Moral of the story:
Always be a party goer, never a party host.

[chicken]

I always saw Project X as a darker version of Superbad.

[Lombzi]

my buddy threw a project x party in 2014. It was wild. Granted he's loaded and has a huge mansion but it was kept to backyard only (his backyard is massive), DJ with speakers everywhere, hired staff serving drinks, security (friend) at the front gate. There ended up being over 1200 people in his backyard, people jumping fences trying to get in. The night ended with 2 helicopters over his backyard, 10 cop cars, and all of us running away into the abyss because we were 17 lmao. Anyways Project X was a huge classic and had everyone amped up after. Bunch of parties got trashed in my area after this. But lets not forget Miles Teller in this film, who would've thought he'd end up where he is now

Crazy how this movie stayed in all our heads for over 10 years now, and we all suddenly have an interest in it all over again

"I didn't make this kid pass out on my floor"
pans over to passed out kid classic

2009-2013. Was the greatest party era. There was barely any home surveillance cameras and parents couldn’t track us like kids get tracked today. We had the internet and texting to make parties huge. 50 percent of kids had adderall prescriptions. “LMFAO” was the most popular music during that time. Also the housing market just crashed. So there was plenty of abandoned houses to throw huge parties in.

Cried laughing at this. The way the camera pans over at this poor kid passed tf out, then immediately cuts right back to the interview like it never happened. It is like something out of a comedy movie, lmao

[MPPG]

They most definitely got the idea for Project X from that teen in Australia. Hollywood is so creatively bankrupt, they'd never admit to being inspired by true events.

Myself and 3 of the homies were cast as background actors for this film in 2011; at the time we had all just turned 21 within the last 4-5 months of each other. Pay was whatever, it was Cali minimum wage at the time which was $8 but it was paid cash at the end of the day and you legit received the full $8. Seeing you do this video just gave me nostalgia like no other bro lmao It was one wild time of movie set, and the way the actors described the director wanting to keep it "authentic/real" was 100% accurate. I'm not gonna say that the movies higher ups wanted all the 21-25 year old's actually drunk on the sets, but they would literally scream on megaphones at the end of each day "make sure to come back tomorrow AS PREPARED AS YOU NEED TO BE!" LOL
I'd say 60% of us were drinking booze on set with cheap pocket shots and the non-alcoholic drinks the studio provided. It sure made filming go by quick lol; great video Patrick!

Project X literally defined an entire generation of people

[Timbmusicaaa]

In september 2012, a teenage girl from the Dutch city called Haren, hosted a party, she was expecting a few people, she set it on public instead of private, 16.000 people were invited, it started peacefully, but then it became violent, rioting happened, 34 people got arrested, people were fighting with the police as well

[gothgirlfriend]

The pan to the dude passed out on the floor absolutely killed me

[CZsWorld]

"They casted no name actors."
I literally only saw this movie because Dax was in it

[Bigdaddyweese]

I had a party that my parents were out of town. People showed up that I had no idea who they were. Beer cans, cups everywhere. Tire marks all through the snow in my field. Hell even found a blunt in my Christmas tree. Car ran off into a ditch leaving that we had to push out before anyone called the cops. Had to have been over a 100 people when it was only supposed to be a few people. This was December of 1996. Best party I ever had.

[xSaintxSmithx]

The movie was absolutely based off Corey, they just didn't wanna pay him. Look at the actress's reactions. They knew it was about him, they're clearly scrambling for an answer.

[rad-]

As a 27 year old I can't think of anything worse then random people in my house getting messed up 🤣

[LILGHETTI]

Kid cudi and steve aoki's pursuit of happiness remix as the main theme is also insane. 🔥
Considering the meaning of the song 💀

[slptart]

This wasn't reality imitating art... These types of parties were common in the 80s and 90s. We called them house Wreckers, it was either some unpopular kid who's parents were out of town and 30+ people would crash the party or someone who knew they were getting evicted and had already lost their damage deposit.

[yourmother]

When I was 12 I saw this with my mom and dad. I asked them if i could throw a project X party, they said yes if i could make it happen. I was wildly unpopular. it never happened.

They def knew I couldn't make that happen lmao

[Timbo]

Edit: Wow, did not expect so many people to relate to my comment and share there stories. Thanks for the memories, insights, and overall discussion!

Being in high school when this movie came out, the amount of times people tried to have a “project x” type party and how much absurd shit would happen (kids getting hurt and parents getting sued or arrested for having minors drinking, trashing nice houses, and anything else you can think of) was just a wild time. OG 4loko either just stopped selling or they still were around that time 😂
