In Reply to: Hey, Lynch. Here's some clarification for ya... posted by CrescentFreshDude on December 27, 2000 at 20:49:12:

: About "Dude, Where's My Car?" - You are missing the point ENTIRELY. DWMC
: was pointless, poorly put together, had a shitty plot, and was a film for
: those who laugh at complete stupidity. In short, it DID NOT BELONG IN A
: THEATER. Such is it's brilliance. It was a waste of money, because it was
: of poor quality. That's ONE of the reasons I LIKED it...

: As for YOUR examples of "total nonsense humor": You are a fucking fool.
: BASEketball = Not nonsense humor. Airplane = Not nonsense humor. Those fall
: into a different catagory. Spaceghost and Sifl and Olly are, indeed,
: nonsense humor. For example: Any Spaceghost fan who has watched the episode
: entitled "Jacksonville" can tell you that it makes little sense. Of course,
: if you haven't seen it, that statement is of little relevance.

: Let me approach this from a different angle: Humor that isn't SET UP, that
: doesn't follow a formula, that is, in fact, the OPPOSITE of general humor
: is what nonsense humor is defined as. I am going to cite an example from
: DWMC - When they goto a tailor and put on two custom Fila suits that they
: had apparently bought the night before, one pulls a dove out of his pocket.
: That is one example of what I am talking about. Or, there is a point in the
: movie when they goto a pizza shop. A man tosses some dough up into the air,
: and, in oppose to CATCHING it, it lands on his face and he simply stands
: there. There are many other moments I can think of, but I have a feeling my
: argument is rather futile.

: In closing, don't knock a genre of humor that you don't fully grasp. You
: don't grasp it because you're looking for TOO much, when there is acually
: nothing behind the funny moment or the punchline that you just heard or
: saw. Those who seek reasoning do not like nonsense humor.
