Always and Forever

I watched NAPOLEON DYNAMITE for the third time today. Heidi had not seen it, and I also wanted to check out the extra scene they added in at the end. I still laughed a lot this time around, and it's still the funniest movie of the year.

Like all good comedies, it's the small, random things that make you laugh with repeat viewings:

• Napoleon missing the first time he tries to put a sai through his belt loop.
• Uncle Rico laughing after hitting Napoleon on the head with a steak.
• Something (spider web?) stuck in Napoleon's hair when he's watching Pedro do his "sweet jump."
• Napoleon exhaling after playing tetherball.
• The way Uncle Rico says "Napoleon."
• Pedro still wearing his FFA medal while taking a bath.
• Napoleon faking out Uncle Rico twice before finally pegging him with an orange.
• The way Pedro runs.
• The pause during Napoleon's current event report.
• "Last week, Japanese scientists explaced... placed explosive detonators at the bottom of Lake Lochness to blow Nessy out of the water."
• The fact that Napoleon is always the one actually riding the Sledgehammer. Pedro rides on the pegs.
• Napoleon's mispronunciation of certain words, like "numchuks" and "afinity."
• "La Faunduh"
• Napoleon throws food at Tina, but it actually lands right at his feet.
• "Hold on, I forgot to put in the crystals."
• Pretty much anything that comes out Kip's mouth.

The extra scene at the end wasn't that great, but it did have Kip singing. I love this movie.
