Once again, Hooksexup has a jam-packed Film Issue for your delectation, and we'll be highlighting its features as they go up. (We missed Sarah Hepola's piece yesterday on Fast Times at Ridgemont High, but you shouldn't.) Today, Will Doig confesses his addiction to lousy '80s comedies, and explains how it alienates his dates:
My affection for these films stuck all the way through college. As my friends were turning to Bertolucci and Kurasawa, and getting high while watching 2001, I was getting stoned by myself and watching Collision Course, the story of two mismatched cops (Jay Leno and Pat Morita) who are made partners to hilarious effect. I'd sneak out of Hollywood Video with Brain Donors shoved deep into my messenger bag and hide it in my nightstand under the porn. I never dared let a crush see my stash of shame.
