Same! I usually watch the first one once a year, but I try to get the fully trilogy in.

The Big Lebowski. Simultaneously ridiculous and incredibly sophisticated. People who think its “just” a stoner comedy may have some more viewings to go 🙂
Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, man.
I never realized it was considered a stoner comedy! It’s quite a bit better than one I’ve seen in that category!
It gets the stoner comedy reputation as the dude is stoned throughout. He’s a character in the movie though, not then full tone. That’s probably why it’s so good. It blends so many genres with an interesting interweaving plot and wonderful dialogue.
It’s a deserved reputation as it’s great to watch stoned. Especially when the dude is confused and so are you. Or the psychedelic sequences. However it’s also not deserved as it’s so much cleverer than that with differen levels. A stoner comedy doesn’t normally have a coherent plot and levels.
Interesting. When my husband suggested we watch it, ages ago really early on in our relationship, I had asked him what category it was. I also asked him just now. Just now he went “Oh that’s difficult but broadly speaking it’s a comedy”. I said “I asked that question of you when you showed it to me like 15 years ago. So you know what you said then?” “No, what did I say then?” “You called it a dark comedy because someone died” (because I was and am sensitive to that) He nodded and said “Makes sense”
Don’t be fatuous.
Especially when you dive into the fan made theories, like Donny is a figment of Walters imagination, Walter killed his ex-wife and her husband, the dude is the big Lebowski’s illegitimate son.
I don’t think the Dude could be his illegitimate son since that’s part of the reason Maude referred him to that doctor. He wouldn’t have been very “thorough” if he missed that they were related.
Maude is the step daughter. Her unborn child would be the heir.
That’s going off the deep end for me. I prefer the interpretation that its a video essay on masculinity. “What makes a man a man?” is the central tenet of that movie, and personally, knowing that was a really crystallizing moment that made all the bullshit fall aside. I read a beautifully succinct essay about this somewhere and will look for the link.
Roll tide.
Foodfight!
The Seventh Seal
If I had to pick the two movies furthest away from each other in every way imaginable, it would be these two movies. You have broad tastes haha 😂
