1. About damn time someone else around here liked it |

Though I didn't like it until my second viewing. Damn funny movie though.

2. I confessed my love of the movie to a co-worker |
|
and she said she thought it sucked but that her daughter loves it and is constantly quoting it. I don't know it well enough to quote but it's a cute movie.
I mean c'mon, Napoleon is a geek, what is there not to like?

8. I think it's hilarious |
|
but I think some people get put off by the fact that it's so hyped. People keep hearing how funny it is from people who have seen it half a dozen times. They watch the movie and think it's okay but aren't thrilled. I think it's much better upon repeat viewings and with a few friends over too.
My two cents...for what it's worth.

....and my other recent fave is Bad Santa :)
ND is an original, and you can almost never say that about any new movie any more.
In fact, it's about time for my mom to watch it :)

9. Bad Santa ROCKS! I watched that with my nephew |
|
and almost wet my pants I was laughing so hard. I love the dwarf! I'm laughing just thinking about that movie!
I hope they don't ruin Napoleon Dynamite by doing a sequel. What made it good is that it was unique and to franchise it will just make it another movie.

10. My two cents again... |
|
Bad Santa made me wanna kill myself. What a depressing movie. God everyone is just completely despicable and unlikable. Sorry to be a party pooper.

11. There is more than one way.. |
|
.... to look at these characters. As pathetic, awful people - or as fallen angels looking to get back to the nearest cloud.
For certain, the dwarf's wife was beyond redemption. :)

12. But at the end the kid gets up the courage to stand up |
|
for himself and that may have never happened without the help from Billy Bob Thornton.

15. Who could forget this great exchange: |
|
Santa: "I think I've turned a corner" Dwaft: "What, you're fucking petites now?"
Side splitting :)

14. I thought it was very different, and entertaining! |
|
I can't really say why. They were just goofs! Vote for Pedro!
