Ryan Reynolds would probably put that in my "don't want to watch" column. Meh.


Its one of the better comedies of the 00s. Especially if youve ever worked in the food service industry

Ryan Renolds was thr big ticket name but he was hardly the focal point. His character is more like Van Wilder than he is in his more shitty roles. Dont tell me you havent seen Van Wilder

Forgot about Sandra Bullock. Two Weeks Notice is possibly my favorite chick flick of all time.

Because I already watched and enjoyed the original Animal House?

(On a completely unrelated note, I love Old School, but, then again, I like Ferrell, Luke Wilson, Vaughn, etc. I don't like the actors featured in Van Wilder. Sometimes, I watch things despite the fact that Tara Reid is in them, not because of it, for example.)

I never watched the show Whitney, but I never laughed at the commercials so I doubt I'd like it. Also looks like she's a writer for Two Broke Girls, so I'm not a fan

Megan Amram, a writer for Parks and Rec is pretty hilarious. One of the best follows on twitter.

Whitney Cummings created Two Broke Girls. Not sure if she still writes for it.

Amram is hysterical. She wrote last night's Parks & Rec.

Of course it doesn't.

This is from a positive review of the film:

quote:

An obvious attempt to bring that immortal Lampoon classic, "Animal House", into the 21st Century, this is the tale, or shall we say, saga, of Van Wilder, big man on Coolidge College campus - albeit for seven years and still 18 credits shy of graduation - with a penchant and talent for parties and party planning, babes, practicing safe sex, parties, wheeling and dealing, parties, and surprisingly, being a philanthropic overall nice guy. His charisma rivals that of his father, played here by that familiar Lampooner Tim Matheson, best known as "Animal House" Delta Rush Chairman, Otter - another smooth, likable, wheeler, dealer and schemer. Wilder is adored and beloved by almost every student on campus, not to mention a few faculty members. His social calendar is such that he requires a personal assistant. Of course, he does have his enemies, the most notable of which are pre-med fraternity boy, Rick, President of the DIK house and economics Professor McDougle.


LINK

It was clearly the intention of the time, from it being under the National Lampoon label, to casting Tim Matheson, *wink*wink*.

Anyway, Ryan Reynolds/Tara Reid - didn't watch and glad.

ETA:

I'll get lambasted, but I think Kristen Wiig is hilarious.

Especially when she's playing the awkward, voice trailing off at the end of every sentence character, as she was in Knocked Up.

Pretty much every line she has in that character makes me LOL.
