Holy Crap. "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell" is going to be a movie. Holy Crap.

So, here's the brief story.

A few years ago, I used to listen to the morning show on one of Atlanta's radio stations, 99X. One of their favorite guests on the phone was Tucker Max, a guy who professed to be able to seduce any woman he wanted. He had a blog about it that they liked to talk about.

A few months later, Tucker Max comes back. He said his adventures were now going to be a book, and he was currently working on it. It seemed a publisher had stumbled on his blog, liked it, and commissioned a book from him. Every author's dream, right?

The book came out, and has been a good seller. The title, I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell. The publisher? Kensington.

Now, I read that Tucker Max's tome is going to be a movie.

Every author's dream.

And the man wasn't even an author. Originally.

Holy Crap.

DUH! The Kensington website says August, 2009!

Duh! I forgot what year this was.

And I followed the imdb link. Wow. A Rating of 4.7.

Still, they made a movie out of his book. We can only be so lucky.

^That's a typical reaction. Nevertheless, the book sells.

Looks like the movie tanked, though.

I won't argue any of your points.

I'm merely reporting what happened.

In fact, the success of Tucker Max's book could pave the way for a nonfiction project I have in mind, with the subject matter in the same ballpark.
