Side note: I found this video on Paul Scheer's tumblr. This is pretty ridiculous and at the same time amazing.

Haha, that was fantastic.
I LOST it when it cut to Fozzie Bear at about :07 seconds in. "Shaaaame on you." lol
I appreciated the split second clip of Jean-Claude Van Damme as Guile in 'Street Fighter.' It was an awful movie, but considering the overwhelming popularity of the video game, it really had to be made.
Bad-mouthing Will Ferrell has become popular over the last couple of years (and perhaps rightfully so) but 'Old School' was awesome.
I say "carpe diem" at the end of every class meeting, half-sincerely and half-sarcastically. Only a few of my students know what that means, and even fewer know what I'm parodying. And among my colleagues, 'Dead Poets' Society' is a running joke. We'll facetiously suggest that for tomorrow's lesson plan, maybe we should have them all stand up on their desks and recite Wordsworth, as if that would ever work in real life. haha
Quack! Quack! Quack! It's amazing how the professional NHL team the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim were inspired by the movie, and not the other way around. Hockey is such a brutal, testosterone-charged sport, so I wonder how emasculating it must've been for all those players to play for a team based on a children's Disney movie. And at 9 years old, this was EXTREMELY inspiring.
'Hoosiers' reminds me of how spending my youth napping and eating on the couch should've really been spent working on my ball-handling skills and free throws and left-handed lay-ups. That's a sincere regret I have.
I saw 'Rudy' in the discount DVD bin at Wal-Mart recently. I should've bought it. When I watched it the first time as a kid, I remember really liking how the movie ended. He made the team, got his uniform, and even made it onto the field during a game...but he still basically sucked. I liked that. I thought that was really realistic and believable (in addition to the fact that this was, of course, based on a true story).
Samuel L. Jackson in 'Pulp Fiction' was cool because he was cool. Samuel L. Jackson in 'Snakes on a Plane' is "cool" because he's become a complete fucking caricature of himself.
I think I've seen 'Angels in the Outfield' about 20 times.
I may be going out on a limb here, but I suggest that people don't like 'Goonies' as much as they THINK they do. Yeah, it's fun little movie that makes you want to go on a treasure hunt, but it's not the end-all and be-all that some people make it out to be. That's the thing about nostalgia, it can make you believe things that you don't really believe. And in high school, there was this kid everyone called "Sloth" because he kinda, sorta barely looked like him. That was really fucking mean.
Falkor the flying dog-thing from 'The NeverEnding Story' used to creep me the fuck out. I didn't think it was whimsical at all...it was just scary.
The parade scene in 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' reminds me how the Beatles' version of "Twist and Shout" is, in my opinion, the greatest cover of all-time (and for reference's sake, Whitney Houston's cover of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" is a very close 2nd).
I cried a little..
