Hello everyone, and welcome to our second Coen brothers film on the channel! We had a lot of fun with this one and hope you laugh along with us :) Next week we're reacting to the new Batman film, which we're veeery excited for! See you then 🦇 - Eric & Sarah

Best description I’ve ever heard about this film, “it’s a movie that is trying its hardest to have a plot, but the main character can’t be bothered”

"Obviously you're not a golfer" might be my favourite line in this. There's just hundreds to choose from, it's insane

This movie gets better every time you re-watch it.

The "shut the f*u*k up, Donny" was the Coen Brothers playing a joke. In "Fargo" Buschemi talked nonstop, so they decided to have him be told "shut the f*u*k up!" constantly in this movie.

No Country for Old Men is absolute gold.

"Is that Flea?!" 🤣🤣🤣 I love seeing Flea pop up in stuff. He always has a lot of fun on screen. His IMDB credits are a wild ride.

One of the BEST movies ever made! Every film from the Coen Bros. is excellent.

Walter was based on John Milius who was a writing heavyweight in Hollywood. He wrote Apocalypse Now! The first couple Dirty Harry’s, wrote and directed Conan the Barbarian, uncredited writer for Jaws, Hunt for Red October and the list goes on. There’s a great documentary about him and in it he explains how he came up with the name Apocalypse Now, very funny. Walter even looks like Milius when he was younger, glasses and all.

One of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Perhaps not a movie for everyone, it has a special kind of humor, but I love it!

This movie is not about the plot, It's about the characters.

11:52 "their lives revolve around.... the bowling 😶" your words saying bowling, your face says wtf 🤣🤣🤣

Fargo was SOOOOO huge - and Lebowski followed it. I saw Lebowski opening night in the theater, and the theater was PACKED with old people who clearly were really into Fargo & came out due to the Coens. They. Did. Not. Get. It....AT ALL. I thought the movie was hilarious - and the silence and confusion in the theater made it even funnier. This is truly one of the funniest movies ever made, and it rewards repeat viewings. Welcome to the Coens! Pretty much the best movies ever made. You definitely need to watch the rest of their films. Raising Arizona, O Brother, A Serious Man, Barton Fink, etc...all so good.

That rug really tied the room together man

12:19 "hey, the rugs gone..." "😯 it is!" but what i ❤️ was the "good catch" said in such awe 🤣🤣

The greatest movie ever. The subtle dialogue throughout kills me every time I watch it.

The choice to include the shot of the dog jumping against his leg during the gun scene was priceless.

So many lines I love to quote: "Your name's Lebowski, Lebowski." "He's fragile, very fragile." "Hmm. I did not know that." "We believe in nothing, Lebowski, nothing." The Larry scene, of course.

"I'm not Mr. Lebowski, you're Mr. Lebowski. I'm the Dude. You can at least call me Duder, his Royal Dudeness, or El Duderino." Lol!!

I think what I love most about this is that it's film noir while being the complete opposite, if that makes sense. Instead of following a hardboiled detective investigating a case, we're following the Dude as he wanders aimlessly in and out of all the other characters' plots. It shouldn't come together as a whole story, but it really does.

11:35 the ultimate comeback 💪🏼

Fun fact: John Goodman's character, Walter, is based on maverick filmmaker John Milius, (Conan The Barbarian, Red Dawn, Dillinger) whom coincidentally, often carried a gun with him on the set of his movies, in case things got out of hand with any of the actors. The gun he carried was a M1911A .45.

THIS! Right here is my favorite movie of all time! I know every word, forwards backwards, im ordained in the Church of the Dude.. i love this movie. I spent a weekend only drinking White Russian’s with my best friend

I think I watched this movie like three or four times before I realized that Walter's dog ran off into the parking lot when they were walking back to the car. It's that kind of thing that makes this movie so incredibly rewatchable.

11:11 sarah is always thinking 💭

The great actor Philip Seymour Hoffman is Mr Lebowski's assistant . Another great movie to react to is The Talented Mr Ripley.

A COEN BROS GEM ….. - NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN (2007)

The woman with the missing toe is singer/songwriter Aimee Mann.

"Hey, the rug's gone!" Good catch indeed. I didn't notice that until my 2nd or 3rd viewing!

The big Lebowski is a much needed "re-watch". It's one of those few movies that genuinely gets better with subsequent viewings. You'll pick up on so much detail you simply can't catch the first time around.

I subscribed a few days ago and i gotta say i really like your commentary so far. You don't fake your reactions like others do. I appreciate the chill vibe : )

My favorite line from Walter: “Life does not stop and start at your convenience, you miserable piece of shit.” 😂

This is one of my favorite movies. Dope reaction 🙌🏾

I'm happy to have discovered you guys. Very good reactions, and you're a likable pair.

8:03 it's a league game 🎳

Always a pleasure watching you two.

Another movie I've never seen but after your laughter and reviews. I'm about to press play on the whole movie! Thanks guys. Loved this ❤

5:21 back when cherry coke had a black can and cherries on it. only been 24 years, quarter decade. milk and alcohol, the sound of it used to make my stomach turn. in reality, it made me go on a week-and-a-half bender, after I learned to substitute kahlua and cream for just a carton of vanilla iced coffee. you can down a pint of vodka without tasting it with one cup of vanilla iced coffee.

I love this movie.

24:10 sarah called it, eric concurred 👍🏼 it was murdered 🔥

One Of Coen's Masterpieces Ever Made, Cool Reaction As Always Eric & Sarah, You Both Take Care

I will watch any Jeff Bridges film just to see him freak out. He does sputtering outrage like no one else. 🤣

33:39 "He looks so scary with the flames" You need to watch Coen brothers's movie Barton Fink (1991), John Goodman is in it too. :)

The Dude just wanted his rug back.

The Dude may be the most passive protagonist in filmdom. He doesn't plan anything - things just happen to him. Despite this, or maybe because of it, he gets to the end of the story in one piece. Other Coen Brothers movies you should watch: No Country for Old Men O Brother Where Art Thou? True Grit (the remake, not the 1969 version with John Wayne) Blood Simple Raising Arizona Miller's Crossing

‘You are the bereaved?’ ‘Yeah, man.’

I heard somewhere (I think it was from a DVD commentary) that the Dude inherited the rights to a patent, and the royalties from it pays him just enough to cover his monthly bills without him having to work.

Hey guys, I found your channel last week and saw the Joker reaction and really liked it. I’ve yet to see your other reactions but I’m sure they’re good too and this one was great as well. I hope to have my own reaction channel one day and it be as entertaining as yours! ☮️ 💙

8:18 It's a league game.

"O Brother Where Art Thou" and "Burn After Reading" are Coen Brothers films also definitely worth a reaction. Also their first film if you like film noir, "Blood Simple."

14:10, lol!! "let's take that hill!"

I'd recommend "Blood Simple", "Raising Arizona", "Hudsucker Proxy" and "Barton Fink".

I mean this the best way possible... U 2 are the coolest nerds i have ever seen

If I ever win the lottery, I am _definitely_ buying Jackie Treehorn's house...

Good music in this movie.

This is such a great and fun movie. Glad you two finally got to experience "the dude" and his Zen mastery 😂. It gets even better with a rewatch or two. imo. Always enjoyable to see your genuine reactions and trying to piece this craziness together. Hope you have a great week. Much love to you both.

This brilliant f**king film is probably my favorite movie of all the times and forevs and sh** like that. “No Country For Old Men” comes in at a close second, I reckon.

can't lie, pretty excited

Great reaction. More classic Coen Brothers include: No Country for Old Men, A Serious Man, and Barton Fink.

Try "Blazing Saddles" (1974).

Really enjoyed your reaction and commentary. For the future: a wonderful movie that put the Cohen Brothers (and Nicholas Cage, John Goodman, among others) on the map is Raisin Arizona.

"The f*****g dog has f*****g papers."

Always love how the dude adopted words and phrases throughout. Then , even in his dream sequence, he takes on the cable man’s outfit and dances like his landlord.

When you started trying to make sense of the plot so far before the opening credits, I knew this reaction was going to be good

All the dude ever wanted was his rug back, man.

"Oh Brother, where art thou" is a great Coen Bros. movie..Also, "Burn after reading."..I love all of their movies, though.

I love it if you did more Coen Bros movies. I can give you some recommendations

14:30, that's his answer to everything! Lol!!

I'm dying for you guys to check out "Raising Arizona", that is (with "Fargo") my favorite of their movies. It's their second film. Their first one, "Blood Simple" is also great. "Burn After Reading" is fun. All three have Frances McDormand in them (she's married to one of the Coen Brothers). But definitely check out "Raising Arizona", there's no other movie like it! Wild! "Blood Simple" too! If all they had done were those first two movies, they'd still be legendary!

- DONNIE BRASCO (1997) - A BRONX TALE (1993) - CASINO (1995) - CARLITO’S WAY (1993)

I really enjoyed your reaction to one of my favorite movies of all time and I'm glad you enjoyed it too. :) If I may recommend a few other great movies: The Departed - A gangster/mafia movie by Martin Scorsese starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg and many other notable actors. Inception - In my opinion one of Christopher Nolan's best, if not THE best movie with some great action scenes and a mind fucking script. Leonardo DiCaprio again in the lead role, supported by many notable actors like Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Tom Hardy, Elliot Page and Marion Cotillard. The film won a lot of awards and deserved them all. Training Day: Denzel Washington won an Oscar for his role and Ethan Hawke was nominated for Best Supporting Actor. The movie is about a rookie cop (Ethan Hawke) who is having his first day with his new partner (Denzel Washington). And what a day he has. Not one you'd wish on anyone, but definitely one that makes a great plot for a movie. :) León - It's the first major role in a movie for then 12-year-old Natalie Portman and she played her part with an Oscar-worthy performance. Jean Reno plays the male lead here as a professional killer. The film is heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time and belongs in any list of top films for me. I recommend the director's cut, because in my opinion too much of the character depth is lost in the original US version of the film. Man on Fire - Again starring Denzel Washington, this time as a washed-up ex-cop who takes a job as a bodyguard. Dakota Fanning, still very young at the time, plays the girl he has to protect. It is a brutal, but also heartbreaking film with a once again outstanding Denzel Washington. Lucky Number Slevin - It's certainly the underdog among my suggestions and maybe not the best film to generate a lot of clicks and likes because it's not that well known. But it's definitely a fun gangster movie with Josh Hartnett, Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Ben Kingsley and an adorable Lucy Liu. If you haven't seen any of these movies yet, I recommend you do :) See you soon and stay well :)

Jellie shoes... awww yeah

A lot of Coen brothers movies revolve around kidnapping/ransom and/or missing money. Fargo, Lebowski, Blood Simple, Raising Arizona, No Country for old men, The Man who Wasn’t their, LadyKillers……and so on.

If you do a third Cohen Brothers movie, it should be Raising Arizona.

23:19, lol!!

22:33, lol!!

25:51, lol!!!

Nice

This was ridiculously fun watching you guys react to this. Really loving your channel! That's just like my opinion man. Hope you check out some Tarantino movies. Now have a couple white russians and buy some jelly sandals for Sarah.

The Dude wears jellies, which are usually considered women's sandals in the US, but they are also men's in the UK and Australia. Also I asked a mortuary if this scene happens, folks coming in with coffee cans for ashes, and he said "Everyone grieves differently" which was a very polite yes.

Another great reaction guys !! Looking forward to your reaction to The Batman next week. Please put the following movies on your list "The Spanish Prisoner" and "Glengarry Glen Ross". Both movies are David Mamet movies which, like the Coen brothers movies, have a very distinct style. You won't believe the cast in Glengarry Glen Ross. It's a classic !!

Love this movie and it made me start listening to Kraftwerk (lol the Nihilist) again.

How did John Goodman not get a Oscar nomination at the very least?

I've been watching Jeff Bridges since his first movies and he is one of my favorite actors. He's been in such a wide variety of movies and he always fits into his parts. It's kind of weird to hear you say that you're not familiar with Bridges work since I've been watching his remarkable acting for like 40 years and I can't think of many other actors who have such an incredible body of work. Jack Nicholson (another favorite of mine) is the only other actor I can think of who comes close. That having been said if you want to see some great acting in a lot of great movies then I hope you'll go back and start from the beginning of his career and watch all his movies in order. Then you'll see what I mean about his greatness as an actor. Just off the top of my head I reccoment Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (with Clint Eastwood) The Fabulous Baker Boys (with his brother Beau Bridges) Wild Bill (directed I believe by Robert Altman), and the more recent remake of True Grit. But you really should watch all his movies, there really isn't a bad one in the bunch. You won't be disappointed.

I know Smokey. He's one of the best country singers ever

"I think there's more to this guy (the dude)" No, not really. 😎

Yes that was Flea.

Love your beauty marks.

Another funny Coen Brothers movie is Raising Arizona starring Nicholas Cage. Strongly recommended!

The Dude man!!!!!!!!

You should be unique and watch Miller’s Crossing. No one is doing it reacting to it, Barton Fink is good too.

One of the themes is actually film noir. Specifically, the Big Sleep. The dude is a stand-in for an antihero detective, Maud and Bunny are the femme fatales, the millionaire sets them on their case, and he gets beat up a lot like Bogart did, and in the end, the resolution is more of a pyrrhic victory with much not resolved.

If you wanna watch an old movie with connections to this one, maybe an old Raymond Chandler, The Big Sleep is pretty good.

"Well that's like just your opinion man"

"One generation passes away, and another generation comes: but the earth abides forever." Ecclesiastes 1:4. This is what Sam Elliot is referring to in his final monologue. That's what his final speech is really about. And the fact that there is a "Little Lebowski" is what he is talking about as far as the Generations continuing.

I have similar friends like this...you just have to roll

i love phillip seymour hoffman in this movie

Man, YT gave me an ad for a rug sale. Does the algorithm really work that well? I do need something to tie the room together though.
