How can this be anyone's favorite movie? It doesn't even have a plot. It is so sophomoric it is almost painful to watch.

I saw it and didn't think it was very funny, either.
And anyone here that knows me knows that I have a rather crass and immature sense of humor sometimes.
Pretty much the only funny parts in the movie were him dancing at the end and the part with the mule where he's all like, "Tina, eat the food. Tina, you fat lard, eat the food. EAT THE FOOD!!"

I'm not adopted and I'm not an Indian.
It's just a coincidence that I have
a love of gambling and booze
and a knack for catching syphilis.
I can see how it's hard for some people to get into it but it got me right at the first. I put in the movie thinking, this is going to be so stupid why am I even watching it, but then he got on the bus, sat down and that kid said, "what are you gonna do today Napoleon" and Napoleon said, "whatever the frig I feel like doing, gosh!" and that was it, I was laughing my butt off for the rest of the movie.

I saw part of it since it was playing in the pub when I was there during a spare, I'll have to watch it all since it does look pretty good from what I saw.
