Name that movie
-
Ok I have been trying to remember the name of this movie for a while now and it's really starting to bug me. Here's what I can remember: - the title is the main character's name - the main guy doesn't want to graduate from college - his dad stops giving him money so he creates parties for a fee. - something really disgusting happens between a dog and doughnuts (that get eaten...) - at one of the parties a bunch of little kids get wasted Anyone know the name of this movie?

Van the Man is probably, no matter how stupid it may seem, the Swedish title. Apparently, this movie has a lot of names. In the UK and Australia it's called Van Wilder: Party Liaison (which incidently was the working title in the US). In Germany it was called, Party Animals - wilder geht's nicht which is a "true" translation. I bet the morons at wherever titles are translated in Sweden, couldn't come up with a good Swedish translation. So instead of leaving the title untouched, they just had to do something with it. And the end result is Van the Man. I don't really understand why movie titles have to be translated. :confused: I mean, it's ok if there's a subtitle in Swedish - it'll help people understand what the movie is about. But the main title should be untouched as the rest of the movie isn't dubbed. -- Seraphim Shock. Gold for your ears.

A more economical approach to the celebration of your 19th birthday could be a night out on the town with friends perhaps? Or take the weekend off and ski some? (Are there any fjäll where you live by the way?) Or you could let your family know that you'd like some cool C++/.NET book - then you could spend a couple of days behind the monitor, hacking away with newfound knowledge. :) -- Seraphim Shock.

Yeah, it would be cool to travel somewhere. I also will go travel after "lumpen" and after I've bought my camera. Exactly where I don't know. Rickard Andersson Here is my card, contact me later! UIN: 50302279 Sonork: 37318

14th June, 300 days education. I'll be doing "radiolänkman". Let's see if I like it or not... I know I can get out of there if I so want... :) Rickard Andersson Here is my card, contact me later! UIN: 50302279 Sonork: 37318

You'll probably be in a APC or band waggon in winter, so you won't freeze your butt off. And since you start in June, your "gröntjänst" will be in summer - you won't freeze! Another good thing is that if you're a radio operator, you will probably be serving with lots of superior officers at the end of your service. They will be so busy playing their war games, they'll probably take your position and let you sit off the time somewhere else. And if they're sleeping in the same tents are you, they'll be served good food. Food they'll be too busy to eat because of their infatuation with war games. Food you'll be eating in the end.. :cool: You're lucky. You could've been a poor "infantry monkey", sitting in a tin can all day long, just to jump out of it and launch fake grenades. :) Rickard Andersson18 wrote: Let's see if I like it or not...

(Many have tried and failed during the years). Or you could raise hell by drinking, AWOLing, wet your bed, openly advertise you're gay (they can't by law kick you out for this, but the military can get away with it if they really want), disrespect superior officers, fight with your bunk mates, etc. I.e., be a general (no pun intended) asshole. Of course, you'll probably be fined, and you might have to sit in jail for a month, but you will be kicked out.. :-D -- Seraphim Shock. Gold for your ears.
