Here’s an interview with John Turturro were he talks about The Big Lebowski and the one project he wants to do, The Big Lebowski 2.  He even says Joel and Ethan have discussed the possibility.  This is probably the only Coen Brothers movie that ever gets sequel rumors.  The likelihood of this happening is still low, but it would be fun to see.  There’s a million possibilities for a sequel but perhaps a prequel is a better idea, I can’t imagine The Dude and Walter without Donny.

A site I’d never heard of www.entertainmentearth.com has a really great selection of Lebowski "toys". It doesn’t end their they’ve got all kinds of pop culture stuff. Pretty cool site. I ordered the Jesus bobble head.
