Have you guys seen Napoleon Dynamite? Oh man, it's so freakin' funny! I was like laughing the whole time! My favorite line is, "Come get your dinner you fat lard!" haha...good times good times. If you haven't seen it, you should! It's great!

That movie was based on the life of a guy in Amanda's friend Jessica's ward.

It's supposed to be a really funny movie...I'll have to go see it sometime.

--------------------------------------

"I'm tired of giving in, you're blind and bleeding, and I feel so stupid for letting you tell me I had to change, and I believed it. And I feel so stupid for letting you..."

Was it really? So he's Mormon? That is so weird!

To me it looks kinda really stupid. lol I'm just gonna have to wait and rent it when it comes out which will be really soon since all the movies are coming out way fast now!

Me and my friend were talking about it yesterday. i think that it is way cool that he is mormon! Hey did you know that Paul Walker (from fast & the Furious) is Mormon, well at least he grew up mormon and i think his parents still are but i'm not sure about that cuz i read it in a magazine and it didn't say much about it.

I've heard of it, but I've never seen it. I had a girl and my counselor at EFY who had seen it and were talking about it the whole week it was funny, because nobody else had see it so the whole week was just them saying lines from the movie and us looking at them like they were dumb. 8O

Gosh, it's such a small world.

That does kinda look funny, but I'm not sure if it's going to come to our theater. It might later on, since we have eight screens now in our movie theater. :D But yeah, I will probably just rent it.

Oh yeah! I knew that, too, that Paul Walker was mormon. I'm not sure if he's like active... Doesn't he have a son?

He has a daughter...and I was reading an article on him when 2Fast2Furious came out...she doesn't know he's an actor. She's like 3 or something, but was like 2 when they taped the movie, and she would be on set and think that Daddy was just working on cars. :D

I haven't seen it yet, but my boss and some of my friends were extras in a few scenes. glamorous huh 8)

Hey!! My sister saw that movie. She said it was dumb. But you can't always trust her opinion of good movies. And my boss said that she saw it and loved it, so I guess it's one of those "your own opinion" type things.
Happy_go_lucky: that film was shot in your town!! Cool, huh?? Right where I grew up, and where you live now!! I think that's awesome!!
Anyway, I'll go now.

I'm probably going to go see it this weekend with a friend. But my other friend I work with was telling me about it and she is always quoting it and she tells me that I need to see it. She has seen it 2 times now and she's going to buy it when it comes out. I'm way excited to see it. I laugh at the one liners she tells me and that's not even the movie, so in the movie it's probably funnier. And yeah I've heard "Come on Tina, you fat Lard come and eat" a lot from her. But yeah I can't wait to see it because I love to laugh!!! I know I'm going to cry because I'm going to laugh so hard or my face and stomach are going to hurt.

"Freakin No!"

YAY Napolean Dynamite is coming to our theater... I think I want to check it out! I also want to see Wicker Park and Cellular. hehe... I don't think Wicker Park is at our theater and so maybe I'll go to two movies in a row. That would be fun. :D

"I'm gonna build her a cake or somesing"...I love this movie!

--------------------------------------

"I'm tired of giving in, you're blind and bleeding, and I feel so stupid for letting you tell me I had to change, and I believed it. And I feel so stupid for letting you..."

Trish - "Is Napoleon there?"
Napoleon - "Yeah."
Trish - "Can I talk to him?"
Napoleon - "You already are."

haha that's my most favorit-ist movie ever! My Young Womens leaders are going to take us next week for mutual! I'm so excited!

"Things are getting pretty serious. I mean, we chat online for like 2 hours every day. So I'd say things are getting pretty serious."

Have you seen the second ending? haha "I love technology. But not as much as you you see. But I still love technology. Always and forever."

Did you guys know that the ones who made this film first entered it into the LDS film festival? Then they went and shot it into a full length film and put it in the Sundance Festival. When they sold the rights to the film there, it made these three guys RICH!!! (I think it was sold for arounf four million dollars) All three are from BYU and the one guy Jared is one of the camera guys when Telos filmed for Jericho Road. You can see him on the DVD when they are filming the "making of the video" and he's also on RM in the beginning when the RM goes home after having been dumped by his girlfriend and the dad is talking to those two guys trying to get them to sign up for the food storage stuff. Jared plays the nerdy geeky guy. Too funny! He's good!

Everyone loves this movie but I personally think it is totally stupid. it is just so random. Me and Matt had heard that it was so good so we went for date night and ended up walking out of the movie about half way through.

lol the guy who actually plays Napoleon Dynamite in the movie is at BYU right now, and my bro says he is in the student directory, he was like "I have his phone number!" hehe

At work on Halloween, each department dresses up with some "theme" and they have a contest between departments. Last year we all wore tin foil hats on our heads like in the movie "Signs". But a lot of people thought we were Hershey's Kisses...
This year we're all going to wear "Vote For Pedro" shirts, Wranglers tucked into moon boots and big glasses. If we can find fro wigs we'll wear those too...should be really funny! We were each going to dress up like a different character from the movie, but there's too many of us.

Vee and I went to see it on Saturday night. It was my second time, Vee's first. Let me tell you, it's SO much funnier the second time! I was laughing before things even happened! Amanda's seen it 6 times now...crazy huh!

The guys who play Napoleon and Kip are both married...wonder what they look like in real life?

"I'm tired of giving in, you're blind and bleeding, and I feel so stupid for letting you tell me I had to change, and I believed it. And I feel so stupid for letting you..."

I really liked the show....and not just because I was on a hot date! hehe No really it was way funny to me. It was his second time seeing it and my first. But oh that was a great night!!! My favorite part is "You caught like 3 feet of air that time, can I try?" or how ever the line goes. I saw it two weeks ago, I can't remember word for word. Oh and at Rexburg when Bret said "Let's see if you can do the Napoleon Dynamite dance." Well, now I know what that dance is....lol hahahahahaha oh my! 8O :lol: oh geez that was great!

LOL! I still haven't seen this, but my parents did, and I have iron on letters from American Eagle and my mom last night said, "Hey, make a "Vote for Pedro" shirt and then like a minute later I read what you wrote, Court! LOL I knew she was talking about the movie... and my brother also saw it and when I has to give my speech for secretary, my brother said to say, "If you vote me, I'll make all your dreams come true." And have a nerd come out and dance. Guess I just gotta go see the movie! My mom wanted to go last night, but it was already 9:00 and we wouldn't have made it. Anyways! I suggested we go on wednesday, so hopefully then... :D

Hil, you should SO do that! It would be hilarious! Yeah, in the movie he says, "If you vote for me, all your wildest dreams will come true!" It's great! Make sure that the person who comes out to dance is wearing a "Vote For Hilary" shirt, and jeans tucked into moon boots. It would be classic!

--------------------------------------

"I'm tired of giving in, you're blind and bleeding, and I feel so stupid for letting you tell me I had to change, and I believed it. And I feel so stupid for letting you..."

LOL I would totally do it, but I already gave my speech last week... I think I just typed it wrong.

Oh! That would have been so funny! So, when are elections? If they haven't happened yet, you should make shirts that say "Vote For Pedro" but cross out Pedro and put Hilary underneath...
