Our exit today has us reliving some debaucherous times in college. This week, we are looking at two films about hard partying guys in college who attempt to learn life lessons and change their ways. First, we are going to talk about Sorority Boys, written by Joe Jarvis and Greg Coolidge and directed by Wallace Wolodarsky. Then we will talk about National Lampoon’s Van Wilder, written by Brent Goldberg and David Wagner and directed by Walt Becker.Along the way, we talk a lot about Animal House and its influence on these films.
