When I was growing up, my schoolmate Dave Kelly had this movie on tape. VCRs had just come out and movies were scarce. He must have watched it like 50 times or something – knew every line. Heck, an actual movie in Chicago? Wow! That’s what was so cool about the thing. This movie is a classic regardless of the city used though – every scene and every line is priceless.

1941
The makers of this movie threw a bunch of “stuff” together and edited it into a movie. This was universally panned by the critics, but I thought it was watchable. The plot? people in LA think that Japan is about to invade the US mainland in the early days of W.W.II. Much mayhem ensues… Steven Spielberg directing John Belushi? You already know that it’s nuts.
Neighbors
Um, about some neighbors, I don’t remember anything… except that I saw it.
National Lampoon’s Animal House
Sure it was funny, maybe even a classic. But I don’t know, it just wasn’t my type of movie for some reason. It’s almost like everyone is pressuring me to like this, and I want to rebel and say it’s lame (even though it kind of isn’t).
