It's on TV now and I still hate it as much as when friends made me see it in the theater.

I thought it was fricking horrendous and didn't know why people made such a big deal out of it. I just saw it again earlier and felt the same way.

I still laugh at this movie when I watch it, and really don't know why.

Really? I consider myself to have an excellent sense of humor but I didn't laugh once.

I've only seen it once, so maybe that'd be true for me, but it really didn't make me laugh that much/laugh very hard. It had its moments, but I think it's pretty overrated, overall.

first time I watched it I thought it was the worst movie every made and didn't laugh once. The second time I watched it I found a few funny parts, then I watched it again and it got even funnier. Its a movie that gets better the more you watch it

There appears to be a generational gap aronud this "comedy". I realize comedic standards change over time but I just don't get why the kids think this is so funny.

I watched this movie with one of my friends, and we both laughed when Napoleon tells the girl that she can drink 1% milk because she doesn't look fat yet. That was the only time either of us laughed during the movie, and we were both 19 at the time.

I'm still watching it and it just makes me cringe with embarrassment.

Feel free to use me as the barometer for "not funny" because I laugh at almost everything. I've said on this board many times that ND was NOT a comedy. I laughed twice. I laughed when he fell while jumping over the fence and when the dude threw the steak, only because he threw it like a girl. When I ask people what they find funny about it I get this answer: " I don't know"......that tells me they probably don't find it funny either. They just don't want people to think they don't get it.

I watched this movie once and will never watch it again. Not one funny part whatsoever.

No, I honestly don't know why I find it funny but I do. In fact I probably LOL more per minute at ND than any other movie I can think of, I just don't know why. that's the beauty of it.

I'm just not as cool as you other people I guess.

The first time I watched it was ok. After that it got more and more funny. I love it and I am 31.

Also, I was on the FFA dairy food judging team so the milk tasting part hit home. ha
