"Eurotrip" what a fun little romp thread!

scott1598 · 06-02-04, 06:22 PM

Let me say that I quite enjoyed this movie a lot more than I thought I would. It was a lot less mindless than I thought it was gonna be. Had some depth and heart, not that much, but not just slapsticky. As peeps have said very "Road Trip" py!

Good characters. Michelle Trachtenberg surprised the hell out of me. She annoyed me as all hell on Buffy, but was quite the little comedic vixen here, though she did play similar to Buffy character. Otherwise, decent movie with great cameos

Spoiler:

and kept it original enough and fresh enough to be not quite like ALL the rest...

Anyone else...

I'd like a fun little romp with Michelle.

Saw it for the first time last night, it was what I expected it to be. It was funny, it definitely will be worth several repeat viewings.

I thought this movie was awesome! Got drunk with my cuz and laughed our asses off watching this movie. That part with the "Nazi Kid" was just insane! Nearly pissed my pants.

Your first post said "Anyone Else?"...They pointed you in the direction of more opinions. How about a 'thanks'. You are discussing the movie, not the DVD.

I saw it in the theater and liked it. It's a diverting 90 minutes.

Vinny Jones as the Manchester United football hooligan was hillarious. When he got to france and insisted on still driving on "the english" side of the road.

Amel · 06-03-04, 02:54 PM

How much screen time does Kristin Kreuk get?

scott1598 · 06-03-04, 02:59 PM

not too much, but what she is in is def. worth it!!! let's just say she can girate like the best of em!

That was my favorite part too

I agree it was a fun movie

I have only 2 questions to ask:

Is it more or less as funny as Old School?

Is there more or less nudity than in Old School?

Pants · 06-03-04, 05:23 PM

It's way better than Old School...oh woops I mean Old School. I hated Old School

The other very funny part is when they get to "Eastern Europe" and the guy has a Yugo painted like the General Lee, all his knowledge is based on '80s American pop-culture (Miami Weis), and he remarks, "It's a good thing you didn't come here in the winter...it can get a little depressing". Having been tortured by too many of the recent eastern bloc deppression flix, like Lilya-4-Ever, I found that very funny.

matome · 06-03-04, 07:43 PM

Way funnier than Old School and more nudity.

Much funnier than Old School.

Much more nudity than Old School (female and male).

MrX · 06-03-04, 09:49 PM

I also thought it was funnier than Old School

cliffzig · 06-03-04, 10:12 PM

Nudity wise, a bit too much schlong.

dgmayor · 06-04-04, 08:05 AM

I'll go the other way on this one. Old School was much funnier IMO, but I'm a big fan of the Luke Wilson, Will Ferrell and Vince Vaughn so maybe I'm biased I dunno.

Eurotrip was a fun movie but a single viewing in my opinion. The entire premise bothered me though. She blocks his email account so he goes to Europe to find her? Has he not heard of Hotmail, Yahoo, etc etc to just make a different account and email her again?

Who has only 1 email address anyways!

I know, I kept overhearing conversations people in line say "Should we see The Passion or Eurotrip? I just can't decide...".

Oh, good lord. It's NOWHERE near as funny as Old School. Not even in the same league. Not even close.

As for the nudity ... there's more.

I saw it for the first time last night. I was hoping it'd be on a par with Road Trip, but I don't think it is. The gags were far more forced and there wasn't any real natural flow to it. It had some solid laughs. The whole recurring song thing was funny. The Cooper character had his moments, but he was hit or miss. Half of what he said made me laugh, the other half made me feel embarassed for the actor and the writer.

If, in terms of stupid comedy (I mean that in a good way), if Old School was a 9.5, Road Trip would be about a 6.5 and Eurotrip about a 4.5. None of them match the best stupid comedy of all time though. The Jerk still rules.

Are you people on crack? You're saying Eurotrip was funnier than Old School? Was there another version out there I didn't see?
