The 1981 film Stripes staring characters like Bill Murray and John Candy is a good old fashion guy humor. Like the movie Caddy Shack. The plot is based around John and his chance to regain his life by joining the military to get himself on track. The platoons characters cover a gamut of personalities from all walks of life. In both films Bill's character was the comic relief to a normal everyday situation. Bill's role in Caddy Shack is more of a dumb free minded character while in Stripes his humor makes him more of an approachable leader in the platoon. The general humor used in both is the same but the way it is applied in Stripes seems to be a more sophisticated and composed like the Military.
