Movie Drinking Games: Swing Vote

Posted by Kevin Carr (kevin@filmschoolrejects.com) on August 1, 2008

It’s an election year, and there’s bound to be some election movies coming down the pike. But do we really need to be remembered of the snafu of Election 2000? Apparently, Kevin Costner thinks so. His new movie Swing Vote is about a beer-drinking, trailer-park-living, fly-fishing redneck whose last-minute ballot becomes the deciding vote in a presidential election.

Wait a minute… did I just say “beer-drinking”? Hell, yeah!

And now, to cover our butts… This game is only for people over the age of 21. Please drink responsibly, and don’t trust the fate of the country to someone named “Bud.”

TAKE A DRINK WHENEVER….
Bud smiles
Someone drinks or eats
A political issue is mentioned
Molly acts wise beyond her years

TAKE A DRINK WHEN YOU SEE…
A camera
A microphone
A television broadcast
Anything that screams “redneck”

TAKE A DRINK WHEN SOMEONE SAYS…
“Bud”
“vote”
“Texico”
“president”

CHUG YOUR DRINK WHENEVER…
Bud casts a vote
