Aw how cute. I didn’t even know he was married! I absolutely love Jon Heder and wish him and his wife all the best.

I love Neoplolian Dynamite! His wife is very cute. Congrats to them on the new baby. She looks like she is about 4-5 months in that picture to me.

It’d be kind of funny to be a woman with the Napoleon voice, especially during labor.
“Can you bring me my epidural?”
“Why?”
“Cause my uterus hurts…real bad…”

Heh, heh. You guys stole all the potential Napolean-esque jokes. I guess all I can say is congrats Jon and Kirsten!

I adored that movie…it was supposed to be silly and goofy (it was pure genius) and there were so many funny sayings born from it. I think Jon Heder is adorable and I’m sure he and his wife are so happy that they have a little dynamite on the way!
Pam, that quip was hysterical! Yeah, all the good quotes have already been used…so I’ll just say, if anyone asked Jon what he and his wife were going to do about starting a family and why didn’t they go ahead and have a baby… I hope he said, “Whatever I feel like I wanna do. Gosh!” and “Maybe I will, GOSH!”

I thought his wife was pregnant during the taping of Napoleon Dynamite. This should be the second child. Does anyone else remember that?
- Lisa on
LOL omg you guys I am reading these comments and it’s just so funny how we all know and remember these quotes! This movie was something I thought would be stupid (well yeah in a way it was) but its one of my favorites! Whenever I’m bummed I put it on and I swear I laugh more each time!
off topic but go rent Benchwarmers with him and David Spade, he acts just like his Napolean character in that as well. It was hilarious!!
- joy on
Bahahahahbahaha that’s hilarious Pam!!!! I didn’t like this movie when I first saw it BUT after I watched it again, I loved it!! I am now a proud owner of the Special Edition DVD, Talking Doll and keychain!!! Swwwwweeeeeeeetttt!
