Dude, Where's My Car? is a 2000 American stoner comedy film directed by Danny Leiner. The film stars Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott as two young men who find themselves unable to remember where they parked their vehicle after a night of recklessness. 

Though the film was criticized by most critics, it was a box office success and has managed to achieve a cult status, partially from frequent airings on cable television. The film’s title became a minor catch phrase and was commonly reworked in various pop cultural contexts during the 2000s.

As the first DVD I ever purchased, I still considered this an amazing comedy. Pure frivolity, it lends itself to humorous quotes and not easily forgotten characters. This film is definitely one of my “special treats.”
