"What? Over? Did you say "Over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!" - Bluto Blutarsky

Why watch this? This film was THE FILM for me and all my McMurry College frat brothers. We could not get enough of it.

Dad's Preview: Irreverent, absolutely. Tasteless, yep. Gratuitous, oh yea. It is also one of the funniest films ever made. Landis wanted to capture the wanton fraternity life that raged on college campuses during the 1960's, and he used SNL's bright young comic, John Belushi, to accomplish that feat. It is one uproarious scene after another, building to an unforgettable climax that leaves Dean Wormer and Faber College wounded forever.
