    BETTER OFF DEAD. The cheerleader's outfit ripping. Awesome.

    "This is pure snow! Do you have any idea what the street value of this mountain is?" - that booger guy

    That mailman dropping the letters always cracks me up. :D

    Plus, BOD has Chozen from Karate Kid II. ;)

    I'm talking about the 80's here, since the two movies referenced came out in that era. Since then he's obviously done much more than MJF.

    Fair enough, but even the 80's Cusack had some pretty memorable films:
    Say Anything
    8 Men Out
    The Sure Thing
    Better Off Dead
    The Journey of Natty Gann

    I can't really say I'm a fan of Hot Pursuit or One Crazy Summer

    Cusack also had bit parts in Sixteen Candles, Class, and Stand By Me.

    Solid work for the decade, and I thought Say Anything established him as an adult actor and was the springboard for his work in the 90's while a lot of 80's actors kind of faded away.

    No doubt. He will always be able to find a role in a love story after that movie. The ladies loved Lloyd Dobler.

    Only one of these two movies was directed by the Great Savage Steve Holland.

    Definitely Casualties of War. The Secret to My Success was a pretty good harmless 80's flick.

    I liked Bright Lights Big City. He's all coked up in that one.

    I had the soundtrack on vinyl and played it on my Big Bird portable record player.

    Yeah, I remember that movie now. I liked it, iirc, should watch it again.

    Don't forget Midnight Madness! I think that was his first role.

    That was a funny flick. What a sniveling little brat he was in that film.
