Donate to The Hunger Project here: thp.org/events/cyber-dynamite But wait - there's more! Some of the Napoleon Dynamite cast have donated special one-of-a-kind items that will be raffled off to a few lucky donors to The Hunger Project in the first 30 days after the reunion's debut on December 4, 2020. Go to the "Cyber Dynamite' event page (see link in reply below) to see the item descriptions courtesy of Napoleon, Pedro, Uncle Rico and LaFawnduh.
It was mentioned that this film was about the characters working towards their dreams. The one scene that shows this the best is the look on Pedro's face right after Napoleon dances and the audience goes wild. The way he smiles and the look on his face is priceless. Then the movie cuts to the different characters, ending with Napoleon and Deb. It was such a good, heartwarming feeling.
One element I never see much mention of, is how Lafawnduh and her tape are such a key 'inciting incident' to the script. From Pedro's presidency, to Deb and Napoleon's reconciliation, to Kip's transformation. So much was set in motion, when she stepped off the bus.
I had the Vote for Pedro t-shirt, Im from Costa Rica, found it on a thrift shop, Funny I did not know at the time is was from a movie, I just liked the made. lol
When I watched this in 05, at age 23, I related to napolean, now that I'm 39 I'm 100% behind uncle rico. This movie is still rewatchable and has aged like fine wine, especially for a post 9/11 film. Wish all movies were like that but not the case at all.
@@creatorzp Being old is great bc your music playlists get so big you can put it on shuffle and then say, "Aww sh*t this used to be my jam!", every 5 minutes until basically forever.
Forever Young I Want To Be Forever Young and continue watching this movie forever... This movie crossed many barriers and charmed many hearts. It has something inexplicable but magical. Greetings from Chile and thank you very much.
I feel like a reunion in the movie would be awesome. Like the movie Stephen Kings It like how after growing apart they meet again and they go on an adventure or something in Preston changes or a huge event or something
This reunion was just sooo sweet. I'm stoked they bonded so much... that they're still friends!! Cudos! That's what time before cellphones brings you.. personal experiences.
Watched NAPOLEAN DYNOMITE again last night. It, like Christmas Story, is a 'must' in my yearly diaries. Thanks for a great, fun, story, where cussing is not missed. Your film is in my Top 10, with Harry Potter, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings,Blade Runner, Gummo, Kubriks catalogue, Christmas Story, Sideways, and THE FOUR HANDED PART ( my 10 minute film ).
The hubs and I just rewatched Napoleon for probably the hundredth time tonight. It's one of our favorite movies and we still quote it to this day. I love seeing you guys all together again, and will be keeping an eye out for that sequel!
My family and I are fans of Napoleon, absolutely going to love seeing this. Shout-out to the cast, helping out for such a great cause in the midst of a global pandemic. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays Uncle Rico, Summer, Pedro, Lafawnduh, Kip, Napoleon, and Deb!! Please stay safe!
In Napoleon 2, Uncle Rico is changing a tire on his van on the side of the road in Preston, ID. A DeLorean drives through town and decides to pull over and help him change the tire. The jack broke so they both hop in the DeLorean to buy a new one in town. During the drive, Uncle Rico tells the stranger about his football career in '82. The stranger reveals that they're riding in a time machine and asks Uncle Rico if he wants to go back to '82. The rest is history. ❤
I love the film because I was living close by in Unity Oregon, when it came out. We could really relate as highschool kids going to a school with 74 students k-12, including 10 exchange students.
Yo for the sequel that was rumored it is cannon Napoleon went on to own a huge farm with deb because he was so good with the ffa future farmers of America! And Jon gries uncle Rico is in another show called Dream Corp LLC and that could be the story. A 20 year Reunion at Preston high and uncle Rico gets rich Napoleon involved in a crazy adventure with the whole gang!
What blew me away is that Rex's wife was actually a woman... I thought she was some kinda drag queen for sure.. But: "Carmen Brady played Rex's wife, Starla She is now a certified personal trainer and master bodybuilding champion" sorry, my bad !
I really learned a lot who the people are behind one of my favorite movies of all time thanks to this and I am very pleased. Such a great cast of people.
I love seeing everyone back and being so enthusiastic and loving towards the project and the participants! Thank you for making my childhood that much more legendary!
Absolutely loved watching this, one of my favourite films of all time. I'll be watching it with my 11 ye old son this weekend. What a lovely bunch of people. So glad that you all still keep in touch.
I Love these ppl.. 🧡 ..really missed not having "Kip" with them. Hope you are all well. I think this is almost as good as a sequel, maybe better, in some ways..
Man, the ideas for Characters future are great. ..and it didn't take long for their chemistry to become obvious. They should have a reunion, even if nobody films it. 🧡
Two scenes that make me cry EVERYTIME: 1. Trisha abandons Napoleon at the dance and hangs out with Summer and Don instead. 2. Napoleon tells Pedro with sincerity and conviction, "I'd vote for you."
Some say, love, it is a river, that drowns the tender reed. Some say, love, it is a razor, ... (now it's in your head too!) I Love seeing them together. Missed Kipp though. We can still have Napoleon 2. Do it!!!
Let's not grasp at straws trying to define it the movie is simple not complex it can be watched over and over because it's a great movie would be great even in black n white
Yes Please on the reunion movie and very much need movie in these times Just Another Day with Napoleon Dynamite would be amazing ...This is one of those things that has to happen
At the heart of The Hunger Project is the idea that people are extraordinary. The essence of ending hunger is in lifting up and celebrating human dignity. We must not treat people living in conditions of hunger as beneficiaries, which can crush dignity, but rather as the key resource for ending hunger. We will not succeed by being a group of extraordinary individuals; we will make it through being an extraordinary community, working in partnership with each other around the world. The Stratford Production Team and the Napoleon Dynamite Cast have demonstrated the extraordinary power of a committed community working in partnership to end hunger and poverty once and for all. It has been a pleasure to partner with them and we are thrilled for this exciting event to go live. Every investment made before, during or after this event will go to building self-reliance at the grassroots level, empowering women as key change agents, and forging effective partnerships with local governments.

Aaron was a big part of this film, it just felt weird with him not being present, whatever his reason for not finding 1 hour, and a computer to be part of this, I hope he's doing well.
I just watched a video of the film locations. The locker is in the hallway of the High school. Its a real locker. How cool would it be to have had his locker!

Ja-HEEEEZ!

6 dollars, that's like a dollar an hour
That extract thing happened to me as a kid. I did the snow plowing for a construction site and the foreman gave me 4 dollars LOL

If coach would've put me in, we would've taken state!
No doubt in my mind

Forever Young I Want To Be Forever Young and continue watching this movie forever... This movie crossed many barriers and charmed many hearts. It has something inexplicable but magical. Greetings from Chile and thank you very much.
(new idea for a sequel) Napoleon Dynamite: 20 Year High School Reunion
Pedro in politics
Deb a successful photographer
Napoleon, still Napoleon
I feel like a reunion in the movie would be awesome. Like the movie Stephen Kings It like how after growing apart they meet again and they go on an adventure or something in Preston changes or a huge event or something
So beyond awesome. My 31 yo special needs daughter plays it over and over. So precious!!
Uncle Rico is still living in 82
I like how Efren Ramirez aka, "Pedro" Is donating to the Hunger Project by feeding himself during the Special Reuinion
Seeing these guys aging makes me sad and reminds me of how long ago the early 2000s was.
🎶Forever young...I want to be forever young...🎶
This reunion was just sooo sweet. I'm stoked they bonded so much... that they're still friends!! Cudos! That's what time before cellphones brings you.. personal experiences.
Uncle Rico finally build the time machine. But he messes up instead of 82 he lands into the future 2021

There simply can’t be a second....there’s no way to do what they did in a better way.
You can’t go home again
Let’s do it
I just watched the movie with my 10 year old. He loved it. So happy to see you all together like this. ❤️
The hubs and I just rewatched Napoleon for probably the hundredth time tonight. It's one of our favorite movies and we still quote it to this day. I love seeing you guys all together again, and will be keeping an eye out for that sequel!

Wow…
how awesome is the Napoleon 🧨 cast ♥️
Best movie ever!! One of my favorites and always will be
My favorite movie! The soundtrack is awesome!! Would love to see a flippin' sequel!
Perhaps a future movie could be introduced by scripting everyone coming together to attend a funeral of a colleague

Efren is so handsome. Summer’s a lucky girl to have five kids with Pedro 😉
Yess!!! He was in Narcos and daamn that man is so fine
this is awesome

I Love these ppl.. 🧡 ..really missed not having "Kip" with them. Hope you are all well. I think this is almost as good as a sequel, maybe better, in some ways..
This was absolutely amazing thanks you for bringing everyone back together. Wish more people donated and seen this!!
Obviously, Napoleon’s two children are boys named Napoleon Jr. and Bonaparte.
LOL 😆
One of them should be Napoleon Cake.
This is like, the best thing ever,
GOSH!
And for such a worthy cause.

Like you could even know that napoleon.
Man, the ideas for Characters future are great. ..and it didn't take long for their chemistry to become obvious. They should have a reunion, even if nobody films it. 🧡
This is great. I love seeing all the cast getting together. Matilda had a reunion as well.

2. Napoleon tells Pedro with sincerity and conviction, "I'd vote for you."
GREAT MOVIE , AWESOME CAST!!!
Yesss...LOL..Kay-Sa-Dilla!!!
Dude I always thought napoleon dynamite was really napoleon dynamite in real life!! Haha
In the next Hollywood film with a time machine (Back to the Future, Austin Powers), Uncle Rico goes back to '82 to win the state championship. ❤
Some say, love, it is a river, that drowns the tender reed. Some say, love, it is a razor, ... (now it's in your head too!) I Love seeing them together. Missed Kipp though. We can still have Napoleon 2. Do it!!!
Did you watch to the end...?
Absolutely love this movie! ❤❤❤
Deb turned out to be hotter than summer. Love how that happens.
Love you all ❤ soooo much you don't even know! And this reunion vid is one of the best of its kind! Xoxo all!
I voted for Pedro.
And now you have guaranteed protection service.
This Napolean Dynamite gathering and the cast of Jesus Christ Superstar (the 1973 movie) are my fave virtual reunions so far 🥰
Let's not grasp at straws trying to define it the movie is simple not complex it can be watched over and over because it's a great movie would be great even in black n white
I really want a superduper deluxe special 3 disc bluray edition!
Awesome 😎
Dale is awesome!
Have you heard about his accident from before the movie? He’s one tough man.
Missed Kipp in this reunion. He was excellent in the movie.
Watch to the end
Best movie ever!
Love this movie
Yes Please on the reunion movie and very much need movie in these times Just Another Day with Napoleon Dynamite would be amazing ...This is one of those things that has to happen
How is it that Uncle Rico now looks like Alan Ruck....Cameron from Ferris Bueller, lol
He looks like Matthew Lillard to me.
Napoleon Dynamite II will be awesome, IMO. I think they are pitching some ideas unknowingly for part II.
I don't know about that. First one is great.

Uncle Rico likes The Beatles. Gosh!
Dale is such a funny guy.
Clearwater chad approves of this movie. Clearwater CHAD is the biggest Star in Clearwater Florida.
They should make another movie, they were coming up with good ideas, make it a indie movie written by the actors
Correct me if I’m wrong but did they all confirm a sequel is being planned?
No official sequel. We can all dream.
Need to go fund me this!
Wonderfull
I wonder why Kip didn't take part in this.
Did you ever find out bro?
@@Bromocriptine777 NOPE.
Aaron was a big part of this film, it just felt weird with him not being present, whatever his reason for not finding 1 hour, and a computer to be part of this, I hope he's doing well.
Watch to the end
How could this film not be popular? the only thing more powerful would be Atilla Atombomb!
It's like they are all 5 and like "and pretend we have 3 kids, and pretend we own 2000 dollars and 2 houses"
I know the guy who owns Uncle Rico's van.... LOL
"Where's your locker?"
I just watched a video of the film locations. The locker is in the hallway of the High school. Its a real locker. How cool would it be to have had his locker!
Only 55 of us!???
I LOVE Haylie Duff! She was so underrated in this…SHE IS THE BEST! Sooooo beautiful.
Awesome
Please share the link to this reunion with your friends and don't forget about checking out all the goodies on auction at The Hunger Project!
What's the song playing at 24:46?
We were able to get some unused music tracks from the composer of the film to use on this.
@@StratfordProductionsInc do you have the name of it? Very catchy.
The movie is so funny.
Deb is smoking hot in her 30's. Yum!
FYI for future posts.... “yum” is disgusting.
