To be fair, we were discussing our high school reunion and how so many people were disappointed by the small scale gathering we had. I liked it as it was much cheaper and I have the internet to keep in touch with the people still worth talking to. My thought was most people were disappointed because they expected this Romy and Michelle type confrontation and then we'd break out into a dance sequence. He, being crazy like me, asks which one we'd do. He went with Encino Man.
Excellent choice, sir.
D'oh, now it's game on. My first thought was the one from Can't Buy Me Love. I know it's a deep pull, but it was dumb and for some reason I wanted one that had everyone joining in instead of the focus being on just a few. (The whole damn movie is on YouTube but I have it on the right spot here.) So then what, Breakfast Club? Ferris Bueller? Well, maybe just for kicks, the Saturday Night Fever parody from Airplane! but only after the guy gets stabbed?
An oldie but goodie.
I had to act fast as the joke get less funny as more time passes. I know because Greg Fitzsimmons just said it on his Jason Ellis episode that I listened to last night. I got distracted by the sequence from 500 days of Summer and remembered that JGL needs to go on my list of five. Finally, with confidence I made my choice.
How can you wrong with Mark Fucking Wahlberg?
The internet gives me so much to distract me. I simultaneously thank and curse it. On a final note, I love this video I found. Enjoy.
Just like my wedding day.
