^ This.
I had a goaty beard when Lebowski came out, and got called the dude quite a bit. Which doesn't say much for my dress sense.

It's The Dude man!
That, or Duder. His Dudeness. Or El Duderino if, you know, you're not into the whole brevity thing...

I genuinely do like them equally. Lebowski is obviously a much more intelligent and well written comedy but the slapstick in Kingpin had me crying with laughter. For instance:
(While attempting to con the bowling alley bartender)
Ishmael: Okay, you want to bowl for some big money, eh? But I'll lose my entire bonus check because I'm so bombed.
Bartender: You get that way from ginger ale?
Roy: Nah, he was sniffing glue in the parking lot.

Scruffy looking? Who's scruffy looking...?

Does anyone know the details of a song on the soundtrack which goes something like:
I just popped in to see what condition my condition was in.

yes.
Yes, it's by Kenny Rogers and the First Edition, and the title (I think) is Just Dropped In.
I think it's great.
Now there is a quoteable film.

Lebowski is way cooler and infinitely better all round. That said, Kingpin is very funny in places. Sawing the horses feet off, the glorious combovers and the shot of Munson, through the gap in his landlady's legs, puking in the toilet are all laugh out loud funny.
The two aren't worthy of comparison though. The only thing they have in common is bowling. Which is shit.

Big Lebowski - one of the finest crafted films ever made, with career high performances from some of film's best actors.
Kngpin - A badly directed, badly written, unfunny pile of shite with some career low performances from some otherwise good actors.

I suppose the OP compared them because of subject matter, but really, they shouldn't be compared because The Big Lebowski is a top end movie. It's brimming with effort and, ultimately, that effort came to fruition.
Kingpin, on the otherhand, is simply third-rate crap. It might be a little bit funny in places but no different from any other third-rate crap out there - more or less just solely to make some money. It's hardly comparable to a virtual comic masterpiece.
