Highly enjoyable. While the mouths aren't really animated a lot of Walter's expressions were very funny.

Some people have way too much time on their hands.

Ahahha.. fucking great idea. Too bad the beginning is the only part thats at all animated.

Very Nice... Maybe Nintendo should think about a Wii Mii movie making game? That could bet kind of entertaining for a while.

"Across this line, you do not!"

That's always been one of my favorite lines from that scene, and I'm pretty sure it was actually a flub.

very very nice. couldn't have picked a better movie to pay tribute to.

though i'm sure all they did was pick up on the bowling correlation.

but it was sorta boring if you know the movie. it's just like a face sitting there occasionally changing expression. bravo, though. now, once wii gets a police minigame they'll have to do a super troopers one.

look, people, the wii is not what's at hand here.
we're talking about some unchecked aggression!

thats bad ass!

This started off good, but there were just way too many long shots of heads against a white background. A limitation of the Wii, or a rush job? I'm not sure. Still, it hints at good stuff to come.

The Big Lebowski is great, also joystiq are you guys using the "Wii" as the i at the end or just misspelling the name of the flick?

Why is this so amazing? A friggin' 2 yr. old could put something similar on YouTube in 5 min. This is definately a disservice to a great movie.

What a hell of a video ... kinda makes my day its so funny lol

Ryan D. @ Nov 28th 2006 9:38PM

Ahhh yes..

The first thing I did after I got the Wii on launch day was make "The Jesus" as a Mii.. a night later that became the rest of the cast.. It's just.. it's a perfect fit.

Our Walter Sobchak doesn't have grey hair though.. I don't know WHAT'S up with that!
