content: I don't agree with the guy who said people who don't like this movie are straightlaced religious zealots, I don't like this movie and I'm not a straightlaced religious zealot and I'm no prude, In fact two of my favorite movies are Animal House and There's Something About Mary which I personally think are 100 times better than this movie and prudish religious zealots definitely would not like those crass humor movies, I just don't like American Pie because I just think it's not all that funny and it's not very original, it is a clone of all the other Rated "R" crass humor movies that were made before it and an obvious attempt to cash in on the success of There's Something About Mary which kind of regenerated the market for those types of movies not unlike how the successes of When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless In Seattle brought forward a whole crop of romantic comedies!
