What is wrong with you idiots? This is not a documentary. It's called a comedy. And in comedy there are jokes. And a

I too am surprised by the uptightness. I love the film just as much today as I did when it was first released. It has a good heart.

Agreed! I'm watching this for the 800th time on the Sundance Channel, so I thought I'd see what the boards had to say, and holy crap, what a bunch of paranoid, uptight whiners. Compared to teen movies past and present this has to be among the least offensive. Just middle class middle America comedy.

I wasn't surprised one bit with people on here having a problem with this movie.This is my first time watching this and half way through I knew people would have a problem with it.They say fagt,reta and everytime the Asian boy shows up they play that sound
.All of that was funny including the part when they start playing The Godfather theme while the Italian fianc was talking
.
This is a COMEDY in the 1980's.Why would they hold back?
I'm more surprised that you guys are shocked that sensitive people have a problem with this COMEDY.They do that to every COMEDY that isn't afraid to make fun of things that they consider to be off limits.Check some of the other COMEDY boards and you will see it isn't just this movie.It's ridiculous.

This film is totally UN-PC, and I love it!!! A masterpiece like this film would never get made today. Too many people get offended when the wind blows.

Amen, jgroub! People are WAY too uptight in today's PC Mad society. Most of them wouldn't know a joke if it bit them on the ass.

If a joke bit them on the ass, they would press sexual harassment or rape charges against it.

Exactly, it would violate their "safe space."
When did people get so soft?

Agreed. But you have to remember that this is the same generation that needs safe spaces if they hear something that offends them.

I concur. One of the things I love about comedies from the 1980's was how edgy the humor was in them. Comedy isn't meant to be bland, safe, and inoffensive. The best humor has some kind of edge to it so it isn't just funny, but provocative as well.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
