Someone Has Clearly Fast-Tracked Tucker Max's I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell For The Worst Movie Of All Time

In case you don't know who Tucker Max is (lucky!), he's some shithead blogger who blogged about what a shithead he was and then turned that into a book and now they've turned that into a movie, and holy shit, you guys, I hope you brought your cyanide capsules because I'm not sure how we're going to get out of this one! The enemy is all around us!

What is this? This is a movie? This is not a movie. It's like they swept up The Hangover's cutting room floor, Tucker Max jerked off onto it, and then dropped it into a vat of Who Framed Roger Rabbit? "Dip." (No offense to The Hangover.) My apologies to Driven and Pay It Forward and Bicentennial Man. You are all wonderful masterpieces in this new world order. (Elizabethtown is still a piece of shit.)

This quote from Tucker Max, via Gawker, is hilarious:

Yes, the tickets are only $10. I know we could have charged $20 or even $30, but we decided that if the point of this is to reach out to fans and experience the movie with them, then we should make the price as low as possible to include as many as possible.

His Gwyneth Paltrow impersonation is priceless! Not to be all Professor of Movie Ticket Economics over here, but since when does the guy who wrote the blog that the movie is based on determine the price of movie tickets? If that was the case, then they should charge whatever the final budget of this movie's production was for each ticket (upwards of $400!), that way when Tucker Max's mom goes to see it (alone, Tucker Max's father wanted to take a nap instead), they will at least recoup their losses. Their losses, not ours. Our losses are immeasurable.

We're gonna need a bigger one of these:

Maybe instead of water we can put bullets in this thing?

what's the point of tucker max? I thought, maybe, once we elected Obama, the director would go "Shut it Down!" and Tucker Max would think, quietly, that in this world where better things could happen there was no need for the lowest common stereotype available for frat boys who like to be sexist racist assholes, and he would say "Dear world, I am sorry." but maybe I didn't want it hard enough.

I am torn here. Part of my wants to vomit because this looks so bad. Part of me wants to complain that they strayed to much from the book, but that would mean admitting that I read the book. Part of me wants to tell the Professor that Tucker Max was making a silly joke about ticket prices and wasn't serious. Part of me knows that the Professor was also making a silly joke and wasn't serious.

Actually Tucker's been pretty clear on his blog that they only put around 5% of the jokes that are in the movie in the trailer. The funniest jokes are also the dirtiest, so they wouldn't be allowed in the green-band trailer, and the movie staff wants to keep the movie fresh rather than spoiling the best parts of the movie for all the fans months before it opens like every other comedy these days.

Tucker Max spoke at my school and bitched onstage about getting less money for his appearance than Spike Lee had a week earlier. When asked what his parents think of his "work," he said, "well I'm making more than my father ever did so I don't really give a shit what he thinks and if he complains I tell him to shut the fuck up." He closed it by asking the girls who wanted to sleep with him to meet him in the hallway, but ONLY if they had ID's proving they were 18. NO EXCEPTIONS! So yeah, by far the worst, but of course he got a standing ovation.

I'm glad Tucker Max is classy enough to ask that his women must be 18, considering, you know, the fact that he's 34 years old. Because that's a perfectly reasonable age to hit on high school seniors (for reference, I believe Matthew McConaughey's character in Dazed and Confused is supposed to be in his mid TWENTIES).

Blue Devil doesn't go to duke. I graduated from there last year, so I'll call bullshit on him.

1) Tucker is not god on Duke's campus. He has a lot of fans, a lot of people say he's full of shit but people don't dedicate kegs to him like he's some kind of god. I've never actually heard of anyone dedicating a keg to anyone, but maybe that's just the people I drink with.
2) Kegs have been banned on campus since Nan Keohane was president, with some exceptions (none of which are be relevant in this context). (Off-campus maybe, but those are always loud and crowded and if kegs are being used, people are lined up at it so nobody gives a shit about "dedicating a keg")
3) His book is not on display in the library. I spent a huge amount of time there last semester, there are lots of interesting and academically relevant books written by less infamous alumni in the section in the front of Perkins, which they display. No duke-employed (or self-respecting...) librarian would choose to display that to represent Duke. I could have called bullshit on that even if I didn't go to Duke, that's fucking retarded.

I'm biased since I'm a Tucker fan (though I freely admit the trailer does look god-awful), but Blue Devil is full of shit.

Thanks for the lesson on boring shit about Duke, but "Tucker Max" went to the University of Chicago before Duke's law school.

Maybe if you were a better judge of character, you wouldn't befriend people who rip you off.

He didn't think he could charge for regular movie prices, and he wasn't making a "silly joke" either.That price is for his premiere tour being held in independent theatres before the actual release of the movie. It also includes a lot of extras thrown in and for 50 cents more than at a regular theatre it seems like an acceptable price.

The ticket pricing that Tucker Max was talking about was for the premiere tour before the movie opens, not the ticket prices at theatres. You really should do some research before you insult someone to get your facts straight...

The ticket price mentioned in your article is for the premieres, not for the actual movie release. There will be a premiere tour before the actual release. Just thought someone should clear that up.

Even though this means I'm a sociopath who needs to be killed, I am a Tucker fan. I think he is funny. How come nobody ever points out the times he humiliates himself in his writing? I firmly believe that 90% of his critics have read maybe two of his stories. Max.

Hey, like most Tucker Max fans, I can't take the time to read the other comments because I'm performing fellatio on him at this very minute, but I'm close enough with my free left hand to reach the keyboard and correct your error - it's the price of tickets for the premiere tour.

The Gawker quote is taken out of context. It's taken from his blog where he talks about what he plans to charge for the ultra-cool guy "Movie Opening plus Q&A" tour for the movie taking place at colleges across the nation. He wasn't talking about every movie theater in the country. Personally, I think the movie has straight to DVD written all over it.

Actually Tucker's been pretty clear on his blog that they only put around 5% of the jokes that are in the movie in the trailer. The funniest jokes are also the dirtiest, so they wouldn't be allowed in the green-band trailer, and the movie staff wants to keep the movie fresh rather than spoiling the best parts of the movie for all the fans months before it opens like every other comedy these days.

Holy crap everyone, get your heads out of your asses. This movie is going to be big. Bigger than anything we've seen in a while. Tucker Max is going to become a huge celebrity after this thing hits the big screens. The trailer for the movie is very tame, because as Tucker himself said, he did NOT want to give away any jokes in the trailer. If you could all put down your goddamn need for everything to be politically correct and live a little, you would realize that Tucker Max is a genius, and his movie will be a ridiculously big hit.

I'm not a frat boy. I don't use axe. I don't read Maxim. I respect women and people of other races and I'm personally overweight. Even I am able to appreciate the (incredible) humor of this book. And more than that, I can't wait until the movie comes out. I've been keeping a tally of the days until it comes out since the trailer came out. It drives me crazy that so many people are SO bothered by this movie. You need to get off your pedestals, get over yourselves and the GIANT chips you keep on your shoulders, and learn how to recgonize humor whether you find it funny or not. You're no less prejudiced than the worst of Tucker Max with the way you've been stereotyping his fans. Hypocritical assholes.
