Friday Fun: Feel Like Dancin'
Some pure fun and silliness.
Napoleon Dynamite was one of those movies with a weird sense of humor that people either loved, hated, or just said- huh? I'm in the love it group. (If you ever felt like a misfit in high school, you'll love it. Really.)
Now who doesn't wanna get up and dance? An appropriate way to finish off the week.

Ha, ha! I never saw this movie Jen. How come his T-shirt says "Vote for Pedro" Is Pedro in the movie? Is he Pedro? Oh.. I bet that has nothing to do with the movie.. LOL!
It was fun to watch. Happy weekend to you too Jen!
ok, i am NOT with you on this one. although i got the movie, it's humor was just lost on me. although, i have loved the lead in this movie in several other films.
Alicia-- Pedro is Napoleon's best friend who runs for class president. (Pedro wins, BTW!) ;-)
Christine-- See? That's what I mean! Part of it, though, is that I have a teenage boy, and Jon Heder nails the character completely.
(A boy who, when he came home with a bag of Halloween candy and found out it only weighed 10 pounds, said- "Gosh! It's like 45 pounds, duh!" Which sounded like classic Napoleon to me.) :-D
Totally love Napoleon Dynamite.
My grown children adore it.
A Christmas favorite and we all sit round talking about "building a cake"
etc.
It is so touching because everyone's dreams come true - in a batty sort of way.
Sweet, Elizabeth! ;-)
It really has a cult following- so many quotable moments. True about the ending. I get weepy!
This was my favorite scene in the movie.
My mother grew up in small-town Idaho and said so *much* of this movie felt spookily familiar. :-)
That's neat, Tara! I think part of the appeal too was that so many of the characters are universal, wherever you grow up. :-)
GOSH! I love that movie. Thanks for the clip.
I must have watched it a million times though. I was Napoleon Dynamite for Halloween a few years back, so I had to learn all the moves and cool quotes.
I must say it was a big hit. All the kids wanted their picture taken with me.
Made a vote for Pedro shirt just like that one, but I had a hard time finding boots like his down here.
Aw Frank, no moon boots down there?! At least you're pretty good at drawing, like animals and warriors and stuff... (Teehee-- don't get me started with the quotes!) ;-D
"It's a Liger" and yes, I have skills.
Flippin sweet, Frank. That's pretty much my favorite animal. :-D
Don't get me started, this could go on forever.
By the way Jennifer, I reckon... you know a lot about... cyberspace? You ever come across anything... like time travel?
Dang, Frank! I wish I could go back in time. I'd take state!
Glad to know we're pretty much friends by now, right?
Okay, okay... must get to work!!!!
