I originally saw this movie years ago on HBO and had always wanted to own it. I highly recommend that you see this movie. It is funny and it also teaches us that no matter what we look like or where we come from, there is always an inner beauty in us.
This movie is great for a laugh. If you're looking for a movie to watch with your children and you aren't into high brow education it's perfect. Great for bringing the generations together and have a common reference for jokes.
If you haven't seen this movie, make sure you do. Bob Malooga looga looga looga loogs is the funniest character ever. The movie itself is not the greatest but the lines that come out of Bob's mouth are lines that you will repeat to your friends and get a laugh everytime. "Why don't I just call you Bob" "Dont Know?"
I had this movie on VHS and one of boys loaned it out and I never got it back. I tried to order it through some video stores but found out that it was not being made anymore. A friend of mine suggested Ebay and lo and behold, there it was. The movie is on VHS which doesn't have the greatest picture, but I love this movie and I am very pleased with my purchase.
Big Man on Campus is a very funny movie. I had been searching for it for some time. I actually lost 6 auctions before I actually got this copy. Although the story is funny there is an underlying message that people can't be judged by their looks. I highly recommend watching this movie if you can find it.
Because I watched this movie in the 80's and it was the funniest movie I had ever watched. I have tried to rent this movie several times or buy it and could never find it till I found it on ebay. I bought it because no matter how many times I watch it, I laugh till my sides ache. Funniest movie ever!!!!!
As stated in anothre review posted here, this is a 1980's American verison of the Hunchback of Notre-Dame.
I first saw it many years ago and found it hilarious, good clean fun with even a wink at the infamous TV talk shows.
I found the most funny moments to be when Bob is interviewed by the school's pannel to assess his progress(Oh boy!) and when he states his name (Malooga, looga looga looga, looga. 1 Malooga-4 loogas!
Looking forward to seeing it again and again.
I find it quite unbelievable that it hasn't been released on DVD nor that I had to come to E-Bay to find it.
I bought this for my father for Christmas. This is one of his favorite movies, and I finally found it! He loved it! Excellent condition and quick! Thanks so much!!!
Big Man on Campus is a 1989 twisted modernization of the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Written by Allan Katz, who also stars as Bob Maloogaloogaloogaloogalooga (the Hunchback)BMOC is simply hilarious, and has been largely ignored. Even Blockbuster's new movie program does not offer BMOC, which has been out of print and never converted from VHS to DVD. The story follows Bob as he pursues Kathy and his bid to be a normal UCLA student. The movie co-stars Cindy Willimas (of Laverne & Shirey fame) and Tom Skerrit (who I am sure does not brag about his portrayl as a psychologist). This movie will make you laugh, and deserves to be seen by a larger audience. A movie highpoint is Bob's first visit to a fast food chicken restuarant where he is urged to order any part of the chicken. His order? "Two faces." When asked to give himself a name, he chooses "Judy Finkle." If you can find it, you will enjoy BMOC.
I saw this movie once several, many years ago and have looked for it ever since. I absolutely have to have this movie. There are very few things in this world that I HAVE to have, and this is one of them. I may cry if I don't get it.
This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen! I saw the movie years ago and had been looking for it for quite some time. When I found it on Ebay I ordered it immediately and have enjoyed it ever since!
Big Man on Campus is hysterical! Unfortunately, not many people have ever heard of it. The reason i bought it on ebay, is because i cannot find it in stores or even rent it. If you love stupid humor, it's a must see!
This is my favorite movie. I have looked in every movie store I went into and could not find it. I found it on Ebay and bought it. I got the movie within 2 weeks and I am very happy with everything!!!
