Animal House - 1978
"What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!"
This comedy was way ahead of it's time. A crude comedy like this is common place now a days. The soundtrack of this movie is aces. It also produces many iconic scenes that bleed over into real life. Toga parties became common place at colleges. Made food fights cool. And set the pace for all fraternity houses for the next decade. Always a soft spot for this film for me because it still resonates today but it will always be towards the end of my countdown.
Director - John Landis
Best Performance - John Belushi as John "Bluto" Blutarsky
Rotten Tomatoes Score - 92%
Factoid - John Belushi's performance in the cafeteria scene was entirely improvised. When he began piling food on his tray, Director John Landis urged the camera operator to "stay with him". The infamous "I'm a zit" gag was also improvised, and the reaction from the cast is completely genuine.
Factoid #2 - This is Kevin Beacon's first role in a movie.
Stock In Countdown - Neutral
Memorable Scene
lol they always use to play this scene at Orlando Magic games in the 90s when my dad would take me and they were losing big going into the 4th. Use to crack me up even at a young age. P.S. Damn you Shaq for leaving.
