Lebowski Trivia!

[zamboni]

How much is the check The Dude writes for his half n half at the store?

[cbrooks]

I'm going with 53 cents

[polarsusd81]

69 cents, on 9/11.

Funny thing is, a few scenes later Marty tells Dude that "Tomorrow is already the tenth."

[SkunkedAgain]

Agreed, 69 cents. Although if you think about it, it's not a movie incongruity that he writes the check for 9/11 but we later learn that it's almost the tenth. The Dude is post-dating his check because he doesn't have the funds to cover such a large bill.

[SkunkedAgain]

What year and model car does the Dude drive?

[bobbymalone]

It's a Torino, but I didn't know the year... had to look it up: 1973

What well known musician played one of the nihilists?

[Harmonica Bear]

Aimee Mann - I had just read that yesterday, I'll call that cheating.

Maude's art is referred to as being strongly...?

[bobbymalone]

Aimee Mann - I had just read that yesterday, I'll call that cheating.

Huh, I guess I did not know there were multiple correct answers

Who is the other famous musician that plays one of the nihilists?

Maude's art bothers some men. The word itself makes some men uncomfortable.

[Harmonica Bear]

Flea of Red Hot Chili Pepper fame? (I guess I knew that)

here is what I read yesteday that stuck in my mind - "Aimee Mann: The musician is the nine-toed Nihilist woman who we see briefly at the diner".

[polarsusd81]

What is the Dude's only line specifically to Donny? There is only one that I have found in the whole movie.

[zamboni]

When Donnie tells dude his phones ringing and asks him where hes going, dude thanks him and tells him he is going home.

Where is Fawn Knutsons family farm?

Next one: the doctor that gives the dude his physical plays recurring part as a limo/cab driver on what CBS sitcom?

OK, that was kinda tough. On the CBS sitcom, How I Met Your Mother the cab driver/limo driver is the same actor that plays the Dudes physical doctor.

This one is easier-

Heres a snippet from Wikipedia...

A shomer Shabbat or shomer Shabbos (plural shomré Shabbat or shomrei Shabbos; Hebrew: שומר שבת‎) is a person who observes the mitzvot (commandments) associated with Judaism's Shabbat ("Sabbath", dusk on Friday until sunset, Saturday.)

In particular, under Jewish law (halakhah), the person who is Shomer Shabbat is expected to conform to the prohibitions against certain forms of melacha - creative acts. The observant Jew does not cook, spend money, write, operate electrical devices, or do other activities prohibited on Shabbat. In addition, a variety of positive Sabbath commandments are expected to be fulfilled, such as Sabbath meals, rituals, prayers, kindness, benignity and rest.

In contemporary Orthodox Judaism, the shomer Shabbat would typically strive to follow all the rules associated with the Sabbath. Within the liberal movements of Judaism, the phrase may signify a person who takes seriously the observance of the core mitzvot.

Good question...

Dark, you didn't ask a question!!

I will- when Dude picks Walter up, it is in front of his business. Later in the movie, Walter picks Dude up in his van and his business is on the side of the van.

What does Walter do for a living?

[Harmonica Bear]

Security company? or something like that I think. The initials are "SS"
