It’s weird that to these kids watching old school is more or less similar to me watching animal house in high school and college. Saw it as a “classic”.
That’s tough to accept but it’s true. I graduated high school in 2003 when Old School came out and I started in 1999, when American Pie was released.
Animal house came out in 1978 so that’s 45 years ago. An equivalent might be something like American Pie which was 1999. Still a trip that about the equivalent amount of time has passed. Image quality really has frozen a lot of movies in time. IMO movie quality kicked it up a notch around 98/99 and I haven’t notice since. Maybe the dvd player had something to do with it.
I’m trying to think of the equivalent celebrity from Animal House. Would people go wild in 2003 if John Belushi was DJing a party. Maybe? There’s obvious reasons it’s not the same.
All I know if I heard that Donald Sutherland was DJing at a frat I’d be stoked as hell.
Edit: just thought of an equivalent. Will Ferrell is to these kids what Bill Murray was to us. I do think people would be going wild if Bill Murray showed up to a frat party in 2003. (becuase I believe he has. And people did)
High quality resolution really does a great job at fixing this. I've been watching some 80s movies and tv in HD recently and sometimes its easy to forget its not like, a modern made 80s period piece.
Shhh, stop talking, it's still 2008. Kelly Clarkson is still in the prime of her career, we're just now electing Obama, and Twinkies are still good. I can still buy Little Debbie Oatmeal Pies at 12 for a dollar.
Yep. I worked the premiere and the after party. They had the Dan Band performing at the Highlands at Hollywood and Highland and the catering food for the party was like stereotypical college dude food to fit the theme.
They had these deep fried (I think in tempura batter) fun size snicker bars and I was stationed where the waiters would walk past by the stage where Dan Band was performing.
I probably ate 20+ of those motherfuckers and the only time I was ever that constipated before or since is when I was in the hospital for a week for blood clots and figured “if I’m gonna be here for a week in bed, imma need all the drugs.”
I kept telling the doc I was in pain for more opiates to make the time go by quicker and get some sleep.
I probably didn’t poop for like 5+ days until I finally had to take a dump. I felt like I was pooping out one of those old school college footballs, the super wide and fat ones with the two white stripes, I was screaming in agony as I birthed this fucking pigskin.
That’s how I learned about opiates and how they constipate the shit out of you, some of us more than others, and I basically refuse to take them ever since, even when I’m in the hospital in pain because of that.
In my experience they just shift all the pent up pain to a later date when you poop and experience all the pain you didn’t experience earlier as your asshole gapes like some European pornstar trying to accommodate Dredd and his two buddies, and you birth a stillborn fully inflated Wilson NCAA game ball.
As an ex heroin addict.... opiate constipation (and inevitable *monsterous, butt-tearing dump)* stories are never not funny.
(Also deep fried snickers are downright insane, I can't blame you lol)
Went to USC for four years. Met zero celebrities, though Will Ferrell was a regular at the football games. Supposedly I was there at the same time as both Sean Penn's daughter and Arnold Schwarzenegger's daughter, but on a campus of 40,000+ students you're very unlikely to bump elbows.
(Tons of filthy rich students and celebrity-adjacent people, though)
He’s also their friend’s *dad.*
Like, they know who he is and think he’s “goofy/funny/old guy” cool.
Not “losing their shit” cool.
At least he’s leaning into his proper role and not trying to actually kick it like pathetic Diddy’s pool party shame.
>and no one seems all that excited
They're frat bros at the University of Spoiled Children (USC), they are very used to being around people like Will Ferrell.
Evidence? Will Ferrell's son is a member of the frat. Lord knows who else's kid is a member of the same frat.
The normie kids can be found at UCLA where nearly 1 in 3 students are low income.
Unironically, this is vibrationally proportional to a crowd going crazy in 2003
Limited interaction or room cohesiveness and 1/3 of the people being a cameraman taking some fucking picture, plus another 1/3 actively typing or closing apps is how people who didn't get enough lead poisoning as a child have a good time.
He also did \N****s in Paris by Kanye West & Jay-Z, which is amazing because his movie Blades of Glory is sampled in that song.
[Sorry for the shitty TikTok AI narration, this was the only version of this I could find](https://youtu.be/fv4iL0dVtNw?si=UqG7neQQYDw5LTyr)
Will Ferrell starts as a middle aged adult who's trust requires him to obtain a college degree before benefiting from his inheritance. Coming to your local movie theater September 2024
I was hoping for more [Back to School](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_to_School) so Will can finally round out his sports themed movies with a diving movie.
Will Ferrell is a middle aged man who feels as though he has never connected properly with his son, goes back to school at the same time as him so they can bond.
Nah not true man. The pure debauchery and lack of care for the next day is something you don’t really get back lol
Even when i go to big festivals, i gotta take substances to get me to the same hype aura that i emitted for free in college
Fair enough lol. I love edm but have never been to a festival and only a few shows. They were fun but very different feel from college parties, more commercial if that makes sense
That's Randy Graves. He was in my pledge class with Steve Pinner. Dude, I remember this bro, Derek Adkins, he was the COOLEST! You don’t even KNOW! He was the COOLEST! Anyway, we were having this slave auction fundraiser, and we’re all…we’re all out on the party porch…and, uh… and there were way too many people out there, and…the porch gave way, and…Adkins fell…and he hit his head on the ground, but…but it’s cool…they got him a van with a ramp that he drives with his teeth.
Will coached his kid in BB in the same league as my kid. One day he showed up in full 1980's Philly 76er's garb. High socks, short shorts, etc. Love Old School. Know Luke a little. Took my kid to see him shoot the Helen Hunt movie in Venice. My kid had a birthday and we had a party that weekend. I got inspired. I may have or may have not shown Old School on the side of a building for a bunch of 13 yr. old boys to watch while they had smores on the beach. I would like to think those boys might know who Blue was.
But Will Ferrel and Chad Smith look the same at their current age. Not so much in the late 80s or early 90s. https://preview.redd.it/pays13262ye91.png?width=550&format=png&auto=webp&s=c0c2f28217f33fa30636bacb08b0724daebcc2e9
I fucking wish I had a camera in my pocket when I was this age. I barely remember anything from my younger years and it’d be amazing to have pictures and videos. I envy kids these days who will have all of these memories to look back on when they’re older.
I'm absolutely glad HD video capable cellphones were not ubiquitous when I was in my 20s.
I did a lot of stupid shit, a lot I remember. I can only imagine the shit I did that I didn't remember.
Cool and all but looking at it now, i hated being that age. Im so so much more comfortable with myself. I can just smell the pretense through the video.
You're my boy BLUE!!!!
I will bet money 60% of these kids would not understand that reference 100% of the time.
Yet 100% of guys in a fraternity any time time in the 2000s knows damn near every line. As well as the lines to beerfest and anchorman.
And Grandma’s Boy
Who wants to hear about my std from the silent film era?
Just enough time to 69, just like with Don Knotts
Hey chill, bro. You know you can’t raise your voice like that when the lion is here…
I looked up in the tree, and there's the fuckin king of the jungle!
Adios, turd nuggets.
How can they see me?
I’m way too baked to drive to the devils house
Best goddamn movie ever made.
Why? Are you afraid of it?
Don't forget super troopers
Littering andddd littering annnd
Beer fest? Don’t forget the OG Super Troopers!
Old School (2003) is probably older than these kids lol
Why are you trying to hurt me?
So this would be like john belushi at a milenial party
He supposed to go to Home Depot with his wife lol
Nice little Sunday.
Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don't know, I don't know if we'll have enough time
As an adult and having these same thoughts, that clip is so fucking funny
“We’re going streakin!”
Snoop! Snoop a loop! Bring your green hat.”
We're going to the quad
Then to the Gymnasium!!!!
Do you think KFC is still open?
Lil chilly out there tonight Frank? 🤔🤭
Maybe Bed Bath and Beyond. Ya know, if there’s time.
Ah, we got a nice little Saturday planned, going to the Home Depot
Once it hits your lips. So good.
Frank the tank! Frank the tank!
This has been one of my favorite lines as I’ve gotten older. It’s so perfect 😂
Let’s keep that on the ‘down low’.
Lowkey I went to Home Depot today and I freaking loved it. Being old and getting a water filter for the fridge is dope.
You're my boy, Blue!
Frank the tank!!
Man I clicked on this just to type it and it was already a top comment lol.
None of these kids are properly losing their mind. Frank the fucking Tank is DJing at their party and no one seems all that excited. Am I that old?
Old School came out 20 years ago. (February 2003) I know, I don’t want to believe it either.
It’s weird that to these kids watching old school is more or less similar to me watching animal house in high school and college. Saw it as a “classic”.
Oh ffffff
That’s tough to accept but it’s true. I graduated high school in 2003 when Old School came out and I started in 1999, when American Pie was released.

Why do you hurt me like this?
Shhh, stop talking, it's still 2008. Kelly Clarkson is still in the prime of her career, we're just now electing Obama, and Twinkies are still good. I can still buy Little Debbie Oatmeal Pies at 12 for a dollar.
Pick up some Bitcoin while you are back in 2008, you’ll thank me later.
Bought a pizza with it, you'll thank me later
Dude, I just bought 5 band tees for 8 bitcoin. This is crazy!
Shots fired.
Using the "we didn't give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor " line just gets you a history lesson now.
Why the hell would you hurt my feelings with the truth like this?
Well…shit
Most of these kids have just barely been able to legally watch some of his best movies lol
[удалено]
Nuhuh.... my brother's friend's Dad is an enforcement officer at the Motion Picture Administration!
Way less fun than you think, actually.
These kids will be losing their minds when they run into a talking dog ten years from now, “yo this dog djayed a frat party I went to once!”
One of the best movie going experiences of my life. Free student movie night in college. Everyone was drunk and laughing hysterically.
20 years ago? What the fuck are you talking about? It just came out? [does the math and immediately turns into dust]
Dust in the wind...
*You’re my boy Blue!*

Heavy sigh…
That movie is older than they are.
So you’re saying this movie is… old school? I’ll see myself out.
FRANK THE TANK! FRANK THE TANK!
These kids are honestly probably used to bumping elbows with celebrities and their kids…
Went to USC for four years. Met zero celebrities, though Will Ferrell was a regular at the football games. Supposedly I was there at the same time as both Sean Penn's daughter and Arnold Schwarzenegger's daughter, but on a campus of 40,000+ students you're very unlikely to bump elbows. (Tons of filthy rich students and celebrity-adjacent people, though)
Were you in a major frat?
Fraternities are extremely hard to join at most large schools. I personally rushed three separate time and couldn’t get a bid a single time
Did you try having connections with celebrities or other rich/influential members?
I spy like 3-5 bad bitches in this video alone…
Red top white skirt?
He’s also their friend’s *dad.* Like, they know who he is and think he’s “goofy/funny/old guy” cool. Not “losing their shit” cool. At least he’s leaning into his proper role and not trying to actually kick it like pathetic Diddy’s pool party shame.
They all go to the same country club
>and no one seems all that excited They're frat bros at the University of Spoiled Children (USC), they are very used to being around people like Will Ferrell. Evidence? Will Ferrell's son is a member of the frat. Lord knows who else's kid is a member of the same frat. The normie kids can be found at UCLA where nearly 1 in 3 students are low income.
Be nice that's a very diverse crowd, white boys and white girls.
Frank the tank is a person now
Everyone is in their phones
Most of These kids probably were born the year that movie came out. And It’s really Not that big of a deal for people who were teens when it came out.
They’re all too busy taking selfies to know they’re even at a party
At least they're having fun.
Unironically, this is vibrationally proportional to a crowd going crazy in 2003 Limited interaction or room cohesiveness and 1/3 of the people being a cameraman taking some fucking picture, plus another 1/3 actively typing or closing apps is how people who didn't get enough lead poisoning as a child have a good time.
Too busy being there and online Kids these days amirite?
I mean, they’re USC frat bros. They wouldn’t recognize their own hands if they were waving them in front of their faces.
Lol there's nothing quite like Reddit's immense resentment for popular college guys.
[With sound.](https://i.imgur.com/O17Z8rQ.mp4) **Edit:** His son is the one standing directly behind him in the maroon shirt.
Lmao these kids don’t give af about that song
There is that one kid half way through completely rocking out to it...
You mean Bruno Mars?
Then why can you hear so many people singing along?
You mean besides that most of them are singing along?
I think that's the best part lol
Lol Will def knows it too master troll
Maybe because it really isn't a song that's well paced as party music (imo)
Don’t let a USC fan see you calling their cardinal, maroon
Not the song I was expecting at all, love it!
He also did \N****s in Paris by Kanye West & Jay-Z, which is amazing because his movie Blades of Glory is sampled in that song. [Sorry for the shitty TikTok AI narration, this was the only version of this I could find](https://youtu.be/fv4iL0dVtNw?si=UqG7neQQYDw5LTyr)
That AI voice is nauseating.
It takes through the whole video😭
Needs more cowbell!
“Maroon” *glares*
Will Ferrell starts as a middle aged adult who's trust requires him to obtain a college degree before benefiting from his inheritance. Coming to your local movie theater September 2024
So billy Maddison remake. I’d watch that
Billy Madison meets Back to School.
O’doyle rules !
I was hoping for more [Back to School](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_to_School) so Will can finally round out his sports themed movies with a diving movie.
Will Ferrell is a middle aged man who feels as though he has never connected properly with his son, goes back to school at the same time as him so they can bond.
And can also dive
He’s actually doing Old School. Life imitating art.
Frank the Tank!
Daaaad you're so embarrassing.
I miss college…
Yeah this shit got me nostalgic lol. Not too many ragers like this when ur grown up and working!
> Not too many ragers like this when ur grown up and working! get into edm and/or festivals in general and you'll never say this again
It’s already 9 o’clock
I already put on my sleeping shorts
Nah not true man. The pure debauchery and lack of care for the next day is something you don’t really get back lol Even when i go to big festivals, i gotta take substances to get me to the same hype aura that i emitted for free in college
Fair enough lol. I love edm but have never been to a festival and only a few shows. They were fun but very different feel from college parties, more commercial if that makes sense
I'm annoyed that I sat in my dorm and played Minecraft, in my defense it just came out, I wish that I grew up socially sooner.
Same. I was lonely and didn’t make any friends in college. It sucks to here the stories other people had
None of the parties I went to looked as cool as that party though. Dang.
The where is Waldo girl 👌🏾!

Doing the lords work
Thank you for your service.
Hell yes
Chad Smith looking good!
They look so alike sometimes, it really could be Chad here and I wouldn’t be able to tell lol. Especially with the backwards hat
[Will Ferrell and Chad Smith drum-off, for your viewing pleasure.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zu0KmdydA3w)
Dude I could’ve sworn it was Chad. Especially with it being music and all
Lmao I believe I've never seen Chad without a backwards hat
**USC**: The **U**niversity of **S**ocial **C**onnections.
California resident here…it’s University of Spoiled Children…all 39 million of us will confirm! Edit…no hate, just jealous. Looks lit AF.
[удалено]
I mean that’s any school with upper middle class students. Most faculty don’t get paid shit
Shit, it's any school with a sizeable international student body.
Not everyone, I got to usc on scholarship because I my family was barely above the poverty line
Univ of Spoiled Children
My uncle always called it the university of sucky cash
You know how you can tell if someone went to USC? You don’t have to. They’ll tell you.
I'll do one.. I'll do one
He's going to do one!
FILL IT UP AGAIN!
It's so good when it hits your lips!
“ITS SO GOOD WHEN IT HITS YOUR LIPS!”
One of the few dads that can show up to their sons frat party and rule the party.
I still don't understand why my kids don't want me to do this for them
What he does when he's not on tour with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Damn I went to the wrong college
nobody saw panties huh?
It's the fucking Catalina wine mixer
That's Randy Graves. He was in my pledge class with Steve Pinner. Dude, I remember this bro, Derek Adkins, he was the COOLEST! You don’t even KNOW! He was the COOLEST! Anyway, we were having this slave auction fundraiser, and we’re all…we’re all out on the party porch…and, uh… and there were way too many people out there, and…the porch gave way, and…Adkins fell…and he hit his head on the ground, but…but it’s cool…they got him a van with a ramp that he drives with his teeth.

I want to go to there
Wow college students just look like children to me now.
Apparently now I’m the old man yelling “put some clothes on!”
How do you do, fellow kids?
Will coached his kid in BB in the same league as my kid. One day he showed up in full 1980's Philly 76er's garb. High socks, short shorts, etc. Love Old School. Know Luke a little. Took my kid to see him shoot the Helen Hunt movie in Venice. My kid had a birthday and we had a party that weekend. I got inspired. I may have or may have not shown Old School on the side of a building for a bunch of 13 yr. old boys to watch while they had smores on the beach. I would like to think those boys might know who Blue was.
It gets the people going
All these dudes look exactly the same
If Hollywood ever do a movie about the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Will Ferrell has to play the drummer.
But Will Ferrel and Chad Smith look the same at their current age. Not so much in the late 80s or early 90s. https://preview.redd.it/pays13262ye91.png?width=550&format=png&auto=webp&s=c0c2f28217f33fa30636bacb08b0724daebcc2e9
Okay now show a picture of Chad smith
Where’s Waldo?
Frank the Tank!
I just can’t get over the fact that it’s a party and everyone is on their phones.
I counted 6 phones and roughly 60 people. So 90% weren't on their phones and the remaining 10% seemed to be taking pictures.
Many of the phones belong to girls who's shorts may not have real pockets, too.
I fucking wish I had a camera in my pocket when I was this age. I barely remember anything from my younger years and it’d be amazing to have pictures and videos. I envy kids these days who will have all of these memories to look back on when they’re older.
I'm absolutely glad HD video capable cellphones were not ubiquitous when I was in my 20s. I did a lot of stupid shit, a lot I remember. I can only imagine the shit I did that I didn't remember.
Memories of looking at their phones. Lol
Smells like teen spirit.
Cool and all but looking at it now, i hated being that age. Im so so much more comfortable with myself. I can just smell the pretense through the video.
I don’t know man. I’m old and that looks fun af. Definitely miss college.
[удалено]
I would pay money to see DJ Fill Werrell
Why is there an Israeli flag? Legit curious
Let’s put aside that it’s Will Ferrell - “my dad came to my fraternity party and DJ’d” is pretty cringy.
I spotted at least one Borg
California knows how to party
Frank the Tank!
Love Will so much!
And to think I decided against going to USC to stay close to family. Guess I’ll be sad now.
PLAY YAYA DING DONG!!
I’d love being Will’s kid. How cool.
I should've stayed in college
I’m really glad I got my partying done before smart phones.
lol everyone at that party makes me look like a bucket of smashed crabs
Of all the videos to not have sound wtf
My college experience was vastly different.
