I mean Trey and Matt are no fools...they obviously agree with OPs point...and purposefully made the bad guy too fricking blonde.

Because that was the 80's and people would recognize it more compared to just another hair color.

Last I checked, the Alpha Betas weren’t raping women, recording them showering, and selling their naked pictures on campus.

Saw Maverick last night and the blonde guy was definitely an over the top arse hole


Movies have ~2 hours to tell you who all the characters that matter are while also telling the story, so unless they get a ton of screen time they have to exaggerate characteristics to achieve that. Thats why they make certain people (Hangman in Maverick for example) totally insufferable.

In any sport, if you wanna go from just a beginner to a pro, you need a montage. Even Rocky had a montage.

This must be what's held us back as a race from really succeeding in society.
