What's a movie that you can always watch?

Can someone enlighten me on the Big Lebowski? Typically I am a huge Cohen Bros. fan but this one- I hated it. I tried watching again but it was a bore. couldn't connect. What do you all like about it?

Yours was the comment of the thread. +rep, gold stars and all that shite

But just that: I get the rug thing, that's classic Cohen, but the rest just fell flat for me. Oh well.

The Big Lebowski

Hooka, it might be a guy thing. Animal House, Caddyshack, etc are classic sophomoric humor, pretty much liked by at least 80% of the males I've known.. TBL is a bit more sophisticated and cunningly appealing to approaching middle-aged guys. And with Bridges, Bucsemie and Goodman, its nigh impossible to go wrong

Not to belabor the point SM, I love guy humor. And I own every one of the movies you mentioned LOL. Maybe it's the second reason you stated. Oh and Jeff Bridges is a master. loved True Grit, and Crazy Heart. The man can play anything. Very versatile. Unlike a George clooney who is pretty much George Clooney in every movie.
