Lebowski backlash in full effect I'd imagine

I am wondering if Goodman's Walter was meant as a cartoony rip of David Mamet -- similar beard, crazed Zionist etc … in a nutshell: The Big Sleep is funnier."
oh great, I'm going to be hearing every Morbius post in Stewie Grifin's voice from here on out

I did enjoy Lebowski, despite not being a stoner. Go figure.

Lebowski is awful.

borderline unwatchable bc of cultural saturation and worn out jokes & wayyyyyy too long.

I've seen Lebowski a bunch of times and it has its moments, but I never understood the immense praise it receives.

the cultural phenomenon surrounding lebowski is irritating if you pay attention, but the movie itself is wonderful.

Sorry brahs, but if you hate Lebowski, you basically hate fun. HANG LOOSE!

Lebowski ran away with that old poll. I suppose the cult has lowered its status in the meantime.
