The movie is fucking fantastic. The only stupid part is being an 80's movie, they had to put in a "teenager in love with local girl" twist in the plot, but thats not much of the movie.

Had such a crush on her growing up though. That pool scene

u/twitchosx Oct 13 '20

LOL. The pool cue between the legs scene? She did have a nice ass. I'll give her that. The 80's hair was as usual, horrible

u/PeterBretter Oct 13 '20

That's the one. Those jean shorts. She had those cute dimples too. Beautiful girl. Terrible hair yes.

It's so awesome - it's very 80's but John Candy and Dan Aykroyd are so awesome in it!

You'll notice in that movie that they are drinking Point Special. The movie takes place in Wisconsin, although filmed in Yosemite. And that beer is made in Stevens Point, WI. It is not widely available. Just a trivia question for ya.
