A loyal FilmDrunkard who claims to have been dragged to College the movie this weekend posted his review on Wikipedia (screencap at left). I don’t know what he has against Arby’s, but his assessment of the movie was in line with both critics and audiences. College debuted at number 15, earning only $2 million.
Meanwhile, Disaster Movie and Babylon A.D. also opened this weekend, and the three movies combined are tracking 18% on RottenTomatoes. That was mostly a result of College‘s 14% recommended rating (Babylon A.D. was 4%, Disaster Movie 0%), which came from two positive reviews out of 14. Of those two, here’s what the one who also saw Disaster Movie had to say about it:
For the first time, the mere thought of imminent death seemed like a sweet, luxurious respite in comparison to the untold-in-number miseries being endured in that theater. Suddenly I was transformed, no longer afraid of my ultimate fate. For that (and only that), “Disaster Movie” deserves my gratitude.
And the business it did wasn’t any better, earning $5.7 million for seventh place. At this rate, it may not earn back its $20 million dollar budget, so perhaps this will be the last time the world has to suffer an Aaron Seltzer-Jason Friedberg movie. The ball’s in your court now, God.


Too wordy to have been me.
Let me check with Glen and Zog… Nope, t’weren’t any of us…
this sounded like erswi up until it used the word “rules”. that and the fact that this person actually entered the theater showing this movie on purpose.
The key to figuring it out may be figuring out what the hell Hadar Ton is.
i went to see college this weekend, but in my defense i went with big boobed girls. mercy street guys.

Whoa, whoa, whoa… past and present? Someone’s fucking greedy.
And, seriously, I get excited when my Arby’s day rolls around.
I can’t even believe Disaster movie even made that much, that’s a pretty shocking indictment of American society.
Also if you’re going to mention filmdrunk surely make it relevent to what you’re writing not just a random shout out so you can get on the site….
Actually where were you this weekend Vance?
Has anyone else read the plot synopsis on Wikipedia for this movie? I think they lifted it from a Republican baby name book.
SHE’S MY FB FRIENd NOW!
It must have been a FDer if they said there are hundreds of things they would rather have done than see that movie then only listed ten.
Going off the caps lock malfunction i’m gonna go ahead and say Ken Shamrock was the FD champion.
The person misspelled Ashlee Simpson’s name and didn’t follow it up with “ASHLEE, that is, because I’m a fucking idiot” so it’s not me.
The author obviously has not see the New Filmdrunk.
at no point did he/she yell New Up!
(new up btk)
I love Arby’s even if the beef and cheddar reminds me of my lovely ex’s vagina.
