Top "School" Movies?
 
Well it's back to school time so how about a look at the classic "High School" and "College" movies? The obvious classics are Animal House, Fast Times, Breakfast Club, but what movies am I missing here?

What are the all time best "school" themed movies? I want to do up a Top 10 based on people's feedback and run it down live on Chaotic Radio next week, so you tell me - What was your all time favorite and what classic "High School" and "College" movies are we forgetting here?

I can't believe none of you listed "Fast Times at Ridgemont High." That's, like, the quintessential high school movie.

I always had a fondness for "Sixteen Candles." And you whippersnappers are probably too young to remember "Porky's," but that was a classic. And, of course, "Revenge of the Nerds."

I've probably dated myself here. :p

"Have you seen this penis?! It's considered armed and dangerous!"

I'm partial to the naughty schoolgirl movies.
