Quirky and very very funny

I did a fake casting of a movie when I was in college. It totally worked. I met tons of girls. I'm freaked out someone made a movie about it. I'm sure others have done this too. I wonder if the writer-director Martin Guigui lived it...Diedrich Bader is hilarious! "Cattle Call" is the funniest National Lampoon film I have seen since "Van Wilder". I heard they're making a sequel. I'd love to sneak onto that set. Chelsea Handler is a good actress. She should do more films. The actress Jenny Molen that played Marina is awesome. I heard she married Jason Biggs recently. I hope she's in the sequel. She was the best thing about "Cattle Call". There are a few very funny memorable scenes. One that I keep remembering is when the character of Sherman Oaks (played by Andrew Katos) thinks he is playing a great guitar solo, but he sucks and then Chelsea Handler still wants to have sex with him. The film reminds me of "Spinal Tap" sometimes. I rented if from Netflix and then I bought it so I can relive it, my past that is...
