Judging by the trailer only...


Judging by the trailer only, it seems a more fitting title might have been "(Young, Rich) White People Problems". Of course I'm not ruling out the possibility of it being something more, but if the trailer is any indication of what to expect, I just can't see many people being sympathetic to these characters..

Just watched the trailer and thought the SAME exact thing.

Boy, I can't wait to miss this one...

I was waiting for it to all lead up to where the kid got drunk and killed a bunch of people with his dad's pickup truck

Yeah I just posted in agreement on another thread, am I suppose to feel bad for these young highly privileged children crying over their daddy problems and having too many boyfriends? Let's not forget their "high-quality" weed, not sure I've ever seen that pointed out in a description before just to yet again remind us these people have lots of money(at least that's the idea of it, HQ weed isn't that much more expensive).

Feel me?

Well the flip side would be a movie about poor black kids and their problems... but who wants to see a movie where the biggest problem is where their obama phone charger is.
