"Just One of the Guys" has a stellar cast with Joyce Hyser, Deborah Goodrich, Clayton Rohner, Sherilyn Fenn, and William Zabka.
This movie offers tons of 80's nostalgia in my opinion.
I can't mention "Just One of the Guys" without commending Billy Jayne for one of the most hilarious and memorable performances ever as Buddy.
"Don't get me wrong. It's not like I've never had sex before; I've had lots of sex. It's just that now I'd like to try it with a partner."
And if you miss your 80's clothes, you can enjoy some classic 80's fashion throughout the movie. Those outrageous outfits that Deborah Goodrich wore were actually quite popular....I think??
But best of all is the awesome Ronnie Spector song "Tonight You're Mine Baby" that is played a couple times during the movie.
I totally enjoyed the setting for the prom on the beach. The theme was "Passion In Paradise"....check out that huge banner in the background at the cafeteria and then later at the beach above the Brock/Davis band.
Any new fans of this movie?

Sherilyn Fenn was gorgeous in this. No matter how cheap and tacky this film is, I'll always have a place for it in my heart. How good was Joyce Hyser at looking like a guy?!
"Dresses like Elvis Costello, looks like the Karate Kid... I'm gonna meet him!"
Probably the most 'valid' breast shot in any film.
"Where do you get off having ****?!"

Okay.. truth be told .. when I picked Johnny Lawrence on my "Fade To Black" thread.. I was totally torn between Lawrence and my truly fav William Zabka villain -
"I see you met Greg Tolan...kinda runs the school. I'm Rick Morehouse...try not to get us confused."
"Just One of the Guys" is beyond underrated!!

Muffy.. that is hilarious! Unfortunately, I'm a little older than you.. or fortunately in 80's terms since I at least remember sneaking back downstairs after everyone went to bed and sitting up all night watching most of these movies on HBO.
btw.. please don't call my mom and tell on me .. okay?
Summer vacation in the 80's was soooo much fun!

If it weren't for HBO, I don't know if I would have ever seen movies like "Heathers" and "Just One of the Guys." Those movies were on cable non-stop in the 90's! Comedy Central used to play "Just One of the Guys" pretty often as well.

I was a poor kid haha We only had HBO when there were free previews and we got to "rent" a VCR remember those days? it came in a big plastic suitcase you took home and plugged in.....VCR's were too expensive so we rented them ha!

Yes, I remember those! Do you remember when you could rent DVD players from Blockbuster in the late 90's too? We did that once... Posts: 731 | From: Racine, WI | Registered: Dec 2003 | Site Updates: 0

my favorite part in this and the funniest bit in the whole movie in my opinion:
Terri: "Yeah, Well maybe my Balls Don't itch."
Buddy: All Balls itch, it's a fact!
Terri: "Well maybe this will help..." (Terri proceeds to shove a pair of balled-up socks down the crotch of her jeans...stands back and examines them in the mirror.) "Not Bad."
Buddy: (begins comparing his package to that of his sisters.) "$Hit! Maybe I should try that."
Always bust up at that part..lol

Ronnie mentioned watching it.. so I obviously had to bump this thread..
Deborah Goodrich rocked so many great outfits in this flick. None better than the red & white outfit pictured at the top of the thread.
And the beach prom with the "Passion In Paradise" theme is the ultimate!

even when I read the title the song gets in my head........."one of the guys......."
I will always love this movie so much.........actully I think I quote it more then I do others. "yo Terri" "It's ok everybody, he has ****"
Don't even get me started on Buddy quotes!
It's all about Rick Moorehouse......I loved him........when he geeked out about James Brown I was in love. I also had a crush on Booger.........what can I tell you I wasn't mainstream Posts: 2912 | Registered: Jun 2003 | Site Updates: 26

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Most justified breast shot of any movie.
