Saw it...amateurs pretending to be exberts.
"Gutterballs" was much better.
How about "My Cousin Vinny" or "The Blues Brothers"?
Try ,The Three Amigos, best enjoyed with oat sodas, caucasians, and I don't mind if you do a "j"
There's a plethora of laughs...but that's just like my opinion, Jeffe
The Royal Tenenbaums, Lars and the real girl and i saw a great new Hbo's serie, The Flight of the conchords, somebody saw it? is fantastic, i saw all the first season but they don't know if they'll make the second season.in fact i found some Dudeist behaviors in the characters.
Brit and Jemaine:

Dave (he have somethings like Walter):

and the two best characters in my opinion Mel and Murray (he's like Donny sometimes):

And the serie is very quotable too.
My Dinner With Andre
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082783/
(http://www.usf-verftet.no/admin/programarkiv/2723.arr1.jpg)
Wallace Shawn and Andre Gregory, apparently playing themselves, share their lives over the course of an evening meal at a restaurant. Gregory, a theater director from New York, is the more talkative of the pair. He relates to Shawn his tales of dropping out, traveling around the world, and experiencing the variety of ways people live, such as a monk who could balance his entire weight on his fingertips. Shawn listens avidly, but questions the value of Gregory's seeming abandonment of the pragmatic aspects of life. Written by Rick Gregory
Cool.

Saw all of these movies already, they were funny, but not the kind of movies I'm lookin for now, lookin more for independent films that bring new shit to light, you know.

Saw Royal Tennenbaums (liked it but wasn't very impressed, just a sweet family story type movie)
and saw Lars and the Real Girl (loved it).
Haven't seen Flight of the Conchords, I don't get HBO, so I will see if I can download or rent it.
Thanks.

This sounds more like something Im interested in, I'll check it out Dbuddha.
By the way, have you dudes seen the movie "Smoke" with William Hurt and Harvey Keitel?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114478/
Thats a damn good movie.
Excuse me, do you speak english, parla usted ingles.
Dave he has nosing like Walter
However, for something that is explosively violent as Fargo, NCFOM, give a look to DEAD PRESIDENTS(literal connection to Vietnam) as well as TRUE ROMANCE, and Dude, if you have a sec, give me an opinion, man, .......after the what have you, you know, "notes"
Sometimes I feel like a child wandering into the middle of a movie, with no frame of reference or maybe I just dig any new shit with a connection to Walken, Oldman, and the "Nam"
Hey, hey, let's not forget, let's not forget.. durn, lost my train of thought
And let's not forget Ghost World.

free your mind
Suicide Kings..Walken/Leary
Many Lewbowski similiarities and lines..dark..comedic
I heard the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight, got really good reviews, broke the record at 155 million or something like that, and got a 9.9 rating on IMDB....
Anybody see it yet?

Dude you're out of your element here.What about the movie's esthetic, the soundtrack and the story isn't a simple story, in fact sometimes is very tragic...
What in God's name are you still blathering about?
Movies like those, huh Gary?
QuoteDude you're out of your element here.What about the movie's esthetic, the soundtrack and the story isn't a simple story, in fact sometimes is very tragic...
Yes I know Dudette, but I don't know, it just didn't get to me like other movies.
Maybe its something to do with Ben Stiller and the Wilson brother who are usually
in slapstick-type comedies, was hard for me to take the movie seriously.
T-Dude, you can't take this negative energy into a movie marathon
You're right man, I could find that movie, man

Saw it, also saw Better off Dead.
Actually looking more for movies like DBuddha recommended, My Dinner with Andre, little known, classic, independent, deep, a movie that brings new shit to light.
Saw Ghost World, was good, but I dont know why its called Ghost World, doesnt have anything to do with the movie except for the bus scene.
Dudes, i forgot this great movie: The Party with Peter Sellers and Henry Mancini's music.

Swimming to Cambodia may fit the bill re: My Dinner with Andre-style movies. This is a monologue by Spalding Grey...it's fraught with Dudeist insights, imo.
Will you shut the fuck up about the movies, man , and enjoy your coffee? ::)

You're not interested in movies Mr. Brandt?...i guess you're only interested in sex Mr. Bandt.
You mean coitus?
I just saw an Australian movie called Garage Days. About a band trying to get signed to a label and make it big. Fun shit.
How about "Braindead" by Peter Jackson - some nice effects for the parlance of its time,... and yes its near the In-and-Out Burger!!!

I'll check out Braindead, I just read an article today on Peter Jackson in a magazine, weird.

I believe the screenwriter was Arthur Digby Sellers, he wrote the bulk of the movie...

Hey cool, mang. Yeah, great flick. One of my all time favorites.
Newbie Dude here, sitting here at the bar thinking --have you checked out the Brit comedy Little Britain? Sketch comedy 1/2 hour show, available to play via Netflix, if you like British comedy you wont be disappointed

Sorry Rev.DoAJ but I can't stand it. I don't understand how they have gotten away with doing the same routines that weren't that funny when they were on radio.
It's the same jokes every episode just repeated.
All IMHO of course.
Now the League of Gentlemen thats funny.
I just watched My Own Private Idaho which is a combination of Shakespeare's Henry IV and Midnight Cowboy. The fools and clowns and rabble in Henry IV become male prostitutes and johns in MOPI and in both cases one of the rabble is going to be rabble only for a short time and then he's going to impress his dying Dad by turning square. Also, River Phoenix's narcolepsy is a symbol for something strongly vaginal.
Dude, check out the old French Tati-movies. Don't worry, they speak French, but it doesn't matter. It's mostly without speech. And so funny. And deep, fuckin'ey!
Mon oncle (my uncle) is a good start, man.
Good music too.

People keep mentioning this Tati chap.
I can only recall seeing Mon Oncle and Mr. Hulot's Holiday (the latter a few weeks ago, again): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGQ3fshuMus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGQ3fshuMus)
Although the movie of the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is the least of the canon beside the radio show. book, and TV series you can watch a movie with the hero wearing a bathrobe the whole time.

I didn't get to see the film - apparently I haven't missed much. Welcome to the fold Boomslang, any rug in the place . .
Here's something I just found, haven't seen it but maybe it'll be worth checking-out: http://www.disinfo.com/2011/02/slackistan-pakistans-first-slacker-film/

If you can stand the 70's special effects the TV series on DVD is pretty close.
Otherwise seek out the cd's of the radio show. They go further into the story (expanding the original radio series), and then there's the books, but they get to a point where I think Adams was fulfilling a contractual obligation
I think I caught this the second time it aired.
Most of it's bizarre surrealism comes from the fact that most of the time they were sitting in the BBC canteen half an hour before they were going on air still writting the next episode.
Oh yeah, Dude - I saw the TV show and loved it (missed the radio series, though); just didn't get around to seeing the Hollywood version. Did you UK'ers get to see Dirk Gently yet?

I was actually a bit disappointed they made Gently seem a bigger bread head than I think the book did.
aapart from that it was pretty good, shame there wasn't more.
