65. "Rongo I remember your angst towards Old School"
In response to In response to 63

          

and while Animal House is obviously a better movie and Old School wouldn't exist w/o it, I find the latter just as *laugh out loud* funny

and more quotable, of course

btw -- where does it really go dull?

* Juliette Lewis in the perfect opener
* drunk wedding / Total Fucking Eclipse of the Heart
* Mitchapalooza
* Fight Club-influenced frat training
* Birthday party
* random Jeremy Piven scattered throughout
* obvious cheesy ending

the drunk college nostalgia with Old School is POWERFUL

Aug 05th 2008

Aug 04th 2008
46
comedy is the most difficult to have a consensus on
Aug 04th 2008
50
Yeah, my bad on not participating. I'm mad these didn't make the top 100
Aug 04th 2008
49

Aug 14th 2008

98
Another way to provide feedback or critique the list
Aug 12th 2008
95
My re-arranged top 50
Aug 12th 2008
96
rearranging the top 100 would look too much like my own list
Aug 12th 2008
