The Fuckin' Eagles

Has anyone found any kind of connection between "Hotel California" playing (en Español) during the Jesus Quintana "pederast" scene at the bowling alley, then later in the movie, The Dude claims he "hates the fuckin' Eagles" while in the cab?

More of a figurative reference

There are about 100 callbacks in the film and that's one of them. The scissor painting at Maude's, George Bush, Lapin/Bunny, etc... There is a literal connection.

Compared to Creedance, the Eagles might as well as be Kidz Bop. That's the whole connection. He hates the Eagles because they're pop rock slop that resulted as a reaction to the progressive and psychedelic rock of the early to mid 70s.

Were you not listening to the Dude’s story?

Well played. I would reply with The Dude’s response but I’m sure that the Maudes would delete it and send me a message saying that I violated something or other.

SgtPepper_8324@reddit
Yes. The music used when first introducing the bowler Dude, Walter, and Donnie all hate is one of the best known Eagles songs, only it's subliminal because it's the Spanish language version.
Good movie making, and all water under the bridge as I'm concerned.
Onetap1@reddit
The Dude hates the fuckin' Eagles and he hates the Jesus, man. It's an appropriate theme tune for the Hispanic pederast.
Hazardoussynergy@reddit
Makes sense

I always thought it symbolized Dude's underlying dislike of Jesus, even though he respects his game. But you know, there's a lotta ins, lotta outs. Lotta what-have-you's.
Your roll.
Equivalent_Sir_2575@reddit (OP)
Excellent observation! 💯
xxes4eyes@reddit
Both songs are from the Fucking Eagles but in the cab ride he's had a rough night and just can't tolerate the fucking Eagles right in that moment....hasn't that occurred to you, man? Sir?
Catalina_Eddie@reddit
OP's like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie and wants to know...
ArtichokeDouble7042@reddit
There's a lot of ins and outs.
