College Times

Issue date: 4/16/09 Section: Top 10s

Yeah, yesterday was the infamous day where you do all the things your Mother warned you of when you entered college.

Recuperate from your reckless 4/20 shenanigans by slipping in one of the films, and letting it all hang out.

10. "The Big Lebowski": The word "dude" is spoken 133 times throughout the movie. It's a classic, and it'll make you want to drink White Russians for the rest of the day.

9. "Caddyshack": Yeah, it's a golf movie, but it's a cool gold movie. Plus, Rodney Dangerfield is a BAMF, so it's alright to like it.

8. "Office Space": God, this movie touches on so many things we all can relate to. Shitty jobs, the search for love and the need to beat the shit out of the malfunctioning copy machine.

7. "The Goonies": It awakens the little kid inside us all that just wants to find a mysterious map in our parents' attics and go on a treasure hunt.

6. "Fast Times at Ridgemont High": Sean Penn plays the ultimate stoner who breaks all the rules, but never gets caught.

5. Any of the "Ghost Busters" movies: They're silly enough so you don't think they're real, but scary enough to freak you out a little.

4. Any of the "Die Hard" movies: These movies are violent, bloody, sweaty, but somehow smart in an odd, but appealing way.

3. "Ferris Bueller's Day Off": He talks to the camera (you) as if you were inside the movie. So creative.

2. "Almost Famous": You can actually feel William Miller's angst as he becomes a roadie writer experimenting with a much older band.

1. "Dazed and Confused": Need I say more?
