This was thee movie to see when a teenager in the 80s. Man, we knew every line. What a classic, im 55 now and could still talk about some of those scenes
You all left his best scene when Mr. Hand came to his house to study on Spicoli's time. The look on Spicoli's face when Mr. Hand pulled an extra school book. hilarious
What Jefferson was saying was we left this England place cause it was bogus so if we don't get some cool rules ourselves pronto we'll just be bogus too 😂😂
just because someone is a stoner doesnt make them an idiot .. look at when Mr Hand comes to Spicoli's house.. Spicoli learns and understands everything Mr Hand teaches him .. he's not stupid .. he just doesnt care about the things he cant change or affect and cares about living simply .. like he said "choice waves and a cool buzz" he would be just as happy living in a mansion or in a RV van parked on the beach ... seriously bro realizes that mo money mo problems .. so he lives simply and is happy with that and not playing the rat race game of keeping up with everyone else .. he is the smartest character in the entire movie ... *edit* i am on drugs while wrote this .. smoking weed and on some valiums ... so the fact that i am "stoned" and have more insight into the character known as Spicoli than you shows that ... just because you are a stoner doesnt mean you are an idiot..
the character mr hand was teacher of the decade...mr hand took time out his personal time to make sure a student would pass his class...mr hand does not get enough credit for this....
Oddly teachers used to be much more like this. Yes , I have often heard of them showing up randomly at students houses for a variety of reasons. One of them to make sure lagging students catch up . We are so disconnected today . Now they charge you for that and call it tutoring.
76' Here with the only difference Spicoli didn't smoke as much as we did. We used to get high on the way to school just to decide if we wanted to get high. The High School I attended seemed to be oblivious to everyone smoking in the courtyard...They just wanted it outside to protect the bathrooms.
@@davejohn255 81' Here. Man are you RIGHT. Back then, students at my H.S. were ALLOWED to smoke cigarettes but only outside on the courtyard! Yeah, we were smoking cigarettes alright...lol Half the school was high as hell after lunch! There was no thuggery, no guns, no killings. Maybe a few scores were settled after school but most of us were cool as hell. Good times!
@@asmuklerYes!! Actually that was my favorite Sean Penn scene in the movie. My all time favorite scene however is when Brad flipped out on the angry customer at All American Burger and says, “Mister if you don’t SHUT UP, I’m gonna kick 100 percent of YOUR ASS!!!”
Don't forget this movie produced 3 future Oscar Winners all for Best Actors. Nicholas Cage for Leaving Las Vegas 1995, Sean Penn Mystic River 2003, & Milk 2008, and Forrest Whitaker The Last King of Scotland 2006.
Camron Crowe did a fantastic job researching this with real-life students in a California high school for his book, Fast Times At Ridgemont High, which was made into the movie. The characters in the book were based on actual students that Crowe met at Clairemont High School in San Diego. He talked to the Principal to get permission for his adventure and went undercover for a year. Crowe was an adult at the time but he looked much younger and was able to pass as a student. On a personal note, this was exactly how it was for me at my high school all the way across the country in the small town of Owensboro, KY. My brother was caught smoking pot at school, I was Jennifer Jason Leigh's character, experimenting with the adult world. No, we didn't have an ocean close by but we had skateboards, and bicycles as transportation until we got a car. Kids have it harder in school now than they did back then. Good Times, fast times!
@@finddeniro I know, I'm just saying he was ahead of his time, because teenagers these days sometimes order a pizza during school time, and I think I saw someone call for one
In the commentary for the DVD (what's a DVD, grandma?), Cameron Crowe said that it wasn't Spicoli who ordered the pizza, it was Rat. But the moviemakers changed it because it worked better for Spicoli's character in the film.
Sean Penn has two Oscars -- back in the day, would you have believed someone who predicted that someday, the actor playing Spicoli will have two Oscars for Best Actor?
mr hand should have been teacher of the year.....mr hand takes time from his personal life to go to a student's house and teach the student so the student can pass the class....not many teachers will do that....
Classic movie. I have several ties to. Had 11th grade history with Sean at Santa Monica H S 1977. The mall where some characters worked i worked there as well managing Vinces pet store just a few doots to tje right of the movie theater where Mark Ratner worked which was the Sherman Oaks Galleria mall of hollywood celebs. In high school, Sean was a straight A clean cut kid from Malibu and played on the tennis team. We both surfed, but i dont recall ever seeing him in the water. His younger brother, another great actor, died decades ago.
Did you know my wife then Sandra Rosenfeld she went to Samohi and Malibu Park Jr High where Penn was class President or something like that.She went to school with many children who followed their show biz parents in to that field.
My art teacher always let us go across the street to get food if you offered to get him something. A lot of the time, when whoever was going to wherever would just ask everyone before class what they wanted and called in the order for the whole class. I am a terrible artist, but I loved my art classes the most! When I was a sophomore, I got to take the hottest senior girl to her prom because I sat next to her in art class. When I was a senior, I again got to go to prom with the hottest girl in my class because we sat next to each other in class, and we started dating. I always thought people who said their high school days were the best time in their life were idiots, but they really were some of the best times in your life!
My favorite was: Relax, my dads a TV repairman. He has an ultimate set of tools.. I can fix it. Oh, and when Phoebe Cates getting out of the pool on slo-mo... But that's just me.. This has to be a top 10 movie of all time
I remember renting Fast Times when it was on VHS the nude pool seen on the tape was stretched out you could not even watch it lol. Best movie ever good memories.
I have the image of Phoebe Cates burned inside my brain that is triggered by the Cars Moving In Stereo. I saw this movie when I was 18, I’m 60 as of this posting.
Did the same to True Lies vhs. The VCR made crying wails as it proceeded to play the scene in the hotel. Tracking feature couldnt do anything to help. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm 56 years old and remember this coming on HBO one night at home when I was 14 or 15 years old. My mom made me and my friend leave the room because it was a rated R movie. It was dark so we watched the whole thing from the other side of the window outside without being seen. It was much better the second time I watched it. I had audio 😂
I was stoner and a surfer when I was younger… now I’m just an old surfer… still haven’t grown up… my wife is blessed with two children, our daughter and me 🏄🏼♂️🎣🏋🏼🏖️
“Knarly”🙈 Too bad Penn spent the rest of his career trying to escape being typecast as Spicoli when he should have run w it…He’s still a hero to some people 40 years later and Penn is just a dickk in real life….Perfect actor for a part and he threw it away..
This was thee movie to see when a teenager in the 80s. Man, we knew every line. What a classic, im 55 now and could still talk about some of those scenes
Phoebe Cates' breasticles....So choice!
How Cool for Ya!
Yep, especially the carrot scene.
(And where in the heck did time go? I was 13 when this came out, and now we're the same age)
I use a line from this movie almost daily.
I saw this movie when I was 20. What a classic!
You all left his best scene when Mr. Hand came to his house to study on Spicoli's time. The look on Spicoli's face when Mr. Hand pulled an extra school book. hilarious
Also left out scene where he wrecked Jefferson’s car.
@@shortytari Also the scene were Mr. Hand ripped up his add card.
@@dennissuding4452his dad’s a tv repair man, he has an awesome set of tools…
Too many titties all over his wall.
What Jefferson was saying was we left this England place cause it was bogus so if we don't get some cool rules ourselves pronto we'll just be bogus too 😂😂
The irony of my life: I used to be Spicoli. Then suddenly I became Mr. Hand.
same here... !
Happens to everyone
i stayed Spicoli ... going on 45 years now man ... i wouldnt change for anything
It's called growing up, dude. A middle-aged Spicoli would be insufferable.
Brilliant!
"Y'know, I've been thinking about this, Mr. Hand. If I'm here and you're here, doesn't that make it our time?"😂😂😂
The way Spicoli smiled when Mr Hand saw him in class and on time, Lol, only there because he ordered a pizza
Jeff’s ready for school dude…
Even though spicoli was supposed to be the idiot, blaming the car accident on a rival school was actually brilliant.
After wrecking the car he told his buddy he could fix it. Said his dad was a tv repair man and he has an awesome set of tools ! LOL !
@@Taticakuasranyou can’t fix this car Spicoli! Jeff gets out and looks at the damage, then says “I can fix it!” 🤣😂🤣
just because someone is a stoner doesnt make them an idiot .. look at when Mr Hand comes to Spicoli's house.. Spicoli learns and understands everything Mr Hand teaches him .. he's not stupid .. he just doesnt care about the things he cant change or affect and cares about living simply .. like he said "choice waves and a cool buzz" he would be just as happy living in a mansion or in a RV van parked on the beach ... seriously bro realizes that mo money mo problems .. so he lives simply and is happy with that and not playing the rat race game of keeping up with everyone else .. he is the smartest character in the entire movie ...
*edit*
i am on drugs while wrote this .. smoking weed and on some valiums ... so the fact that i am "stoned" and have more insight into the character known as Spicoli than you shows that ... just because you are a stoner doesnt mean you are an idiot..
he didn't take his own advice....."people on ludes should not drive."
@@dannyzuehlsdorf3697 I don’t think he was on ludes, but he was definitely stoned on something!!

Class of 82 here. Yep. NAILED it! The Volkswagen van scene....that was ME and my stoner buddies...lol Bitchin!
@@budb.8560Class of 86. No pizza 🍕 but I remember an Italian lad in our class making a female teacher VERY uncomfortable! 😅

Spicoli for president. He can fix it
He would be a hell of a lot better than Trump but that's not saying much a baboon or an ape would be better than Trump
Vast improvement over creepy young goil hair smelling dementia Joe.
His campaign logo would read - “ I can fix it “ .
@@sergiocalcio9481 Tasty Waves Of Supporters and A Cool Buzz At The Poles, I Can Fix It- Jeffrey Lincoln Spicoli.
He can fix it because his dad's a TV repairman and has a gnarly set of tools.
When High School football games were great
"Learnin' about Cuba, havin' some food."
Yeah nowdays they teach students how great Cuba was.
Rollin' to England, Jammin' with the Stones.
🤣🤣That is So Awesome 🤣🤣
😂😂
That last scene in this clip was my favorite then and now ..
"Awesome. Totally Awesome. Alright Hamilton!"
Spicoli's face when Mr. Hand eats his pizza will forever be in my head.
They were skimpy on the sausage though.
That scene is an all time classic.
@@asmuklerYes!! Actually that was my favorite Sean Penn scene in the movie. My all time favorite scene however is when Brad flipped out on the angry customer at All American Burger and says, “Mister if you don’t SHUT UP, I’m gonna kick 100 percent of YOUR ASS!!!”
No way that was a double cheese and sausage pizza!
@@sarasmith9450 I hope you had a hell of a piss Arnold!
"Awesome, totally awesome"
the way spicoli falls out of the van,HAHAHAHAHA
OG hot boxers
The number of actors that went on to some level of fame from this movie. Great.
Don't forget this movie produced 3 future Oscar Winners all for Best Actors. Nicholas Cage for Leaving Las Vegas 1995, Sean Penn Mystic River 2003, & Milk 2008, and Forrest Whitaker The Last King of Scotland 2006.
44 years later, look at the cast in this movie. I wonder if they knew back then what an incredible bunch of stars they had gotten together.
Oh to be a young man in the 80s and to watch the pool scene! 😂
Every time I hear that Cars song I also envision Phoebe Cates topless!!
Phoebe Cates was SPECIAL. What a beauty!

When Spicoli ordered the pizza, he was way ahead of his time.
He didn't get Any..

I never had the DVD to it
Love this movie 🎥😍 Spicoli is the best! I own it now i must watch it again 😂😅
I’m 58 and saw this in the theater. The Phoebe Cates moment will never be forgotten
booooooooooiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnngggggg heh heh heh boooooiiiiinnnnnngggggg
Me too. I was 16, the lady at the ticket booth asked how old I was, I lied and said 17. I was a few months away from it.
I was 10 when this movie came out, and my own daughter is now about the same age as Vince Schiavelli was in this movie
Yeah me too
I'm sure I don't know what you mean
Jeff Spicoli and Mr Hand = Movie Magic.
One of the great ones
2 Academy Award winners were in this movie... Forrest Whitaker and Sean Penn
3, also Nicolas Cage 1:48.
Sean Penn has two Oscars -- back in the day, would you have believed someone who predicted that someday, the actor playing Spicoli will have two Oscars for Best Actor?
@@DK-jy4jband married to Madonna
Didn’t Eric Stoltz win one for Mask as well?
@@BenvolioCapulet9 He was only nominated for a Golden Globe but didn't win that either.
Ray Walston (Mr Hand) said that Sean Penn (Spicoli) was frightening in his intensity as an actor and stayed in character constantly)
That is Buggs Bunny level cunning to take a car you wrecked and turn it into motivation for a football player.
Alright Hamilton
Dang. I forgot so much about this movie. Forest Whittaker *and* Nicholas Cage!
And Anthony Edwards
@@jessicae.s.340 And Eric Stoltz.
Jennifer Jason Leigh
@@100hooker Dang! The Cavalcade of Future Stars Edition.
That one teacher played a patient in One flew over the cuckoos nest.
This movie is legendary! All of these nascent actors goin on to become iconic household names.
"all i need are som tasty waves and some cool buds and im fine..." words to live by. 🤣
Is it Cool buds or Cool Buzz?
Lol
Yet another great scene they skipped.
For every stoner surfer in the 80's.
He just forgot to mention to add some sweet tang too......
I've watched this movie a thousand times, and I never noticed at 2:29 when DiMone throws the popcorn and a piece lands in the other guy's mouth.
Never understood why Penn never did any more comedy, he was brilliant
Check out Sweet and Lowdown.
Madonna ruined him
Winning Oscars was more important to him.
He did not want to be typecast as playing the airhead goofy doofus. He wanted to be taken seriously as an actor.
@@shelleyinthecity I hope he appreciates irony.
spicoli's greatest moments...so every scene then...
My school: Patrick Henry HS in San Diego, CA was exactly like Ridgmont HS in this movie! I graduated 1978.
Dyuuude. Lost Angeles '76. Same people exactly.
Mission Bay 1993, read somewhere that was inspired by Clairemont High.
Cameron Crowe did grow up in San Diego so…
mr hand should have been teacher of the year.....mr hand takes time from his personal life to go to a student's house and teach the student so the student can pass the class....not many teachers will do that....

Tarantino knew what he was doing when he cast Stoltz as the dealer. Full circle
Sean Penn said in an interview once that he based Spicoli on real person that he knew.
I saw that on Letterman and he actually ran into the guy later on in life. I think he said he saw him at the beach
@@100hooker There is a clip from the Conan show on You Tube that`s where I saw it.
That’s right.
Omg I love that movie it will always be a classic!! Why don't they make movies like this anymore?? 🙄
Without a doubt, Sean Penn should have won an Oscar for this role. He’s the polar opposite in real life. Love this character and the actor. 💕💕💕

Anyone remember a TV show called my favorite Martian ? Mr.Hand played the Martian. Spicoli never gets old to watch
LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!! I STILL WATCH IT TOO HAVE THE DVD🤩❤👍👍👏👏
This movie has so many known actors, I had no idea, I need to watch it again
Sean Penn is a huge Hollywood star actor now a days
The absolute quintessential 80s movie...❤❤❤

Future Academy Award Winning Actors in this unlikely 80s teen classic
I love this movie 🎥! That's my skull! Classic! Was my introduction to the great acting of Sean Penn!
5:06 Spicoli getting seriously concerned as he asks "doesn't that stuff cause brain damage?" That always makes me laugh hard
A legendary high school comedy and totally hilarious 😂😂😂😂😆😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Every spicoli moment is the greatest moment
I was just gonna say that!! 😎🤙
Sean Penn's most beloved character
Nice to see Eric Stoltz at the beginning of his career. Appreciation for Ray Walston too. Forest Whitaker was a football player around that time.
Imagine if he didn't have such fast reflexes.
Tasty Waves and a Cool buzz..
I love how State Penn looked like an absolute alien when he was young and grew up so handsome
Last scene : Awesome 😂
1:48 Nick Cage doing extra work
Good eye. I was just about to timestamp it myself for the kids.
Every single scene with Spicoli is a greatest moment. I'm not even exaggerating.
0:47 this part still makes me bust out laughing
Mark "Cut Back" Davis or Bob "Jungle Death" Gerard
All the future stars. Eric Stoltz, Anthony Edwards, Forest Whitaker, Judge Reinhold, Phoebe Kate's, Nickolas Cage...
Classic 80’s movie.
Dude I had that same poncho as a kid in the 80’s. Got it at Zodys 😂
Spiccoli at 5:47 looking to the side with the wheels grinding out if he has enough money just kills me.
Him pulling that one hair out as well
I’ve got this movie in my phone’s playlist.
Every opportunity I get, I'll be watching FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH😂😂😂😂
The amount of future stars is unfuckingblievable. Even an actor in Pulp Fiction!
This was the peak Sean Penn’s career.
You have never seen this movie. You left out the best line in the whole movie, you know tv repairman
Learning about Cuba & having some food 😂😂😂😂
Not a big Sean Penn fan but man, he nailed this one!
Right here Dude!…the iconic comment of the 80’s
If that happened today, the employee would go to jail and the thief would become the victim😮
dont ruin the vibe with the grumpy old man routine

Crazy I was like Mr Hand and now I have become Spicoli. Haven’t hired Van Halen yet, but I have thought about it.RIP Eddie.
GREAT FRIGGIN MOVIE!!!! Love Judge Reinhold and SPICOLI!!!!!😎😎😎😎😎😎
Mr. Pizza Guy was the pizza delivery guy in other films too.

Exactly. Eric Stoltz. The other guy at the table is Anthony Edwards aka Goose in Top Gun.
Always keep a pot of hot coffee next to your safe

Sean Penn is perhaps the greatest living film actor in America. I'm not kidding.

Too bad Penn spent the rest of his career trying to escape being typecast as Spicoli when he should have run w it…He’s still a hero to some people 40 years later and Penn is just a dickk in real life….Perfect actor for a part and he threw it away..
