Great stage presence by Murray! I wonder how much ad-libbing he did here? I also found this as an .mp3 on a great Meatballs site called meatballsonline.
In a movie full of great scenes this one is the best. It is the first and, in my humble opinion, the best in the series of camp comedies. I have this gem on dvd. " It Just Doesn't Matter"
@JustATouchAway I know...doesn't it suck when people don't the epicness of such words? And you're like....a balloon that has been deflated, uttering the words...."I guess you guys never saw the movie.......what a shame!"
Hey.....@ 2:08 the girl to the left in the white shirt, was that the girl from Square Pegs, not SJP, but the other girl??????, I never noticed that before........
Yup, the White House needs all the help it can get because "health reform" is a HUGE failure. Poor president's poll numbers are dropping like a rock. :-)
I loved Meatballs 2 and the alien Meathead story but i wonder why they didn't bring Bill "Tripper" Murray, Chris "Rudy" Makepeace and Spaz for the sequels
actually it is not shot in lakefield, Ontario . It was shot at Camp White Pine in Haliburton Ontario and this was shot in the Staff Lounge. The building is still up and looks exactly the same. I grew up at this camp and spent much time in this building. Everything is still on the walls.
I remember seeing this movie in Joplin, MO, and I loved it so much. When my kids got to be like 3 yrs & older,I would say this and they always wanted to know why I said it. I told it was a movie and told them about the scene, and what a funny movie it was. I still say It just doesn't matter to this day, some 30 years later. This movie is a classic.
Same here regarding Meatball movie. I was 14. The movie takes you back and makes you feel like a kid. I wish I lived close to the camp or else I'd visit it.
Ohhhhh, this is where the opening sketch in Bill Murray's first SNL hosting stint came from.
