Who's Overshadowing Kevin Bacon Now?

The Movie: National Lampoon's Animal House (1978)
The Role: Chip, the frat boy from Omega House who yells "Thank you sir! May I have another?" as he's paddled.
The Real Star: Bacon plays a small but funny part in his debut film. Still, he's all-but-forgotten next to John Belushi who set a new standard for raunchy humor and opened the door for frat comedies like PCU (1994) and Old School (2003).
