BROTHΣRHOOD
 

Has anybody seen the trailer for this movie? As best I can tell, it came out for competitions, will have a limited release in the next month or so and then will go to DVD.

It just gives me a bad, bad feeling.

I never like movies made about greek life. To often it is made by people who aren't greek and gives a terrible portayal of us. However, in movies about presidents and senators and other historical figures they seldom mention that they were greek.

This movie make me nervouse too.

What the shit is this shit? Do they know it spells BROTHSRHOOD?

Read it out loud:
BRO THS Ruh HOOOOOOD.

Probably (1) because contrary to urban legend, most presidents weren't Greek and (2) because it's pretty much irrelevant to a movie about them as president (or senator or whoever).

Had to use the sigma, didn't they?

Jesus Christ. A robbery as part of ritual?

This is going to be chock full of shit.

Yep. :(

Yet they found a way to mention it in W. :(

Because it was relevant to the story. "W" wasn't just about Bush as president -- Bush's experiences as a college student (particularly involving alcohol) was integral to the plot.

If the premise weren't so stupid...


The entire idea of having to rob a convenience store as part of pledgeship kills it for me.

Psh, when did positive portrayals of Greek Life ever make money? :rolleyes:

I am not disagreeing with you. All I am saying is that movies don't usually portray greek life in a positive way.

TRUE!!!! lol

Yeah, well what would be entertaining about that? :o

Now I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight because I'll be busy trying to think of a movie that does portray Greek life positively.

Agreed. I was stuck doing it now. LOLI can't think of an idea that I would watch other than maybe a "step up" style movie

I'd argue the show Greek does a pretty good job of balancing out bad/good...I tell people honestly in many respects it isn't far off base from my undergrad experience.

There are so many good things about Greek...Beaver :D

Beaver Fever is extremely contagious ;)

Hehe. Amen to that.

Animal House? Van Wilder? Delta Delta Die? There are a plethora of options showing us as wholesome adults lol

Y'all are killing me today lol

What can I say? Beaver brings out the best in me :o

Hey, not at fault for the poor choice of nickname.

Drumline, maybe?

:cool:

Want me to spoil it?

So am I the only one that WANTS to see this? :o

Haha, I'm with you.

If you take away the fraternity aspect it would be along the lines of The Town or a lot of standard robbery movies. The nearly straight to DVD part is what makes me feel like the acting won't be on par with the compelling potential of the genre, but I generally like such films.
