Blah, blah, blah, misogynistic, blah, blah, blah, racy. Whatever.
I had a friend of mine tape it for me last night as I figured that MTV
would never show it again (and more importantly because I don't have a TV 
at school). Since I already knew what it was going to be like I wasn't too
amazed by it. What my friend and his roommates thought was a little more
of a litmus test than I could really be. They obviously loved the nudity
and whatnot but the other thing that struck them was the way it portrayed
getting really drunk. Some of them remarked that it was bringing up
flashbacks of some wild nights. As far as violence toward women, they
laughed at the part where the protagonist kicks the shit out of everyone
in the nightclub. On the whole, they loved it, more for the nudity and
portrayal of (especially) rollicking good times than for any message it may
have been trying to put across (frankly, I doubt there was one).
One more thing: they were pissed that the disclaimer promised full
frontal nudity and the stripper's nether regions were blurred.
