Chevy Chase was originally chosen to play Otter. Instead, he was filming a light comedy with Goldie Hawn. After all these years, I'm glad that it was Tim Matheson. Chevy Chase, in my humble opinon, was a bore and the most overrated "comic" of the time.
This is the speech that perfectly defines how I feel about SOPA. Are we gonna let a group of money-grubbing bastards take away our right to a free Internet? Is the fight to defend YouTube over? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor or the Soviets passed Prohibition? HELL NO!! They have no right to take it all away! Fight and let the government know that we will not stand for it!!
About 5 years ago I did this speech for my final in my high school public speaking class. I had the college shirt on and I even ran out of the room like Bluto. I got a well deserved A.
@Cardinals314 you invoked the spirit of Bluto thats in all of us. Maybe Bluto should have majored in public speaking to improve that 0.0 gpa of his lol

I've actually quoted "the Germans" line in a speech a few times. You can always tell the loser in the crowd because he is the one who tries to correct you and obviously hasn't seen the film.
