Better Off Dead
It's a pretty morbid thought, but it's my favorite movie of all time. It's about a guy that is thinking about 'offing himself' because his girlfriend (who he is obsessed with) breaks up with him. Well, his attempts are usually halted because of him coming to his senses or a friend talking him out of it, etc. So, there's this kid, the paper boy, who is trying to collect his money- 2 dollars. And he keeps chasing him all throughout the movie screaming- "I Want My Two Dollars!!!" Warning: this flick is probably not PC. Lane Meyer, played by John Cusack tries to ski the k-12, a most dangerous mountain, to win back Beth's love. "Badger," his little brother is an inventive little guy and builds a space shuttle in the garage. The mom isn't very domestic, but she tries hard. The dad, played by David Ogden Stiers of MASH fame is slightly out of touch. The kid across the street, Ricky is somewhat of an overweight mama's boy, whose family has taken in a foreign exchange student, Monique. Ricky's mom would love to see he and Monique 'hit it off,' but Monique does everything she can to escape his pathetic advances. So many characters in here, so many quirky lines and scenes. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088794/
