Seen on: September 19, 2009

The players: Director: Bob Gosse, Writers: Tucker Max, Nils Parker, Cast: Matt Czuchry, Jesse Bradford, Geoff Stults, Keri Lynn Pratt

Facts of interest: Based on Tucker Max's best seller.

The plot: The film follows Tucker Max as he and his buddies visit a strip club to launch a friend's bachelor party.

Our thoughts: Up until now, I have never seen a film in which the protagonist realizes he’s an asshole after uncontrollably shitting his pants in the middle of a hotel lobby. That’s exactly what happens in Bob Gosse’s “I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell,” which is based on Tucker Max’s hilarious, yet downright vulgar best seller.

I still don't know if it was a good idea to bring Tucker Max's vulgar best seller "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell" to the big screen, but I admit I really enjoyed reading the book. A new red band trailer for the comedy has debuted online, and you can check it out after the jump.

I admit I had a good time reading Tucker Max's filthy and ridiculously vulgar best seller "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell," but to be honest, I wish he would've left it at that without turning it into a movie.

But hey, many cinemagoers out there are in love with ultra-gross comedies full of dirty talk and offensive sex jokes, and for those who don't like to read, they will soon be able to follow some of Tucker's adventures on the big screen.

The book essentially focused on a whole series of stories Tucker experience during the past years. Some are nastier than others, but most of them feature tons alcohol, hot chicks, wild sex acts and fat girls.

A first trailer for the Bob Gosse-directed film has debuted online, and while I did laugh a lot while reading the book, this footage really failed to impress me.
