Why was it so successful?
Memes before memes.

this.
My normie classmates memed the shit out of this movie
>>63543789
Proto-memes.
>>63543789
>>63543820
By memes do you mean it was quotable?
>>63543896
if you're a normie retard
>>63543789
Does that include "The Hangover" too?
It was a fun indie movie that wasn't trying to be pretentious
Because it wasn't lazy or judgemental in its depiction of small town America.
>>63543752
Because it was the most quotable film of all time
>>63544064
it's more that it was released before everyone understood that lolrandum humor is inherently pretentious
>>63544080
This exactly.
>>63544031
No. Don't be a cunt.
>>63544031
Naw the by time Hangover came out, memes were already a thing.
I would put Anchorman and Dodgeball as other proto-meme movies. Kids in school used to quote them constantly. Chappelle's show as well
>budget: 400,000
>gross: 44,000,000
not bad
If you can't rewrite the script word for word from memory you don't deserve to browse this board
>there will never be a revival of late 90s/early 2000s comedy films
>>63544141
I'm really, really disappointed by the lack of appreciation Dodgeball has on this board
>>63544312
Don't be. Let it remain pure.

A FREAKIN' 12-GAUGE, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I caught you a delicious bass.
Do the chickens have large talons?
is it just me or does the movie make you feel lethargic
Who /suckshardattetherball/ here?
do i have to be american to understand this movie?i liked the dance though
How the fuck did an arthouse comedy film become mainstream?Was it MTV, Paramount and Fox Searchlight?
Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre are the best, most wholesome, funniest, and quoteable fun for all ages movies of all time. Too bad Gentleman Broncos was shit, I had big hopes for Hess.
>Also, you faghats don't know what memes are if you think it is proto meme.
>>63544312
If you can dodge /tv/'s hatred, you can dodge a ball!
It was a comfy/funny movie without the nasty degeneracy of most modern comedies. I don't get the hate of it.
>>63544366
Spreading the good word. Check that shit.
>>63545413
Sounds about right
>>63545907
nacho libre is not nearly as good as Napoleon dynamite though
>>63546215
How did I forget about this scene?
Top black comedy
BOW TO YOUR SENSEI
This movie was made by a Mormon. Napoleon's family is Mormon.
>you now realise your average fa/tv/irgin was that annoying kid in school who constantly quoted movies and thought he was funny
>>63543752
Because it was so unique
Tina, you fat lard, come get some dinner!
>>63547444
And Mormons are either the most boring people ever or fucking hilarious.
>>63547444
So it is the 2nd greatest piece of Mormon fiction, behind The Book of Mormon.
>But my lips hurt real bad!
>She has... sandy, sandy blonde hair... pretty good face. I'm just getting really TO`ed she hasn't sent a full bodyshot yet...
