has anybody seen this movie? It is pretty funny. Based off true events.

The book was really funny...especially the audio version where the real guy is actually telling the story.

I'm a few chapters into the book right now. Plan on finishing it off over the weekend. So far, I'm loving it. Haven't seen the movie, though.

Yeah the movie is nothing like the book. That is why the book is 10xs better. The movie took several of his stories and combined it into one weekend. It did a damn good job of combining those stories because it was freakin hilarious.

good writer? yes

the fact you believe anything that he says, at all (including his Duke law school ranking), is fricking priceless.

not to be a dick, but one of my law professors was in his class and he was not top 10. ask anybody in law school: everyone knows who the top 10 are in law school.

what's also telling is he doesn't claim it in his achievements on his website.

The movie was okay. Saw it on TMC the other night. Loosely followed the books stories. Acting was so-so, but it was funny for what it was.

Seeing the diahrea scene in the hotel lobby was pretty sick, oh and his quest for the hot midget (though I hope the irl midget was hotter than the actress)

My buddy read the book not to long ago and was telling me all about it and how it was one of the funniest books ever. So he proceeds to tell me the diarrhea scene, and all I could think was yeeeeeah I'm calling bs on this one.

I laughed my arse off reading that book. The movie did not live up to my expectations, but thought it was funny anyway.

Movie sucked. Dudes "I'm an inteligent smart arse whose humor is above your comprehension" routine got tired and stale after the first 30 minutes. Good to see that Traci Lords is still hot though.

I hated this book with a burning passion.

I thought he was a complete and utter dick, and not the funny kind. I hated him.

I made it through about 4 chapters and put it down never to pick it up again.
