Get the trailer action after the cut. It’s… just… you’ll see.
So what I gleaned from the trailer for Franco’s latest flick, Undergrads, is that, basically, the movie is about vapid, douchey humans (both male and female) who drink, paint themselves and say generally meaningless words to each other. And when I say meaningless, I mean a really deep-seeded, intrinsic nothingness and insignificance. It appears, at least to me, the our dearest James was trying to create a piece of social commentary, a look into how terribly apathetic our collegiate youth of today is to anything remotely profound. Which, you know, I get. Totally. Completely.
But the trailer, man? It doesn’t mean anything. At all. It looks like an episode of True Life gone uninteresting. And True Life is never uninteresting. And it kind of looks like at least 85 percent of it was shot on a sorority girl’s digital camera. I’m hoping the actual film is at least a little more interesting, because if the juiciest tidbit I get is the some girl doesn’t understand that Paley (who seems to be the king of all bros) is the inventor of PacMan and games in general, I’m going to be pretty upset. Watch it for yourself. [via Buzzfeed]
What do you Lovelies think? Would you watch Undergrads?

I may watch it. I mean I love the man and I am curious. I also want to see how he views undergrads. I have a feeling this film may play a little on stereotypes which bothers me. But other than that I am eagerly awaiting his film.

Its not letting me watch the video, but on a sidenote, how many trailers do make sense these days? Whenever I go to the movies or even sometimes on TV, I watch a trailer (especially in the case of what I believe are action movies) and after its over I think, “I have no clue what that movie is supposed to be about.”
Sorry about the tangent.
