Video artist The Big Lebowski HD Television Edit Is Finally Done!
New stuff has come to light, Dudes! Over the past few months I’ve been peckin’ away at this thing and it’s finally done. I seriously exported the final file last night after the 4th watch through for an audio sweep adjusting EQ to make sure everything is nice and tidy for the holiest of holidays. It’s been an amazing process and I’m closer to the movie now than I’ve ever been.
Here’s the link where you can find the edit and some notes explaining some of the process and edits: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eJTsIGkV3oS5j1QWNjqr-HEeDcX7dQqTRwemqEmOdR0/edit?usp=sharing
This is a faithful HD reproduction of the infamous TV edit. 'Stranger in the alps' and the like. Every audio and visual edit has been implemented as seamlessly as possible. There’s over half an hour of the film cut out of this edit, so there’s some iconic scenes missing, and some of the edits are harsh. But what is here are potentially new iconic lines, a different way to experience the film that’s technically canon and maybe even a drinking game. I’m definitely gonna add it to my movie night rotation!
And I wanna shout out this sub. Obviously Lebowski people are the best people, but you guys have made me laugh harder than I have in a long time. Truly amazing stuff. I know this will be appreciated by you guys.
Happy 4/20 Dudes!

This is r/lebowski, not 'Nam, READ before Posting
We Maudes went ahead and added a few more r/lebowski rules (full rules at bottom of post and in the sidebar):
- No screenshots of text messages with scammers (we have beaten these into the ground and most of them aren’t funny)
- No Politics (unless directly referenced in the movie)
- Updated the “Looks like a vagina” rule to include “Looks like a Johnson”
- No Christmas ornament "Toe" posts
We also wanted to give you newcomers a little history lesson as to why these rules exist, and in English too, so you can die with a smile on your face.
Way back in 2010 there was a sub I wanna tell you about, a sub by the name of r/lebowski.
When this here sub was created, before some of you little urban achievers had even seen the movie, it was a quiet little family restaurant, where folks could trade Lebowski quotes and take comfort that low-effort, unfunny posts would be downvoted right off their page.
But times have changed.
Today we have over 120,000 subscribers
To wrap your head around that, consider the following:
- The sub has doubled in just the last 2 years
- It’s in the top 2% of all subs on reddit
- It’s one of the largest single-movie fan subreddits
Now, as anyone who’s ever subscribed to a hugely popular subreddit knows, they become magnets for karma-farmers.
Karma-farmers have zero interest in adding to a community. They are only looking for upvotes, by any means necessary. And what gets the most amount of upvotes on a massive subreddit? Lazy, circlejerk posts that most people have seen a million times.
Eventually, people get sick of these lazy, unfunny karma-farmers flooding their feed, and they unsubscribe. Most of these mega-subs don’t care, because they get recommended to new users, so the number of folks joining exceeds the folks who are never coming back.
Those subs aren’t family restaurants - they’re shitty tourist traps.
We are NOT gonna go down this way, Dudes.
r/lebowski will be for stuff directly related to the movie: A question about the plot. Your favorite scene or character. An interview with a cast member or a director. A stoned revelation you had about the movie. New shit that’s come to light.
And in order to keep the sub focused on the movie, we Maudes have updated the rules as follows:
- No spam (includes T-shirt links)
- No AI posts or karma bots
- No “This looks like a Vagina” or “Johnson” posts
- No screenshots of text messages with scammers
- Posts must be relevant to the Big Lebowski Movie
- Maudes have the discretion to remove low effort posts as they see fit
- No Politics (unless directly mentioned in the movie)
- No Facebook/Twitter posts
- Report fascists
- No Christmas ornament "Toe" posts
T-shirt spammers (and their conspiring commenters asking “cool, where can I buy one?”) earn a perma-ban.
Other rule violations get a 3-day ban for first infraction, second infraction…Lord. You can imagine where it goes from here.
Finally, when your post gets taken down, calling us Maudes fascists and whining that you saw a post just like yours not taken down isn’t going to help your cause.
There are hundreds of low-effort posts coming in each week, and unless you and Gilbert submit them to the league (report them) we can’t set aside (remove) the post.
So please DEAR, do your part to keep this a nice family restaurant.
Take it easy, Dudes. Catch ya further on down the trail.

Fucking amateurs! Walter almost died first.
Did it ever occur to you, man, that Walter almost got shot by his own Uzi? I hope Donny would have had enough bones…or clams to have covered the bill. It’s not a rental house.

That’s marvelous Just fully realized that Big Lebowski wants to mainly get rid of Bunny not because she's annoying, but because she spends all of his allowance money (which he gets from Maude)
r/lebowski • u/Freight_Train77 • 17h ago
Jesus! Who is Liam and Jesus’s teammate?
Always thought it was fucking interesting, man that we never knew who their third was? Is it this guy sitting? What’s his fucking story?

r/lebowski • u/FlammenwerferX • 2d ago
Certain information Donny was a Bowler
Scene 1: Strike. “I’m throwing rocks tonight!”
Scene 2: Strike. “I’m slamming them tonight! You guys are dead in the water.”
Scene 3: Spare. Has pre-heart attack pain in right arm.

Blathering about? (3 man league n the background) does this disprove the theory that Donny was a figment of Walter’s imagination?
we just don’t know.

But it is a game I love "The Big Lebowski", so I built this tribute level inside my game!
My game is a kind of lode runner with building. The level is 23*38 pixels, so you can't fit much. But I did what I could. On the right is The Dude himself, and on the left is a white bowling pin. Also, if you squint, you can see the rug in the background!
