would puke my guts out if they tried to turn it into a weekly TV show, or as in the case of Star Trek; a cartoon! OVER THE LINE!

Perhaps a 21st century letter writing campaign (email, YouTube vids interviewing dudes who want to see a TBL II, website for people to sign a petition, updates, etc.) would be effective?

Thanks, Dude - seemed an appropriate moment to put that link there

@ DB - Sounds like a good idea - if you're keen for a sequel - but exhausting.
Chances are, if there is a chance for cash then something is already being mulled-over - those rich fuckers (these days) don't miss a trick, man.
