Good College Movies
 
I just wanted to know some movies that could be considered good college movies. Besides the really obvious like 'Animal House'

Any movie with sororities, and fraternities
a good movie I know of is 'Glory Daze'

if you've not seen that, you should...
I was just wondering if there are any other movies like that you guys may know...someone once mentioned a animal-house style sorority movie that sounded interesting...
any mentionables??

one of my favorite movies that is in a college setting is "The Skulls." it is more about a secret society than a fraternity, but it's a good movie.

but yeah...that's the type of movies I'm searching for...I've seen that one...but any types of flix like that...

What about Road Trip? the fraternity house scenes were one of the funniest in that movie! Little Sister with Alyssa Milano is also a good movie w/ Greek life involved (its real old though).

I can't think of other real good college movies right now..the other ones that come to mind are "chick flick" ones like Loser and Boys and Girls and I don't think you'll like those http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

I'll go to work today (blockbuster)and I'll keep this thread in mind...I'll go browsing and post again.

PCU, Revenge of the Nerds, the first one or two anyway, Dead Man on Campus. those are some good ones I could watch time and time again.

PCU is such a hilarious movie!!!

Has anyone else noticed that there is a shortage of really GOOD college movies. I mean there are tons of great high school movies that manage to be sweet, funny, poignant coming of age stories. For example all of the John Hughes movies. However, college movies tend to be about drunken debauchery and little else. Someone needs to make a really good movie about the growing process we go through in college. Aren't there some future screenwriters and actors around here....

All the good college movies I can think of, that aren't already listed, are more of sports movies such as "Rudy" or "Love And Basketball"

Well, this movie is so bad it's hysterical to watch. It's called "The Brotherhood" and it's about vampire fraternity members. Plug the tape in, kick back and laugh at all the sterotypes and innacuracies

I also have heard there's a horror film out called "Rush Week" but I havent seen it.

If you do want a good college film, there's an old John Cusack film "The Sure Thing". Check it out

I can't believe someone else has seen that. One of my bros rented it one night, and then he bought it on ebay. it is SOOO terrible!

There is a movie called Gossip (Cast includes Joshua Jackson and Kate Hudson) that is pretty good. I'd say it was worth seeing.

Threesome

There's a Spike Lee movie about black college life, mostly sororities and fraternities. Called "School Daze" or something similar. One of the most entertaining movies I've ever seen. National Lampoon did a great job with A-House. It's going to take a Spike Lee or somethimng that talented to make a great movie about Greeks. Isn't Steven Speilberg in a fraternity? (Theta Chi, TKE?)
