Animal House
Animal House
SLACKERS with Pete from Pete & Pete and Jason Schwartzman
But that's just off the top of my head. I'll probably think of a better one.
Revenge of The Nerds
Animal House and Revenge of the Nerds
Do favorite high school movie next!
Animal House FTW
Animal House. Everything else is a distant second. It set the standard.
ZERO...POINT....ZERO.
Animal House with Back To School second.
Obviously Animal House is the classic.
But Dead Man on Campus and PCU get honorable mentions.
Sister Dearest
Is it just me, or are there not many good college movies out there? Other than the 2-3 movies already mentioned, most college movies are raunchy, stupid messes. And not even the good kind. Whereas there are dozens of well-written, timeless high school movies.
PCU
Old School
St Elmos Fire!
The one where they all die.
"They hate it when you do this."
St Elmo’s Fire/old school
Legally Blonde :)
Real Genius.
Revenge of the Nerds 2
Animal House FTW
Sure Thing
Soul Man starring C. Thomas Howell
Lmfao
Back to School (Kurt Vonnegut getting a bad mark for his book report on his own book - C'Mon!)
Savage Steve Holland's 'How I Got Into College'
Brilliant film
I keep DVD copies on hand to give away to friends whose kids are applying to school so they can keep some healthy perspective on the whole process.
Animal House with an honorable mention to PCU.
Def Animal House and Back to School
The ol' triple Lindy....
"Mellon! We need you! Get down here!"
This should been written "Favorite college based movie that isn't Animal House"
I will throw in Good Will Hunting for something different. I suppose Enty was looking for some Rudy or Wonder Boys too
Old School and Legally Blond. Both with Luke Wilson in it.
School Daze
Obviously Animal House is the best
Followed by Revenge of the Nerds, Old School, Legally Blonde and Accepted.
Animal House. But, to be fair, I haven't seen most of the others.
Aside from the already mentioned obvious answer
The Rules of Attraction.
Great movie.
Didn't we all go through a Bret Easton Ellis phase?
Where's CNN anchor? Is she alright, someone stalking her?
I second The Rules of Attraction - my 2nd favorite BEE book (after Glamorama).
Animal House, Back To School, loved RDJ in it, and Real Genius.
Just to break things up a bit, The Sure Thing. Daphne DiZunga and John Cusak before be got all "John Cusak-y".
Ah, Wonder Boys! That's a good one!
Road Trip.
Other than Animal House and others listed above
Whiplash
Pitch Perfect
Oldest son chiming in with The Waterboy (Sandler used to be funny)
@Florin is clearly a person of taste and distinction: Real Genius. "Why is that toy on your head?" "Because if I wear it anywhere else, it chafes."
Revenge of the Nerds
Harold and Kumar
Back to School, with The Paper Chase a close second.
Harold and Kumar and Animal House
Real Genius
Rudy
Defying gravity it's a gay college romance and about being true to yourself.
Animal house of course was what I was weaned on in my generation but I think it promulgated some unhealthy attitudes toward sexualltiy and partying. I always wanted to bring home a high school girl in a shopping cart.
PCU is second but was ruined by Piven, thanks bud. Anyway the best part about that movie was the guy doing his thesis on television commercials. I always wanted to break down each commercial and identify the psychological conditioning and persuasion techniques used in advertising as a term paper.
The other best part of that movie (at the time) was when the movie highlighted P-Funk, reminds me of the time I gave George Clinton one of my nugs on stage and on camera and he smiled at how dank it was and put it in his dashiki, thanked me and continued singing.
The phone conversation with Rodney was even better.
“Hey Vonnegut, how do you get a D writing a paper about yourself? Fuck me? Fuck you Vonnegut!”
I loved back to school!!
I laughed pretty hard at dirty grandpa but thats a spring break movie not college
The road within. Zoe Kravitz is brilliant in it.
Up The Academy. It's a military school, but still...
Back to School.
Can you blow me where the Pampers is?
Real Genius. It's a moral imperative.
I remember you said you grew up with him... I like him a lot too(legally blind was on today strangely) and while not my fave—/I actually thought to myself how much I like seeing LW onscreen
And Owen of course... he’s so good at what he does-a niche but he owns it
Animal House
The original "Where the Boys Are."
Real Genius. I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, when he said, "I drank what?"
Real Genius
Animal House - Epic, just epic
Where the Boys Are...1964
Back to School Rodney Dangerfield...
Revenge of the Nerds
Love Story...yes I know. But Hell, it's Ryan O'Neal and Ali McGraw...
Where’s Candy Crowley and her daily dad joke?
Animal House
Real Genius! Brilliant soundtrack.
School Daze and Higher Learning just to add some diversity, lol.
Animal House of course is number 1. Van Wilder was funny too, mmmmm young Ryan Reynolds.
Spring Breakers
St. Elmo's Fire! (and anything with LW is an honorary mention)
Old School!
