Lewis Skolnick
In Revenge of the Nerds, Lewis Skolnick (Robert Carradine) is comfortable with being a nerd. In fact, the computer science geek shamelessly embraces every stereotype imaginable from wayfarer eyeglasses to pocket protectors. He doesn’t even have to worry about getting wedgies from the jocks. His pants are already pulled up as high as they can go.
Henry Jones Sr
In Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Henry Jones Sr. (Sean Conner) is the estranged father of Indiana Jones. He’s a professor like his son, only much more absent minded.
Peter Quill / Star-Lord
In Guardians of the Galaxy, Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) is abducted as a kid by a group of space smugglers. All grown up, he spends his time scoring jobs, hooking up with hot alien girls, and just being a rogue, until he finds a higher calling in life as Star-Lord.
Carey Mahoney
Carey Mahoney (Steve Guttenberg) is a repeat offender who’s forced to join the police academy as punishment in the Police Academy film series. Though he mostly wears a police uniform, his first outfit is quite memorable, especially the short shorts.
John “Bluto” Blutarsky
John “Bluto” Blutarsky (John Belushi) plays a drunk, seventh year college student in National Lampoon’s Animal House. He’s famous for his impersonation of a popped zit but despite his antics he somehow ends up as a U.S. Senator.
Quicksilver
In X-Men: Days of Future Past, speed is the name of the game for Quicksilver (Evan Peters). With the ability to move faster than sound, he’s spent a good part of his teen years as a petty thief. That is until he’s called to a greater cause – one to help the X-Men.
David Wooderson
David Wooderson (Matthew McConaughey) is a 20-something-year-old who still hangs out with high schoolers in Dazed and Confused. But for him that’s “alright, alright, alright” because even though he gets older, the high school girls stay the same age.
Mr. Larson from Happy Gilmore
Mr. Larson (Richard Kiel) is an imposing character in Happy Gilmore not only because of his threatening T-shirts but also because of his ability to bend golf clubs with his bare hands. So Shooter McGavin shouldn’t take his threats idly especially when Mr. Larson tells him that “you can count on me waiting for you in the parking lot.”
