THE BIG LEBOWSKI Movie Reaction (Dude, Where's My Carpet?) 

"mark it zero"

I would say best line but every word John says is the best

@@crimsonhunter7598 "All right, it's f***ing zero. Are you happy, you crazy f*ck"

"AM I THE ONLY ONE AROUND HERE THAT GIVES A SHIT ABOUT THE RULES?!"

@@scipioafricanus5871 *unloads the gun* “It’s a league game Smokey.”

"mark it zero"

I always look for this remark down in the comment section of every Big Lebowski reaction vid!

This isn't 'nam; there are rules!

@@crimsonhunter7598 "All right, it's f***ing zero. Are you happy, you crazy f*ck?"

Hey, talk smack about John Goodman and you're entering a world of pain.

same director?

@@crimsonhunter7598 How about you Google it yourself and find out? You're already on the internet.

loooool didn't kow that thanks for sharing

He dies in every Coen Brothers movie he's in.

Lenin not Lennon, this joke got lost in translation here in Germany, cause Lenin and Lennon doesn't sound alike in german. Also the german nihilists, very hard to make them sound german, cause everybody is speaking german in the german version.

My favorite line of his is probably "Darkness warshed over the dude"

I think quite a lot of things in The Big Lebowski add a gravity to the movie that it doesn't warrant, and that's what makes it amazing.

I like the idea that throughout the movie, the Dude comes in to contact with all sorts of elements that are completely out of his own sphere. Elements that are so bizarre and make absolutely no sense in relation to who he is and what he's all about: millionaires, pornographers, kidnapping, detectives, private investigators, German nihilists, avant-garde artists, Saddam Hussein. It's like, ok, why not just throw a cowboy into the mix too? Oddly, out of all these random characters, the Stranger seems to be the most similar to the Dude himself. Sam Elliot, with that drawling voice, gives off the vibe that he is so confident and self-assured, he may just be the most laidback, relaxed, easy-going guy in the world, next to the Dude. Which makes him perfect to tell the Dude's story. Almost every other character the Dude meets is in some way neurotic. People who are constantly on edge, desperate or needy, barely holding back rage or fear or aggression. From the carpet-pissers, to Walter, all the way to the cab driver who really, *really* loves the Eagles. The Stranger might not understand the Dude, but that doesn't bother him. He's the only guy who matches the Dude's energy; who's cool with just letting the Dude be himself in the end.

@@joshuabeavin7659 "There's just one thing...do ya have to use so many cuss words?" I think that's the only thing about the Dude that the Stranger doesn't admire. But when the Dude responds with "The fuck are you talking about?", the Stranger smiles and says "Ok Dude, have it your way", showing he respects the Dude for not changing for him or anyone else. He may not like that the Dude cusses, but he admires that he's not going to stop just to please him.

The Stranger is basically G-d

it feels like a GTA game without much plot

@@Dan_Kanerva so…like a GTA game

@@irvplotnik89 except for Vice City... the plot in that one is very solid and clear

I think the movie is about men in a world where women don't need them anymore. The only characters with any real success are Maude and Bunny. The two Jeffrey Lebowski's are both essentially worthless bums, the only real difference between them is that the Dude seems to be more okay with this while the other Lebowski is trying to act like he's not.

This movie has a crazy plot. You just have to figure it out for yourself

There are so many little details. The look of confusion on some people's faces when there are two totally different conversations going on simultaneously between Walter, Donny and the dude is great. You definitely aren't going to catch all the jokes the first time watching it with so much happening at once.

Definitely rewatch able. You catch more and more every viewing.

@@RobwLPOC there is a fan theory that Donnie may be a figment of Walters imagination, or a representation of walters PSTD. Walter only responds to Donnie, no other character responds directly to Donnie. The dude accepts walter's quirk in occasionally talking to this imaginary "Donnie" persona because the dude realizes walter is trying to cope and the dude is his only social connection, Look how sensitive the Dude is to the landlord and his interpretive dance- he shows up regardless if he cant pay the rent because he knows that dance is important to a good part of the landlord. like walters interaction, socially is a good part regardless if he constantly interrupts himself with "shut up!, donnie!" who may not be there. Donnies death at the end may signify Walters overcoming his shortcomings with the success of the lebowski drama resolution- and getting to the league bowling.

@@64MartinDiV @mah tay I know that theory. Jeff, John and Steve we're intrigued and liked it. It explained why Walter was so hostile towards him and because the Dude only talks directly to Donnie saying an entire 4 words to him the entire movie "Where you going dude?" "Home Donny " "Phones ringing dude" "Thanks Donny" As well, the dude was standing over him saying he had been shot when there was no blood and Donnie was not holding a wound. He said that because he thought that's what Walter believed until Walter corrected that there was no shots fired and he was having a heart attack As well, someone else pointed out if Walter was actually not a veteran and was being haunted because his claims were stolen valour, or if he had some kind of survivor's guilt because Donnie had died in the war and he didn't, the fact he actually fought a battle and was wounded in battle protecting his friend the dude, that allowed Donny to die and quit haunting Walter who was now at peace. Which gives the whole idea of Walter having survivor's guilt or Stolen Valor even more likely. The dude simply hooked it up with the funeral place to give them some unclaimed ashes so that Walter could say goodbye and do the ash spreading ceremony.

@@64MartinDiV It was originally part of the story in one of the first drafts for the dude that the way he survived was that he was the heir to the inventor of the Rubix cube. The reason he was able to live but was broke is that the Rubix cube was invented in 1974, so sales were not very good anymore meaning his royalties were only enough to scrape by. The two problems with that part of the story were, 1. Erno Rubik was Hungarian and the name Lebowski is Ukrainian/polish, so the name didn't fit really. 2. Erno Rubix was still alive in 1991 when the film was set and was also still active and working, AND today in 2021 Erno Rubix is still alive at 77 years old. If he was not dead it kinda makes it hard for him to have an heir to his fortune LOL Joel Coen cut that detail out, deciding it was best to keep the audience guessing. Although they never realized at the time the issue with the Hungarian name, they did get told or found out the guy was still alive and active I gotta point out with him still alive, the link to the Rubix cube only made sense if the Uncle etc was sending him an allowance and possibly the reason it was so small was that the uncle didn't understand the exchange rates. Although in 1991 one forint was worth close to even, like 1.30 forint was one us dollar, so somewhat closer to even, now they are like 329 forints to buy 1 us dollar. But Rubix was a math professor at the time so he probably would have been able to figure out the exchange rates

Obviously, you are not a golfer.

I’m not Lebowski, *you’re* Lebowski! I’m the Dude.

My favorite line!

I would too, Teresa 🤗💜

I agree.

One of the nihilists was limping about, clearly not her toe.

It’s always annoyed me. The Cohens are so great, but this was a rare mistake not to light the shot better.

I feel it was intentional to make it look suspicious

The German girl was Aimee Man btw. Singer from Til Tuesday. Which was an homage to Bowie's 'Love You til Tuesday'. Stop me before I sub reference again.

@@ydoesgooglesuck1960 Nice Dennis Miller reference

@@seanmarr45 I can't say I agreed with him all the time. But like David Frey, the man is brilliant. Dare ya to say otherwise. Like a book-read George Carlin, but slightly less brilliant, and from the other perspective. Love's me smart people. I miss that Republican party. And I'm the Dude

then spell the brothers' name correctly

“If you’re not into the whole brevity thing” 😂

Oh, BTW, you have new bell ringing subscriber

AM I WRONG?! - No Walter, you're not wrong, you're just an asshole!

They made a spinoff about Jesus

@@ThePartisan13 Yeah "Jesus rolls" I have yet to see it personally, but apparently it set a new definition for "shit movie".

I love David Thewlis' ridiculous tiny role too. He's so absurd for, like, absolutely no reason. It's amazing.

I love how Maude only exists to set things up for later in the film.

The doctor visit was to check for STDs.

@@DESooner333 Well yeah, that would definitely be part of it.

I'd seen the movie seven or eight times before I noticed that Walter had to kick the trunk of the Dude's car to get it to open. Little details like that are just great.

On the phone, they weren't even talking about him. It was some gossip from a friend of hers. She said, "tell me. Yes, yes. How ridiculous!" and they both started laughing hysterically.

maude decides to have a child by way of a man who has her fathers name

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Guess I saw it early somehow, before the "premier" O.o

Same

"The First Edition"

Thank you, Andrew 💜💜💜

Thank you so much 🤗✌🏼💜

@@crimsonhunter7598 I had never seen it at that point, the dude reminded them of me.
