Sneak Preview
On Wednesday night, a sneak preview and movie release party were held for National Lampoon's Van Wilder in LA. The film is about a cash-strapped college party boy (Ryan Reynolds) who decides to make money with his party-planning skills. It was da bomb. As with most projects associated with National Lampoon, good taste was not a big concern (My favorite item of all time from the magazine was a Volkswagon ad parody that showed a VW Bug floating in the ocean with the caption, "Ted Kennedy would be president if he drove a Volkswagon"). The film had many funny scenes (as well as many misses) though I thought that most of the gags involving bodily fluids were gross, not funny. Overall, I give Van Wilder three out of five stars.
