Do you remember how "Animal House" ended?

[vlyons]

The John Belushi character, Bluto Blutarsyi, become a senator. How prophetic!. Just thought that I'd throw that out there.

5. The movie ended with Belushi as a US Senator. The original National Lampoon story/script

had Belushi/Bluto as President of U.S. Steel

7. Yes!

Good comparison!

8. Exactly! I quoted that line to my wife not 2 days ago

Only a couple of months ago, after almost 30 years of marriage, I finally persuaded my wife to watch the movie with me (and I hadn't seen it in that long, either), since it's kind of a cultural touchstone.

She wasn't impressed overall, and you know, frankly it didn't hold up very well to me, either. She did also like that "Senator and Mrs. John Blutarsky" final line, though.

Of course, the hilarious unlikeliness of that line came many, many years before the occupant of the White House made so many formerly-outrageous jokes like that forever less funny...

9. I also recall the angel/devil scene. He doesn't do it.

She’s passed out in the middle of a clear intention to have sex, but she’s passed out. His inner devil and angel argue over it but it’s clear he just isn’t that guy.

None of the regular guys, whatever weirdoes they are, are THAT guy.

10. that was Pinto

in a line from the book but cut from the movie... they explain his frat name

"The guy with the spotted dick!"

oh, and the checkout girl that was his date (daughter of the local car dealer), was only 13 (I think).

12. She was the dean's daughter, which made it so much worse. Both the dean's

wife and daughter got wasted at the party.

Pinto didn't know the girl was 13. (how many 13 year-olds work as cashiers?)

[lapfog_1]

13. nope - her name was Clorette DePasto

Her dad owned the local car dealership and was Mayor of the town (Carmine DePasto)

11. And the gung-ho military dude was killed by his own soldiers.

I think the summary at the end was the second funniest thing in the movie, the funniest was the chaos that was created at the parade.

14. What was even better...

...was almost all the Deltas became respectable citizens - though D-Day disappeared and Boon and Katy got divorced - and every one of the Omegas met a bad end.
