OT: Big Lebowski Released 20 Years Ago Today
One of the greatest movies of all time, and a board favorite, the Big Lewbowski, was released twenty friggin' years ago today. That does make me feel old. BUT, it also is a time to reflect on what a wonderful movie it is and all of the references that come from it.

I also saw this in the theaters and was one of the few people laughing. Granted I was already a fan of the Coen brothers but a lot of people didn't understand the humor at release.
Saw Raising Arizona dozens of times in highschool and was completely blown away by Fargo, and liked the Hudsucker Proxy, Miller's Crossing and Barton Fink, so I had high expectations for The Big Lewbowski. I also lived in LA* and bowled at the bowling alley they filmed at.
...and I was really really disappointed with The Big Lewbowski. There wasn't really much of a plot and not much happened.
Then a friend told me that the lack of plot was the point of the movie. It was an experience. The dude abides.
I re-watched the movie and have loved it ever since.
*I lived in the neighborhood Swingers was filmed in a year after the movie came out. I saw Vince Vaughn at the Big Lewbowski bowling alley a couple of times. (Cool story bro)
Is it still acceptable to say that I love caucasians (the beverage)? Because I love them.
I colluded with one last night. Russian chicks are sexy,
What many consider one of the greatest films if not THE greatest film of all time didnt do shit at the box office and didnt win the oscar for best picture

The movie really grew on me when I saw it on TV late at night every time I had to feed our baby girl a few years later

I know it's an emergency, that's why I picked up the phone.

Look, I love Lebowski as much as anyone, but to call it one of the greatest movies of all time is a bit of a stretch. Could be one of the, if not THE most quotable movie of all time, though.
Go ahead, go ahead, give me the "yeah, well... that's just your opinion, man" gif, meme.
I was first introduced to this movie around 2002 and I've called White Russians caucasians ever since.
They have to be careful. there is a beverage involved here.
What movie are you talking about?
Blood Simple
First picture, correct? Also has two all time great character actors in M. Emmet Walsh and Dan Hedaya.
