Lassie scene was great too. The one coach is laughing so hard he can’t breathe.

Where do these rank for you in goofball sex comedies?

The original is way up there. The sequel wasn't very good from what I can remember (although I haven't seen it in a decade or two), and I never saw any other ones.

But the original is so great. The talleywhacker scene is one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen in my life. It makes me cry laughing every time I see it, even if it's just watching that lone scene on youtube. It's so funny.

ETA: I remember being fairly young (maybe like 12/13 or so) and my dad let me watch it with him. And I was amazed at the shower scene. That stuck with me for a long time. Looking back, it maybe wasn't the best dad move, but man did I appreciate it at that age. Thanks, Dad.

That's a travesty. Porky’s is a classic.


the scene in the principal's office alone makes it classic.

Of all the movies this board massively overrates EuroTrip has got to be in the top 5 (with The Patriot firmly entrenched at #1). It's average at best and for the most part on the level of stuff like Sex Drive and Fired Up. Never mind Porky's and American Pie, it's not even on the level of Road Trip.


This is a dumbfoundingly bad take that honestly makes me question if you have even seen any of these movies.

I actually kinda agree with that. Eurotrip is solid, but that's about as high of praise that I'd give it. It's not as good as Road Trip, as you stated, and of course not on the same level as comedy classics like Porkey's, American Pie, Superbad, etc.

True.

These follow The Godfather Arc for me. Lol

One and Two are both great. I watched Two a million times. Col. Flagg from MASH as the old sleezy congressman trying to pick up high school poon.

Porky’s ranks #1 all time in the teenage sex comedy category. Number 2, whatever it may be isn’t even close.


The other 2 Porkys movies were just OK.

I noticed last night that all 3 were on Amazon Prime. Watched the first one. It had been a while.

The big problem with Porky's 2 is that is supposed to be the next day, but the "kids" suddenly had receding hairlines.

Rewatched Porky's last night in honor of this thread, first time I watched it in 15 years.

What a complete pile of shite.

Its like if Mad Magazine collaborated with a couple of 12 year old boys to write a movie - the humor is limited almost exclusively to saying "dirty" words.

They literally had to dub in more screams for the interminably long Lassie scene, I guess because they were on day 8 or 9 of filming the movie and had already run out of jokes.

It wasn't as in your face, aggressively unfunny as Bachelor Party, it was merely not funny. Great bush scene though.
