FINAL UPDATE: AICN / Drafthouse Presentation of BEERFEST with the whole Broken Lizard Crew In-Person!!!
Hey folks, Harry here - this is the public winners - there's the AICN crew, Broken Lizard crew and Alamo Drafthouse crew that will be in attendence too. I tended to favor on this particular outting - larger groups of people - so they could have a designated driver - for ... well, obvious reasons. For those of you that did not make it to the list below - Here's what you need to do. Show up early for the Stand By line. We will fill this theater - and inevitably-- some of those on the list below - will flake out - terrified by being seen as the light weight drinkers that they know in their inadequate hearts to be the case. Whatever the reason - they don't show and you do... you've got a chance at their seat... take it.
Ok - if you made it to the list - CONGRATS - We're gonna have a shitload of fun! You need to be at the theater and in your seat no later than 20 minutes prior to the scheduled showtime. 15 minutes to showtime - those seats not occupied will be taken by the standby line folks. See you folks the night of the 15th. This is gonna be a blast!

Hey folks - Harry here - Monday Evening... Ahem - You can STOP SENDING EMAILS NOW. I've received well over 1700 seat requests for a 200 seat auditorium. I'm in the process of going through those emails and picking the groups and individuals that seem willing to get the most shitfaced for this here... BEERFEST event. There's a great deal of enthusiasm for this event and I have a ton of emails to go through. By tomorrow night - I'll publish the list on this page of names + the number of guests each name is allowed to bring. Best of luck and I wish all of you could get drunk with Broken Lizard and AICN at the Alamo Drafthouse South!
Hey folks - Harry here with another of our fantastic Alamo Drafthouse / AICN events... This time we got a doozy of a good time. We've got the entire BROKEN LIZARD team coming in with Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Paul Soter, Erik Stolhanske and Steve Lemme!!!!
Now I know what you're thinking. "Whose dick do I gotta suck and how much am I gonna have to fork over to attend this here bit of amazement?"
Well - We're gonna make it real simple. You get to get in free. That's right - no charge. And as for the dick... well, there ain't no sucking necessary - but you do just have to send an email to this email address with the subject line "I wanna get drunk with Broken Lizard and AICN!" - and in the body say for how many guests you're wanting to bring.
This screening takes place on August 15th at 9:30pm at the Alamo Drafthouse South Lamar.
We'll have drink specials - but more importantly - we'll be having a contest between AICN and BROKEN LIZARD to see who will be crowned CHAMPIONS OF BEER. And then - it looks like there may be a Bratwurst Eating Contest that will be open to the Audience, AICNers and Broken Lizard. Apparently some fella by the name of Kobayashi just ate 53 brats in 10 minutes. Let's see if any of us can take ol Kobayashi down... I'm betting the Alamo's Lars or Kevin Heffernan can eat 75 in 10 minutes. Of course neither can touch Quint - he's more bratwurst than man... but those of you whats comes to this - you'll see that unspeakable horror your own self.
As soon as this event is full - I'll publish the list here. And let you other folks know the details about a stand-by line. Can't wait!

beer

as it is a no win situation for ANYONE to try to beat that little singularity stomached freak!
-
too soon?
-
Opens September 15th!!!
-
i just want to say, that this thing filmed in Albuquerque,NM, and is set in Berlin. Yeah, the one in Germany. And that, kind sirs, is so brilliant it's almost retarded.
-
Yank's don't know what real beer is! Our beer reigns supreme. American beer is like making love in a canoe... It's fucking close to water.
-
Damn that's clever. I'd ask your permission to steal it, but you're in Australia ... so I don't care. YOINK!

But Artie Lange's Beer League is out on 15th September..Howard Stern Sirius radio listen up people!
-
That's some good ol' Monthy Python right there.
-
...well, except for rolling naked in honey and bits of broken glass while killer bees assault my flesh. Broken Lizard sucks.
-
have fun guys. hey someone take pictures and post them please. fuckers :)
-
It didn't strike me as a straight comedy like Super Troopers at all, and I think it's that expectation which made almost everyone hate it. Like QTN said, it's mostly a faithful 80's-style slasher, with the exception that whenever the opportunity for an outrageous gag popped up, they shamelessly took it. It's uneven and a bit schizophrenic but I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. Scream's problem is that it tried to be cool while "homaging" the genre, and the Scary Movie series is (with the exception of ghost Richard Moll smoking dope) neither funny, respectful or clever.
-
I'm sorry but I cannot support this movie before my main man's movie comes out next month - go see Beer League!!!!
-
hell yeah.
-
And Spacker Dave, Australia boy. Stop taking it in the ass in your canoe and try some of the micro-brews we have in the states. 9,10,12% alc by volume and tasty as hell. I don't judge Australia's beer scene by that Foster's crap, don't judge our beer by the Bud/Miller/Coors corporate piss. Which I'll grant you is water for all intents and purposes.
-
I'll say it again...Broken Lizard sucks.
-
And did I touch a nerve Arche? Cheer up mate, you guys make some great whiskey. I just feel snubbed in this movie seeing as we have such a proud beer drinking tradition and we aren't represented.
-
Meow y'all drink as much beer as possible.
-
I live 3 miles from the Alamo South.
-
I won passes to an advance screening of the film and a chance to get drunk with the Broken Lizard guys after the movie. I can't wait!
-
Good lord, I think there are holes in my brain.
-
Do something like this is the UK one day Harry!! The only way I get to see the Alamo Drafthouse is on Google Earth!
-
Now that's a trio of mens beers!!
-
a few pints o' Wife Beater and I talking down the big white phone. Dont forget a few cans of Tennants Super for a real night out.
-
There's nothing that's less compelling than Broken Lizard. I would rather watch Beautician & the Beast than watch anything Broken Lizard.
-
I'm sorry I have nothing really to say but thank you Jorel214 you made me laugh at that. Broken Lizard has yet to impress me at all and I probably won't see this until it's on dvd. It smells like something Frat boys will watch for years to come though.
-
Harry will not leave the brat eating contest ALIVE!
-
I get really pissed at the shite beer our corporations flood the world with. We've got a great tradition of microbrews here in the states but nobody in the rest of the world knows how great they are because Buttwiser is to busy pushing piss flavored water. I've had this conversation a few too many times in Europe, funny enough with a few Aussies I got into a drinking contest with in Rome (we probebly should of had our stomachs pumped after that night). It ended in a draw with all of us half dead. And your right, any beer drinking contest would HAVE to have some representatives from down under, you guys can push em back.
-
about that update...we had to actually go into detail about being enthused toward getting shitfaced? you gotta be kidding me...i kept it short and to the point, because that's what the rules seemed to be saying with the whole, "send this email with how many people you'd bring" and nothing else. fuck man, if i don't get in now because of that i'll be pissed. i just had a real life fucking Beerfest a week and a half ago, so obviously i'm ready to get shitfaced with the Broken Lizard crew. damnit Harry, if you want people to put more into the body of the email letting you know how willing they are to get shitfaced...say so next time. fuck.
-
You just said send e-mail saying we wanted in. There was NO LEVEL of interest required, but now you are changing that??!?!?! CRAP. I have won contests before, when you asked for stuff, but that is bull. You want us to compete, fine - ask for it. But don't do it afterwards.
I am with you keyser - this is crap.
RonB -
And you better believe that I was ready to go drink for drink with the guys on screen!
-
i wish i knew that i had to give reasons. i was really hoping to surprise my friend with this as a gift since i knew he would go insane if he got to go to this. i had caught the article early and figured that my chances would be good. now i guess i just have to hope
-
i submitted my e-mail (while drunk as fuck, mind you) almost as soon as this thing went live...and now because i limited my e-mail to my name and the number of people (just me, willing to fly solo from 4 hours away just to go get drunk and then drive back the next morning for work hopefully hungover as all hell) i'm apparently not going to get in. awesome.
-
Let us know in advance you are going to be cherry picking the guest list next time! I would have been glad to give dozens of reasons I want to go to this. Basically this means Harry is only going to bring in his friends and girls.
-
You should make it the first 100 people who sent you an email, and each of those people get to bring 1 guest. Sound fair to everyone?
-
I'LL GET DRUNK! I figured that was just ASSUMED, which is why I didn't write an essay on the subject when I submitted my email (within an hour of the initial post going up). I live and work in Austin, OF COURSE I want to get BLASTED with Broken Lizard!
-TornSack -
Submitted the simple e-mail not knowing I was screwing myself over is going to suck, my friend. I kept it short b/c I figured you'd be going through a shit-ton of mail. Next time I'll just spam your ass with the wikipedia entry on whatever topic comes up here.
-
didnt mention that you had to do anything special when signing up...
-
interesting... here is the page that listed the winners of the monster house screening:
http://nitti.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=23783
pages listing previous screening winners are just as interesting -
who ever heard of taxis and hotel rooms? certainly not what i would have been planning instead of driving drunk... /sarcasm
-
But I thought I'd be polite and only ask for 2. This is disappointing the way this was managed, should have been first come, first served. And you shouldn't let someone bring 10 guests when there are plenty of other people wanting to go to this who took the time to email you separately.
-
Thanks Harry! Thanks for all you do for the Austin film scene too. we are really fortunate to have you to help bring in events like this. I can't count the number of times I've seen you promote a free event that just blows my mind that something like that would happen in our little ole' town.
-
Thanks for be'n a tool and posting a public invite for a party that was clearly intended for your 'friends.' Seekshelter's got it spot on.
And hat's off to the douche who's bringing +10. LAME. Last time I support an AICN event. -
Holy Crud! I never win anything so I had to look 5 times to see if it was really my name on the list! Somehow it relly is. This is going to be insane. Freaking awesome! THANK YOU!
-
well, please mention next time if you have to give reasons rather than follow directions...now i'm off to disappoint my friend with the news.
-
I should have asked for more! Damn. Oh well. Have fun guys!
-
So So dull. It was almost as exciting as paint drying. Its not even in the same ballpark with Scream as far as quality.
-
...by any measure.
-
First of all who the fuck are you to make assumptions about people's drinking habits? How do you know tht the person I was going to bring wasn't a designated driver? And have you never heard of a fucking taxi? What, are you the drinking police now? Secondly I didn't request a huge group of people out of respect for others. I wanted other AICN members to have a chance to go but as it stands tons of people are going who probably aren't even familiar with AICN. So a lot of people who responded right after the post don't get to go because they weren't absurdly greedy. That's fucking backwards, my friend. Have you never heard of first come first serve? At least let people know the "contest" is going to be "judged" ever changing criteria. Thanks for letting me waste time and energy on something I thought I had a reasonable shot at. What a fucking jerk.
-
While I did not get in, my friend did and hence I am going. Can't wait to get fizzuked up.
-
I'd really like hear your response to all of the people on here who feel like they got screwed. I'm pretty sure you could care less but I'd still like to hear the excuse anyway.
-
aicn just happened to commandeer this screening...
-
Hey fuckers I'm the guy who got the most tickets and you know what, you can all SUCK MY BALLS CUZ I'M GETTING DRUNK WITH THE LIZARDS!!! HELLS YEAH!!!
-
You let some jackass get 10 tickets while the rest of us are standing here with our cocks in our hands. I could drink this DOUCHE under the table, and I can WALK home from the Alamo South Lamar. You are such an asshole for giving away tickets to people who asked for 14+. WTF?
-
What are the chances that they would win both??? Any a few people have the same last names...but that might just be luck.
