all adam sandler and chris farley movies are formula movies. they're funny for what they're worth. at least napoleon dynomite was something different.
By different you mean crap, right?
yeah the holocaust was different too but it didn't go over well.
Se7en was different, napoleon was crap, what was so special or different about it?
So the equation is: Holocaust = Napoleon Dynamite
Funny to some but not all
napoleon dynomite was unique, it was kind of like the movie 'slacker' but funnier. i guess its just one of those you either love it or hate it.

do you have some sort of quota where you need to fit jew, holocaust or hitler into X number of threads daily?
I believe it's 6 million a day

so its original by being like another movie.
But the difference was that Slacker actually included comedy.

Tommy Boy was amazing.
Harold & Kumar was great.
Billy Madison was medicore, but had one amazing amazing scene ("What you've just said was the most insanely idiotic....."
Happy Gilmore was better than Billy Madison.
Napolean Dynamite had nothing good about it. Nothing.
undisputible indeed
she has never seen tommy boy, even though i did get "fat maaan in a littlllllee coaaaaaaat" stuck in her head one night.
well its indisputable, i can't dispute that.
billy madison was 100 times more unique than napoleon dynamite.
billy madison is a lowest common denominator hollywood dick and fart joke comedy. which, i occassionally find enjoyable. but you're a walking douche chill if you thinks its "original"
but what was original about napoleon dynamite? it's revenge of the nerd without all the other nerds.
the complete absurdity of billy madison is pretty unmatched in mainstream comedies. napoleon dynamite was just riding the "quirkiness" trend and not doing it very well.
