Another one of those movies I try to show to people who haven't seen it. Great college movie.

PLOT:
A high school senior comes to visit Port Chester (aka Politically Correct U) for the weekend, and the admissions department mistakenly sets him up to stay with Droz (Jeremy Piven), a seven year student and party-animal who lives in The Pit, the most offensive house on campus. After trying to pawn the pre-freshman off on his housemate (Jon Favreau), Droz sets off on his normal daily activities including disrupting a political protest by throwing meat at a group of vegan protesters. The President of the University then receives a number of complaints, and with the help of her lackey (superbly portrayed by David Spade), she may finally have the power to kick Droz's house off campus. But the Pit throws an all-campus rager where George Clinton and the Parliament Funkadelic performs, and everything might turn out alright if the various political groups can forget their protests for one night and just have fun together.

Everybody always slams it by saying "It's no Animal House". Big deal - what is? Still a damn funny movie and the incredibly underrated Jeremy Piven gives his best performance here.

You know, I have the DVD, but I don't believe I've ever seen the movie all the way through. Weird.

That doesn't seem weird to me :D


Aren't we getting pretty desperate for movies if PCU is one of our movie-a-days???

:D

Boo, hiss...you're bad mouthing the movie on it's own thread? Don't be that guy!!!

Actually, you've gotta love the whole, 'It's the bird show, it's the bird show! It's the impromptu bird show!' dance moment.

Any movie with Jon Favreau is awesome by default.

Even DAREDEVIL??
Batman Forever?
Deep Impact?
Very Bad Things?

:confused:

Yes, yes, yes and yes :D

I didn't know he was in Forever and Deep Impact, I'll have to watch those again.

And I thought Deep Impact was a pretty decent movie.

I thought it was a porno. Once again my hopes are dashed.
