So any time anyone grouses about what a plague Animal House has been on the Greek system because it showed college students (gasp) having sex and drinking alcohol, all it tells me is they need to get their history straight.
Oh and Seth Rogan, you are a giant a-hole for ripping off the title of a John Belushi movie. You are on minute 14, you talentless wannabe - hope you have some money in your mattress.

Yes, I'm glad someone caught that. The Belushi/Ackroyd "NEIGHBORS" was a prefect role-reversal for both actors; oh the great things Mr. Belushi would have done, possibly a few Oscar nominations by now, if he had lived.
The same theme of embracing diversity is also evident in "REVENGE OF THE NERDS". A few years ago, there was a remake of REVENGE on the fast-track at Twentieth Century Fox but after Emory University in Atlanta turned them down for location filming, the project was shelved. ANIMAL HOUSE is one film, IMO, that can never be remade.
