But Thats In Ohio...

Many of you will recognize the title of this blog as a line in a movie. If you don't recognize it, please go watch Revenge of the Nerds Post Hast...POST HASTE!!!!
Ok, but to remind you all, the line happens when Stan Gable, the Star Quarterback and President of Alpha Beta Fraternity asks Dudley Dawson (AKA Booger) "What are you looking at, Nerd?". Booger responds by saying..."I thought I was looking at my Mother's Old Douchebag, but that's in Ohio".
This leads into a new Foundation Blog Series...to go along with many other series that the Foundation has started, and not necessarily finished...
The Foundation Biggest Douchebags of Film Series.
Now, this is not a competition, or list, And surely you will be able to think of bigger douchebags than the ones that I post, but this is hopefully going to be an ongoing series highlighting the biggest douchebag characters in movie history.
Anyway, here we go. Todays entry into the Foundation Biggest Douchebags of Film Series is:

Rick (played by Steve Antin, who later appeared in Goonies as another douchebag: Troy), one of the trio of main characters in the 1982 comedy Last American Virgin.

First off a bit of a plot summary, Rick, Gary (played by Lawrence Monoson, who later played Eric Stoltz' friend in Mask, who was supposed to go on the motorcycle trip with him) and David (played by Joe Rubbo, who appeard in an uncredited role as Wrestler in The World According To Garp) are high school friends who pretty much try to figure out ways to get laid.
Needless to say, in true 80's fashion, Gary ends up falling for Monique from Better off Dead, Hijinks ensue, I would give a better Summary, but really, the movie is summed up quite well in the following video, and it has a nice James Ingram Soundtrack to boot...(from the soundtrack of the movie, which is TREMENDOUS).



What A DOUCHEBAG!

And to Monique, (actually her name was Karen in the movie, but how can I call her anything but Monique) You really dissapoint me too! You are definitely a Douchebag too! How could you hurt Gary so? You're just not nearly as big of a Douchebag as Rick...so you get off easy.
