The Dude abides

I discovered Bowling about a year ago and it is really something. A full sensory experience. The sounds and sights of the ball spinning and the pins crashing. The immediate soreness when the adrenaline wears off after a 12-game session, and you have to lug your ball bag out of the alley to your car in the parking lot. The smell and taste of the snack bar and the beverage you enjoy between frames. And if you're lucky, the place has a jukebox with some of your fave tunes and bands.

Your right. The end says at all! I like the film a lot. Living like him is almost impossible because you need some money to pay the rent and a car. That's the only question. I know there are some theories about that.

The Dude abides..

You know, I really needed to hear some of this today. Thanks.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Clear and concise! You did a wonderful job here and I’ll subscribe just because of this video!

I keep on coming back to this video because I love the commentary. Nice job dude.

One of my favorite movies and characters for exactly what you’ve explained. Well done

Great analysis.

To coin a phrase from the movie, I take great comfort in your analysis .

This is a very pleasant analysis to me although some might say that it is ''just like your opinion, man''.

The video has been recorded in a mirror mode … left is right and vice versa

Im so pumped to be the first to comment on this amazing commentary. Congratulations on a beautiful video. I take a lot from it. Thanks. The Dude Abides

Very good

Far out men !

What in God's name are you blathering about?

Well fucking said.

If the dude was really unemployeed, how was he able to pay the rent for his Venice bungalow in the early 90's? Was he a trust fund baby? Inheritance beneficiary? Rubics cubes? Lots of ins, lots of outs... Lots of what have yous

That's like your opinion man...

What in god’s holy name are you blathering about?

Naw. If you go through life doing nothing. Having nothing. Being nothing, you're a bum. At least thats what Vincent Vega said.

While there seemed to be a bit of decent analysis (saying this as someone who hasn't watched the movie) at the core of this video, your discussion and comparison of nihilism, existentialism, and absurdism seemed like it could've gone deeper, and at times I felt doubtful that you yourself understood these positions very well. I understand this is a short film analysis video, not a philosophy video, so I didn't expect an hour long discussion of different existentialist schools of thought or anything, but I think most existential philosophers would disagree with what you have laid out as _the_ existentialist position. If you take time to get a decent understanding of the concepts you're discussing before making a video about them, your viewers will get a better video and you'll learn more yourself in the process. Also, I'm sure you're aware of this but if you plan to keep on with videos like this you probably want to script them out a bit more, both for general polish (avoiding stutters, pauses, grammatical errors) and to ensure in advance that you express your ideas clearly and in a logical order. I know no one likes unasked-for advice but just thought I'd give some feedback from my initial watch of one of your videos. Good luck!
