Reproduction Cinema*: An Intellectual Approach to College Films

*This may very well not be a real term, but writing for this blog has instilled in me an almost academic feeling of superiority. In this sense, I'm entitled to make up self-serving language and bullshit as much as I'd please, which is ultimately the unannounced scope of this blog.**

**It could also be a real term I picked up somewhere.

My roommate turned underground frat bro turned me on to this movie (1994), which is mentionable for several reasons, ultimately voiding National Lampoon's Van Wilder (2002) as a great college film. PCU preceded Van Wilder as the film about a student who stays in school due to a poor academic record and a desire never to grow up. Furthermore, George Clinton makes an appearance and plays as Parliament Funkadelic. Pretty dope, right? Lastly, David Spade makes a young appearance, as does Jessica Walter (Lucille from Arrested Development, anyone?). These reasons alone qualify PCU as better. Therefore, Van Wilder is just a shitty reproduction that serves to hide in the closet a classic film. But then again, how could I forget this?


I wish I could lolcats hipster-runoff this collage.
