At a party a couple weeks ago I got to talk to Dan Callahan, an actor who wrote wrote a film called College, which was originally scheduled to be released last month. I’m not entirely sure what happened, but you can be sure it was one of those Hollywood situations where somehow the film went from being distributed by Lionsgate to becoming an MGM release. The release date changed to August 29th, and now they’ve released a new poster (via: cinematical). It’s pretty much the same design as the old poster, but instead of white lettering on an orange background, we now have orange lettering on a white background.
The story follows three high school seniors who visit a local college campus as prospective freshman for a weekend of wild antics. Callahan explained that the film is like SuperBad but less smart and more vulgar, a throwback to the great raunchy teen comedies of my youth like Porky’s. Although it sounds more like PCU or Revenge of the Nerds (not that that’s a bad thing). I’m all for more raunchy teen comedies, especially if they’re fun.
Discuss:Â Should Hollywood make more or less raunchy teen comedies?

Hollywood will always need more new films about Binge drinking and blow jobs.

Might as well make more. People will watch them.

This poster would work better if it said “weekends.”

Hollywood should make more of these, and not straight to dvd ones, with horrible horrible plots or no plots.

@ hunter…
It would be more convincing if it said… “just making room for more beer.”

Or..
“Grape and grain..never again.”
or
” I found my keys!”
or
“Did I eat corn today?”
or
” Ecstasy always makes me so thirsty!”

More/Less or More/Fewer? not sure about what you mean. “Less Raunchy movies” as in make the same number of teen raunch-fests but just tone down the raunchiness or “fewer Raunchy movies” as in make not so many of them?
IMO, the Apatow ones have been good (ok, so only SUPERBAD was a “teen” one but they all have this raunchy-edge to them). I’m guessing that the fad will hit critical mass very very quickly, just like the 90s teen movies did and the 80s teen movies did…

the world will always need more unbearable movies about semen in beer, pie f*ckers, penises caught in zippers and painful ballsack jokes. (insert sarcasm here)

The problem is I haven’t found one that was better than Animal House.
And I’m sure the advertisers will call this one, “The Animal House for ‘this’ generation” just like the others.

Something about that poster that reminds me of my studies… :) Anyways, I still remember “Animal House” as one of the best films ever - and I’m kinda’ doubtful that this will be as good…

If it’s anything like Waiting then it should be good fun. Not go to the theater good fun but watch over and over again with your best sidekick, Mr. Bong, awaiting an explanation of ‘the goat’ good fun.
