Another wild ride and great Coen Brothers movie with a fabulous cast. You can't go wrong watching any of their movies. I think my favorite is Raising Arizona.

"I could listen to this voice the whole movie". Good one, so did the Coen brothers. They made Sam Elliot do the last monologue several times until he got fed up. "Don't you guys have enough footage by now?" Coen Brothers: "Oh, we had it at the first take but we just love listening to you." According to Sam Elliot.

Jeff Bridges was not in Tombstone, but if you do want to see him star in a really good western, also directed by the Coens, check out True Grit. The Coens tend to reuse actors they like a lot a whole bunch though so generally, if you watch more of their films you’ll notice a lot of the same faces. I definitely encourage you to watch more of their films. O Brother Where Art Thou? Is probably next on the list if you want something fun and easy to just enjoy, though Raising Arizona is also a popular choice for their lighter films. If you want something more intense and challenging, consider No Country for Old Men. Beyond that, though they’re not as commonly reacted to, a few others well worth considering are Barton Fink, Miller’s Crossing and The Hudsucker Proxy.

I get the confusion between Jeff Bridges and Kurt Russell. When they were really young they got cast in similar roles. Eventually Russell got more of a reputation for tougher characters while Bridges had more of a chill comedic energy. Now that they are old men, they've kinda gone back to getting cast in similar roles again. Russell has softened a little with age and Bridges has tiny bit more bite as an older man.

This is one of those movies that wasn't a huge box office success, but it became a cult classic over time. I dont know many people who haven't seen this movie a few dozen times.

One example is the way Walter tells Donny to always “shut the fuck up”. This is a call back to Steve Buscemi’s character from Fargo that would talk constantly and never shut up.

It was the only one I'd ever attended but I had such a great time, and even had my photo taken for a website that labeled me a Steve Buscemi groupie because I was wearing a t-shirt with his face in a huge red heart.

You guys would also love Raising Arizona by the Coen Bros. Nicholas Cage stars in it and I believe he was 23 years old in it! It's another one of the "crime gone wrong" movies that the Coen bros are so great at.

The woman who got her toe cut off is Aimee Mann, she was also in the video for Time Stand Still. And the nihilist that gets hit in the stomach w the bowling ball is Flea, bass player for Red Hot Chili Peppers

In the "Gutterballs" video, you might be surprised to learn the song is performed by a band called The First Edition, featuring a very young Kenny Rogers.

The Dude is played by Jeff Bridges (son of Lloyd Bridges and brother to Beau Bridges). Wyatt Earp was played by Kurt Russell (Husband to Goldie Hawn). Sam Elliott is the man with the voice and mustache.

This movie has one of my favorite soundtracks. Everyone from Bob Dylan to Captain Beefheart to Townes Van Zandt. ❤

Oh my goodness!! I’m so excited right now. Literally greatest movie ever!!

Imagine how many thousands of times Buscemi has had to deal with random people coming up to him and yelling, "Shut the fuck up, Donny!"

The look on Jeff Bridges' (the Dude) face as he glides under the women's legs is similar to the crazy look his father Lloyd Bridges, made when he sniffs glue in the movie Airplane. LOL. Great acting family, those Bridges.

Great cast, great story, superb film!!😂😅😃😆😃😅

A true classic film! So glad you two enjoyed it!!!

Fun fact: the guy laughing on the chair when Dude goes to see Maude is David Thewlis he also played Remus Lupin In Harry Potter

One of the best things about this movie is if you go back and look at everything Walter guesses is happening throughout the movie is completely right. One of my absolute favorites.

Welcome to the twisted world of Joel and Ethan Coen. Not only do they blend all manner of classic film genres into a unique style all their own, they do so in ways that keep even die hard fans on their toes. You truly never know what to expect. As different as Fargo and Lebowski are, they made them back to back. Their characters are facing moral struggles in an amoral world. If you go back for a third movie, you'll truly fall in love with their musical comedy, O Brother, Where Art Thou? It's like a retelling of The Odyssey with bluegrass music! ☮❤

Jeff Bridges and John Goodman are perfect odd-couple, complete opposites and yet best of friends. And I'm siding on one fan theory I head about this movie: like the Seinfeld TV show, it's a film where the plot is about nothing. And that's a good thing because you can put everything into it. On my own personal opinion, I think Sam Elliot is a guardian angel watching out for the Dude, like Clarence in It's a Wonderful Life.

I have to say Bunny accomplished quite a bit in a short amount of time after running away from home

Smokey ("You're over the line, Smokey") is played by Jimmie Dale Gilmore. He's a famous country singer/songwriter living right here in Austin, Texas. He was a founding member of The Flatlanders, along with Joe Ely and Butch Hancock. Their initial incarnation in '72 - '73 wasn't very commercially successful, but they each then became famous on their own, making subsequent band appearances very much anticipated. They still get together now and again. Their first recording project is now recognized as a milestone of progressive alternate country.

"It must be down there somewhere, let me take another look" is the best line of dialogue ever written 🤣.

The dude is Jeff Bridges, who played Starman, a film you still need to watch & react to! Wyatt Earp in Tombstone was played by Kurt Russell, who was Jack in Big Trouble In Little China.

Y’all gotta get around to Roadhouse with Patrick Swayze. You’re going to love the cameo cast I don’t want to ruin by mentioning. Also since you’re getting back into the movie sequels don’t forget the Rocky’s. You gotta do 3 & 4 next. Plus you need to get around to some Superman. The old school with Reeves in 1978. At least number 1 & 2. 3 & 4 are ok but the first two are the best ones.

My favorite trivia item from this movie (one of my favorites!) is that we never see the Dude bowl at all. Not once.

Believe it or not, the song playing when the Dude gets drugged (the bowling valkyrie scene) "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)" is sung by Kenny Rogers.

This is one of my favorites of the Coen bros and I love that you understood their sense of humor! I can't wait to see if you do "Raising Arizona" ❣

Raising Arizona for next reaction!! It’s a gem

The first time I watched this, I absolutely DIED when Donny’s ashes blew back onto the Dude. It was the needed exclamation point on a messed up few days for the man.

34:13 The entire film pays homage to hard-boiled fiction and noir fiction. In particular, the confused plot (but also many other details) refer to Raymond Chandler. The scene where the Malibu police chief throws the coffee cup at the Dude's forehead is a reference to Chandler's novel “The Long Good-bye”: In the novel, during an interrogation, private investigator Philip Marlowe manages to dodge the thrown coffee cup (although he is handcuffed), but instead is punched in the neck by the captain conducting the interrogation. The character of the brutal police chief could also have been designed by Chandler.

You two should watch 'Raising Arizona,' another Coen brothers comedy

Great reaction to a great movie. Even the smallest role is written so well, so many great and unique characters. About Donny: Never missed a strike. Except the last one. Something was off then already, he felt something in his arm after the missed shot. A sign of an upcoming heart attack.

So many great quotes in this movie! I still use, "Well that's, like... your opinion, man." 😁

The ashes in the face cracks me up every time 😂 The funny thing about John Goodman’s character (Walter) being a practicing Jew in this movie, is that in real life he married Roseanne Barr, and converted to Judaism, and then got divorced but yet remained a “Jew”. Real life imitating art, or in this case, art imitating real life.

I used to have the entire script of this movie memorized! It's like the perfect story and I still love it so much!

Loved watching this with you both! Been meaning to throw this out there, but here's a BIG WARNING. If Se7en is on your list to react to DO NOT watch it until you watch The Usual Suspects. Very important order. Not going to spoil why.

Not sure why you would need to watch The Usual Suspects beforehand but okay. If anything that would ruin Seven imo (and no, I am never writing the film title with that stupid fucking 7 in the middle).
