I haven't seen Withnail and I.
People look at me like I've shit on their nan when I tell them that. I don't drink tea or coffee like it's going out of fashion. That makes me weird. I used to be a vegetarian and I'd never eaten meat, fish or eggs until the age of 28.

I wish I hadn't.
Bar a couple of scenes it's shit. And not 'good shit' like Jackie Chan films, 'shit shit'. Awful student 'ooh look they get pissed and take some drugs' bollocks.

This is what I'm afraid of.
My good mate bought it the other day and I told him I hadn't seen it. He and his missus both looked at me like I'd shit on their respective grandmothers and insisted I watched it. That kind of fanatical dedication freaks me out because if I think it's shit I won't able to break their porcelain dreams of sharing something awesome with me.

I don't know your friends, obviously,
but I will happily wager £100 internet pounds (the only kind I have available to me) that were you to watch it with them, one or more of the following would happen:
1) they will 'say the lines' either just before or after they appear, and guffaw heartily
2) they'll keep checking on you after each 'classic scene' to make sure you are in full appreciation of its 'genius'
3) you will end up hating your friends' guts

Number 1, unlikely, these guys are wonderful people.
2, quite possibly. 3, no chance, as above.

My brother saw The Matrix long after everyone else on "video"
and said that the people he watched it with ruined it by constantly telling him what was about to happen or going, "ooh there's a good bit coming up".

I was, I confess, one of those people.
