Look at that shiny waxed floor. I really hope my #1 makes it. It's my Step Brothers pick of course.

Napoleon Dynamite is trash. I hated this movie so much when it came out and considering the hype it got - it ended up being one of the biggest disappointments of all time.
Looking back though I can appreciate it for what it meant to culture and how popular this tiny little movie became. It was constantly quoted (still is sometimes) and you can still buy Vote for Pedro t-shirts. That's not something a ton of movies , especially movies of this ilk can claim. It deserves props but I'll forever consider it trash.

Ness , no movies made it with less than 18 points. Solo #1's weren't even close. I feel like it made 3 lists. Maybe 4.

Napoleon Dynamite is one of those movies that completely caught me off guard. I swear I laughed mostly, because I didn't know what else to do. It was such strange humor and I ended up loving it. It didn't make my list, maybe it should have, but it didn't. I just looked in my outbox. Did I forget to send you my list UT?

I've seen clips of Napoleon Dynamite many years ago because it has a cult following, it did not click at all. I get serious Step Brothers vibes, vibes that have been confirmed by Ness. I'm staying far away.

It’s nothing like Step Brothers. Not in quality or type of humor.
Is there a star more hurt by his career defining role than Heder? He’s been in a few movies here and there and has done okay but he will never escape being Napoleon and I think his career probably suffered for it.

To clarify, it's always a very positive (HIV joke!) distraction. -_-

I still drop this sick burn often to this day. My kids have no idea what is going on when I say it either, which makes it that much sweeter.

Election is a weird one , I remember watching it for the first time for one of our first lists and liking it , not loving it but over time the memory and stuff I remember about it grow and grow on me. Some really dumb yet great quotes (I use the fuck and a hot tub one joking with the wife) just are better in hindsight.
Still though , Reese is awesome in it and it's amazing and a credit to her that she didn't get typecast as a Tracey Flick type going forward like happened with Heder and Napoleon because she was so great and believable as that character. Broderick is someone I'm not a huge fan of so him being pretty unlikable works well for me and Klein just comes in to be the dumb guy and might be the GOAT at that character type.
Also crazy to me that this got nominated for Adapted Screenplay. Don't see that too often with movies of this type.

Election is one of a handful of movies I've seen in America. I enjoyed it enough to make my list at #8. Tracey Flick is a great character and I love the dynamic between her and Broderick's character. It's an interesting story that doesn't decent too much into juvenile humour as far as I remember.

Good movie, but not one I think about too much. Minus specific countdowns like this.

I love Election. The end with Broderick throwing the soda kills me every time. I had it at number three.

I love Election as well for all the reasons mentioned and, similar to UT, have an ever-growing appreciation for its brilliance. Probably my favorite Chris Klein performance, and up there for Reese and Broderick too. My #6 only because of the strength of the five above it for me.
