- Quotes
Paris Morgan: You know, Al. There's something we've been avoiding all day. Something I think maybe we oughta do.
Alvin Johnson: I think you're right. This may sound kinda silly. How do we do it?
Paris Morgan: [laughs] Well... just go for it. Ya know?
[they turn and look at each other, Paris expecting Al to kiss her]
Alvin Johnson: We'll break up first thing tomorrow morning in the hallway, so everyone can see. I mean make a big scene, but a dignified scene 'cause you know we got to protect our reps.

If you did, then there's a chance you had to suffer through quite a few 80's films.. Or rather, it felt like you were being made to suffer, way back when.
We're a little older now, maybe more mature and hopefully a little more open to rediscovering the 80's.
"Can't Buy Me Love" is an 80's masterpiece I still enjoy today. Dempsey's nasal sonnets, his little brother's hustles and their parents' 30-something attitude to everything are classic. Ranked up there with "Weird Science", "Real Genius" and "Raising Arizona", the original tested the times while paving new ground.
"Love Don't Cost A Thing" is a paycheck for the producers whose idea of a good time must be making K-Mart xerox copies of ideas they wished they had first.
If they have a Triple-Gold Globe Awards for the likes of Master P and Snoop's acting quality, I'll make sure to steal a cell phone and call the 900 number that gives your ghetto fabulous trash 5 Bling-Blings and two slaps across your face on GP, Uuuugh.
This 'Movie' is hard to flush, let alone swallow.
