I Rate This Film 0.0

Friday night, my family sat down together and watched Animal House . . . first time for my kids (they are 13 and 14 years old) and I haven't seen John Belushi imitate a zit since 1991, when I watched the film in it's entirety several dozen times in one summer (we were living in a shithole in Nags Head, I disconnected the cable, and the only movies we had on VHS were Animal House and Spinal Tap . . . so most nights we alternated, although we occasionally watched both in the same evening) and I'm happy to say the comedy really holds up (my son Alex had a three word review: "That was awesome!") but there are more gratuitous boobs than I remembered . . . I guess there was no internet porn back then so people had to get their gratuitous boobs in R rated movies.

    I hung out with a lot of gratuitous boobs in college. Some egregious bozos too.

    'i disconnected the cable'. like it was some unilateral decision rather than a bunch of morons not being able to pay the bill and deciding it'd be better to watch two movies and a bunch of old music videos, drink too much, chase the gorgeous redheaded waitress, and dare each other to run naked to the street after losing jeopardy.

    i mean, it was better, but that doesn't mean you disconnected the cable.

    i happened to be home when the cable people came by to inquire about continuing the service and i told them we didn't need it. you were especially put out by this because you couldn't watch baseball. the rest is true. i forgot about the jeopardy thing . . .
