Thoughts on House Bunny - Villains are "Phi Mu"

[1Hand1Heart]

Okay-girls, I saw the movie. Let me just say-it wasn't that bad. I laughed at the inaccuracies of the film so, if you wanted to see it and don't want it ruined for you-close your eyes because here it comes...

Okay, so you know the general idea is that the girls of Zeta are going to lose their house. One thing I thought that was funny and inaccurate was how the Phi Iota Mus (which were in fact called Phi Iota Mus-and they even wore letters with all three on) picked up the Zeta bids when the Zeta girl, Lilly, was distracted by a hot guy. They threw her bids out and Lilly was left with nothing but, she was told by the man at the post office window that her bids were sent out when someone picked them up for her. Surprise-no one comes!

1.) I have never heard of mailing out bids-but, that's not how they do it at a Big Ten university, I guess.

2.) Since Lilly could later state it was one of the Phi Iota Mu girls-that would be against Panhellneic and they could be fined....the end.

3.) At the end of the movie when Shelly asks for 30 new pledges at the meeting where they are going to foreclose on the Zeta house, 30 girls stand up and say, "I wanna' be a Zeta!" It does not work like that...I'm sorry!

4.) Of course, when they need the LAST pledge for a total of 30 girls or they will be shut down because only 29 raised their hand....the 1 Phi Iota Mu girl says, "I'm sick of Phi Iota Mu and how you treat me...I wanna' be a Zeta!"....This would CLEARLY never happen in an NPC. To top that off-if the dean was going to shut down the house because they needed 30 pledges and they could only come up with 29 after having a house of 7 girls total, I doubt he would say..."Sorry-you need 30!"

I laughed at it and explained to my boyfriend why it was too funny. Think about the logic. Either way-it was cute and I might buy the movie later but, anything is better than the Omega Moos from Revenge of the Nerds...Now, that's a movie I would make an issue of because as soon as I told my aunt and a few of her friends what sorority I joined she said, "Omega Moos? Like from Revenge of the Nerds?" Ugh-NO!
