YMMV: Napoleon Dynamite

Film

  • Awesome Music - "Canned Heat" by Jamiroquai (used for THAT DANCE SCENE) and "We're Going To Be Friends" by The White Stripes.
    • "The Promise" by When In Rome.
    • "Music For a Found Harmonium" used at the end when everything is being tied up. More like Crowning Music of Heartwarming, but still.
  • Big Lipped Alligator Moment (In-Universe) - Napoleon's dance scene at the finale is this to his audience.
  • Crowning Moment Of Awesome: The state of Idaho passing a resolution honoring the filmmakers for portraying Idaho so positively.
  • Funny Moments:, The crotch zapping time machine, Napoleon's dance near the end, Kipp's attempt to demonstrate the strength of a Tupperware bowl using Rico's van, the list goes on.
  • Fountain of Memes: Everything Napoleon says. "Gosh!" "Frickin' idiot!" "I like your sleeves." "Fine!"
  • Hype Backlash
  • Love It or Hate It: Netflix's recommendation system, which is generally quite accurate, just can't predict how people will rate this movie. [1]
  • Watch It for the Meme - Or at least, the lines all your friends have been repeating ad nauseum.
