How much is it selling for at Best Buy? I am so glad someone mentioned it on here, being on DVD, I have an edited version I taped off tv, but to buy it on video on Ebay, I always got outbid, it would sell for over $30. I looked it back up now, and there are a bunch copies on Ebay on DVD, ranging from $6-$20-so I wondered what you can buy it in the store for, and save shipping, cause it is a must have. It has probably one of the best 80's soundtracks ever. I love Journey- they are my favorite 80's band, I saw them in concert last summer, and even without Steve Perry-they were excellent.

I just bought Breakin and Breakin 2 off Ebay- I wish I'd had known, but oh well- they are my all time favorites. Someone else wrote on here about looking for the soundtracks, I have bids on both right now, that music was excellent. I love that movie, everything about it, Lucinda Dickey is so nice, and can out dance anyone I have ever seen. I love Ozone and Turbo, that are great! I love the scene when they are teaching her to dance to the song by Chaka Khan, Ain't Nobody...I have watched that scene a million times! I can't find one thing wrong with that movie-it is a perfect movie. I love movies with a message, and that one has the best.. Don't let anyone put you down, and do what you believe in, and go for it, it has a great moral lesson in it for kids today to learn to not fight and band together and unite. Nothing good comes out of hate and jealousy. I think I'll be taking a trip this weekend to Best Buy.

Devolution here, Don't get me wrong, I have Breakin 2 on dvd, but these weren't the best acted movies of all time, the dancing was good, but I don't know, Turbo and Ozone, they dresses a little too out of control. Try Beat Street, or Krush Groove. They were way ahead of there time.

I actually thought the acting wasn't too bad, for being dancers, there was barely any talking anyway. I loved Turbo and Ozone's clothes, they changed more times than they actually spoke, but that was cool too me. I love Lucinda's clothes. I haven't seen the other 2 movies, but I am now keeping track of some new movies to find, so I'll add them to my list, I have head of them. Tuff Turf with James Spader and Kim Richards was kind of along those lines of those movies. I haven't heard abyone mention the movie RAD yet, that was my brother's favorite movie, and I know teenage boys now who think it's the coolest.

Devolution here, Rad is reviewed on the site, so everyone either knows about it or just can't get their hands on the movie, I have had the movie on tape twice actually, just something that you record the second you see it's on.

Does anyone know if other store chains are carrying The Last American Virgin, besides Best Buy? I looked in Kmart and Wal-Mart- and even Blockbusters, and I didn't see it there.

Ok, so like..I was on vacation for a couple days, and on the way home last night, I thought, gee I have to find a Best Buy, cause of hearing all these great deals on 80's movies. So, I went to Best Buy-they didn't even have The Last American Virgin, maybe they sold out, they had Valley Girl for $14.99. So, I went to Circuit City, they had the buy 1 get free if you buy 1 MGM movie for $9.99- which I found The Last American Virgin, but then it took me forever to find 1 other MGM movie, for my free one. I ended up getting The Fog. But They had all their DVDs all mixed up. And I wondered if there had been some sale when everyone else bought theirs, cause a friend even told me, he got 2 for $10 somewhere, and I thought it was Best Buy, but they acted like I was speaking a foreign language when I asked them about a special deal like that? Maybe it is only certain areas?

I finally got to watch it, and I forgot how totally depressing the end of the movie was. How could Karen go back to Rick at the end? I felt so bad, after watching Gary pawn all his stuff for her, and then buy her that necklace, just to be dumped. What a bum deal.
