P1: The Big Lebowski is a comic masterpiece that is endlessly quotable and remixable
P2: The sucess, and near perfection, of this movie argues strongly against making a sequel
P3: For the rest of time, if you wanted to talk about the '98 "Lebowski", youd have to say something like 'in the first movie' or 'in the origional'
C: Making a sequel to "The Big Lebowski" is a terrable idea

The truth of the second premise really depends on one's perspective. A filmmaker might claim that its success and near perfection means that a sequel would be successful by association, and therefore making one would be a good idea.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jon about the second premise. And I think that anyone influenced by the luster of this movie would agree with it being a good idea to stop with the first movie.
