I wonder if even more men will fall for that PUA foolery or more men will be laughed at in any sort pick up attempts if the movie is popular and word gets out..

To be honest I think it will be a major fail if released. I can just picture a theatre packed with dudes "peac0cking" and trying to run game at the popcorn counter and DMV their local cinema's female employees. LMAO.

I hope most people realize how creepy PUA is

I always loved the Game and Neil Strauss for setting on the path to improving myself. beyond that though...I think the whol PUA scene is freaking creepy and lame haha

A movie would be totally awesome though.

Those "gurus" only steal people's money. Look at their websites: pictures of models in full makeup gazing at the camera in a challenging way. If there were pictures of normal-looking women it would be much less of a red signal. Just look at this site:

(Also, why are the "Top 15 PUAs of 2012" only guys who sell videos and seminars, not guys who actually are good at picking up women? Isn't that what PUA means?)

And what can you learn from a "guru"-led seminar that you can't learn online for free? Just read the DJ Bible, for God's sake.

I read a guy's review from a PUA seminar. He wrote that most of the guys there were weird and off-putting, not the kind of guys he would ever be friends with. He doubted they would be helped by the tricks taught at the seminar.

A fool and his money are soon parted....

Like all things Hollywood, the movie will probably have very little in common with the real PUA subculture.

Also very true. Nothing I am familiar with - nothing - has been portrayed realistically by Hollywood. For example, the gym, Mensa, psychology, theater, the military, sales, night clubs, organized outdoors activities. It is all made to fit their paradigm. (Like: the bully is always the rich guy, not the poor guy. That's just one thing.) And all given a very-very-very diverse cast in every direction, of course, which barely ever reflects life.

I watched an episode of one of the CSIs, which actually was about the PUA scene. They were looking for a murderer who had been going to PUA seminars. They went to a seminar led by a guy who was clearly a stand-in for Mystery; he wore some makeup, he dressed in a ridiculous outfit and called it "peacocking". Of course that would be the one thing they would show about PUA techniques. (The only way to get me to defend PUA gurus; have Hollywood distort what they are doing.) The faux-Mystery showed a hateful attitude against one of the investigators, who he called an "alpha". Something like: "Alpha guys like you have always been looking down on us betas. But not anymore." Which is completely wrong; PUAing/game/DJ tips, are about BECOMING alphas, not hating them.

The faux-Mystery was hitting on the two female investigators when they went to a night club. He was dressed in his stupid feathered outfit, and he was as sleazy as possible. The women - strong, athletic and tough, of course - resembled alpha males more than he did. When his advances got him nowhere he started badmouthing them.

That's Hollywood for ya.

I wouldn't doubt in the least dudes who attend those seminars are all desperate weirdos who have little to no friends if they don't lose whatever friends they have by getting even stranger.

Yes...Pay me $500-1000 or more dollars for a seminar to "teach" you party tricks to have perfect 10's overlook the fact you don't look and dress your best, don't work out, and ignore the fact you're nothing more than a dancing monkey for sex and have either never had a realtionship or barely if ever had any contact with the opposite sex.

It's almost as if all dudes in PUA or who go to those seminars etc. are completely unaware of the fact of millions upon millions of people all over the world meeting, dating, getting married and so on but think they need some space outfit and clown tricks for the chance to actually meet the opposite sex.

PUA = nothing more than delusional pvssy whipped whack jobs.
