To say I am obsessed with this movie would be an understatement. I own it on vhs, dvd, blu ray, and digital. I am an ordained dudest. I own several books about the movie, the soundtrack and plan on attending the Lebowski Fest this year. I hope I am not the only one that loves this movie.

I love the main character because he is a laid back guy who enjoys live and just takes it easy.

If you have any stories, news, or thoughts about this movie, I would love to hear them.

I would also love to read your favorite quotes from the movie.

“I not Mr. Lebowski, your Mr. Lebowski, I’m the dude, so that’s what you call me.”

    I don't really have any good stories, but I also love the Big Lebowski. So do my parents, so often when I go visit them we have a warm fuzzy family moment while watching this movie. And my favorite quote might have to be "Uli doesn't care about anything. He's a nihilist." "Oh, that must be exhausting"

    oooor "You want a toe? I can get you a toe. Believe me, there are ways, dude....I can get you a toe by 3:00 this afternoon"

    "...Johnson? What do you need that for dude?"

    My boyfriend is obsessed with that movie too. I think I need to watch it again. I was entertained but I think I will like it even more if I watch it again.

    P.S.- The Big Lebowski is the reason I started drinking White Russians!

    I always found the movie to be a little sad. Kevin Flynn had such a bright future before he went into that damned machine. He came out a broken man and became Lebowski.

    Tragic.

    " I'm the Dude. So that's what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing."

    Love the movie
    " I'm the Dude. So that's what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing."

    That quote is my son's favorite one from the movie. Cracks me up every time he says it! :laugh:

    <<<<<<<<<<

    You see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps?

    Phone's ringing, Dude.

    You know, Dude, I myself dabbled in pacifism once. Not in 'Nam of course.
    Then you know he's got emotional problems, man.
    You mean... beyond pacifism?

    Calmer than you are.

    Are you ready to be ****ed, man?

    They both look up.

    Quintana, on his way out, looks down at them from the lip of
    the lanes. Over his polyester all-in-one he now wears a
    windbreaker with a racing stripe and "Jesus" stitched on the
    breast. He is holding a fancy black-and-red leather ball
    satchel (perhaps a Sylvia Wein). Behind him stands his
    partner, O'Brien, a short fat Irishman with tufted red hair.

    QUINTANA
    I see you rolled your way into the
    semis. Deos mio, man. Liam and
    me, we're gonna **** you up.

    DUDE
    Yeah well, that's just, ya know,
    like, your opinion, man.

    Quintana looks at Walter.

    QUINTANA
    Let me tell you something, bendeco.
    You pull any your crazy **** with
    us, you flash a piece out on the
    lanes, I'll take it away from you
    and stick it up your *kitten* and pull
    the ****ing trigger til it goes
    "click".

    DUDE
    Jesus.

    QUINTANA
    You said it, man. Nobody ****s with
    the Jesus.

    Jesus walks away. Walter nods sadly.

    WALTER
    Eight-year-olds, Dude.

    "obviously, you are not a golfer"

    "uhhh I'm just going to go find a cash machine"

    "smokey, this is not 'Nam. This is bowling. There are rules."

    The love of The Big Lebowski is a movie that I share with my younger brother. We watched it all the time and quoted it. And will still quote it to each other. When people come over to hang out, it is one of the first movies I grab.
