                  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.
