Been scoping their sketches on Youtube, they're really funny!  Thanks for the heads-up.

Not a problem.

I had to decide between starting a new thread about Eagle vs. Shark and being directed to this thread, or bumping up this thread and taking any abuse that may come my way, and I chose the latter :P

Saw this movie when I was in Toronto, and it was a great experience (so was being in a North-American theatre for the first time, I must add). I haven't seen Napoleon Dynamite, so I can't say whether or not the two're at all similar, but Eagle vs. Shark at least was wonderfully sweet and CHARMING, and very satisfying. It didn't rely on truckloads of sarcasm for the humour, which I think made it a lot more accessible. Not too much slapstick, no toilet-humour, no quick, sharp wit or clever wordplay from the main characters at least (because they're, well, kinda retarded). And yet most of us were laughing and enjoying ourselves throughout the movie. Sign of great writing and acting, that is, think I :) the lead actress was so adorable I fell in love with her despite her apparent retardation (shush, I can't think of a better word at this time of night!).

I'd recommend it. Of course, I didn't have to pay to see it, but I think I would've :)

Cheers!

PS. Pretty sweet soundtrack, too!
