Seeing as so many students are heading off to campus right about now, we thought it was a good time to survey the college movie landscape.

The university is a place of so many emotions: excitement and anxiety for the students, the sweet blend of pride and sadness for parents saying goodbye, so it's no surprise then that college has been a theme for plenty of filmmakers. 

Seeing as so many students are heading off to campus right about now, we thought it was a good time to survey the college movie landscape. So, we invited

in to talk about his favorite college films.

Here are his top four picks:

1. Horse Feathers (1932)

2. Animal House (1978)

3. Back To School (1986)

4. Starter for 10 (2006)
