Take great music, great clothing, 90 minutes of pop cultures refences from a truely great decade the 1980s and one of the coolest cameos of all time from Billy Idol  and you have Frank Coraci’s the Wedding Singer.

What makes the Wedding Singer worth watching you may ask? Well it’s the characters in the first scene the audience is introducted to a character named George played by Alexis Arquette this character is in the same band as Robbie and is dressed like Boy George from  Culture Club and the only song he can sing is “Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?” Another character that bring several laughs to several scenes is Robbies best friend Sammy. The clothing that he wears simply brings back  so many memories from the 80s. Christine Taylor’s character Holly Sullivan looks like Maddona and it’s great the last character that completes the film is Glen the man who is obsessed with the television show ”Miami Vice” everything from the cloths that he wears to the music that he listens to in his Delorin.
