Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Say what you will about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, but at least it's an ethos.

While I have not seen every Coen movie, I have seen quite a few. I consider myself to be a fan. TBL is by far my least favorite. Everything seemed forced to me. I've even tried to go back and rewatch after reading all the acclaim. Didn't work. Most overrated movie ever. The fact that more threads are started about it than Raising Arizona saddens me.

What seemed forced?

Each time I watch it it gets better. I didn't think it was that good the first time I saw it.

I am the dude so that's what you call me

One of the best films of all time. The Coen's are some of my favorite directors. I have a lot of friends who had to watch it 2-3 times to actually appreciate it. I always have to explain the movie to people who haven't seen it as, "The best movie ever made that's really about nothing."

Yeah, first watch was a major ´what the frick is all the talk about?´, and confused me a bit (as per the shitbag
´real´Lebowski).

Own it. Love it.

Anytime I am in a bad mood ... can watch it ... makes me laugh. It also makes me want an In-N-Out burger.

I was kind of "meh" on it the first time I saw it. Then the second time it was a little better. After watching it 4-5 more times, it became insanely hilarious to me. It's one of those movies that's not great the first time you watch it but it progressively gets more and more great the more you watch it.
