Seriously, that guy was such a bore... not even the fish dance could save it.

yeh when the narrator said fisherman don't talk much i was loving it. also when the narrator claimed it was john' best show.

The part were the narrator exclaims "Tacho has transformed himself!" had me in stitches.

I'll agree that Dillon's segment was the most dull. When John would ask him a question all he could say was "Maybe" or "I'm not sure"...Jarmusch was hilarious.."Why am I here?" cracked me up everytime..

When the narrator told us out of the blue that legend had it Tacho transformed himself into a white bird, I was laughing hysterically. Unfortunately the fish dance was really lame, and the ending kinda lame too.

Did it suck? No. Was it the weakest of the 6? Probably.

To me, it seemed like they were aware that the footage they shot was a little lame and they tried to make up for it with the narration.

Man this is an old thread.

I actually thought it was the funniest one because of all the awkward silences between John and Matt who just didn't have much of anything to say to each other. Matt seemed pretty remorseful that he agreed to do it, classic.
