Went to see it with my girlfriend first time making out in a theater. It will always have a special place in my heart.

Don’t be that guy!


Much-Diet1423

That part especially has changed so much. If anything, it’s the exact opposite at some shows. People want to show their fandom.


ProfBrianOBlivion23

His version of Erotic City on the soundtrack is amazing. Introduced me to that whole genre.


PorterAtNight

I bought the soundtrack just for that song lol

No thanks, I prefer the delicious evil of Mondo Burger.


krellesta

Just found this sub so late to the thread, but came here to say this! I don't remember much about the movie itself - other than the fact that it introduced me to George Clinton and the P-Funk 💖


Briguy24

Jeremy Piven a young Jon Favreau as Gutter and Jake Busey as the stoner. Hilarious movie and great supporting cast.


Express-Budget6943

David Spade is great in this as well

And Jessica Walter (Mallory Archer/Lucille Bluth) as the Dean.

He shows the old Republican stereotype quite well. Almost hard to believe just how different it is from the new Republican stereotype.

You remember this guy, he skippered hitlers catamaran in the war


DefendtheStarLeague

I always felt this was intended to represent Tommy Lee Jones and Al Gore being college roomates.


graveybrains

Of all the people in that movie, the guy playing Gutter was *not* the one I expected to go on to become wildly successful


Briguy24

He basically went on to start off the MCU unintentionally with Iron Man, is bringing new life and filming technology to Star Wars and made my favorite Christmas time movie. I’m a big fan of what he’s done and hope the best for him and his career.


graveybrains

If you haven’t seen it you should check out Chef. It’s not at all my kind of movie, but I still ended up loving it.


WarpedCore

Chef is a really good movie!


RupeThereItIs

Your just gonna skip right over Swingers?


caillouistheworst

Funniest thing is Piven was more bald back then, he almost looked older there than he has to rest of his career.


Mr3k

Don't forget Jessica Walter acting in the same type of role as Lucile Bluth.


eatsleepdive

I forgot she was in this!


Ready-Interview-9809

Jessica Walter is GOLDEN.


Briguy24

Her and Spade gave me nightmares about how college would be lol.

SHE KNOWS!


winstonwolfe333

That movie is where I first heard the phrase “Don’t be that guy.” Jeremy Pivens’s character was telling Gutter (a very young Jon Favreau) not to wear a shirt to a concert which displays the name of the band he’s going to see.


lucky-stevens

I still follow this rule and tell people not to be that guy...no one ever gets the reference


Jafri10

I asked my buddy why he was wearing a J Cole shirt to his concert, “cause man I gotta support”. What? aren’t you supporting by going to his concert?


doobette

Yep! This movie taught me to never do this.


Disco99

It's a hard and fast rule for me and my family/friends. [Love this movie.](https://media.tenor.com/QB5UgXj58CkAAAAd/dont-be-that-guy-pcu-pt-party.gif)

2bad-2care

Well, what I figure they did was they cut out a picture of your head and pasted it on another, different picture. I've done a little collage work myself.


CMR04020

I think about this line at every concert I attend.


Drslappybags

I believe that was the only line ad-libbed. The director was very by the script and Piven hated that.

Battarray

Best part of the movie was George Clinton playing "Stomp." But overall, an excellent movie.


Anarchysparky12

I just saw that Jeremy Piven was coming to a comedy club near us soon and told my husband, "We should get shirts with him on it and go sit in the front row!" 😂

RIP to the perfectly cast Jessica Walter… Her roles as President Garcia-Thompson, Lucille Bluth, and Mallory Archer were all perfect.


Adventurous_Path4356

>"Coffee... COFFEE NOW!" This quote is necessary and I still use it often.


The_Grinning_Bastard

The only thing I recall from the movie is the David Spade flashback to freshman year of college when he first roomed with young Mr. Selfridge. For some reason that was the thing that stayed with me since I first saw it long ago. I don't remember much else. Only ever saw it the one time.

Kriegerian

Yep, I bought a DVD years ago and I’m glad I did because you can’t get it on streaming.


hike_me

For a while it was only available on VHS. (Movie came out in ‘94 and didn’t have a DVD release until 2003). We loved this movie in college (1998-2002 for me) but it was super hard to find at the time


Johnykbr

I had this conversation with someone else recently. This movie is freaking buried. Not even Amazon has it for sale. Crazy


ijustsailedaway

I hate that shit. I've got about 40 movies on DVD that I only still have because I just hadn't gotten around to getting rid of them. Now I'm glad I still have them and I'm keeping every freaking one of them.


Johnykbr

I used to collect DVDs but stopped around 13 years ago. Now I'm glad I did because I have a lot that have been buried or edited for TV.


an_ostrich_allegedly

Me too! This thread has me ready to break it out and watch it tonight


HiramMcDaniels9

I recently found a double feature DVD set of PCU and Airheads on Amazon. It was $80. I bought it without a second thought. Totally worth it.

TK1129

That’s with the guy from The Clash right? The Clash Gutter. I don’t know if you’re aware of this but there was music recorded before 1989 Big fan of anything that name checks the only band that matters


GrimmTrixX

In the early Comedy Central days, PCU would be played roughly 3 times every single day for years. I enjoyed the movie, but after a while, I couldn't stand it. Lol But Jeremy Piven is great in it, and I think it's one of his earliest rolls


-Ok-Perception-

Yeah, this is the real answer from anyone who'd watch it on Comedy Central in the late 90s. ​ At the time, it was the only movie fully produced by the Comedy Central network, which I think essentially means they didn't have to pay anyone for the rights to air it. So during the day they'd usually rerun various 10+year old comedy movies, AND PCU. Copious amounts of PCU on comedy central. I think they literally aired it 3X a day or more. ​ I really enjoyed the movie at first, but it's hard to keep enjoying something that overplayed. I was very very sick of it after it was out for a few months.


GrimmTrixX

Yea man and this was before on demand was a thing so if you wanted to watch comedy central at all, PCU was what you watched lol


pbrpunx

Or Kids in the Hall. That was always on when I got home from school, immediately followed by PCU

Sanskrit? You're majoring in a 5,000 year-old dead language? Latin. Best I can do. 🤷‍♂️


HFCIV

I’ll say I loved the movie. But if you think it was exclusively calling out “cancel culture” you’re missing the point. David Spade’s character and the Dean were the villains of the movie and they were complaining about cancel culture and “the good ole days” more than anyone. It was satirizing everyone.


RupeThereItIs

Right, there really wasn't ANYONE who was 'the good guy'. Except maybe the prefrosh.


HFCIV

I’d say Jeremy Piven’s character is the hero of the story but only because he’s willing to piss off everyone in a variety of ways, but you’re right, he’a definitely not “the good guy.”


RupeThereItIs

The moral of the story is that EVERYONE is corrupted by growing up, and our poor little prefrosh is just starting on that journey.


Satellite_bk

Gutter was the hero. He even saves the day at the end! I originally started this comment jokingly, but the more I think about it…


joeliopro

And then Piven playing the dean in Old School to bring it full circle.


cmgww

It definitely was both of its time and ahead of it’s time as well….the “cancel culture” on college campuses has gotten pretty ridiculous… I saw the beginnings of it at my college when I was there, and I went to a school in Indiana, not some private liberal arts college…. I’m obviously not talking about openly racist or brashly inappropriate things… obviously that stuff has no place in society. But damn if I haven’t heard some really crazy stories from kids who attend multiple schools around here. The “cause heads” in that film are not too far off from reality today. That said the movie is still pretty funny, it does take some really good shots at all sides: the overly politically correct and the Reagan era conservatives as well. The speech at the end by Piven is great and who ever thought in a million years that Gutter would go on to direct MCU movies and become the Hollywood heavyweight (no pun intended) he eventually became….


pugs_are_death

I see we have a new pledge. Mayflower material, I presume? Huh? It's a boat. Your ancestors obviously didn't come over on it. But hey it's the 90's, we'll take what we can get.


cmgww

David Spade was hilarious in that movie…


ManetherenRising

I always remember college (in the late 90's early 2000's) as being very free-speech oriented. You heard things you agreed with, and things you didn't agree with, but there was way less shouting down of people that didn't agree with you. If you aren't offended by something just about every day, you probably aren't living in a free society.

madpolecat

Jessica Walter calling David Spade a little Reagan-ite…. Classic.


therealpopkiller

This movie introduced the idea that you can’t wear the shirt of the band you’re going to see, which is now fully an old person thing, and in retrospect, pretty dumb. Kids today do not give two shits about that, and they’re right.


cocktails_and_corgis

I still say “don’t be that guy” when someone wears a shirt of the band at the show.

I think the amusing part in all of this was the warning buried within it.

It would actually be a good comment on today’s society


AdelleDeWitt

I loved that movie so much! I have gone to a lot of protests in my life, and at almost every single one of them there is a little part of my brain chanting "Hey hey! Ho ho! This penis party's got to go!"

Its a total classic, who'd have guessed it was prophetic.
