Well you need to get to the bottom of that so you can support your soror!

Go see it.. to each is your own, but please just keep in mind your money is contributing to the stereotypes SOME people have about our Greek Community.

So what about this movie is soooooo different about the other movies, TV shows, documentaries, etc that "make fun" of Greeks? Just because none of the other movies supposedly had any relation to ZTA?

No everyone agrees with you! Get over it. And yes, my money will go towards this movie.

3. Is it really our community...really?

yep it should be.. we should have each other's backs. but apparently not in your eyes.
Greek unity -> hmmm what's that???


sorrrrrry if I was raised with morals which teach putting other people down is wrong.. especially when segregating one group. It's called respect. But I guess you wouldn't know what that means either.

I'm not preaching. I'm defending and standing up for what my sorority's values. What does it matter which letters I wear? I believe, just as our creed states, devotion to the right, the good, and the true. You shouldn't have to be a ZTA in order to want and incorporate these ideals in your life.

How long have you been a Zeta Tau Alpha? And yes, it does matter, because when I ask you where YOU were when [insert black Greek issue] happened, it will be helpful to know if you were even born.

That situationally convenient "we're all in the same gang" crap is annoying.

Just sayin'.

Yes and we are once again reminded of how rockin' this movie will be. Each commercial gets funniererererer and funniererererer!!!!! The first to create a thread after they see it gets a Scooby Snack!!!

Please try to respect our opinions and individual values which we uphold in our Greek community.

Maybe when you have more than 16 posts, you'll have a better sense of how threads on GC usually go all over the place and how the post you're complaining about wasn't at all out of place on this thread. Maybe you'll rein in the preachy a little, too.

I'm interested how anyone can state that a movie that hasn't been released yet "is absolutely ridiculous and portrays Greek Life in a negative manner." I understand the sensitivity that many ZTAs have about the movie, but until you've seen it, you're only predicting that it portrays Greek life in a negative manner. We've been through this already a year ago, with ABC Family's "GRSSK." Before it actually premiered, you'd have thought the world was coming to an end. After it came out, lots and lots of people ended up liking it.

They are intimidated by her hotness. Her extreme hotness.

Exactly, that is what I was trying to say yesterday or whenever that chick decided to get all huffy-puffy.

Anyways, i'm still excited to see it, i've already told my cousin we'd go see it opening day!! Wooohoooo.

Good Point. Just an FYI.......I heard the the 3rd Season of GREEK is scheduled to air sometime in late September or early October for another 10 more episodes.

Also, this past weekend I went to see the Dark Knight and one of the previews was "The House Bunny Movie." It looked silky in my opinion, but then again this was only a preview so I cannot make real honest decision. I did notice that in one of the scenes, they showed the ZETA house and the letters on the house...Z.E.T.A. were similar colors to that of ZTA. It almost looked like a jade color and grey. To thought that was very surprising.

I'm sorry, I must have missed the memo on Greek Unity against the House Bunny.

When I think of Greek Unity, I think of the outpouring of support from Greeks across the country for the Alabama Gamma Phis and AKLs when they lost one of their own.

When I think of Greek Unity, I think of my sisters at a Nebraska school who opened their home to fraternity brothers displaced by a house fire.

I fail to see why I should really give a damn about what someone thinks of me if I do go see this movie. Don't be slapping the "Greek Unity" label here, missy.

Now, the world don't move to the beat of just one drum,
What might be right for you, may not be right for some.
A man is born, he's a man of means.
Then along come two, they got nothing but their jeans.

But they got, Diff'rent Strokes.
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes.
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.

Everybody's got a special kind of story
Everybody finds a way to shine,
It don't matter that you got not alot
So what,
They'll have theirs, and you'll have yours, and I'll have mine.
And together we'll be fine....

Because it takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.
Yes it does.
It takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.
