Hey everyone,
I dunno bout you guys, but I fell in love w/ this movie the first time I saw it. I can't say enough about it. A lot people think that the scene where Bobby is dancing in the gym is cheesy...given the whole MJ impersonations, but I just love it! He choreographed all his moves, they may be MJ ripoffs, but nobody could pull off an MJ ripoff like he could. My favorite quotes from the movie include:

(Bobby and Dinger at the very beginning of the movie)

Bobby- I'm in love.
dinger-that could be a problem
bobby- no, u don't understand, I'm really in love
Dinger- sure I understand, sure I do, which hand is it this week pal?

(Dinger talking to himself in Joel's car)

Dinger- wow...sh!t's gettin weird. Me, Dinger, this unbelievably good looking guy, sitting out her, freezing my a$$ off in some butt ugly red mustang.
Well... now I'm bored, what time is it? I don't have a watch, I never had I watch, why did I look at my wrist?
At a dance, dancing perfectly, w/ a hot chick. She wanted me, I know she wanted me...well ever girl wants me.
I should be in Hawaii dinking pinnocalada, looking at some Hawaii chick...HelloHoney.

sorry, but I just love this part. classic. I have the original vhs, but does anyone if it is out on dvd? Awesome, awesome soundtrack too. Jimmy Dean... great song!

Devolution here,
The name of the song isn't Jimmy Dean,
it's Rock on, by Michael Damian

Originally done in 1973
by David Essex, the song isn't worth your time believe me on this.
I have the Michael Damian video on tape during my teenage taping videos phase.

It is the worst video ever

"The name of the song isn't Jimmy Dean,

Just kidding!

I just thought you deserved that [Big Grin]

Devolution here,
Hey Muffy, thanks for the dig, and I will have you know that I am now in counseling and have put in contacts because I realized that everyone is laughing at me. As for my pocket protector, well, it's gone to a better place now. Certain things just drive me a little berserk like wrong names of songs. But hey I'm only human. At least that's what the Human League sang.

We are DEVO and muffy is just too cool for school

Hey Devo,
Glad you thought my dig was funny and not evil. [Smile]
Truth is I really dislike that song! [Razz]
I own the soundtrack,( Van Morrison, Otis Redding, REM )so great!!! I always flip Mr. Damian so quick. On the inside jacket of the CD it has all these pictures of the movie and one pic of Mr. Damian in a leather jacket leaning up on a wall. Stupid soap star turned 80's rockstar. [Razz]

You know, I first saw this film at the movies. I think I was 13. It was the first movie I ever paid for and fell asleep in.

I remember being very excited about it. I love everyone in the cast, but it didn't engage my young mind at all.

I did have the soundtrack and that definitely was good.
