I thought this was screamingly funny when it came out. It was the movie everyone quoted until “Napoleon Dynamite” came out. I tried rewatching it maybe a year or two ago and it’s aged like milk. Too much of the comedy relies on unhealthy stereotypes & tropes.
I think dude where’s my car is a positive movie making light of negative anti light tropes though.
The movie is oft’ seen as a hidden metaphor for two male friends getting drunk and having a night of passion together. This is because it begins with them waking up with a hangover, on the sofa together, and a random naked man walks out of their closet in the background. Then walks back in when they bottle the question of “what did we do last night?” and refuse to revisit it.
It’s purposefully stupid so the tropes don’t bother me, the reason it was funny at the time was because the tropes hadn’t been established as much. It’s like saying old art is boring cause everyone does that now not realizing it was the OG. I still liked it and we watched it for movie night once and my at the time 19 and 21 year old kids liked it, we all quote it now.
I nominate “Dude, Where’s My Car?”.
