* Porky's

@RaceBannon is right that it's a clear case of abundance.

I know that other flicks like Porky's and Fast Times have more raunch, but I think Ferris just can't be topped.
 
I concur with Race…my selection was based on my wife’s reaction to me watching Fast Tims many years ago. She walked into the room as it was starting, dropped an “Ugh”, and turned around. Me: “You don’t like this movie?”…Her: “I lived it”…
 
Soooooooo many to choose from.

16 Candles should be top ten.

Long Duk Dong: You beat up my face.

Jake: You grabbed my nuts.

Long Duk Dong: [looks through frosted glass on door] That you?

Jake: Yeah, that me.

Long Duk Dong: [opens door] Oh, so sorry! I thought you my new--new-style American girlfriend.

Pretty in Pink is a bit more moody but fuck the soundtrack is A+.

BTW Valley Girls soundtrack is solid as well.

Re-watched Say Anything the other day. For Seattle shots it was decent. In your eyes @RaceBannon in your eyes.

As others have eluded to:

Red Fucking Dawn

@YellowSnow Ferris Bueller was a close second for me.

On the tits scale Porky's is tops. Nice set of cans in 16 candles too.

3 O'Clock High is a solid option. I think that was filmed at the home of @89ute

Can't Buy Me Love also solid.
 
I will die on this hill, but I believe John Hughes movies killed the true teen sex comedy
Did anyone ever get laid in a John Hughes movie? Probably it. But guys were gettin’ laid in Last American Virgin and Hot Dog!!

The culture changed in the 80s as well

Molly Ringwald says today that filming Breakfast Club made her very uncomfortable and she felt harassed

But the 80s also gave us Cinemax so its cool
