''Pom Pom as Walter Sobchak''

'''''[[The Big Lebowski]]''''' is a 1998 comedy film written and directed by [[Joel and Ethan Coen]] starring [[Jeff Bridges]] and [[John Goodman]]. The movie has become a cult classic for its originality and direction, eccentric characters, and convoluted plot. [[The Brothers Chaps]] sometimes slip references to this movie in [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] cartoons.
