You really need to define them then. They dont fit? They are college films are they not? They dont fit.....you dont want to hear what we have to say. you want to hear what you want to hear. What are you looking for? Someone to agree with you?

Animal House

but where is American Graffiti? Since is takes place just before graduates go into college would that not count?

sfmarine · 09-28-2009, 08:43 PM

Definitely Animal House.

Big-byrd · 10-01-2009, 01:24 AM

What, movies that suck? [Just kidding, Animal House is the obvious choice, since it's the only one there that doesn't. Real Genius is pretty good too.]

ZedsDead · 09-28-2009, 09:37 PM

Animal House is an icon. Good Will Hunting is a superior movie imo, but I'm not sure if it qualifies as a college movie.

PCU is also way underrated.

haha agreed, all but a few of the movies on the list are absolutely terrible, but I think that has more to do with unoriginality and trying to be like Animal House than anything else. It is just a genre that is riddled with cliches and unorginality. At the same time, it is a popular genre and you certainly can't fault Czar with creating the poll, despite the several obvious omissions.

naturephoto1 · 09-28-2009, 10:45 PM

My choice would be Animal House. What a cast and funny film.

Really I like 11 of the 16 I listed!! That aint a bad ratio!! Ofcourse the highschool list is much better but still!! Got Em!!

Iron-Blu-123 · 09-28-2009, 11:28 PM

+1 Animal House

Hep · 09-28-2009, 11:49 PM

No mention of Fandango? It's been a lifetime since seeing this one, but I have fond memories of it; more so then most of those listed.

Elvis · 09-29-2009, 12:06 AM

Fandango happens after college.....so I don't think he will count that.

+1
Animal House is the best in my opinion. First, because it practically invented the genre, but also because there isn't an unfunny sequence in the whole movie. Also, stupid as this sounds, it's smarter than most of the rest. That's why Real Genious would be my #2, because it isn't all about ****ing in beers and farting.

Elvis · 09-30-2009, 07:22 PM

Sadly not one of the films on this list stands the test of time. The once great Animal House and Back to School are no longer funny to me. The same can be said about most comedies though that are over 10 years old.
