The Big Lebowski - MOVIE REACTION - First Time Watching - BIG LAUGHS 

the dude's jellies sandals came from Jeff Bridges closet. he still has them. 😎

I'm always a little wary of people who say they don't care for this movie. Easily one of the most wildly funny things I've ever seen.

I love the consistency of a terrier being misidentified as a Pomeranian and a ferret being misidentified as a marmot.

So good to see people laughing their asses off - I struggle to think of a funnier movie than this 😂

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, uh, your opinion, man." Fun Fact: With the exception of The Dude (Jeff Bridges) helping Maude (Julianne Moore) bowl in a fantasy, The Dude is never actually seen bowling once. The Real Dude Fact: A lot of the Dude's clothes in the movie were Jeff Bridges's own clothes, including his Jellies sandals, which he reportedly still owns and uses to this very day. Big Paraquat Fact: In an interview with Rolling Stone Magazine, John Goodman stated that The Dude (Jeff Bridges) referring to The Big Lebowski (David Hiddleston) as a "human paraquat" was one of the only improvised lines to make it into the final film. Virtually every other line was scripted.

First reaction I’ve seen wheee people actually “get” the movie and laugh at the movie. Refreshing . My favorite movie. Subscribed ! We used to watch this over and over in college.

In "Fargo," Buscemi's character talked constantly, so the Coen Brothers in this movie decided to have him hardly speak at all and constantly be told to shut up. I've never seen anybody laugh so much at this film. It made your video a sheer delight to watch. "O Brother Where Art Thou" and "Raising Arizona" definitely need to be the next two Coen Brothers films you react to. Both of them are wacky comedies. Both of them include John Goodman.

20 seconds in and I love the fact you guys picked up on the absurdity of drawing the guy with the giant dong. For reasons I'll never understand it flies right over everyones heads... they'll all be like "huh... what's that supposed to mean" Nothing. It's means nothing you dummy. That's what make it so damn funny.

Always so much fun watching new people discover & love this hilarious film.

I've never seen another reactor laugh as much as this chap! Very joyous to witness 🙂

One of my favorite movies of all time, and the fact that y’all enjoyed it makes me so happy. Lots of people don’t get the humor, but it is so smartly written I could watch it 10 times a day. Love the react, I will now be subscribing! “Shommer Shabbas!”

Darkness worshed over the Dude...

The most brilliantly crafted comedy film I've ever seen; no matter how times I watch it I still laugh at least as hard as the first time.

I just found you guys and I'm SO happy this was the first movie I got to watch with you. I find new stuff to laugh about each time I watch The Big Lebowski

Jackie Treehonrn's drawing cracks me up every time. The fact that he's talking on the phone and idly draws that, is hilarious.

Most of Jeff Bridges wardrobe was his personal clothing, including the jelly sandals and the pendleton sweater. Steve Buscemi had a lot of fun with his role, he has just a few lines and basically got paid for bowling, and hanging out with Jeff Bridges and John Goodman. This film has a massive cult following and even has it's own conventions. The largest convention is known as "Lebowski Fest West," and takes place in Los Angeles. People dress up as different characters and it's held at a bowling alley. Most of the cast has made appearances and a best dressed contest, takes place to judge the top cosplay of characters from the film.

That "different mothers" line is lowkey so good.

best joke is the privacy plank being propped up against a door that opens outwards

Probably my favorite reaction to this movie, one of my all time favorite films. It's so quotable, too! Glad you guys enjoyed this so much! Have a good one!

Not sure if you noticed (or if someone already said), but Donnie's heart attack was forshadowed in the scene before when he doesn't hit a strike! He walks back and examines his right arm, shaking it and holding it...

I found this movie in high school through, of all places, the original Powerpuff Girls. The creator is a gigantic fan and made an episode full of references to it. Been a decade since my first watch, and it’s still the funniest movie I’ve ever seen, where there’s not a single second I’m not either cackling, dying, or wearing a gigantic smile. Your reaction is the closest I’ve seen to what I remember my initial experience being like. Hope you guys gain more attention! I think reactors who genuinely care about watching and analyzing movies serve a special purpose on the internet.

Absolutely LOVED your reaction guys. I love this movie and have seen it many times. (I'd love to see John Goodman play this role again as well 😊) But your reaction as I watch it today, right now, reminds me just how funny this film from the Coen brothers is... It's all good

The cohen brothers didn’t give the landlord a dance to do, just told him to dance!

Great reaction to one of the funniest movies of all time. You two are great!!!!

One of my favorite scenes is the cab scene where both the dude and the cab driver are so irritated while simultaneously listening to "peaceful easy feeling" by the eagles

man you've got a great laugh!!!

Oh Brother, Where art thou is amazing!

Great reaction to this movie. One of the few movies I can watch over and over and nothing really is resolved every time I watch it. Still one of the funniest movies ever made. Miller's Crossing is a great movie as well. Looking forward to your Coen Brother Marathon.

I think it's pretty apparent which of you enjoyed the movie the most. lol Great reaction. The Coens said they wanted to make a Raymond Chandler kind of detective mystery noir such like "The Big Sleep". But instead of a suave detective type trying to get to the bottom of a mystery, they replaced that character with a deadbeat burnout hippy who gets dragged into it...and wants nothing to do with it. I've also heard people describe it as a story trying to form around a character, but he just doesn't care enough to let it, so the story just gives up. I love this movie...easily top 3 of all time, and it just gets better with subsequent viewings. The comedy has its own unique tone, and is somehow both subtle and ridiculous. The characters are amazing...the best thing about the movie, easily. Anyway, great job. I'm subscribing.

I've watched about 10-20 reactions to the Big Lebowski and you are the FIRST reactor to recognize that the album cover shown in one scene is a play off of Kraftwerk. And after watching this movie so many times I can't believe I didn't realize Aimee Mann was in the movie until you pointed it out!

I've just been introduced to you two! I love your reaction to this movie, it's a riot!! Seen it too many times! 😘😂

Although it might seem strange, i shed a tear everytime i see Donny die. He really tied that movie together😢

Infectious laughter here

Those were genuine laughs!!! Remind me how I reacted the first time I saw Big Lebowski. This movie changed my life.

Probably the best Lebowski reaction I have ever seen.

Nice to see someone enjoying this movie this much. One of the funniest movies i know! :)

This movie is one of the top five of all time that drop the F-Bomb over 250 times

Another fun detail is that everything the Dude says is something he heard someone else say before. ("this aggression will not stand" is first said by Bush on TV in the Ralph's for instance)

A lesson in the art of the Absurd. Still the funniest movie I have ever watched.

I love how often and genuinely you laughed at this movie. So many people don't get it. I subscribed less than 2 minutes in to the video. Keep up the good work and can't wait for more.

I'll add one tidbit: here in Southern California, John Goodman did radio spots for In'N'Out Burger for several years in the late 80s/early 90s. Must explain why Walter is so vehemently telling Donnie to STFU when the subject comes up!

The "Shut the fuck up Donnie" was a joke about Steve Buscemi's Fagro character and how he would not shut up.

The craziness of every day life!..The Dude abides....great reaction.

I swear I'm not stalking you guys, but I keep coming back to watching your reactions to this movie...especially after watching a few others since and they absolutely do not seem to get the humor for some reason. Pure delight watching the joy you both have watching this great movie.

The Jackie Treehorn doodle scene pretty much sums up the entire movie.

Do Death Of Stalin. Another movie with Buscemi in it. One of the funniest movies of all time. Doesn't get a lot of recognition from reactors

Great reaction, nice to see you enjoying this classic so much. Looking forward to you watching "O Brother Where Art Thou".

Fun fact: This movie is "loosely" based on Raymond Chandler's novel, The Big Sleep. The novel has a similar conclusion.

Lol great reaction, subbed.

One of the top 3 most rewatchable movies ever made lol 😂

What a fantastic reaction to surely career-best roles for Bridges and Goodman😂😂😂

The result of this movie was the creation of a Little Lebowski from the mating of two Lebowski's! And TONS of laughs. You will also be reminded of the Dude when anyone drinks a White Russian.

"Am I gonna cry in this one?" - Maybe from laughter... The Big Lebowski is a noir film in disguise. A decent man gets drawn into an underworld where everyone is trying to double-cross each other, and he's seduced by a femme fatale who uses him for her own purposes. More Coen Brothers movies to react to: Raising Arizona O Brother, Where Art Thou? Blood Simple No Country for Old Men True Grit (the 2010 version, not the John Wayne movie from 1969) The Dude Abides...

That's the brilliance of the movie. The Dude is the only main character in the history of film who emphatically doesn't want to participate in the plot of the movie and has to be forced to get involved in pretty much every single scene that's not at the bowling alley. He just wants to bowl with his friends and chill at home.

great movie and great reaction

Best reaction ever. Miss you guys

The Jackie Treehorn note sketch joke was beyond absurd. It has such a good setup to because the tone is serious and the Dude thinks he get get import info.

As an Ordained Dudeist Priest (real thing--Church of the Latter Day Dude), I congratulate you on your discovery. Remember---Just take it easy, man.

Loved how much you enjoyed it, one of my favourite movies. And you got the Kraftwerk reference! :-)

I agree best reaction to this movie, it's my all time hands down favorite comedy! I don't know why but I still laugh the hardest every time I see Walter jump out the car with that Uzi!

The Dude abides! Respect!

Guys this is one of my favorite movies and ive seen it so many times but I had a blast watching this reaction I was laughing my a$$ off! Thank you please do more like this

Great reaction to a great movie 👍

That Pendleton sweater The dude wears is $250... I always wanted one.

FUN FACT: The soundtrack includes multiple songs by the legendary Bob Dylan, including the initial track!

Next time you watch this movie be sure to notice the two guys working for Jackie Treehorn in the beginning are wearing each other's clothes when they show up the second time

Y’all were great, loved it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍✌️🇺🇸

Enjoyed that quite a bit. Liked and subscribed...

John Goodman is on FIRE in this 😂...

cool you enjoy it and laugh together the whole time...

I’m curious. So, I’ve never watched Portlandia, but I hear good things. Are you guys aware that Aimee Mann did the Magnolia soundtrack, and that she was originally the lead singer of Til’ Tuesday, in the 1980’s ? Incidentally, after multiple watches of this film, there are to my knowledge, 3 famous musicians in The Big Lebowski. Flea, Aimee Mann and Jimmie Dale Gilmore. (Smokey) The Cohens must be fans.

Loved you’re reaction but if you watch the Dude you gotta include “the dude abides” as part of it. It’s The iconic line of the movie. The dude abides man. 🙂

I have to give major props most people would not have known that the album shown @19:10 was actually "Autobahn" by Kraftwerk.

I LOVE your reactions. More Coen Brothers movies, please! Hopefully you haven't seen too many Kubrick movies yet, either. Or Denis Villeneuve.

'KINGPIN'

I had a friend named Donny all through High School and Middle School and you have no idea how many times I told him to shut the F up after he said something completely normal because of this movie. 😂😂😂😂

The story ends that way because nothing happened, nothing resolved, and it ends almost how it starts

Two other Coen brothers to see: "Miller's Crossing". "No Country for Old Men".

Very nice film!!!😂

The Hudsucker Proxy is a great underrated Coen Brothers movie.

Excellent. You guys kept me smiling. It's a bad day and you helped. Please upload more. 👍

There's a famous synopsis of this film that goes something like this is a movie that keeps trying to happen to The Dude, but he refuses to participate in it.

Two essential Coen Bros films (IMO) that are rarely, if ever, reacted to are “Barton Fink” and “The Hudsucker Proxy”. Make it so…

Welcome to Coen brothers' universe! Where movies are as random as real life, but much funnier!

I think one of Coens' funniest movies is "A Serious Man" from 2009. Got nominated for a ton of awards including Best Picture, and then instantly got forgotten. Apparently for being "too Jewish". To me that's like saying Fargo is too Minnesotan. 🤷‍♂

You guys oughta watch Kingpin with Woody Harrelson and Bill Murray. Another bowling classic.

Burn After Reading please! My fav comedy

Sam Elliot is what makes this movie!

It's so funny how Brand makes a point of agreeing with each and everyone around him.

The Dude abides.

I remember seeing the Coen brothers very first movie "Blood Simple" in 1984 at the theater and haven't missed any of their movies since. Here is my quick suggestions listed by genre as a "Must See". COMEDY: "Raising Arizona", "O Brother Where Art Thou", "The Hudsucker Proxy", "Hail Ceasar". CRIME: "Miller's Crossing". WESTERN: "True Grit", "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs". That alone, should keep us busy on this channel for quite a while. By the way, I love your reactions and I subscribed immediately.

Miller's crossing is nothing at all like this. Whole other vibe but still very good.

Enjoyed laughing along with you. The Coen's said this was inspired by Raymond Chandler novels. Chandler said that scenes were more important than plot. Suggestion: watch it again and see some of the subtleties that you missed the first time

The essence of the movie was stated by the "Greek Chorus" at the beginning singing Tumblin' Tumbleweeds. Just moving along where the wind blows. Looking for other resolutions won't be satisfied.

1:33 I’m just thinking “…poor Donnie.😢”

Big Lebowski reaction? ...Subscribed.

You guys must have some cool viewers/patreons ... first Fargo, and now The Big Lebowski!! Now you need to see "Burn After Reading". The perfect follow-up to these. 👍 Ps. Ck out Seven Psychopaths by Martin McDonaugh. Fits in wonderfully with these. Fantastic dark comedy.

Also I'm certain it's on your list, but should definitely watch Tombstone. Sam Elliot made me think of it as he's in it, but also a hilarious and brilliant performance by Val Kilmer (should have won an Oscar) as well as an amazing film.

"Nothing happened... there were all these plot lines they set up and then nothing actually paid off...but you enjoy the journey!" Yeah, somehow, the movie manages to be tied together, doesn't it?

Poor Donny 😂
