Poll: unnecessary praise

[insane44]

The movie napoleon dynamite has gotten alot of praise for a long time and I just recently saw it (its on tv now) and I was shocked how much people liked it, I want to know what you think

It's pretty damn good for a non-animated G-rated comedy.

Agreed.

It was funny (Not funniest ever, but funny) without having to resort to rampant swearing or sexuality.

Any idiot can swear or talk about sexuality to shock. That's not funny (I'm looking at YOU Dane Cook).

When you can make people laugh without resorting to 'cheap' laughs (Since shock comics are a dime a dozen), then you know you're genuinely funny.

I found it mildly humorous before it was quoted into a coma only to have John Heder (or however the fuck you spell it) do a bunch of movies in which he played virtually the same character.

 

[mokes310]

I thought it was funny the first time I saw it, but the jokes didn't stand the test of time.

 

[qbert4ever]

I hated it. Had to turn it off about 20 minutes in before I chucked a brick at the TV.

I would rather get a colonoscopy with a hot bar of iron as it is being hammered on an anvil then see that movie again. It was ridiculously bad.

 

[rottenbutter]

My mom, dad, brother, friends, and brother's friends, all thought that movie was "the shit," and I thought it was just shit.

I didn't find a single part in it funny, and see it as extremely overrated.

 

[Milkatron]

I saw it in theaters, and laughed once. Because a friend of mine started yelling at the poor quality halfway through.

Vote for Pedro(Steckecilo)

The first time I watched it in the theaters, I thought it was great. However, when it aired on television a year later, I was saddened in my realization at how dumb it really was. I didn't laugh once the second time =/

Aww what the heck. YARR!

 

[TheBadass]

You know that Simpsons .gif where Grandad walks into a room, sees Bart there and turns around and leaves? That me was when attempting to watch Napoleon Dynamite.

 

[varulfic]

Saw it, twas okay, probably won't see it again.

 

[deathninja]

Got it for £2 somewhere, watched it, frisbee'd it.

There's some funny parts, and a handful of great lines, but the rest is just painful.

 

[Ace of Spades]

I watched it, and responded with a resounding "meh."
