I don’t care for this movie, even though pretty much everyone else I know loves it

Gosh pit, though, is hilarious

moncharleskey ,

I’m with you on both counts.

First time I saw this movie I didn’t get it. On rewatch I liked it, and over the years I feel like I’ve come to appreciate it more and more. Dunno what it is about it, I don’t really enjoy any other movies like it.

I first watched this with a bunch of friends and I was the only one laughing. The more I watch it the funnier it gets.

It was a good one.

geography082 ,

Just watched it again yesterday, after a lot of years, without knowing this

LittleBorat2 ,

It sucked back then and I cannot imagine it aged well

DragonTypeWyvern ,

You’re named Borat bro…

datavoid ,

Both incredible films, you guys clearly lack taste (jk if that isn’t obvious - about the taste, not the quality)

ssj2marx ,

Borat sucked and its aged to be even worse.

Marin_Rider ,

Borat is a perfect example of a movie that’s hilarious the first time you see it, but unfunny and cringe as fuck on rewatch

It’s worth it

massive_bereavement ,

That's the movie that someone shown me saying "It's hilarious, funniest shit I've ever seen", then I sown my friends and no one enjoyed it..

Unironically, someone asked me if this was a "home movie".

Thats genuinely tragic, I’m sorry

I’ve had that with Crippled Masters.

HereIAm ,

Don’t feel too bad. The movie is a bit infamous for being tricky to recommend. I got it recommended to me and absolutely loved it.

Holyginz ,

When I was young my hair was longer and it poofed out. Add to that glasses and me being awkward and a bunch of people would call me napoleon dynamite. Definitely contributed to me not liking it that much.

ColeSloth ,

You should have embraced the heck out of that.

I rewatched it a few years ago. Didn’t much care for it. But remember when it first came out (I was around 20 at the time) and liked it.

On a side note; I totally owned the Huffy Sledgehammer bike just like the one in the movie. I had gotten it when I was around 13 years old. I got it out of grandma and grandpa’s garage and sold it on Craigslist for $100, when it should have been worth like $25.

Also, yes. I did take it on some pretty sweet jumps.

Pacmanlives ,

Even at the time it was polarizing. And yeah it basically was filmed in the style of a home movie. Movie cost 400,000 to make and made almost 50 million as a fun fact

tiredofsametab ,

I remember seeing it when it made it to DVD at some point and not making it all the way through the movie due to not enjoying it. I never tried to rewatch it after the fact.

Snowclone ,

It’s more a group movie.

goferking0 ,

I laughed slightly at it when it was on TV and it made an aunt thing it would be a good Christmas present

LaserTurboShark69 ,

Apparently there’s a sequel in the works

What was that movie about? All I remember is there was no swearing

@Iheartcheese@lemmy.world avatar

He was somebody that was rising the ranks of competitive grocery bagging but then he broke his hand

Alenalda ,

No that was employee of the month. Hes thinking of the one with Justin Long as a side character waiting tables during the day and partying at night.

Seemed more a slice of life type of movie.

HereIAm ,

There is a bit of hero’s journey narrative in it. A loser with nothing goes on a quest to win the class presidency or whatever. Even rides towards the sun set on a white horse with the girl at the end if I recall correctly.

borari ,

Definitely feels like if a super devout Mormon tried to make an homage to Gummo. I couldn’t stand Napoleon Dynamite on release, and still can’t.

Rubisco ,

Foggyfroggy ,

It’s kinda weird and boring and the characters are quirky enough to be funny but also relatable in a vaguely nostalgic, innocence of mid teens kinda way. No one is good or bad and the climax is Napoleon dancing in front of the whole school so his friend wins the student council vote. And then everyone clapped.

It’s like the Big Lebowski, where the absurdity gets funnier with each watch. Definitely fun to rewatch with friends when you see the jokes coming.

Thanks for the refresher. I think I recall Pedro running for class president or something. I’d totally rewatch it with friends if I had any.

Asafum ,

Everyone has “that movie” they’re kind of ashamed to admit they’ve never watched. The Big Lebowski is that movie for me. I know I really need to make time for it one of these centuries…
