*Napoleon Dynamite*

I've got skills too, you know.

But are they numchuck skills?

 

[heron]

Sure, I can throw a numchuck across the room at mirrors, and shoot houseplants with a crossbow, but my best skill is drawing an animal I made up--it's a cross between a slug and a dragonfly....it's called a slugnfly, or a dragolug, which I know for a fact grow on the eastern coast of Argentina. I'm going to go there some day and buy a herd and raise them back here in Idaho. I'll be rich then, and you'll wish you knew me.

Do you have skills?

I loved this movie! My favorite part was either when he was feeding Tina or when Kip says, "YOUR MOTHER GOES TO COLLEGE!" and make that girl run off

 

[heron]

She was so sweet. I remember her face from some movie when she was 5-8, and I can't place what it was. She wore something like a red velvet coat and hat, like the old travelling outfits. Does anyone remember?

My son told me I was wrong when I told them that the movie had no plot or purpose. He said that the movie was about being willing to step out of your comfort zone and take a risk in order to make your wildest dreams come true...

One of our pastors actually used ND for a sermon illustration this past Sunday ... talking about the Biblical theme of reversal of fortunes, and God using the unlikely to do amazing things.

 

[heron]

That was risque of him.

Tina Majorino (Deb) played in a movie called Corina Corina. I've seen it like 3 times - GOOD movie! ***, the other day I was watching Punk'd and JON HEDER was on it! I was like laughing hysterically. I heart this movie so much. 1 and 1/2 hours of pure brilliance.

 

[heron]

Thanks, Mrs. Matt! That just prompted me to look her up in IMDB
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001499/
She was in Waterworld too (obviously not in a little read coat).

 

[heron]

I'm waiting for a show where all the punk'd stars get back at him.

Mine are getting flack from friends who were "above" the movie.

 

[heron]

oops...pasted too much from your post, CaresKitchen!

 

[hallsmentholyptus]

i find so many opportunities to quote the movie..the other day one of the girls in my class (I'm a preschool teacher) came up to me and said
Miss Holly I need chapstick
I said Awww do your lips hurt real bad
and she of course replied yes!! My staff members have all watched the movie so I think that makes it even better.
My favorite part is when Napoleon does the dance at the school assembly...I laugh so hard every time!!!

BTW I am 24 and most of my friends are older than me and they LOVE it too!!!

 

[Scottish Joy]

Hee hee... funny, but it does grow on people! I was the one who rented it in my family (I was more than a little worried when I saw the MTV logo flash up on the screen) but it was totally awesome.... incredible! My Dad initially said "that's 2 hours of my life I'll never get back." But even he enjoys it when we put it on now!

Lucky! So... do ya ever take it over any sweet jumps?

 

[edwardsfreak1]

it never gets old i think they're coming out with a 2nd one.
