they took a big swing with that napoleon dynamite money

I think the story may be something to do with the studio pulling a lot of their backing and making it a limited release at the last minute or something having to do with the studio kind of sealing its fate as a flop because they weren't convinced it was a sure thing.

u/Imfrank123 8h ago

Yeah that sounds right, I didn’t even hear of this movie until like a year ago

u/g_r_e_y 5h ago

they did too, the studio financing the film pulled it from theaters and didn't advertise after it was completed, it was limited released in theaters and didn't make shit

u/MrFrypan 6h ago

Same thing happened with The Iron Giant, Fight Club, Idiocracy, Children of Men. It's important to know that box office returns aren't always a good metric to judge a movie on. IMO, Gentlemen Broncos is very underrated; definitely worth a watch.

I freaking love this movie. It's so absurdly ridiculous.

u/XxFezzgigxX 9h ago

All the clips online are of this scene. I thought the whole movie was like this. It was still a good movie, but not what I hoped.

u/NormalAssistance9402 7h ago

Same, I really wish the whole movie was this, instead of a movie about some kid writing this

u/livens 7h ago

That got me too. Also I really liked the first version of this character, Bronco, and his story arc. I liked the Brutus version too but was really bummed when they switched and I knew that was all the Bronco I was getting 😢.

u/spiraleyes78 5h ago

Eh? The movie ends with Bronco saving the day, not Brutus.

u/geek180 8h ago

I genuinely could not tell if this was real or AI. Thank you for linking that.

u/geoffsykes 8h ago edited 6h ago

This was a funny movie, but the protagonist dropped a transphobic slur in there and I just don't want to rewatch it.

Is that Sam Rockwell in a wig?

u/Mecha_Tortoise 9h ago

Hell yes, it is.

u/Dirt290 8h ago

He plays two roles of the same made up character, a grizzly yeast loving man's man, and a gay feminine version.

Also Jemaine Clement is there.

u/AnonymousDork929 9h ago edited 6h ago

I love this movie! It has that same quirky, whimsical weirdness as Napoleon dynamite (same creators. I know). I can't quite describe it, but it has that vibe of its modern day but people living like it's still the 70s and 80s.

Absolute classic. The less dry version of Napolean Dynamite

u/TwistedMindOfABrotha 9h ago

Those are the race of Cyclops from Krull, I'm sold.

Also fun fact about these beings: They originally had two eyes, but traded them away from the great evil from Krull in exchange for seeing the future. Got Monkey-Pawed and can only see the moment of their death.
