"I think it was Rob that guessed it with a quote from the movie and a link to Amazon but it's farther back in the replies. The movie was The Adventures of Bob & Doug McKenzie: Strange Brew."

"Not Balls of Fury. Which just happened to be my nickname in high school (not telling why) (j/k). Another clue: Film was released in 1983."
