>It became cleare that part of The Big Lebowski's appeal was that for a generation who has been pressured to excel since birt and who then upon reaching adulthood were faced with the bait-and-switch of a service-based economy in which not only will they most certianily make less than their parents did salary-wise, but they also will be saddled with their parents' debt... where the ruler of the free world was C-student GW Bush overseeing one of the biggest mediocracies in the history of US government... given these things, a movie that presents as its protagonist a man who is weed-addled but educated, with no career ambitions beyond the bowling finals but who is still somehow presented in a heroic light, as a loyal, nonjudgemental person, a good person, at peace with himself despite being, in the minds of harsher critics, a doofus loser... welll... what's not to like?
