    Tucker, just be a man and admit that the movie was a failure b/c it sucked. Stop trying to make yourself into artiste who made a great work of art that it was bound to be misunderstood by the masses.

    I hate to break it to you Tucker, but outside of a few Frat boys, nobody in Middle America knows who the hell you are.
    Your Coastal types just hate your fucking guts and think you are an unfunny loser.

    @TheUptightMidwesterner: I thought he was a joke that Gawker had created, and that the movie trailer was something they slapped together to make it more real. Slapped together VERY quickly.

    I do understand what he means about Fox Searchlight watering down the movie for mass appeal. However, if by bringing in a "bird" he's using Swingin' Sixties slang to say they'd have a female screenwriter rework the script, that's highly unlikely in the boys' club that is Hollywood. It ain't the chicks harshing on your mellow, Tucker, it's your bros. You can't blame a bird for everything.

    Carbondale (Il) has a large university and they list Jenny McCarthy and Jim Belushi among their most famous alumni. If there ever was a market for Max's movie, you'd think it'd be there.

    Maybe try not calling your movie something that most theaters won't put on the marquee.

    I mean, once you get past the "Tucker Max Presents" problem.

    He has the face of someone who I should want to make out with, even though I'm not partial to blond guys. Regular features, a square jaw, appealing 5 PM shadow, nice hair.

    And yet, I want to punch him instead. Repeatedly, until he squeaks. Perhaps because I can tell just by looking closely that he's not all that clean downtown, or perhaps because I've seen that smirk before, and usually on a Republican cutting funding for HIV treatment.

    Apparently, well-tuned gaydar also comes with an asshole detector. #tuckermax

    Did it ever occur to Tucker that this so-called huge fan was maybe lying to him and just didn't want to go see the movie? I think Tucker hasn't realized that his time has passed. He cannot reclaim his glory days. Move on. #tuckermax

    In reply to Tucker Max Has an Explanation
    I market movies for a living. Therefore I can officially diagnose the problem with the film as being three-fold.

    -The film went too wide, too fast. A grassroots campaign doesn't work out to a 140 screen release. It needed to slowly ramp up.

    -He played only to his fanbase, nobody that hasn't read the book has heard of him, and therefore the movie.

    -Tucker Max is a fucknugget, and the only way non-fucknuggets will see his movie is if it features him getting repeatedly sodomized by a subway turnstile. #tuckermax
