New movie-making fun of greeks??

LOL, there's an Alpha Gamma Delta myspace account and it posted the following bulletin encouraging us to watch the movie today:

"The House Bunny" is written by an Alpha Gam -- me! (I went to James Madison University, Class of 88.
) So get your chapters to go see it this weekend! Opening weekend numbers are very important -- if studio heads see that chick flicks open well, they'll make more of them! PS I also wrote 10 Things I Hate About You, Legally Blonde, and She's the Man, so if you liked those -- you'll like this one! Thanks!

I couldn't convince the BF to go see Traveling Pants 2, but maybe I can get him to see this one with me.

I beg to differ. I've seen too much tittage in the ads for this to be considered a "chick flick."

I still find it odd that there isn't a woman by that first, middle, or last name listed as joining in that time frame in our sister database, nor lsited as a notable Alpha Gam.

I have an alleged movie date tonight, maybe we'll see the House Bunny instead of Death Race the Nascar prison movie (kidding, we'll probably see the Mummy because I'm an archaeologist and find it hysterical when Brendan Frasier does it).

The Mummy is good.

I'm jumping into this thread finally. I really want to see the House Bunny. Yes, I'm insane.

Re: the Alpha Gam as a writer, I'm not buying it, but lots and lots of people do have professional names (while still operating under their real names in "real life") for the movie biz, right?

I'm thinking that, if Karen really isn't an Alpha Gam, IHQ would sic' a cease and desist on her. It's been a few years since Legally Blonde came out and was a hit, so if Karen is a member...you'd think she would be a part of the Accomplished Alpha Gams list -- real name and all.

Well maybe they don't know she's been claiming us, and since we put it on GC, now they will? I know if I found some incredible artifact that adjusted the archaeological theories of the populating of North America I'd be the first one to call IHQ to try and get on the Accomplished Alpha Gams list. I'd make sure to even submit a photo of me in a fedora with a whip looking fierce.

Oh and didn't make it to the movies, someone sucks so I had dinner with a sister and then proceeded to have an allergy attack. House Bunny is on my list though, because of this thread I have to see it.

Too bad there are no big squirrels on these boards... <giggling>

If you find some major archeological find, I'll nominate you for the Distinguished Citizen Award

If I win the Mega Millions, will I be an accomplished Alpha Gam?

I'd wait until the Mummy comes out on DVD, totally not worth going to the movies to see it! I thought it was an utter disappointment!

I didn't really wanna see the House Bunny, until we all had this discussion! lol. Now I really wanna see it, hopefully I can convince someone to go w/ me tomorrow!

I liked Traveling Pants 2 but the first one was a *lot* better. At no point in the second movie did I get a sincere sisterly vibe from all four of them at the same time. They just gave each girl her own subplot and threw them together at the end.

The main reason the movies work at all is because America Ferrera and Amber Tamblyn are so damn talented. The scenes in the first one where Carmen and Tibby would totally get on each other's nerves, then come back and love each other to pieces were dead on. As a guy I certainly appreciate Blake Lively but there's also something deeply annoying about her. And the whole Lena / Costas subplot is basically just a Harlequin Romance. It was only interesting to the extent that it was about Lena's journey toward being a woman, and that part got thrown out in the second movie.

But I can watch the first one over and over. It's the best movie about a group of young women that's come out in, I dunno, like forever...
