> **[The Greatest Film of All Time' 'Nobody Fs With Da Jesus!' The Feature!!!'''](http://legacy.aintitcool.com/node/13781)** > > Harry here with possibly the greatest news since the impeachment of George Bush Jr oh that hasn't happened, ok, so this is just plainly the best news ever! JESUS, THE SECOND COMING!!! This would be the first sequel in history to a Coen... Ain’t it cool’s reporting that the Coen brothers and John Turturro are exploring ideas for a possible movie focusing on his character, Jesus Quintana. My reaction: I don’t know if Jesus holds up as a real character. I love them as simpsons-style small characters, but I don’t know if I’d want an entire movie about Jesus or Maude or the Big Lebowski, ya know? Of course, I’ll go to see it, if it happens. Duh. ---

Although I loved the Big Lebowski, I’m not quite sure how a comedy about a child molester could work. ---

“You might fool the fucks at the league office, but you don’t fool Jesus. So instead of fucking you in the ass Saturday afternoon, I will fuck you in the ass Tuesday night!” … or however that went. Sorry, you just triggered a movie memory and I had to let it out. “eight-year-olds, Dude” ---

What is this bullshit, man? I don’t fucking care! It don’t matter to Jesus! But you’re not fooling me! You might fool the fucks in the league office, but you don’t fool Jesus! It’s bush league psych-out stuff! Laughable, man! I would’ve fucked you in the ass Saturday, I’ll fuck you in the ass next Wednesday instead! No doubt, this was a totally unique and extremely funny side character, but I’m not sure how well he would work as a lead. I would love to see a Lebowski sequel, with all the same characters, but perhaps with more of a focus on the Jesus than on the Dude. (This thing would HAVE to have Jeff bridges and John Goodman in it or it wouldn’t work at all.) The Cohen brothers have never made a bad movie yet, and Lebowski had a great little universe of characters. I really hope they revisit it. ---

I would pay in excess of three figures to see another Coen Bros. movie about the Dude. For Jesus, I pay regular admission. ---

You know, we really only have Walter’s word for it that the Jesus is a pederast. Walter is not exactly the most reliable source of information in the the world. Also Jesus is constantly telling people that he’s going to “fuck them in the ass.” Imagine Jesus getting into an altercation with some kid at some point in his past, probably at the bowling alley, and having the situation misconstrued by witnesses. Jesus doesn’t necessarily have to be a pervert. ---

Good point. Heh, I’m laughing just thinking about Jesus yelling at a kid in the bowling alley that he’s going to fuck them in the ass. I will trample other people to see a Lebowski sequel. ---

This post makes me want to watch it again. So many memories so many good times. But this is well like my oppinion, man. This new one though, it should be like a prequel that leads to the game against the Dude maybe even the same scene as in TBL with a different twist. ---

The best is when Lebowski was on TV and a certain line was changed to… “This is what happens when you meet a stranger in the grass.” My thoughts exactly. ---

I have to say that the big lebowski is one of my favorite moveis. however, a sequel is not so cool. it’s hard for me to imagine the coen bors making a bad movie, but the original is amazing and pefect and why go there again? let’s see who else the coen brothers can make movies about. “maybe on you, jackie” oh- mad props to the “eight year-olds, dude.” fan club. one of the best moments of the movie ---

While we do only have Walter’s word on Jesus’ predilections, there is a supporting cutscene which seems to indicate that it’s true. It just makes the character all the better. Off the lanes, he’s a desperate pathetic individual, while on the lanes he’s suave and fearless. ---

Why do I picture this sequel having a twenty minute scene of Jesus licking his bowling ball? Seriously tho, this sequel could either completely rock…or totally suck. There’s no middleground here. But I would pay exhorbitant amounts to see the Dude again. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/lebowski-sequel-jesus-second-coming/136469.md?page=2)
