Yes, did you read the rest of my post?

Yeah, well, thats just, like, your opinion man...

I think it's overrated, but it's still 7-8/10 while blockbusters summer comedies are 3-4/10.

It definately has some memorable moments like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_VAfVhsvOA or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BdT5mFAk-Y

It's in my top 100, pretty good movie. I love the pacing, one of those movies you can sit back and relax, and get fully immersed in situations and the characters.

As a matter of fact it's a glaring gap in my blu-ray collection. Thanks to Amazon's what else you might like I just ended up buying The big Lebowski, Raising Arizona, Fargo and Miller's crossing. $44 for 4 blu-rays not bad. Apparently they're having a Coen brother's sale, just doubled my Coen brothers blu-ray collection in 1 go.

I give it a decent, but I like most movies. Even bad ones.

I think the scenes with Jeff, Donny, and Walter are especially good and belie a subtle antagonism and co-dependence among the trio. Most of the best lines, however, are reserved for Bridges, whose equanimity in the face of physical injury, property damage, and manipulation really point to the raison d'être of the movie, which is all about attitude and tone, not plot.

To be clear, that's why I'm not a big fan of the movie. It's a little meandering and aimless, even if it's quirky, interesting, and stylish.

Yes, but it was too vague to motivate me to respond directly (though I was somewhat motivated to say how I fell asleep watching The American Hustle, but later decided not to). I asked if you read the OP because your lack of awareness of the relevance of your selectiveness implies that you did not read and/or understand the OP. The significance of selectiveness is clearly defined several times in the OP.

On a side note: I may change the title to " 'The Big Lebowskil' is one of the most overrated films of all time!" for ol' times sake. In fact, I've just decided to do this (I've made this decision as I write this sentence).

I just dropped in, to see what condition this thread was in...

I can't quite put a finger on why I enjoyed The Big Lebowski. But I really, really enjoyed watched it.

Characters were broadly drawn yet had enough complexity to them that it didn't feel shallow
Comedy was at times subtle and at times in your face but always perfectly judged
Plot was a somewhat of a farce but a lot more well told
And the actors - particularly Jeff Bridges - turned in fantastic performances.

My favourite types of comedies are usually Zucker-esque parody movies (Airplane; Naked Gun; Clue; Rat Race) but Big Lebowski definitely ranks up there for me.
