Table of Contents
Introduction
Movies are so much better with booze.
Libations and cinema come together in Lights Camera Booze, where youll find drinking games for all your favorite movies in one awesome place (this book, duh).
Featuring 33 movies released throughout the past four decades (hey, just like a fine wine, the movies from 1975 get better with age!), Lights Camera Booze will transform any regular ol movie night into a superfun partybut dont blame us if parts of the magical evening become a little hazy.
Flip through the book and youll find a variety of movies for all kinds of cinema tastes. Weve got movies you loved from your childhood or teenage years (The Goonies, The Princess Bride, Scream), instant classics of the last decade (Mean Girls, Anchorman, Magic Mike), and the flicks you can watch over and over and over again (Fight Club, Office Space, Legally Blonde).
Each movie drinking game consists of five elements:
1. A movie-themed suggested cocktail (with recipe) to imbibe during the game
2. Two pages of drinking game rules with illustrations
3. Jaw-dropping trivia
4. Movie-related questions to ask your friends post-movie watching (youll learn new secrets about your pals!)
5. And a final challenge to see who can best hold their liquor!
Take a look through the book and pick which movie youll screen for your friends. Be sure to read through the whole game prior to the party, since some games require props for the final challenge. Youll also need to know what booze and ingredients to pick up for the cocktails.
Before you watch the movie, go over the drinking game rules with everyone. When its time to drink based on the rules provided, only take sipsdo not chug your drink! We repeat, do not chug your drink. You can also divide the rules among you and your friends. Split into two teams, with each team assigned to only the even or odd numbered rules. Or assign each player one or two rules, and they will only sippy-sip to those.
The book is intended to lie flat on your coffee table and the rules are drawn big enough to see from most angles. Plus, itll give you a chance to glance down if you happen to forget a few.
We also suggest which rules to omit if youre a light drinker. Getting drunk with your friends is fun. Becoming the asshole who cant take care of themselves and doesnt know when to stop drinking is not fun. Just a friendly reminder from your drinking game goddesses.
Bottoms up!
Theres nothing quite like your first time. Its just so awkward! But no matter how bad, weird, or short it was, you always want to do it again. And is there anything more hilarious than a group of high school boys with raging hormones making a pact to lose their V-cards by prom night?
American Pie was one of the first movies to take the high school comedy to a new level of raunch, gross-out humor, and embarrassing sexcapades. Take Jimbo (Jason Biggs), who gets caught masturbating by his parents, busts a nut too quickly (twice! And while its being broadcast across the web!), and ends up getting used for sex on prom nightwhich actually is kind of cool.
American Pie lets you laugh (and drink!) at other peoples sexual misfortunes, while also allowing you to pretend these embarrassing moments have never happened to you.
Note:If youre a light drinker, skip rules 12 and 18.
DRINK OF THE GAME
KEG O BEER
A pony keg serves approximately 60 (16-ounce) beers. A regular keg serves about 125 (16-ounce) beers. Purchase accordingly. And make sure youre drinking a jizz-free beer.
Put the keg on ice. Tap it. Pump it. Pour into a red Solo cup. Drink. Repeat.
TRIVIA
SAUSAGE FEST
What did the crew cook, stick on a pencil, wrap in aluminum foil, and then place between Jason Biggss legs? Yup, it was a sausage! To replicate an erection, in fact. And the meat was still warm when it was put in place.
TOO CRUDE, TOO LEWD
It took four edits to get the film an R-rating instead of NC-17.
MS. AMERICAN PIE
The pie Jim violates wasnt actually homemade. It was from Costco.
CERVEZA CON JIZZ
The brewski Stifler drinks is actually beer with egg whites in it, a concoction that would still make us vomit.
QUOTE IT
In the sex scene between Jim and Michelle, Alyson Hannigan ad-libbed the line, Say my name, bitch. Everyone found it hilarious that it was kept in the final cut.
