I only saw it a few months back, it was a John Belushi double bill, that and the blues brothers, classics IMO

Two of, if not THE TWO favourtite films of mine of all time. Certainly were when I was a kid. Watched them many many times.

Still love the scene when the dead horse is being measured for taking out of the Dean's office in NLAH, and the scene with the penguin Nun in BB.

Classic films both!

Another one from that era in a similar genre, Porkys! It was on the other night, what a load of tosh. I thought it was really funny when it first came out.

This thread needs to be on Double Secret Probation. Some great quotes and a film often imitatedm, but never bettered

"They took the bar! The whole fcensoredg bar!"
"Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! "

Otter: Point of parliamentary procedure!
Hoover: Don't screw around, they're serious this time!
Otter: Take it easy, I'm pre-law.
Boon: I thought you were pre-med.
Otter: What's the difference?
Otter: Ladies and gentlemen, I'll be brief. The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules, or took a few liberties with our female party guests - we did. [winks at Dean Wormer] But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few, sick twisted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg - isn't this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but I for one am not going to stand here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America. Gentlemen!

One of the finest movies ever made.

ETA and the scene in Porkys where they're describing getting in a police sketch artist to ID the "taddywacker" is hilarous!

Anyone remember Kentucky Fried Movie? Similar vintage to the others. They all seemed so edgy back then.

Dean Wormer's words have often rung in my ears...
