200: Kingpin (1996)

200 EPISODES!! It's been a long time coming, but we finally made it! 200 episodes of the Dissect That Film Podcast! What a better way to celebrate a massive milestone than by jumping into a genre we don't play around in too often, comedy. More specifically, sports comedy. This week, we look at the Farrelly Brothers film that came after there massive hit Dumb and Dumber, 1996's KINGPIN. With the comedy chops of Woody Harrelson and Randy Quaid, it shows the unorthodox partnership of a washed up, one handed former pro bowler and a Amish prodigy. What else needs to be said? Well I guess we should ask, is it underrated? Why did it fail at the box office? Why don't these movies exist anymore? Lets try to answer those and more as we celebrate this massive achievement.
