The tagline "Score!" comes from which 1998 movie?

The story behind the answer

The tagline “Score!” comes from the 1998 movie A Night at the Roxbury. The comedy stars Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan as Steve and Doug Butabi, two nightclub-loving brothers desperate to get into Los Angeles’s trendiest clubs.

The film grew out of a recurring Saturday Night Live sketch called “The Roxbury Guys.” In both the sketches and the movie, the brothers famously bob their heads to Haddaway’s 1993 Eurodance hit “What Is Love,” which became closely associated with the characters.

A Night at the Roxbury was released in October 1998 and is loosely inspired by the nightlife culture of the era. Its tagline is easy to confuse with the film’s soundtrack-driven identity, but “Score!” is the specific promotional tagline shown on the movie poster. “Score” also fits the brothers’ ongoing attempts to impress women and gain entry to exclusive clubs.
