Thornton Melon (Rodney Dangerfield) is concerned that his son Jason (Keith Gordon) is unsure whether to go to college, so the uneducated self-made millionaire encourages him by signing up as a student as well. As Jason tries to establish himself among his peers and make the diving team, Thornton falls for a pretty professor (Sally Kellerman) and gets others do his schoolwork for him. When the suspicious dean (Paxton Whitehead) finds out, Thornton needs to show he can get by on his own.

“and the reason guys like you got a place to teach is because guys like me donate buildings” legend
He's so right. Take notes here, kids. It's why the professor had nothing to say other than, "I wasn't speaking to you". Translation, this guy just called me out on my bullshit.
That actor who played dean martin was the crooked evil senator on the movie with marc whalberg The Shooter, 1997 movie
@@Plattencautious745 Ned Beatty. You should really watch Deliverance.
Line got a huge cheer when I saw this at the post theater in the army.
“Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach.”

“But I’d just like to say in all fairness to Mr. Melon here... it was a really big check." LOL
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Money talks.
Ned Beatty acts the hell out of that scene
😂😂😂 One of the best lines in the movie.
R.I.P. Ned Beatty (July 6, 1937 - June 13, 2021)
LMAO A perfect line! Every college admin would say the same thing
"I don't think Dr Barbay understands the actual amounts that are involved here." - Classic
So funny
The lil clap he gives b4 saying that was funny
As is the case with most academics...
The way Lou laughs in the end always cracks me up
Thorton is right, what matters is he can donate the building. What the school is selling he just bought. The rest is a joke.
It was a really big check...I love that line and have used it for years...Great movie
Thanks for the memories to Ned Beatty
Dean Martin
Gets me every time 😂😂 god I love this movie 😂
In all fairness to Mr Mellon it was a really big check. 😂
Ned Beatty.
LEGEND.
Agreed
After all of this, Dr. Barbay changed his name, moved to Boston, and became headmaster of the Marbury Academy where he had a run in with Dr. Frasier Crane and Dr. Lilith Sternin when they tried to enroll their son Frederick.

@@danielvanr.8681 thanks
Rodney is great at playing the wacky rich guy.
I dedicate this building to myself!
"And a little monkey business"👋🤣👉🦧im dead!💀👍 Rip🙏Mr. Rodney Dangerfield!
Thanks for the memories Paxton Whitehead (1937-2023)
Dr Barbay is pretty on point about them essentially selling admissions, but does he ever once have a comeback for the whole “Thornton has experience, not an education” argument?!
No, and if you pay attention, the Dr. keeps seeming to brush it off because Thorton is the only one to make the point and the Dr. doesn't take him seriously already.
Would've been better (in real life situation) had Dean Martin made the point also, but he only cared about the money (as administrators do) and this is a comedy.
Considering he runs a very successful clothing retail business, it's a no brainer to also have the ability to say you have a successful businessman affiliated with the university (notwithstanding the donation) as a selling point to future prospective students (networking, potential landing spot for jobs after graduation, etc). Had this just been some trust fund kid getting in because dad made a donation, Dr. Barbay would've had a better point.
Professor Bombay never says Thornton is wrong about the fact that guys like the professor can teach because guys like Thornton give money to the school.
Professor Bombay? This is not “The Mighty Ducks” 🤣
Future USC water polo building.
If they would've just done that, there wouldn't have been a problem.
And the most amazing thing is that when he donates big amounts of money to non-profit organizations, he can have an amazing tax deduction on his IRS forms and he can get even better revenues by donating money... a lot of people prefer donating their belongings to get amazing tax credits... Melon is amazing and he knows the real world out there :)
Yeah and that’s right and that’s why the economics students took notes in Thornton’s words.
Pretty much how every Ivy League school does business.....
Ned Beatty is just the best
2:08 Needs to happen to just about every university professor/lecturer in America...
I have three university degrees, and I used to think I wanted to spend my professional life in academia. I'm really disappointed by what's happened to higher education. That's why I love this movie so much. It was made before academia went really crazy, but it satirizes it perfectly without being mean spirited.
YES IT DOWN
I must’ve been an outlier because a majority of my professors were actual professionals in their field. Business Law teacher was an actual corporate lawyer, HR class as an actual HR for a company, hell even my fun elective wine tasting class was a sommelier who taught for fun!
@XSDX3R0 I went to college in the 1990s. I don't know as much about how college professors are today, are more of them today not so much professional in their fields as they once were?
@@alvexok5523 No, they aren't. I have two undergraduate degrees, Economics and Data Analytics. For my Economics degree, all my professors had real world experience but for my Data Analytics degree (Business Degree), only one of my professors in my major had real world experience. Also, for all my electives, zero of my profs were anything but academics. I graduated this year btw.
I'm still looking for the clip where he says he could "donate his body to science fiction".
He says that during the final swim meet just before the coach calls him to come do the triple lindy
@@alvexok5523 OH, the "triple Lindy" scene ... pure comic magic! (as is the entire movie!)
Those who can, Do. Those who can't, Teach! Enough said!
"good clean business" LOOOOOOOL
Preach Melon, preach!
I love Ned Beatty
"the business of America.... is business"
Shame to see him dirtying up a late '40s MG TC. They were imported to the US with right hand drive only. A perfect car for the character.
Both characters are right in this scene.
I doubt it's a real one, likely a replica. If it is, they probabaly wrapped the interior. It's like the Ferrari from Ferris Bueller they kicked out the window, it was just a Pontiac Fiero underneath. lol
Sherlock 😂😂😂
Ned looks good. All the best these days, man. We're not getting younger, bro!
I heard that Olivia Jade Giannulli can do the Triple Lindy
And straighten out your Longfellow
Lmao
Oh right Phiiiiil..
..whatever it is I've said today... shakes head - too funny
thanks for the building sir.

0:39 hey yo paulie
There were a lot of 80s movies where, while they are funny, when you watch them later, the jerk had a point after all.
While he did have a point, teaching false things about real life is even MORE dangerous.
@@roamer1389 What he actually teaches isn't necessarily false, except for the fact that you'd do better leasing the factory instead of buying when you have high interest rates, he just didn't get into the legally questionable aspects of business.
And that's the problem with professors like him; they don't listen to what people with real experience have to offer.
@@roamer1389 The only things that really set Barbay off early in the movie were: 1) that Melon bought his way into the school without any qualifications, 2) advising students to bribe elected officials and pay the mob back, and 3) cheating on his midterms. He had a point about all three, and his exam was kids play compared to what would be done to other cheating subjects.
Golden Rule: the one with the gold RULES.
Dont forget before they start building theyre gonna need to grease the local unions and bribe the polititions!.why not just lease!
"Thanks, Dean Martin"!!!!!!
The best!
“ It’s strictly business “
It's Dean Martin. :D
"Uh right, Phil......, umm............."
Love The Real World/Sherlock part. 🪐💰🌎
The business of America.......
Is business.
Does anyone know if Coolidge actually said that?🤔😁
@@corbind8193 yes, Calvin Coolidge did say this quote in 1924 or 1925 in one of his many speeches, I read it because I was asking the same question hahaha
I am outraged.
That's the way it's done
I just realized yesterday Grand Lakes' mascot 😄

The movie 🎥 film 🎞️ Back 🔙 to School 🏫 (1986) happened on the month 🗓️ of August 🏫🚌. 💜
Business business to the new generation of business we owe all our business. Now on to business!
To b fair it was a really big check.😏
How about the "legacy admissions "
" I don`t think Dr. Bombay"" !!!!
Barbay
Come right away?
"I tell ya, I got this crazy doctor, you know my doctor, Dr Vinny Boombatz, you know my doctor? Why he told me last week in his office he had 6 cases of VD. I mean he's alright now ya know" 👌
"dean Martin"..lol

Mr Farkas
"squeal like a pig" RIP
How more pedantic can you get here!! I WASN'T SPEAKING TO YOU, MR. MELON....
I wouldn't really call that pedantic per se. Now I'm actually being pedantic lol
hmm yes.... Shallow and pedantic
Whoever said that a college professor knew anything about the real word??!!
hey it's bobby from deliverance
Dean Martin😂
What is that clicking sound?????
Barbay is a tool. White Thornton swooped in and walked off with his woman. Lol. RIP Rodney Dangerfield❤ truly one of a kind.
That Barbay guy was a jerk!
And the same kind of jerks teaching our universities children bad Americanism
Who played Dr Barbary. Sp
Paxton Whitehead
Ŕòs Helen look it up lol.
@@jonhendrickson9701 I know, the effort that took to type the question could have been googled and they would have had the answer right away.
Dr Barbay has a pretty mouth...weeeeeeeee
Dr. Barbay does have a point
But it was a really big check
I really didn't like that guy.
Though the film is poking away at the "snooty professor" (concerned about ethics..."admission requirements"! Bah! Who needs those if we're talkin' $$!!) it entirely missed the real problems; if Monsanto gives lots of $$, do they get to determine WHAT YOU TEACH AT "YOUR" SCHOOL???!!!
Joseph Godfrey
I imagine that someone who works on the real world, and doesn’t get by on regurgitated useless academia, would want his money to be used to improve people’s lives in fields that were helpful to him. So therefore they wouldn’t want to invest in a building that teaches left handed puppetry.
@@johnhein2539 Therein lies the rub. When you start to attach strings, the quality of the education declines.
