Before the box-office success of Varsity Blues (1999) and the critical acclaim of Election (1999), the MTV cable channel created this raunchy campus comedy, the debut feature from MTV Films, the network's motion-picture production banner. Josh Miller (Tom Everett Scott) is a studious and responsible pre-med student entering college as a freshman. His wild, hard-partying roommate, Cooper Frederickson (Mark-Paul Gosselaar), on the other hand, is a spoiled rich kid who never studies and spends his time getting drunk and ogling coeds. Before long, Cooper's fun-filled lifestyle has corrupted Josh, and both are on the verge of flunking out of school. That's when they discover a little-used codicil in the college's charter stating that any student whose roommate commits suicide will automatically receive straight A's. Since their third roommate has moved in with his girlfriend, Josh and Cooper set about recruiting the most depressed, suicidal classmate they can find. The prime candidate: Cliff (Lochlyn Munro), a mentally unbalanced wild man. Karl Williams, Rovi

Seller's Description:
Jason Segel, Alyson Hannigan, Lochlyn Munro, Poppy Montgomery, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Tom Everett Scott. New. 1998 Run time: 94. Buy with confidence-Satisfaction Guaranteed! Delivery Confirmation included for all orders in the US.
This MTV derivative comedy of 1998 tries to imitate 'Animal House' and 'Heathers' pitting overachiever (Tom Everett Scott) with his delinquent trust-fund freeloader roomie (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) to work to achieve straight-A's through a charter loophole entitling passing grades if a room-mate commits suicide. The movie is dumb humor as they scheme to admit a series of equally odd and disaster prone roomies to their scheme which falls flat. Check out cameos of Alyson Hannigan and Linda Cardellini to their heydays.

Great Movie!
This movie is the funniest movie of all time! The stupid things these two get themselfs into are so unbelievable and that is what makes them funny! All of the cast did an excellent job and they couldn't have been cast any better!
